False. You can say that all you want, but it just simply is not true.

Actually, it's completely true. Your denials are just that... denials.

Actually, your interpretations are the ones that are based on incorrect translational and historical context. You just decide to twist it and make it look like I am the one off-base presenting ad hom attacks.

No, the translations and historical contexts that I am using are accurate. Biblically, they are on target as translated from the ancient Hebrew and are contextual based on where they are located (especially the Leviticus passages). Historically, they are also on target based on what we know of that era. You, on the other hand have nothing in the way of context or accurate translations. All you know is how to interpret the bible from an anti-gay position.

That you BELIEVE that God believes in and mandates... which for anyone else means zilch.

Comparing slavery and homosexuality is comparing apples and oranges. Besides, you do realize slavery in the Bible is not the same as what you think of when you think of slavery. Assuming you think of the slavery of the civil war.

And you do understand that homosexual behavior in the Bible is not the same as what homosexuality is today. THEN it was about homosexual rape or ritualistic homosexual behavior performed by pagans. See? This is why people call your positions hypocritical. They ARE. You cherry pick and present extreme scrutiny for one issue, but not for others. This is because of your anti-gay BIAS. If you were consistent in your interpretation of the bible, you would never have made the post that I just quoted.

No, not the case. There is a big difference actually.

No, actually there isn't unless you are hypocritical. The accurate descriptions of homosexual behavior in the bible have been explained to you. Your rejection of them, but acceptance of alternate interpretations of slavery prove your hypocrisy and bias on this issue. That's why nothing you say can be considered credible.

In your opinion, but you are wrong. Marriage is sacred, so not only does SSM corrupt it, so does all of the other marriages that aren't based on pure reasons and don't follow their vows.

In your opinion. See how this works?

Prove it.

Look around you. Explain how something just happened without a Creator. It is impossible.

That's not proof. That's your claim. Let's see the proof.
 
Re: Which religion will stand its ground against the gay agenda? [W:743]

All religion and gay people will find common grounds. The pope I hear claimed that he is no one to judge gay people.

That position comes from a straight non religious person. Probably the most objectively distant one compared to stakeholders in this debate.

SSM is perfectly healthy and normal.... in your opinion. Yup, think I got it. ;)

Normal is irrelevant. Healthy is a word we need in context. Many heterosexual relationships are unhealthy, but we allow them anyway. So, to discuss that aspect further, we need a more specific context.

We may BELIEVE this. But belief is not the same as proof. You must prove it could not have happened without a creator. And once that s done, prove who the creator was. You can't just say it has to be. That's lazy.

I don't think you do,Dooble.

I just checked all of Capt.C's posts on this thread and not once did he type out the words"SSM is perfectly healthy and normal".

Now,whether or not he thinks it is,that is immaterial to this post.
(I personally have no problem with SSM,and profit quite nicely from gay weddings here in New York State,Maine,and Washington)

You are putting words into other peoples "keyboards".
What gives you the right to tell someone else what they think,what they believe,and what their opinions are?
You seem to have a very bad habit of doing just that here.

Personally,I think Capt.C. is more than capable of letting everyone here know what his opinions are without needing YOU to do it for him.
But that's just my opinion.

Homosexuality is abnormal. Heterosexuality is normal. That's the only content you need to have.

Where did I say that he did? I've merely taken his defense of SSM and phrased my statement along the same line of his thinking. Are you saying that the Cap disagrees? I mean, based on what you've been able to glean from his past comments?

Thank you for proving once again that you have a bad habit of telling people what to do,what to think,what to say,and what to believe.

Note: Above bolding is mine

And you know what CC is thinking how?
Whether Capt.C agrees or disagrees,that is for HIM to make that statement,not you or me.
In my opinion you should have phrased your statement in a form of a question.

I wouldn't of had any objection if you did it that way.

What Capt.C "thinks" is up to HIM to say he,if he chooses to.
You could have ASKED him what his opinion is,instead of telling everyone here what HIS opinion is.

As it happens consistently in nature and in 10% of the population, and always has, it can reasonably be argued it is quite normal.
