Homosexual behaviour in animals shows that it is very rare and not normal. When homosexual behaviour occurs in animals there is a purpose which is not the purpose ever proposed by human homosexuals: subordination, adolescent development, captivity. And we don't accuse animals of being...

I think it is difficult to define the term "good" for everyone. For the Christian, what God tells us is good in the Bible, is the absolute. If we address the issue solely from a social perspective, same sex unions are debatable. There are some cases where injustice does occur and these need to...

There are some people who react emotionally with a feeling of disgust, and sometimes even hate. Jesus did not treat people that way ... nor do I. I know a number of homosexual people quite well, and realize that they can have loving relationships. The person, and even the love they feel, are...

There are many Christians who experience same sex attraction. Just as there are many Christian men who experience sexual attraction to some woman other than his wife. It is what you do about it that matters. No one is immune from temptation. And Christians will sometimes give in to...

Animals do it ... yeah, that's a really good argument! An unrepentant homosexual is not "in Christ". The gay community insists that loving the person means accepting the behaviour. Christ never did. It seems your definition of prejudice is "Christian standards based on Biblical teaching".

I drive the most economical car I possibly can while participating as a contributing member of society. If your point was that whatever we do, we affect others, then I'm right with you.

Works for countries too.

As an individual, I have a responsibility to make decisions concerning my own behaviour. As a parent, and as a citizen who votes, I am obliged to make decisions about what I believe is right and wrong, moral and immoral. Everyone makes decisions that affect others - to pretend otherwise is...

A question Christians are often faced with is: 'Is it ever ok to use physical force?' Well, I guess a Christian policeman would give you a blunt answer. And as an Aussie, I'm kinda glad the 'Yanks' came down under to help us bloody Hirohito's nose. (Don't get me started on the A bombs!). It is...

Ok, I get it now ... it is just a stereotypical assumption that homosexuals want to have same sex relationships ;) Homosexuals are defined by behaviour (real or desired) in a way that other minority groups are not. A blind person is not blind because he wants to have a guide dog! Behaviour...

Discrimination based on sexual preference cannot be compared to discrimination based on gender, race, age or disability. Of course, the gay rights movement wants to achieve the same status, and is just about there, but there is one very obvious difference: gender, race, age and disability are...

Re: Babylon the great It is not commonly believed among Christians today, but the way I understand the Scriptures, it was the Father living in Jesus Christ. Isaiah 9:6 and his name shall be called … The mighty God, The everlasting Father John 10:30 I and my Father are one. John 14:10...

Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful Counsellor The mighty God The everlasting Father The Prince of Peace

A defect can be healed. Homosexuality is not determined by a biological defect in the brain ... otherwise all identical twins would be homosexual ... and the concordance rate is less than 50%. A large study done by an Australian university found that if one twin was homosexual, 38% of the time...

I was prevented from posting in the "Christians only" section of a certain discussion forum because I did not agree with all the tenets of the Nicene Creed. Do you see Christianity as being defined by the creeds?

That is a beautiful picture of Jesus Christ who willingly took our sins upon Himself because of His great love for us.

Unless one is a well trained scholar of ancient Aramaic and Greek, I feel that personal interpretations are of little value. I have shown that there are at least three English translations of the gospel of Matthew, as it appears in the Peshitta, available on the internet. Are none of them to...

Marietta, I'm sure you won't just take my word for it (and why should you) so here is evidence to show that the Aramaic text of Matthew quotes from the Greek Septuagint, not the Hebrew Tanakh. ARAMAIC 1. http://www.peshitta.org/ 2. http://www.v-a.com/bible/matthew-1.html 3...

Here are three Aramaic-English translations to compare ... you'll note that they are not all exactly the same. http://www.peshitta.org/ http://aramaicnt.com/ http://www.v-a.com/bible

Both the Greek text of Romans, and the Aramaic text of Romans, quote directly from the Septuagint (Psalm 14), as you will be able to see from examining these verses of scripture. GREEK (Romans 3:10-18) 10As it is written: "There is no one righteous, not even one; 11there is no one who...
