Yes there is a lot of community focus in scripture. Worship *IS* a community prayer. It is good to worship with one and other.

Correction is an issue apart. There is the "Teaching Church" and the "Pastoral Church" and they cannot be con-catted together. The Teaching Church teaches all aspects of the faith, including morals.

The Pastoral Church accepts you where you are and brings you into the fellowship of the Church. Your sins are not the business of others. The business of others is to be forgiving and supportive, and to allow God to do judgment in his own good time and way. That is not the affair of the congregation unless someone is grossly out of line and a millstone around the neck of the community. That needs to be addressed: a couple living together is not the affair of the church. A house of prostitution is. Flaming Fagots are not generally welcome in a church, two men living together should raise no eyebrow. You do not have the right to assume anything about them.

Any person who condemns another is in danger of the most grave of mortal sins.

There definitely are some people who could use that reminder.

Let me tell you something...
Just because the World says a certain thing is fabulous.. the "in thing"...with everyone following... doesn't mean or make it the best thing to come down the pike.

I refused to sugarcoat or go with the status quo just because its popular at the time.

That being said,do not attempt to misconstrue my comments into something its not..that is bad form,and shows dishonestly.

To address Your issues..
What someone does with their time,who they spend their time with, is THEIR BUSINESS.Gay or Straight.. doesn't matter.
It's not my place to judge others regarding how they live their lives.
But,it Is up to God..and he said it is HIS to JUDGE and REPAY...
He Said,You shall treat each other as You would like to be treated...love each other the way you want to be loved.

Since it is up to him to judge,I don't have a problem with that...and neither should you.

The decisions that God has made are his own, He will let you know when He applies them to you.

He hasn't said anything to me. Has he said anything to you?

He does not pronounce his decisions for his mercy and grace is still in effect.

What does this mean? If he doesn't tell anyone his decisions, how can we know what they are?

YOU do not need to authenticate them, God knows that they are authentic, that is enough.

If I'm expected to obey his rules, I need to verify that a rule which purports to come from him actually comes from him. Otherwise, I could say that God ordered you to steal and kill and you would be obliged to do so.

Why or how is he authorized to make these decisions is moot if he is indeed God, and if he is not God, that is if there is no God, then the Hell with it.

Yes, but what are his qualifications? What gives him the authority to dictate our lives?

Have you even met the guy?

Such as, we would never know because we don't have an original copy to compare to. If a copying error (or copying "error," since the incentive for a copyist to insert his own "wisdom" into what purports to be God's word is high) and all our existing copies are copied from the original source of the error, we'd never be able identify the error as such.

Neither more nor less dumb than the Christians and Muslims who follow a document they claim can't be corrupted and say all the same things you've been saying.

Check out the first result, on Aish.com. There's a description in the middle of the resulting page. Haven't read it, but I assume it's probably a good start...

Of course you haven't read it. If you did, you would have noticed that there isn't any description of how a document can be manually copied thousands of times without error. It just blathers about the importance of accuracy and then says copyists were instructed to be very careful.

So are you claiming thousands of copyists over thousands of years were all infallible? Or that someone told to be very careful will never make a mistake? That safety measures against failure will be 100% effective when followed, and that they'll be followed 100% of the time?

Wow, this thread is still going on. Discussions about morality and theology hardly belong here, but no one seems to have complained about that, so I won't either. It is an interesting discussion, although surely off-topic.

Getting back to how this started: No, I don't think there is anything "immoral" about consensual sex between two men, it is merely something distasteful to most people. That seems to be a reaction common to people in all cultures, so you could say it is part of human nature. And whatever is part of our intrinsic nature can be said, in a manner of speaking, to have been ordained by God.

Not a God who writes "commandments" into holy texts that become the scriptures of particular religions - clearly all those texts were written by human beings. But a God who is a metaphorical personification of the creative power of the universe, a power which gave rise to our existence. I do feel it can be a useful metaphor to personify that power as having a will or desires, even though I don't literally believe that there is a separate conscious being who literally created everything by an act of "His" will.

So I have little patience either for religious literalists who point to some obscure passages in the Bible as evidence of "God's will", nor for aggressive atheists who think it is somehow a sign of intelligence to ridicule the beliefs of others by calling God an "imaginary friend" or comparable to a "Spaghetti Monster", etc.

It's hardly common to all cultures, and it's certainly not part of human nature.

And whatever is part of our intrinsic nature can be said, in a manner of speaking, to have been ordained by God.

Um, no. If it's intrinsic to our nature, the most we can say about it is that it helped our ancestors reproduce or it was a harmless side effect of something that did or that it was a detrimental side effect of something that did but not severe enough to overcome the primary benefit or maybe that it was always detrimental but it appeared at the mouth of a population bottleneck and we're stuck with its genetic legacy— or maybe it was just an odd result of an entirely unguided process that can't plan ahead.

I'm not sure what manner of speaking you're thinking of, but it's probably not English.

Not a God who writes "commandments" into holy texts that become the scriptures of particular religions - clearly all those texts were written by human beings. But a God who is a metaphorical personification of the creative power of the universe, a power which gave rise to our existence. I do feel it can be a useful metaphor to personify that power as having a will or desires, even though I don't literally believe that there is a separate conscious being who literally created everything by an act of "His" will.

OK, so "God" is a metaphor for shit happening— a "personification" of all the physical and chemical reactions that gave rise to the universe.

See, the problem is that this statement is perfectly consistent with the one above— if "God" is a word we use to mean "shit that happened, with no consciousness, personality, or intent behind it" then of course our intrinsic nature is "ordained by God." However, that contradicts your next statement...

So I have little patience either for religious literalists who point to some obscure passages in the Bible as evidence of "God's will", nor for aggressive atheists who think it is somehow a sign of intelligence to ridicule the beliefs of others by calling God an "imaginary friend" or comparable to a "Spaghetti Monster", etc.

Where you claim you have little patience for "aggressive" atheists who call God the conscious human-like being of religions an "imaginary friend" comparable to a spaghetti monster even though you believe exactly that yourself.

Ridiculing the beliefs of others just for the hell of it does not make you seem smart or impressive, just nasty and mean-spirited. And there are surely more things at work in this universe than the physical and chemical reactions that current science knows about. I'll leave it at that.

We have a pretty good record of how the texts which became known as the Bible have changed over time; the changes between some of the Dead Sea Scrolls and current scriptures are quite minimal. The currently accepted version of the Hebrew scriptures, known as the Masoretic Text, became fixed about a thousand years ago, and yes, various copies of it have been compared with each other over the years enough times that we can be quite confident that the text used today is the same as the text codified by the Masoretes around the 11th century. That doesn't make it the infallible Word of God, but it does mean that it has been successfully preserved without alteration for about a thousand years.

With all due respect, and me being a Heterosexual, Catholic male, I don't agree with how you are stating this.
Yes, we do have freedom of religion in this country, and will fight to the death to keep that, however, the statements you are making is completely coming from YOUR religion. That doesn't make it "as it is". Everyone is free to believe, or NOT believe what they want.

Didn't read the links but just because someone speaks out against the gay lifestyle doesn't make them homophobic.

Yes, that is ABSOLUTELY correct. And I do agree with that. Unfortunately, as soon as someone speaks out against gays, that automatically makes them "homophobic", and that is absurd.


I'm a Christian and know from God's word that the gay lifestyle is a sin and displeasing to God, as is any sin. That said, I believe in "love the sinner, hate the sin".


Christians (Catholic, and many others) believe do not believe that homosexuality is wrong, just the act of gay sex. That said, YOU (or whoever) may believe that, but that does not mean "you" are fact. There are plenty of people that do NOT believe that, and people that DO believe that have NO right to infringe on those that don't happen to believe that. THAT is something I find wrong. Just as you believe your religion, others believe theirs. Not everyone follows the same religion.

I don't fear homosexuals but do know their actions are morally wrong. There's a big difference.

"Do know" is completely subjective. NO ONE knows. Just because YOU believe a religious tenet of some religion, doesn't mean it's "fact". So the "difference" is subjective.

When did I speak to God? Every time I pray and read His word. He's my Father, my Savior, and my best friend. Try it. It's not difficult.

I totally respect that. And that is great. For you. It may not be great for others.

I believe gays are inherently evil? Wrong bongo. We are all sinners,

He's of the persuasion that if you have the nerve to speak out on your beliefs, you must be evil or think those you speak out against are evil. It's ironic, as liberals claim to be for free speech and equality, and so forth, yet are the first to want to squash speech of those they don't agree with, or throw out extreme accusations of those they don't agree with you are right calling him bongo.

it's by Christ's death and God's grace that we are forgiven. God detests habitual sin and people taking pride in it. Love the sinner but hate their sin.

But now we get back to what YOUR beliefs are. That does not make it "true" or "fact" just because you have the faith to believe it. I am not criticizing you, just pointing out the fact that beliefs are subjective in this case.

"It's "morally wrong" for gay people to have the same relationships straight people do." Not at all, it's only morally wrong to act on it. One man, one woman is what He intended. It's that simple.

Says who? the religion YOU believe in? A religion that is interpreted how people want. What is "morally wrong" for you, is not "morally wrong" for all. It's FAR from "that simple".

Yes, that is ABSOLUTELY correct. And I do agree with that. Unfortunately, as soon as someone speaks out against gays, that automatically makes them "homophobic", and that is absurd.

Because anyone who speaks out against "the gay lifestyle" or uses the term "the gay lifestyle" unironically, is homophobic and that is not absurd.

Yes. There are physical and chemical reactions that science has yet to discover. That is not proof for the existence of a supernatural deity; it's just proof that no human knows everything about how the universe works.

He's of the persuasion that if you have the nerve to speak out on your beliefs, you must be evil or think those you speak out against are evil.

No, but if you explicitly state: "Gay people are evil!" then you probably believe gay people are evil.

It's ironic, as liberals claim to be for free speech and equality, and so forth, yet are the first to want to squash speech of those they don't agree with, or throw out extreme accusations of those they don't agree with you are right calling him bongo.

Where have I done any of those things?

The problem is that most conservatives really don't understand what free speech actually means. Freedom of speech means you can say what you like without fear of censorship— it doesn't mean that you are exempt from criticism, or from people forming their own opinions about what you said.

So what you meant to say was:

It's ironic. Liberals are for free speech and equality, and so forth, yet conservatives claim it's hypocritical for the advocates of free speech to speak freely.

Ridiculing the beliefs of others just for the hell of it does not make you seem smart or impressive, just nasty and mean-spirited.

You're just upset because you're a eunuch while I have had sex with literally every woman on the planet (who is between the ages of 20 and 34).

I would love to see you respect that belief, since by your own argument merely declaring it untrue is "nasty" and "mean-spirited."

And there are surely more things at work in this universe than the physical and chemical reactions that current science knows about.

Well duh. There are plenty of physical and chemical reactions that current scientists don't know about yet.

However, I fail to see how you get from "humans haven't discovered all knowledge in the universe" to "it is reasonable to believe something which is already known to be false."

Yes. Duh.
Then you're even dumber than I already thought. Wow.

Neither more nor less dumb than the Christians and Muslims who follow a document they claim can't be corrupted and say all the same things you've been saying.
First of all, I have no idea what protections are in place for Christian and Muslim texts and no comparison should be made. Second of all, I made no claim that it couldn't be corrupted. I quite clearly stated: "Controls were put in place to prevent that from happening. So your scenario ("all our existing copies are copied from the original source of the error") is unlikely."

Of course you haven't read it. If you did, you would have noticed that there isn't any description of how a document can be manually copied thousands of times without error. It just blathers about the importance of accuracy and then says copyists were instructed to be very careful.
That sucks. But I'm sure other links can be found that are more clear.

So are you claiming thousands of copyists over thousands of years were all infallible?
No.

Or that someone told to be very careful will never make a mistake?
No.

That safety measures against failure will be 100% effective when followed, and that they'll be followed 100% of the time?
No.

If a mistake happens during the copying, which is highly unlikely for a whole bunch of reasons), then it would would probably be found by someone else and either corrected or destroyed.

Your "truth" is the same truth the enemy of Man wants us to believe..regardless of what we See with our own eyes,or hear with our minds.
You Choose not to believe not due to the Lack of so called "evidence", but due to the overwhelming prevailing evidence of reality itself.
But the most overwhelming "evidence" looks back at you every time you look in a mirror. The very fact that the enemy goes out of his way to turn Man away from the Creator...the Fact that you are the physical representative of said Enemy proves beyond any doubt what Your purpose is all about.
So,exactly Who's "truth" are you trying to sell me,when You are lost within yourself?
Who's Truth are you trying to push,when I already know Who You Are,Devil?
What makes You a Liar..is the Fact that you KNOW.. and have Always known "the Truth" according to the Word.
What makes You a murderer,is the fact you are willing to go out of your way to convince others to share in your pain...to lose hope..faith..to give in to the darkness you've placed yourself in. Oh..I understand you need company within that hell you call Life,and your place of eternal separation...which brings us back to this tired game you Devils play,calling it "critical thinking/logic"..

Its All a game to You..win a soul..lose a soul..who cares,as long as I Win.
Here's a game for you to play...
Figure out why you can run your basic sales pitch to me..and I shove it back down your throat.

This is how "they" think.
The ridicule is to plant the seed of doubt..to question your belief system...to make the intended feel inadequate and less intelligent.

But one HAS to wonder the Purpose of such iniquities.. the reasoning behind this onslaught.

Their is No reason.
Its evil for evil's sake.

Or to put it another way...if the seed they have planted has germinated, begins to grow,then that seed will have festered into Evil and evil acts,such as the rejection/separation of God and his Word from person who lacked Spiritual Muscle to reject doubt.

Evil for evils sake.
So,these guys know exactly what they are doing..regardless of how they question prod poke..ridicule..twist bullshit into new and improved bullshit..it all looks and sounds the same after the wash.
EVIL for Evils sake.
