Homosexuality in the View of a Christian

[Rainbow]

Quote by: Winter wind why can't a couple of the same gender do just as well ?

A particular gender carries its own and unique characteristic(s).
(2 opposite genders) combined together create that requirement and/or source a child needs in a process of upbringing.

Quote by: Winter wind Also banned by the bible. Touching the skin of a pig is unclean and is a sin (Leviticus 11:7). So you aren't allowed to play rugby or even eat pork.

I'm Christian not Jewish Winter.
And its not rugby, its called rugby league or simply league, theres some differences between it and the game known as rugby or its full name rugby union.
It would be like me calling gridiron rugby.
Both sports incidentally branched off from rugby to begin with.
And pigskin is an expression for what gridiron balls were once made of in the early days of the sport, they then went to leather, and then synthetic.
I played rugby league, not gridiron, and as far as I know before we had synthetic footballs, it was only ever leather.

Can't work on Sunday,

A lot of people do that, not just Christians.

can sell your daughter into slavery,

lol, that would be a good option to have as a threat if she didn't clean her room.

Can't plant crops side by side, and you can't wear cloths made from two different threads. I'm going to guess you've broken one of the above laws a couple of times so even you probably don't follow all the rules of the Bible or know all of them.

Their Jewish customs, and may have some logical reason to have existed we don't know about now.
One of their customs was also to make sure there was never any spilled grain on the floor, because it would attract bugs.

None of those things is anywhere near "unknown" -- the Jews didn't eat pork and other foods because non-Kosher foods are filthy by their nature (at least in terms of Jewish metaphysics) and digesting or even touching them corrupts the soul. That Gentiles devoured non-Kosher foods was thought by Ancient Jews to be a contributing factor to their evil. It is worth noting the Ancient Jews were not the only people to emphasize the importance of a certain diet in order to obtain spiritual purity. They considered the stomach the center of health and emotions.

The Jewish-Christians stopped believing in these things because Gentiles wouldn't have bought the faith otherwise -- they liked non-Kosher foods too much, consumption of pork, for example, being an important feature of many cultures under the Roman Empire.

I would normally yell stereotype, but I've got a better idea.

Gay guys have been associated with more feminine traits, so shouldn't that make up for the lack of a woman in the house?

If you use stereotypes, so I can.

Ok, so while your writing off the laws of the old testament, lets add another to the list. The ban on homosexuality. Most of those laws are in the same freaking chapter of the Bible.

Why is homosexuality special? Why do we ignore the ban on those "Jewish" laws, but not homosexuality when they're right next to each other? We should be consistent.

A man and a woman can be taken as a stereotype, individually and equally.
