This question is not for Bible scoffers or non-believers. I have or maybe had a friend who is homosexual. He said he struggled with his feelings but said God told him he was okay because he was made that way. I pointed out to him in the Bible (God's Word) in both OT and NT that homosexuality is a very grievous sin against God's design for sexual relationships. He hasn't answered me. I am not saying he is not a Christian but that his sexual practices are clearly in defiance to the Lord. I just cannot see HOW he justifies himself in accordance with the Word of God in which his statement contradicts.
Just have to add, I have my own sins to deal with also but I don't try justify them by saying "I was made that way" because while that is true to some extent in that we were all born to sin, it does not justify my sin just because some are hard to deal with.

Little Britain has been criticised by thousands of viewers who find it abusive towards different backgrounds. Although the creaters of this comedy stresses the importance of how it reflects Britain, clearly it does mush worse. This programme has transformed Britain into a discriminating country, whereby embarrasing truth is revealed. Should Little Britain be off air?

Not book smart I think were = on that. What I mean is street smarts. I've heard many black men just bash and make fun of white girls. Usually at how dumb we are and how easy we give it up. This one guy I know doesnt even date white women any more because he says its no fun when they give it up so easily. At first I was really pissed off when I heard this and was like this is not true you are generalizing a group of people. But now that I have heard all this inside talk Im starting to think its true. Just go to the club and you will see the rudest most disrecptful men and who are they surronded by? White women. I just think that black women are smart enough to stay away from realitonships like that. And just watching at how ditzy some of the white girls act I have rarely seen a black girl do that. So what does everyone else think?

I know this is not true of all Christians, or even the majority, but some definitely think that the Jews are evil because they were responsible for Jesus' death. I know a couple of people personally, plus I've read comments on here and other forums..

But I don't understand, wasn't the whole point for him to die as the sacrificial lamb? I just don't understand the logic.

(of course, I also don't think it makes sense to blame anyone today for what happened two thousand years ago, but that's not exactly my point here)

I've been getting more involved with the gay community and helping a friend of mine fight to be allowed in the military, because he's homosexual does not mean he shouldn't be allowed to serve his country. I've seen many Christians, Catholics, and other theists on this site say that they're against homosexuality because God forbids it.

Without being rude - because I respect your choice (to an extent), but I also want to bring up the fact that God teaches you to love your fellow man. Should you deny someone's friendship because of their choice in partnership simply because you don't agree with it? Do you consider the feelings of others when you speak out against the gay community in the name of God?

Thats what it seems like this whole section is all about. Everyone being the same. None of you seem to be able to accept the fact that we are all individuals. Why?

The word homo is Latin for "human", chosen originally by Carolus Linnaeus in his classification system. It is often translated as "man", although this can lead to confusion, given that the English word "man" can be generic like homo, but can also specifically refer to males. Latin for "man" in the gender-specific sense is vir, cognate with "virile" and "werewolf". The word "human" is from humanus, the adjectival form of homo.

In modern taxonomy, Homo sapiens is the only extant species of its genus, Homo. Likewise, the ongoing study of the origins of Homo sapiens often demonstrates that there were other Homo species, all of which are now extinct. While some of these other species might have been ancestors of H. sapiens, many were likely our "cousins", having speciated away from our ancestral line.

life repeats itself. when Moses came to the pharoh told him i have been sent by God he rejected him. and then when Jesus came to the Jewish tell them he was sent by God they also rejected him. and when Muhammad came with a clear book that he was sent by God they also rejected him.

what make you think you are different than the jewish for not accepting Jesus? Life just repeat itself, for every generation there must be those who don't believe.
