    According to a TV program on TV last night there are 40 million Gay people in USA and Probably as many sympathizers,no wonder politicians are slow to legislate.
    As a canadian i expect the same precent of our smaller population would be equal to the above. [​IMG]

    I really think that number is too high. Someone was extrapolating from the 1950's Kinsey study to come up with that, but IIRC, more recent studies suggest the number of homosexuals is smaller than once believed. More vocal, without a doubt. I suspect the actual number is in the ten million range. But then again, I don't survey them, or anyone else for that matter, just some little factiod that stuck in the brain.

    The Kinsey report
    is contaminated by the perverts who made
    it (they collected the baby sexual response,
    well, nevermind ...) Anyway, about six
    percent of liberal USofA presons have tryed
    same sex sex. Only about 1/3 of them, 2%
    of the total ever try it again.
    This is about 10,000,000 in the USofA.

    My parents were hetrosexual, yours?

    Does that include those who are happy and those who have a same sex lifestyle.

    As Christians, do we have a choice to live the Christian Lifestyle? Is it really a choice? As a Christian, I have no choice but to be Christian. Otherwise, I would not be happy and spiritually fullfilled. I would also burn in hell. But some would say, we Christians have a choice to be or not to be.

    But the Gays have a choice, and they have chosen hell.

    While at a bible conference in MD a couple of years ago an evangelist told of leading a homosexual to the Lord.Later that night he got a call at his motel room from the pastor of the church,stating they had to go see the man immediately.He was beside himself not knowing what to do next.He had been raised by homosexuals and knew no other lifestyle.
    Today thousands are being raised by these people and this perverted lifestyle is being taught to the children.I think that allowing them to adopt, is becoming a way of enlarging their numbers.

    Well we better be carefull what we say here, especially if you live in Washington State. If HOUSE BILL 1938(washington State) passes, you will not be able to say those things anymore.

    The truth could put you in jail.

    Having nothing better to do with my day (I'm home sick with the flu...again (3rd time this "winter")), I thought I kill some time by looking up the bill that Jailminister mentioned. The information comes from the 'Summary Page for House Bill 1938,' which basically states "...Including gender expression or identity in the definition of "sexual orientation" for the purposes of malicious harassment protection." LINK

    A portion of the bill reads as follows..." Words alone do not constitute malicious harassment unless the context or circumstances surrounding the words indicate the words are a threat. Threatening words do not constitute malicious harassment if it is apparent to the victim that the person does not have the ability to carry out the threat."

    So, speaking the truth would not necessarily get you tossed in jail. I could tell someone that they are living sinfully in the eyes of God and in danger of going to hell, and it would be okay in the eyes of the law because it wasn't said maliciously or threateningly(sp). (Now of course, try telling that to the ACLU and they might have a different view of things [​IMG] :D )

    Okay, it's time I crawl back to bed and get some [​IMG] [​IMG]

    God Bless!!!

    Okay, having had a short nap, which didn't really help much, I'm back on line killing time until my wife gets home (at which time I hope she fixes me some chicken noodle soup. She's such a wonderful woman (luv ya Kris!!)).

    Anyway, came across an interesting article called "Homosexuality: A Biblical Perspective" (by Gil Rugh, Pastor of the Indian Hills Community Church,Lincoln, Nebraska). It's quite an interesting read. CLICK HERE to take a look.

    God Bless!!!

    The stats on gay/lesbian/sodomites and perverts in the US were grossly inflated to try to gain political support. 10% was commonly reported. (30 million)

    In reality it was 1-2% max. Don't believe the propaganda machine. And keep preaching against this heinous sin.

    If homosexuality is genetic, and if they do not reproduce, then why hasn't nature eliminated the "gene" centuries ago? I thought that aberrant recessive genes were self-destructive. Do we have any genetics' expers who can clear this up for me/us?
