    Have to disagree with you this time. They were not just kissing. They were licking cake off of each others face. It was disgusting, and not because they were gay. If John and Mary Q Heterosexual were licking cake off each other during the NFL draft broadcast I would say the same thing. It had no place being broadcast.

    I will say, in secular circles discussing this, the disgust seems to widespread amongst many groups. It was inappropriate and it was done to be rude.

    These are the times I rejoice that I don't have a television.

    I'll take your word for that. I was just responding to the fact that the OP says they were captured in a kiss. And the pic I saw didn't display that.

    But I'll repeat, soap operas, and just about every tv station that's trying to advertise to that 18-49 demographic is showing unmarried folks doing that and more.

    I'm still a save for your marriage type guy.

    I don't have cable. I don't watch the draft. Though I'm a big NFL fan, I usually just read the summaries for my team and the division.

    As for Sams, couple of things:
    1. I don't care who he has sex with.
    2. I don't care if he kisses men or women. If he is homosexual he will kiss men.
    3. When our kids ask us about this, or something else that will obviously start showing up, we talk honestly about.
    4. This kind of display is part of living in a pagan society.
    5. Can we leverage this to show God's way and have a God centered conversation? I hope so.
    6. Calling people names only hurts the cause of Christ in society.

    That is all. Blessings

    I agree PiJ but no one is calling Sam names.

    Prophet has referred to him and those like him as deviants. and it certainly wasn't meant as a term of endurement.

    Aaron, well he's acting like Aaron

    If this thread isn't shut down soon, it can't be interpreted any way other than that the "ban" on discussions of human sexuality in the open forums has been lifted.

    At least for Sodom, and

    One who deviates from the natural course = deviant.

    Is the dictionary now a name-caller?

    Rom 1:26-27
    26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections:for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
    27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

    Deviant is the proper term.
