Featured Honest Question: Why do we place a stigma on certain Sins?

maybe its due to God stating to us that hetro is "natural/normal", while Homo is not natural, against natural affections though?

 

The problem is that the homosexual lifestyle is being rammed down our throat in this country. It is trying to be taught in our public schools as acceptable. It is trying to be made legal in our government policies.

The reaction to it comes from the political agenda attached to it. Ignoring that fact just discredits your point altogether.

 

Well I don't now what world you live in but it is condemned quite regularly everywhere I have been. And I have lived around the country. So let's not pretend somehow it is accepted by the church. That is pure baloney.

Now having saif that your example is not even close to the same thing. No one is pushing to have heterosexual adultery taught as acceptable in schools. No one is pushing to have heterosexual adultery passed as a law to be accepted. Apples and refrigerators.

 

Yes it does.

 

I can't believe I'm reading this on a Christian board

Yes there is a difference. Hetro sexual is natural. Homo sexual is a deviation from nature. It's not only a sin against God but against the natural order of how it was intended to be. Homosexuals do the most despicable things of all in what they do to each other. It's more than just sin it's rolling around in filth beyond the imagination. It dangerous to everyones health in that it causes so many diseases. Frankly it's just plain sick. I believe homosexual acts are responsible for the aids epidemic. Which spread to Hetrosexuals by bisexuals. Innocent babys have died because of these sexual deviants. Sin is one thing but when your sin places everyone in danger they are taking it to far.

Much as we might not like it, while all sexual sins are bad, God has said that Homosexual activities are the worst in that category of deviations from what is acceptable to God!

ALL sins are an affront to god, but there is 'something" in homosexual behaviour that are said to be worse !

 

Why are certain sins stigmatized?

Maybe because they're shoved in our faces on a daily basis?

(Hey, that kinda rhymes. I'm a poet and didn't know it! Somebody stop me! :laugh

 

You know, if I had a loved one that I suddenly learned was a deviant, I would perhaps make the same arguments as one of the posters in this thread!!!!:thumbsup::tear:

 

those holding to sound doctrine and practices do, but those are ALWAYS seen as being sinful, yet MANY even in the Church, see Robb Bell/Bishop spong, see the Homosexual acts as being acceptable to God!

 

I believe you're wrong. You see what is natural is the way it was designed. Marriage places it in the eyes of God and therefore is not against the Law. Out side of marriage doesn't make it unnatural. It just against the Law. It's still natural. Deviancy from How God made us in the first place makes it unnatural. What is natural has nothing to do with the Law

Again this is not a correct view. Heterosexual sex is natural whether married or not even though it is against God's Law.

No matter how hard you try you will never be able to justify Homosexuality as being the same as a man and woman together. A man with a Man can never be one flesh but a Man and a woman can be. Because they are the correct two halves of a the whole flesh. Eve Came out of Adam. Steve did not come out of Adam.

Not true at all. They are completely different. You see them the same because that's the way you go about justifying it. God is the one who said it was an abomination and that He hated it. Christians just happen to agree with what God has said.

Not unless it is Sodomy which is also just as bad as Homosexuality

True, but all sin isn't the topic.

I hope your laugh was a nervious one. It was a sexual deviant that contracted aids from a gorrilla I've been told. Others have said that it was some failed experiment. Your guess is as good as mine. Yet the facts are the facts.

And you're not on a high horse trying to justify Homosexuality. I know I sin. I have never said I'm with out it. I believe you placed this thread on the board. Stop justifying your self by the sins of others. It's your sins that can take you to hell and yours alone. What others do will have to be worried over by the ones who did them. It's true everyone sins and there is no sin that is unforgivable except rebellion unto death. Every Christian fights against temptation and strives to avoid sin. We fail sometimes, none of us are perfect. If you love Christ you will work to please Him. Since God hates this sort of thing. Then you know what you have to do. You have to avoid it. I want to advise you to seek God on this in prayer. I hope you will. If you will wait on an answer from God I'm sure you'll get a good one.

Oh I do. I don't like that stuff shoved in my face either!

Zaac, one of the blessings of knowing you is learning how to disagree without getting angry, and that did take a while. LOL While I agree with you for the most part about this subject, there is a minor point I will debate with you. I realize all sexual activity outside of marriage is a sin, and that includes the one all males have failed at, looking at another woman in lust. However, in the natural order of things, I do believe that a man is attracted to a woman. In my frame of mind, a homosexual relationship would disguist me whether saved or lost. A relationship outside of marriage with a person of the opposite sex, while not right and is without a doubt a sin, is resisted more along the lines of having Christ in ones life and being guided by the Holy Spirit. In other words, I think I could resist French kissing a man on my own power.

The results of the two sins are the same, without Christ, eternal punishment, and on earth, loss of a marriage partner.
