First of all, there is no such thing as "homophobia." That is a term
concocted by homosexuals in order to try and make those who disagree
with their choice feel shame. It is an emotional manipulation tactic,
like calling someone a "rat" because they do the right thing by pointing
out the wrong that someone else has done. A phobia is an illogical and irrational fear of
something. Nobody jumps up on a chair when a homosexual enters into a
room and shrieks, "Eek! A homosexual!"
Second of all, homosexuals choose to be marginalized, ostracized, and ridiculed by society in the exact the same way that rapists, murderers, and child molesters choose to be marginalized, ostracized, and ridiculed by society. It may be inadvertently, but they still choose it. You can choose to be offended when homosexuality is likened to pedophilia, bestiality, and necrophilia, however, it is a false sense of offense. Homosexuality is like pedophilia, bestiality, and necrophilia. It is an unnatural sexual perversion, whether you like it or not.
Third of all, there is no scientific evidence that people are born homosexual. Homosexuals cite rare cases where, (1) with identical twins, both are homosexual, (2) with identical triplets, all are homosexual, or (3) with identical triplets where one is female and the other two are male (or vice versa), either all are homosexual or just the two of the same gender. This so-called "evidence" is called Stacking the Deck. They cherry-pick their cases in order to try and manipulate the data. In other words, they lie through their teeth, which is not surprising in the least given their character. If we examine the cases correctly and honestly, we will find cases where, (1) with identical twins, only one is homosexual while the other is not, (2) with identical triplets, only one is homosexual while the other two are not, or (3) with identical triplets where one is female and the other two are male (or vice versa), only one of the three is homosexual while the others are not, or one of the two with the same gender is homosexual while the other is not. They all share the same genes, the same DNA, yet the results are completely different. Why? Because nobody is born homosexual; they choose to be homosexual. There is not a shred of scientific evidence that lends any credibility to a proposed and supposed "gay gene." It does not exist!
Fourth of all, the Bible, nature, science, biology, conscience, logic, and common sense all inform us that homosexuality is wrong. It is a perversion of both human and sexual nature. I can love my dog with the greatest love in the world; it doesn't mean I have a relationship with my dog and sleep with my dog. For the record, homosexuality is not seen in nature. When you see another dog mount another dog, he is not penetrating him. He does the same thing he would do if he mounted your leg. Furthermore, even if we did see homosexual tendencies in nature, we, as human beings, do not get our morality from what animals do or do not.
Fifth of all, your false sense of offense at the fact you cannot procreate does not change the facts whatsoever. Regardless of the obstacles that prevent opposite-sex couples from having children, or regardless of their age, the fact is that they can have children together. Homosexuals can never and will never have children together. If you throw all the homosexual men on one island and all the homosexual women on another, they will die out in their own generation without having produced any subsequent progeny. The Genesis account is God's standard for all human beings and relationships. "For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh" (Gen. 2:24; Matt. 19:5; Mark 10:7-8; Eph. 5:31). Jesus re-iterated this, as did Paul, bringing their hearers/readers back to the beginning, and upholding God's standard for all human beings and relationships. You might take note of the fact that Paul said "let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband" (1 Cor. 7:2). On every page of the Bible, it re-affirms God's standard and upholds heterosexuality. There are not only the 9 negative prohibitions against homosexuality in the Bible, but there are thousands of positive affirmations for heterosexuality that, by necessity, prohibit homosexuality, as well. If I love babies, then by necessity I must be against abortion.
Sixth of all, homosexuals are not "oppressed" nor have they had any of their rights stolen from them. Comparing homosexuality to slavery is a false comparison. Homosexuality is not an ethnic minority. Homosexuals have never been bought and sold in America; they have never been denied the right to vote; there are no and have never been gay and straight classrooms; there are no and have never been gay and straight drinking fountains; and they have always had the right to hold property and participate in the political process. Homosexuals have always had the same rights all Americans have had. The same sure cannot be said about African-Americans. The only right they are trying to claim, which is a right that does not belong to them, is the right to marry, which is only permissible between a man and a woman. The reason your mother was able to get your father's pension (or whatever it was) is because that is what women deserve for staying at home with the children and raising them, taking care of the home. You're just trying to abuse the system by manipulating it for your own gain. If you want to talk about who is being oppressed by whom, I suggest you look at the fact that a less than 2% world population of professing homosexuals is telling the other 98% of the world's population what they can and cannot think, believe, and/or do.
Seventh of all, marriage is a divine institution and its parameters were defined very clearly by God Almighty when He created man and woman: "For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh" (Gen. 2:24; Matt. 19:5; Mark 10:7-8; Eph. 5:31), "So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, man cannot separate" (Matt. 19:6). This is the only acceptable form of sexuality and the only acceptable expression of sexuality. The family has been given certain roles; the husband is the head of the home, the wife is to be subject to him, and children are to obey their father and mother. You cannot achieve this "hierarchy" (if you want to call it that) with homosexuals who have adopted children immorally. Essentially, they struggle for the same role. However, what we tend to see is one of them trying to act the part of the other role, demonstrating, yet again, how every couple needs one man and one woman to be complete. Even their sexual acts prove they need one man and one woman.
Eighth of all, the Bible has not been re-interpreted in regard to slavery and women. Comparing the slavery that took place in England and the USA to that of the Bible reveals a sheer canyon of ignorance. In the Old Testament, we find that dignity was afforded to slaves (unlike what would have happened in surrounding nations, which could be likened to England and the USA). When we get to the New Testament, slavery is never said to be wrong. In fact, Paul tells Christian slaves and masters how they need to treat and respond to each other. If it was in fact wrong, it would have been stated as such. For more information in regard to the issue of slavery, see http://bereansdesk.blogspot.com/2012/11/slavery-is-it-wrong.html. For more information in regard to women's roles within the church, see http://bereansdesk.blogspot.com/2013/05/women-pastorswhat-does-bible-say.html, because women are not allowed to be pastors. The church, like family, has been given certain roles to be followed, not because one is better than the other but because that is how God ordained it to be. If you have issues with how God ordained it, then you need to take that up with Him.
Ninth of all, you keep saying, "If we look at it in context" and "If we keep it in context" regarding Leviticus 18 and 20, yet you fail to do precisely this. If you want to see the exact context of Leviticus 18 and 20, I suggest you educate yourself and read http://bereansdesk.blogspot.com/2013/09/leviticus-18-and-20.html. Your interpretations of the passages that prohibit homosexuality say nothing of what you are trying to manipulate them and malign them into saying. There is nothing about war (or this imaginary concept that in war they used to humiliate their opponents by doing these things to them) in the context of Genesis 19. Your reading this into it is called eisegesis. There is also no pederasty in view in Romans 1:26-27. The Hebrew and Greek languages had words for men and boys, and the words they use in all of these passages do not suggest pederasty. Furthermore, homosexuality is the act of any same-sex engagement; it does not matter whether it is rape, idolatrous practices, pederasty, or so-called "loving, faithful, monogamous" relationships, homosexuality is homosexuality and it is all condemned. The fact that Romans 1:26-27 is not talking about pederasty is prevalent in Paul's condemnation of women with women. Men with younger men was a known fact historically, but women with younger women was never an issue. That kind of thing never took place until recently in modern day where homosexual women go after younger women to build their ranks (the same way homosexual men go after younger men to build their ranks). They attempt to confuse the younger generation by manipulating them and drawing them into their "lifestyle."
Tenth of all, you claim that you "know manipulation when you hear it," yet you fail to hear your own manipulation and lies coming out of your mouth through your teeth. Your arguments utilize faulty logic and appeal to the emotions. Why? Because you know if you attempted to engage people intellectually that you would lose. Like the Charismatic cults who emotionally manipulate their congregations for their own gain, homosexuals do the same thing. They try to make people feel sorry for them and to support them. Sorry, but the only way I feel sorry for homosexuals is because they choose to embrace their sin and try to justify it while heading to hell on a greased pole. I feel sorry that they are so self-deceived.
Eleventh of all, there is no such thing as a "loving, faithful, monogamous" homosexual couple. Even if there were, it is less than 1% of all homosexuals (because homosexuals are well-known for their many and fleeting "romances," including their orgies and such) and it would still be wrong. There are many books out there written by people who were raised by one or more homosexual parents as well as by ex-homosexuals that take a stand against homosexuality and expose it for what it really is. One such book that exposes what homosexual parenting is like is called Out From Under: The Impact of Homosexual Parenting by Dawn Stefanowicz.
Twelfth of all, disagreeing with homosexuals and telling them they are wrong and what they are doing is a perversion is not a "hate crime." Someone attacking a homosexual and inciting someone that said it was wrong does not make what that person said a "hate crime" either. The person who did the attacking owns the responsibility for the crime. Homosexuals do not want to send a "clear message" in regard to "hate crimes;" they want to be a special class of citizen untouchable by anyone else and unaccountable for their own actions. If a homosexual attacks and brutally beats someone for disagreeing and saying homosexuality is wrong, nothing happens to him; he is not charged for his crime. But if the person being attacked swings once in self-defense, that person will be charged to the full extent and put in jail. You talk about justice and yet you know nothing of justice. You talk about honesty and yet you are blatantly dishonest. You lie through your teeth like every other homosexual and you attempt to manipulate everything around you: people, your situation, the system, etc. If you want to see who is really guilty of hate crimes, look no further than the homosexual community. If you want to see the facts about homosexuality, I suggest you read http://prolife.ath.cx:8000/plae117.htm, http://prolife.ath.cx:8000/plae118.htm, and http://www.truenews.org/Homosexuality/real_agenda.html.
Thirteenth of all, if you want to talk about suppression, I suggest you look to yourself. You ridicule ex-gays and claim there is evidence that they are suppressing who they are, unwilling to take their testimony seriously. Sorry, but it is you who is doing the suppression; you are suppressing the truth in unrighteousness. Furthermore, your turning to Romans 2 and claiming we should not judge is taken out of context. Try reading the entire New Testament some time and you'll see that Christians are to judge. 1 Corinthians 5, in point of fact, Paul says he has already judged the person. The Greek word used here is krino, which means to condemn in a legal sense. Romans 2 follows hot on the heels of Romans 1:28-32. In context, he is saying those who do the same things are not to judge. Try reading its words some time. Romans 1:32 and Romans 2 do not refer back to Romans 1:26-27 because in judging homosexuality we sure as heck do not do the same thing! Learn correct exegesis and what it means to actually keep something in context. The fact you ignore and suppress the vast numbers of homosexuals who openly admit that the passages in the Bible do indeed condemn homosexuality demonstrates just how dishonest you really are.
Fourteenth of all, Christians are to obey, from a loving heart, all the commands found in the New Testament, including those repeated from the Old Testament. In case you never noticed, 9 of the 10 commandments were repeated in the New Testament. The prohibition against homosexuality was also repeated in the New Testament. However, it was accompanied by change, as were many other commands from the Law. These changes were built on love and grace. What were these changes? In the Old Testament, you were to stone anyone caught in adultery. In the New Testament, what changes do we see in regard to this Law? Jesus challenges the crowd that the person without sin may cast the first stone. Why? Because dead people cannot repent. Jesus knows there is a lot at stake. What does He say to her afterward? "Go, and sin no more" (John 8:11). The only other place where Jesus says this, He attaches something terrifying and profound: "sin no more, so that nothing worse may happen to you" (John 5:14). What could be worse than being stoned in this life? Being separated from the presence of God for eternity. We don't stone disobedient children any more because they would have no opportunity to repent. Likewise, we don't stone homosexuals any more because they, too, would have no opportunity to repent.
Last of all, you are not a Christian. It is a contradiction of terms and is impossible to be a gay "Christian." You might try reading Matthew 7:21-23, because that is the category you, and other professing homosexual "Christians," fit into. The Bible says that we must renounce all sin and rid ourselves of it. Yet you, and those like you, want to continually dwell in your sin and seek justification for your sin. You may claim you have peace about it, and falsely attribute that so-called peace to the Holy Spirit, but have you never read where the Bible informs us that "The heart is more deceitful than all else and is desperately sick; Who can understand it?" (Jer. 17:9)? What you and Mike do is not called love. Have you never read where the Bible informs us that "Love...does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth" (1 Cor. 13:4-8a)? It is not love to encourage someone to do what is biblically, morally, naturally, scientifically, physically, intellectually, emotionally, and spiritually wrong. Homosexuality is a perversion of both human and sexual natures, whether you want to admit it or not and whether you like it or not. Jonathan and David were not homosexual, nor were they bi-sexual. They were two friends who had a great love for each other, and many people have that today. It does not equal sexual attraction or sexual union. It is sad you have to manipulate the text and disregard it in order to try and affirm your sinful behaviour. Love the sinner, hate the sin. I love murderers, but I hate their murderous actions; I love rapists, but I hate their raping actions; I love child molesters, but hate their molesting actions; I love homosexuals, but I hate their homosexual actions. Homosexuality is not innate nor is it immutable. A person is not born homosexual, they become homosexual after committing homosexuality, in the same way a person becomes a murderer after they murder and a person becomes a rapist after they rape and a person becomes a child molester or pedophile after they molest a child. The same illogical arguments used to garner support for homosexuality are being used to garner support for every other sexually deviant perversion as well. Pedophiles are using the same homosexual arguments to try and claim they can't help the way they are: http://www.greeleygazette.com/press/?p=11517.
For a thorough and sound refutation of the arguments presented by a professing gay "Christian," see this article: http://bereansdesk.blogspot.com/2013/10/the-bible-and-homosexuality.html

Jesus re-iterated this, as did Paul, bringing their hearers/readers back to the beginning, and upholding God's standard for all human beings and relationships.
