he's a loony that Ahmedinajad isn't he? How your society bargains with "distinction" is an illustration of ways loony your united states of america is. Its no longer approximately Islam nonetheless - Mugabe's Zimbabwe has an identical mindset to homosexuality - deny it exists. Denial is the foremost be conscious, i think of they're all interior the closet. there are a lot of non Muslim homophobes around - in basic terms seem at countless the posts at here.

No he isn't following the "OT". It would seem that a bit of education is needed here.
The law against homosexuality applied ONLY to Jewish males. And sex with another male wasn't actually the sin. Spilling seed was the sin. Spilling seed, in Judaism, is equivalent to murdering the entire next generation of Jews, and is an abomination, and completely forbidden.
This law NEVER applied to non-Jews, and there were no punishments or penalties given to non-Jews who had homosexual sex with each other.
This law also did not apply to Jewish women. Women have no seed to spill, therefore the law did not apply to them. There were no punishments or penalties for women who had sex with each other. It was thought of as immodest, but that's about it.
So you can see how far Christianity has twisted this law and made it something that it isn't, for themselves and all non-Jews when it never even applied to them in the first place. Disgusting, huh.
As far as Iran's President, he would be following Islam's laws concerning homosexuals, where they are often killed on the spot. And in Islam it IS the act of sex that is the crime, unlike in Judaism where the crime is actually the spilling of seed and not the sex itself.
And Christians can whine and cry all they want and say that none of this is true. Tough. It is true, it's Torah law, and it never applied to you in the first place, and jesus never freed you from it - you can't be freed from something you were never bound by.

What about the Hindu's? The Pagans? The atheists? Or are you just singling out Christians to validate your own illogic? I'm pretty sure no Christian would approve of such things. Do you? Maybe you do and secretly have a need to get at least one Christian to justify your secret belief that Iran is justified in doing this atrocity.

I don't and I'm a Christian but I say live and let live. I'm straight so I married a woman. If Joe down the street is gay so what, whatever floats his boat. People should mind their own business.
That's stupid if that's true. Jesus said whoever has not sinned can throw their stone and they all dropped their stones, something like that. He is murdering people and will answer to God.

What homosexuals? There are no homosexuals in Iran. They don't have that phenomenon in their country. Actually, what they have is a lot of dead homosexuals and homosexuals who have not been able to admit who they are for fear of joining their brothers and sisters in that fate.

no I don't agree with the execution of anyone. We are to love everyone as Jesus has loved us. Only the one perfect person may cast the first stone and even he out of love would not do so. However this does not mean that we are to condone everything they say or do. You can love a person without necessarily loving their actions.

I'm sure that the nut case Fred Phillps invited him over for dinner.
And yes the really fanatical ones would have agreed with Iran's president comments.

Yes, it used to be okay to kill homosexuals THAT ACTED on their impulses, but the price of sin was death for everything and that is what people ignore.
Jesus came and changed all that so the law is different now. Read the Bible for once in your life.

i heard that on ABC World News a couple of hours ago.
they are so strong in their tradition and their religion they are brainwashed by hate. now i can understand if they are against the life style but murdering people is just wrong and he was out of line when he made that statement.
bigirv: i will never support such acts. i will never support murder. you know nothing about me to judge me.
