Christians/anybody: I am thinking again, if homosexuality was never written or talked about in the Scriptures

Question

Would you still believe that it was a sin or unnatural?

I think I would still find it odd.

Answer 1

It is in the scriptures:

NASB
1 Timothy 1:8-11

But we know that the Law is good, if one uses it lawfully, realizing the fact that law is not made for a righteous person, but for those who are lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers and immoral men and homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound teaching, according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, with which I have been entrusted.

Answer 2

The only way homosexuality would not have been written about in the scriptures would be if Adam and Eve had never sinned. And yes, I would very much still reject that practice.

Answer 3

Life is full of choices and when we find it pleasing to the flesh we accept it and go with it and then the Holy Spirit tries to show us it is wrong and we have a decision to make either follow what is telling us what is wrong or what is right and a lot of times we over ride the right answer and follow the pleasing of the flesh instead of following what the Spirit of God is telling us, So that is were the sin is at that point the spirit will convict or hearts but were we are not strong enough in God we go with the pleasing of flesh.

Answer 4

It was mentioned in the scriptures in Leviticus (18:22) "You shall not lie with a male as with a woman" Also, in all of the writings about not having sex for fun, part of that can be pushed toward homosexuality because of them not being able to produce children from their intimate relations.

Answer 5

Yes I would. Evidence against the unnaturalness of homosexuality is in everything. Ever heard that opposites attract?

Answer 6

If it was never talked about in the bible and if Jesus never had said it was wrong then I think it would not be a sin. But I would still choose not to gay. I only go by what is in the bible ...I don't add or take things out.

Answer 7

What if there was no gravitational force, would you still think flying was an amazing feat? What if there was no such thing as eyes? Would you have any objection to wearing white after labor day?
What if games are pointless because they assume the unreal is real to reshape the universe for the sake of argument.

Answer 8

Well you're probably not gay. I find a lot of sexual activities odd; it's not just homosexuality. However, I don't condemn people for whatever stuff they want to do consensually with each other.

And actually as I addressed in my most recent question Jesus never says a thing about homosexuality so I don't know what the big deal is.

Answer 9

It would still be considered unnatural. From a purely "natural" aspect, the purpose of sex is procreation. That fact that humans enjoy sex is above it's natural purpose.

Since, the purpose of sex is procreation, then sexual acts that could never result in conception are unnatural.

Answer 10

Yes ,because if it wasnt mentioned in the Bible, everything that God had formed and created toward His plan would be a lie on His behalf. God created man & woman to unite & procreate. Man & man could not do it nor woman w/woman. God designed our systems to work in accordance to the opposite sex. I agree with you in it still being weird for far more reasons than these.

Answer 11

No, because Sin is a creation of Man, all is cause and effect in the universal plan, and all actions (regardless of positive or negative in our view) contribute to the universal plan.
I reckon people should stop worrying about others and concentrate on their own lives, and worry about the consequences of their own actions, not others.
