Homosexuality
i just reread that....... that's BS and quite stupid to say. im not the one trivializing sexual preferences yet putting the weight of eternal damnation on it like it's so simple...
To review, no eternal damnation comes from a gland-induced sensation leading to a desire (like me physically being attracted to women). The damnation comes in not catching that and praying to God to help you with it, but rather saying "f.you God" then turning around and whining "God is mean".

In regard to the phase I bolded, to what are you referring?
can you keep nothing straight?
im referring to your claims of meshing evolution with the will of god.... when clearly dont dont even believe in the CORE concepts of evolution
with your literal interpretation of things... it's illogical and blasphemous (to god and evolution) to do so
but it's deceving and thoughtless (cause you dont seem to care about trivial points) on your behalf to make such gossamar statements
You're seeing "devils, devils everywhere", and I don't know what you're ranting about.

im so tired of your smartass eye rolling.....
im not stupid i know were not talking about the urges..... we're talking about what your religion expects homosexual people to do about these urges in order to repent... to live a lifestyle approved by god
my point is it's not that simple to expect them to do that...... it's forced. (refer to my example where i asked you if you EVER prayed to god to be attracted to men just to avoid your sexual lust/attraction to women... cause that's effectively what you're asking homosexuals to do)
and you ignored my previous points on this... so im not going back through it all.
suffice it to say... you have no logical way to navigate those waters THAT you have clearly demonstrated
the fact this is like the 3rd or 4th time you bring up the "urge does not equal sin" point shows that you are far behind the times or are ignoring these other "trivial" points

'Cause that's what it's about. Otherwise, they're just friends.
BS. What about asexual couples who don't have sex? I wouldn't suggest that your relationships are solely based on sex, therefore why are you so convinced that a gay relationship is all about sex? If I had a girlfriend who, for whatever reason, didn't want to have sex, I wouldn't then consider her to be only a friend. There are more differences between a friendship and a romantic relationship than just sex.
Women are better at sucking a penis than men are. Please don't ask me to go into the depths, as it were, of their silky mouths, and their natural subtle eroticism which so inflames us. Men suck more like they're playing professional sports, or working out, than like they're actually making sweet, sweet love to their partners.
And you would know this how exactly?

you're like a squirrel who cannot remember where he put his nuts.......
must be nice not having to worry about such trivial stuff.

technically oral sex is sodomy.........
so ragtime shouldnt have any carnal knoweldge of this either...
or he should at the very least be screaming, "oh god im sorry" in the midst of it
and afterward
edit: oral/anal sex and pretty much anything that is not "vanilla" is considered sodomy and thus homosexuality shouldnt even be necesaary to consider it a sin... so i dont see how caring whether men or women are better at performing either has any relevance...

I know you love evolution (sort of a make-shift deity to you?), but I don't think someone can blaspheme it.
You're getting emotional because I'm trivilizing the thing you most hold dear, and that's understandable.

i use using the term figuratively... as i am up to speed on definitions
you couldnt even comprehend my beliefs if i tried to explain... evolution does not encompass my beliefs nor does it compass yours
i get emotional cause you're being obtuse and uncooperative...

Ragtime-you just gotta understand that, well especially Soph and I, could care less of "god"
I mean I respect you are a christian, I used to be one too...But your really just yaking about god and this and that why you think its wrong
give someone else a chance to reply
seriously
I'm not a student in your classroom. I had a teacher friend who talked to me the way you are, and she apologized for it because she was shifting into "teacher mode" unaware.
that at least would show you are giving soem sort of true consideration for things
I already admitted I don't understand evo theory in detail.
ill apologize when you admit what blatant ignorant ass that you're being...
If you can manage to willfully keep away from other people's naked genetalia, then homosexuality has gone away from you as far as the Bible is concerned. That willfulness involves trying to curb your lust as well. We're above beasts, and we should act like it.
I don't back out of it. You just don't receive points you don't want to receive.
That's a wild enough claim to be untrustworthy -- especially since I know my own thoughts better than you know my thoughts.

I'd consider them friends. I love my friends very deeply; there's just no sex.
Sex would be quite central to any relationship of mine, even though that sex would be in the future.
Then, in what capacity would she be your girlfriend? I think you're over-intellectualizing friendships/relationships. They don't have THAT MANY damn dimensions.

I've been sucked. But only by my wife.
