If our sexual morality comes from Christianity, how can homosexuality be considered moral in our society?

Answer 1

Good question Mack

It cannot and is not. It is a trick of the enemy satan to destroy God's creation order. Two men cannot produce a baby they can only adopt one and pervert his or her life after their kind. Everything reproduces after its kind and homosexuality is not Gods kind it is satans kind. It is not natural it is demonic.

Romans 1:27 (NLT)
And the men, instead of having normal sexual relationships with women, burned with lust for each other. Men did shameful things with other men and, as a result, suffered within themselves the penalty they so richly deserved.

Answer 2

I assume you're from the USA.

In which case your forefathers figured this one out, they divided church and state. There's religious morals and legal morals now, and they're seperate.

In other words, your forefathers understood that there's more to life than religion.

Also now the USA is diverse, so you cannot apply the morals from one religion onto people who do not belong to said religion. But you can hold them to the legal morals, which cover everyone equally, regardless.

It's a good idea I think. Religion can give you personal guidelines, the government gives you community guidelines.

Brilliant really.

Answer 3

I tend to follow what I know to be right or wrong as the basis for my morality. Lying, stealing, cheating, harming others, are all obviously bad, therefore I don't do them. If you really read the bible, you will find some so called moral acts that are stunningly evil and mean. I don't find much of a moral message in a book that condones sacrificing people, beating your children and wife, etc. Thanks, but no thanks.

Answer 4

I don’t necessarily agree with your statement but I do believe that religion does affect the sexual morality of many people. However, if you pose this question, you must also ask why people still have sex out of wedlock, why people cheat on their spouses and why people still get abortions. I don’t think it is fair to pick out one aspect of sexual morality.

Answer 5

This religion **** is such crock. Regardless of what you believe, you're gonna do what you want anyway. People, especially christians pick the rules they wish to follow. Every christian female i know has their ears peirced and the bible has rule against that. People call the lords name in vein all the time. And people lie all the time. And these sins are accepted in society. So let people live their lives the way they want. freedom for all.

Answer 6

WHAT. Where the hell does that come from. Stealing is morally wrong. Hitting your kids is morally wrong. Making fun of those less fortunate is morally wrong. Being in love with someone is not morally wrong. GO GET LAID!!

Answer 7

My sexual morality doesn't come from Christianity.

Answer 8

Well, my sexual morality doesn't come from christianity, because I'm not christian.

Even if I were, true christianity does not regard homosexuality as any more immoral than heterosexuality.

Answer 9

Our sexual morality does not come from christianity, so your question is pointless.

Answer 10

Christianity can't even agree on it's own morality.

Answer 11

Whoever said that Christianity defined the morals for the whole world?

God makes people LGBT or straight, green- or blue-eyed, left- and right-handed, etc. No variation is more "right" or "moral" than any other - they are just human variations.

What I WOULD consider immoral is preaching bigotry, hatred, discrimination and therefore violence against LGBT people, and then calling one's self "christian." We pray every day for such hypocrites to return to Jesus' teachings and the light.
