    Which you have declined stating you don't want to. Really now, are you ready to act like an adult?

    I think I've made my point about it in so far as it relates to this thread.

    You would have to take that up with the Lord jesus, as he made those rules!
    And paul would see Homosexual/lesbian Christians as remaining celibite for the Lord, as a high calling in Christ, do you?

    I don't think Jesus has anything to say about homosexuality. In any event many have taken it up with Him and have arrived at a conclusion different from yours. On what basis do you claim that your revelation is superior?
    You're asking the wrong person. Why don't you ask a Christian with that orientation?

    Easy for you to say. Come back to me when you've led an enforced celibate life but still been denounced from the pulpit of your home church as an abomination and pervert (not you personally of course, just your 'kind', so that's alright then).

    You have read Deuteronomy and Romans view on homosexuality, correct? Same Jesus wrote down both of those to us, thru Moses and Paul!

    Since the former was written hundreds of years before Jesus was born and the latter decades after He ascended to the Father, plus we have no record of Him writing anything during His time on earth, I fail to see how such a claim can be made

    And you're comparing that to eternity?

    Do you really want to go down that road? How about their children? How about their families? God created the natural plan for marriage. Read Matthew Chapter 19.

    But he did say something: "Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, and said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder." Matthew 19
