Question

How come homosexuals are allowed to be offended by what us hetrosexuals say about them, but we are not allowed to be offended by what they say or do? It all seems so one sided to me! Is this what the bible means when it says, what was once concidered right will become wrong, and what was wrong will become right!

AuroraDawn, I do not hate anyone and believe all have a right to defend themselves! Most have seemed to miss the point of the question!

Helios you sound like a mindless sheep, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah!!! Don't get yourself all worked up now, just defending myself!

Shawn B I am not whining, and have never been persecuted by homosexuals! Why don't you try to really answer the question!

Answer 1

Unfortunatley they make homos a little above normal people, because some crazy reason no one knows, why are they allowed to have gay parades, that should be forbidden on the first place, no offence on the homos, I don't hate them, but why than don't we have straight parades.Everyone should have equel rights, no exceptions.Homos shouldn't have more rights than straight people.

Answer 2

If a gay man or lesbian woman attacks me for being married to a woman or having children, then I will defend myself.

But you know what? It's never happened.

And yet gays and lesbians are daily ridiculed and despised for being who they are, for loving people of their own gender. It is only right, when someone attacks you for something that you cannot change, to defend yourself.

I encourage you to read the Sermon on the Mount. You might find yourself spending less time worrying about what people do in their bedrooms and more time learning humility, helping the poor, sharing God's love for all.

Peace be with you.

Answer 3

Wait...
It's not ok for anyone to insult each other just because of their sexual orientation. I may not be running a gay parade but I'm not going to insult them for their choices, and I expect the same respect in return.
If I hear a gay guy or girl insult me as a heterosexual then I'll take the high road, but if they did that then it would certainly be ok for someone to want to retaliate. Doing it out of pure hate is never good, on either side. People are so damn judgmental.

Answer 4

This is the Bible's description of homosexuals in Romans 1.
They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

However, I think that the verses just prior describing the lead-in to a homosexual lifestyle are talking about how heterosexuals use money if they worship it as their God.

Verses 23-25 show the "images made to look like mortal human beings and birds and animals and reptiles" on one side of the coin, the body degrading that goes on in the name of coin, and the "created things", elsewhere translated "authority instituted" (by man) in 1 Peter 2:13 on the back of the coin.

Therefore, I think there is the potential for misunderstanding on both sides with a happy compromise. Those who fear God are the ones who stick out because they are not subject to the wrath of God described in verse 18.

How this all happens is that people "suppress the truth by their wickedness." The wicked have no concern about justice for the poor, says Proverbs. Favouritism is a sin, according to the apostle James in chapter 2. Those who suppress truth, not necessarily by lying, but by holding to ideas that are derogatory of the efforts of the poor, find themselves either atheist, or "all roads lead to God" or money-loving or homosexual.

I don't think that people realise what a human is capable of. Somebody's doing the evil. Do you think it's just a big mistake when things go wrong? There's such a thing as people deliberately plotting against others, and I'm not buying that homosexuals "don't mean to offend." The prophets in the Bible show how bad life gets. Here's a sample:
"This is what the LORD says: 'For three sins of Gaza, even for four, I will not turn back [my wrath]. Because she took captive whole communities and sold them to Edom.'"
"Woe to those who plan iniquity, to those who plot evil on their beds! At morning's light they carry it out because it is in their power to do it. They covet fields and seize them, and houses, and take them. They defraud people of their homes,
they rob them of their inheritance."
"who eat my people's flesh, strip off their skin and break their bones in pieces; who chop them up like meat for the pan, like flesh for the pot?"

People just seem to take this stuff as being the drama of life. It's a really big deal. Playing "happy families" doesn't diminish the fact that people get treated like this and the Bible says that homosexuals are doing it, although those who love money are just a hop-step-jump away from it.

This is the only way to be straight in God's eyes. Proverbs 3:5, 6: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."

Answer 5

Heterosexuality and homosexuality are not a good or evil decision. It is all in the genetic makeup of that individual. Get rid of your religious texts and study science and become a better person.

Answer 6

because the things that most religious, homophobic people say about homosexuals are meant to be malicious...if a homosexual offends you, then you can be sure it is not meant to be cruel. look the other way if it bothers you! doesn't your god teach equality, respect, and love of your fellow humyn anyway?

Answer 7
