>>>>Yeah whatever dude. It's not the first time you've pulled the cop out with me when the discussion got difficult. The plain simple truth here is that you're stance towards gays and lesbians is discriminatory and bigoted. You can attempt to justify it with our religion all you want but that doesn't change the facts does it? If you don't want to admit then fine. If you think such behavior is acceptable in this day & age then you got a problem.

>>>God does not change, Victor. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. It is the enemy leading men's thinking toward "acceptance" and "tolerance" of those things God has said are an abomination. But even so, and even though they are those things by His own decree, He still made a way out ... that everyone who will hear His voice can be saved. No exceptions, no matter then sin or apparent "degree of sin."
>>
>>Right - as long as you repent your sins and conform to bigotry. WTF acceptance and tolerance - as long as god says it's ok? If he does not then unacceptance and intolerance is required? That kind of defeats the whole concept of the words 'tolerance' and 'acceptance' Rick. I understand that your religion seems to think you can have it both ways - but in reality the end result is as a person, a member of society, this makes you a prejudicial, injurious person who is detrimental to the social well being and health for all of humanity. I mean come on - this is how wars get started man.

>The grandmother of a gang member standing at the door, arms out, crying, crying out, "Don't go! Don't go!" as the member goes to a fight he may never return from. She stands there knowing the danger, knowing what is the correct course, knowing the repeated teaching she's given him continually. It is obvious to everyone outside the gang that such a fight only has victims, and there are no winners. But as the member leaves, the grandmother calls out, "I love you. I'll be here."

>She cannot participate or go with him because what he's doing is wrong. But the love she feels, the sadness in her heart, the fear over what might come in the fight ... these are real pulls at her heart, mind, soul, spirit. She feels the pain of anguish over it all, doing her best, but knowing ultimately it is in God's hands.
>
>It is like that for the believer seeing non-believers head off into falseness, sin, and ultimately their eternal destruction if they don't repent. The pain, the anguish, these are real, and they bring the believer to his knees in prayer.

>Wisdom cries aloud in the street. She lifts her voice for the discerning. But so does Folly. A person hears both, and chooses which one to follow.
