10/19 "I'm Gay, OK?"
Quote From: oet_gaolThe hiding behind religion is that when you give you're opinion on gay-related issues you say "The bible says" you don't say I think and if you do you say right after that "but the bible says" so you take away the power of your words so you don't have to say what you think instead of what the bible thinks that is why it's hiding behind religion.
Yes maby the sories went beyond the babylonian and egyptian era even more reason to doubt how true they are because the first writing isn't much older then those eras.
About the stories of jesus is just not how I heard it I'm sorry
I didn't say you where following the koran I gave it as an example on how the same thing came be interpreted in sow many ways so can you inteprete the bible in different ways why else would there be so many different churches?
But man wrote down the scriptures is it not possible that god might have made it understandable for man in that period and that we can interprete it for this period? Because if god is a greater being he should've cut down to our level of understanding and that ment that in that era man might not have been ready for a gay community.
And that bible was kept by the vatican for many centuries I've stated before, if there was no God I wouldn't care less about this subject. Fact is, I do believe there is a God and I also believe that he does not condone this lifestyle, in fact He despises it.
I base my truth upon the Bible. Most Christians do. It's the only absolute truth I know of. I'm not 'hiding' behind' anything.
I don't know why you doubt the books of the Bible by the statement you've made.
The Koran is not the same thing at all as the Bible. They are two completely separate peices of literature. Both Christians and Muslims would agree.
The Bible is written to our understanding. It's pretty clear.
While the vatican may have made it illegal at one point in history to own a Bible in Italy, this was during a time long after it had already been written and widely dispersed. As soon as the books were written they were recopied and distributed all over. The early Christians were very eager to go forth and preach the gospel.
There have been many attempts to destroy the Bible or to make it illegal but it's still the all time best seller.
