[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 341884, member: 484"] Helen Your post about being born gay, ie without the ability to choose ones lifestyle or path in life brings up the concept of predestination. Something that the Bible as well does not teach. Each person is born with free will. The ability to choose the path down which to travel in life. That being said, some have struggles with certain aspects of life that others dont seem to have. Like killing someone. For the largest majority of people, killing someone is so far wrong that we would never consider it. To a very small group, it is no different than going to the bathroom. Were they born that way? I do find that your posts are very interesting. On one hand, you postleading one to believe you think those that choose this lifestyle are not sane. But then you pull religion into it to defend the lifestyle with WWJD? Ever heard of Sodom and Gomorah? Now, then see if you can find any passage that Jesus spoke where He or His Father change. I think you will find many passages where the opposite is true. There are absolutes. They dont change. If you read the bible, homosexuality is wrong, just like stealing etc. And it was wiped out when ever it was found, to keep it from spreading. When you get a chance, look up the temple and money changers story. Then tell me he would not be very vocal on the subject. But then again, he was only interested in speaking to those that were interested in listening to the truth. There were many that were not, and because he spoke the truth, that was very uncomfortable to many, they ended up killing him. I think that the concept you are confusing WWJD with is the statement that Jesus loves the sinner and hates the sin. A statement that is born out by the Bible. But that He would condone and support gay marriage is a real stretch. So Helen, please dont think I am "beating you up". I just think that you have some basic concepts that are a bit flawed. Kinda like doing a math problem without all the information. How can you get the answer right if you dont have all the correct information to arrive at the correct answer. d [/QUOTE]
