If true, that falls within his domain and not ours. And I'm not sure I'd follow a God who condemned me to he'll for eating too many twinkies. Just saying.

So, what is stopping you? You routinely ignore His words, you show Him so little respect that you actually think Him incapable of knowing what was importand and what was not, have such hubris that you claim He had attitudes that reflected your beliefs even though He never stated such and and turn to just about anybody instead of Jesus.

Not true, mischaracterizations of my statements and positions. When you decide to be truthful about what I have said, let me know.

:spin: :alert

I've actually never had a Twinkie so I really don't know. My guilty-pleasure is Little Debbie Oatmeal Pies.

I don't eat twinkies either. Chocolate? That's another story.

They shouldn't believe hateful bigoted things. These beliefs harm humanity and not uplift the human.

Maybe you don't understand what those religions are. They not there to uplift humans based on arbitrary principles, but upon certain ones given by God. If you don't comply, you're a sinner. It doesn't get more simple than that. And since God is God, you don't get to make the rules or judge them as bigoted. In Christianity, God is in charge, not you. The non-religious seem to have a real problem with grasping who's in charge.

What an argument, what evidence..... oh wait.... I asked you for the work you claim to have done and you don't provide anything. Lame.

Give me your exegetical work on 1 Corinthians 6
Give me your exegetical work on Romans 1

Romans 1 original language used a term arsenokoitai is what is translated into homosexual in leviticus it is found with the terms malakos, catamites and pornos. malakos means soft, subdued, weak, it all depends on context. Catamites is the term for a beardless man, or a boy. Pornos means prostitute. Arsenokoitai is an odd word. Arseno means male and koitai means sleeping place or bed. It all depends on context.

In the context referenced in leviticus and also Corinthians it seems to be discussing the Greek behavior of taking boy sex slaves. Common practice in old world cultures.

Corinthians 6 to my understanding doesn't have anything to do with homosexuality.

You may want to recheck that bible of yours. While I'm a fan eEcclesiastes, and King Solomon, we humans have remade the rules many times. And as I've noted, the New Testament is all about compassion and not hell and damnation.

But then again, you're just trolling aren't you? :coffeepap

The Bible, in its entirety, is about loving God and keeping His commandments.

That seems to be very much open to individual interpretation as to how to go about that.

It's better to just ask God for guidance before you start reading & interpreting His word.
