i have a friend that says he was born gay, but i dont believe that, i believe that society has influenced people to belieive that they are gay and that it is ok...if men were meant to be with men and women to be with women there would be no children on this earth, that is why man was meant to be with woman, and woman with man...society is a big influence for allowing them to act like that in public and allowing gay festivals and etc...

I mean,personaly to be, it's okay. God does say to love everyone right? So why hate shun and complitly discrimatate the homosexuals? The Japanese seem to except it with no problem, so why does america?

Can someone tell me whats going on?

I have asked a couple of questions tonight, to do with religon. This is my final draft, as it were...

A lot of people from various faiths are telling me that I will be eternally damned if I do not worship *insert particular belief structure here* and repent my life so far. Yet what is it in my current lifestyle that makes me evil? Here are my personal beliefs:

***I believe that everyone is responsible for their own actions.
***I believe that if everyone were to do just one thing a day that made another happy, the world might just save itself.
***I believe that no one person has the right to proclaim themselves better than anyone else.
***I believe that everyone has within them the potential to help create a better world.


Just because I do not label myself, apparently I should go to somewhere that is reserved for evil people. I do not see my beliefs as evil. Why are people telling me that my way of life is wrong?

Many people here have answered my question about differences between sins. Most said a sin is a sin and God does not diferentiate. This means that homosexuals are no more sinful than anyone else, so why can't they be ministers and full members ofa christian church?

Matthew 27:51-53,the graves opened and bodies of the saints came out of the graves after his resurrection and went into the city and appeared unto many. To me that is wonderful,there was so much power that the saints rose when he did!I wonder why I haven`t ever heard that talked about in church?

Afterall despite being a primate with opposing thumbs and a developed frontal lobe-we have in common with amoebas and all species-Greed,Lust and Anger...in fact they are the "gift of life"

Yet the West has heaped all "the animal" it denies within itself..on to me...the goat...no goat devil in the Bible...yet here I am,yours truly...all the animal and instinct that your Reason would like to deny...keeping you continuing in your line of flesh,just the same...scapegoated...and the ones most in denial of me-the most likely to have explosive schizoid episodes where their lusts and greeds repressed act unnaturally and inordinately...and to this attitude of denial that I assert...my past questions(and many of the answers) demonstrate the many who are in this state aptly...

I know, I'm going to get a lot of "Of course not. Jesus is my personal Savior...etc" answers. (which is fine)

What I am asking is, are there others out there who feel saying "I am Christian" leads others to conclude things about you that are not true?

Everytime a muslim or palestianian asks a question about muslim and why do americans hate us or why did the israelies bomb our village kind of questions , their questions are removed !

But, when a Christian or jew or anyone that is not muslims or arab, ask a question about "why do you hate muslims", or "do muslims believe in hate and the devil", and all those silly and irrational questions, most of them aren't removed?!

:)
It's true.I was just tryign to answer a muslim's question about the israelis bombing her village (which is actually a made up story of hers) to help her, but her question was removed. WHY?

This is a follow up question--God destroyed Sodom. God told the Rich young man that he was not perfect. Jesus also differentiates between the "Greatest" commandments. Love God and Love one another. Does this not imply greater and lesser morality, thus sin?

Why all people dont thinks that who created them why he is sent in this world and what are we doing, and what are we expected ? he tends to lead animals life. He disrespects holy prophets and devine books and His revealetions. Alas, may God give us guidance.
