wow, blessedwithlife......I have done extensive research on serial killers, nice that you left you all the str8 guys who kill chicks and children.
The media just doesn't like to sensationalize the others, they like the latent homosexual slant.
Besides almost all of the killers you names where REPRESSED homosexuals, when someone uses the word "latent" as is to describe these sick guys, it means that no one knew, and they had to carry on with women and swollow their feelings to hide from society.

Not wrong, but a sin. Wrong implies our cultural belief, and our culture believes that what you do in your bedroom is your own business. However, the Bible does clearly state in several places that homosexuality is sin:
1Co 6:9-10
Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
Romans1:27
In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
There are others in the Old Testament as well. However, we should note that no sin is greater than Jesus' sacrifice, and no sin is greater than another in His eyes. Hope this helps!

I consider folks can consider loose to have the opinion that they wish. They must be ready to precise there opinion, and people who pay attention (which must be plenty of folks) must have an open brain, and possibly difference there opinion. Some critiques would possibly not become some thing, but it surely doesnt imply there nugatory. Even if no person treasures your opinion, you must. Its what makes you who you're.

Leviticus 20:13
" 'If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.
Maybe we should have Y!A post it on the site page so that this question doesn't get asked again.
Now to the point of it all.
It's not that we sin that we are sinners. I myself am a Bisexual Christian. I admitted to God when I got saved that I am a sinner, and that hasn't changed.
But the way God looks at me is different. I am saved through the sacrifice of Jesus along with the trust in Him that I hold. It didn't stop making me a sinner, but it did make me a saved sinner.
So it isn't important as to what your sin is, it is important who you are trusting in. It's that simple.
So I wouldn't harp on someone who sins, I attempt to preach the Gospel, like us Christians are supposed to do.
The Gospel is: Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ who delivers people from their sins. If you do that, you also will be saved, homosexual or not.

It is natural. I think let homosexuals have the same rights as the rest of us. Who is anyone to say that the love between two people is wrong? Religion should have no say on the laws.

Homosexuality is wrong, duh.
Lev. 18:22, "You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination."
Lev. 20:13, "If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltness is upon them."
1 Cor. 6:9-10, "Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals1, 10nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God."
Rom. 1:26-28, "For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, 27and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. 28And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper."

I think homosexuals should not be afraid of being who they are and people should stop telling them how they should live. It's nobody else's business but theirs alone.

The view of the bible is meaningless to me. The gay people I know are good people. That's all that matters to me.

i believe that homosexuality is NOT a sin, and that premarital sex is also NOT a sin. the only sins related to sex are rape and other forms of nonconsenting sexual activity.
as for gender identity, homosexuality is no more evil or sinful than heterosexuality or bisexuality or transgenderism (?), to me. but i'm sure many committed religious people will disagree. i'm agnostic.

i think its wrong and should be a sin to:
try to invade a couples private life by saying they cant get married.
and to say that it is unnatural to act a certain way (the way they were naturally born for instance).
