Andy9o8 3 #51 January 19, 2007 QuoteIt's a good point - the depravity on the internet is not exactly a good example of the human race is it? I think you missed my point. I was waiting for someone to say (or imply) that the end of the world draws nigh because, as in the case of Noah's flood, or Sodom and Gomorrah, the perversity and depravity of the world will cause God to smite us. I don't believe it will happen; I was just waiting for someone to say, in earnest, that it will. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They dont affect me in anyway and I can't see the sin in being with the person that you want to be with. Romans 1:27 does not seem to imply that your neighbors are sinfull.... only men. (.)Y(.)

vortexring 0 #54 January 19, 2007 Ok, point taken. But if you believe in God and the bible, and especially what's said in the book of Revelation, then armageddon does seem more likely to be knocking on our doors anytime soon. Complete disbelief in religion doesn't really change the likelihood of the event. A little example is the rapidly reducing polar icecap. We're in the shit. Fact!

billvon 3,132 #62 January 19, 2007 >Because it is an abomination to God. Eh, so was believing the earth was round. So was interracial marriage. So was letting women speak in church. Some day it won't be "an abomination to God" and people will laugh at the suggestion. Some like to believe that the morals of a given religion are fixed, but in fact they have evolved with society over the ages. That will continue.

Matthew 24: 12 For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.

Amazon 7 #64 January 19, 2007 QuoteSexual orientation is not a lifestyle; I still do not get what the hell the homosexual lifestyle is.....I dont get it... In a whole bunch of the world( South Asia and India for example) there is a prevelence of HOMOSOCIETAL( not just homsexual) pressure.. guys hang and bang with guys.. until they marry. If this was going to bring on the end of the world you would think that between ROME and the GREEKS and a whole bunch of other societies back a little closer to when christ waled the earth.. that fire and brimstone woulda been flying a hell of a lot.

vortexring 0 #65 January 19, 2007 Well there is certainly an element of logic on your statement, but using the Afghan bum nights as an example - in their eyes it's not a homosexual relationship the fact their bumming some lad without a beard. To live together as a man and 'wife' would be regarded as homosexual and sinful. Which is an abomination. If every male became homosexual, what happens to the human race? It's fucked up. Wrong.

But if you believe in God and the bible, and especially what's said in the book of Revelation, then armageddon does seem more likely to be knocking on our doors anytime soon. You don't believe that there have existed societies just as or more perverted than our current society. Why would armageddon be knocking on our door anytime sooner than it was during those societies? QuoteThis know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy. Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof; from such turn away. 2 Timothy 3:1-5 All of these traits have been displayed in earlier societies to the same if not greater extent than our current society and yet armageddon did not take place."That looks dangerous."

billvon 3,132 #67 January 19, 2007 >I still do not get what the hell the homosexual lifestyle is . . . . For anti-gay types it's a decision that gays make to be deviant, usually just to be difficult or to attempt to undermine the pinnings of society that we all rely on. It's generally one step below "the militant gay agenda" which is apparently an attempt to force all people to be gay and to swish when they walk. For everyone else it's getting up in the morning, brushing your teeth, taking a shower, going to work, paying bills etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suspect there would rapidly evolve a very brisk business in selling sperm to lesbian couples who want kids. (Keep in mind even lesbian women can have kids.) Population would undoubtedly go down, which in my mind is a very good thing. Imagine a world where the only people who have kids are people who want them, not people who have accidents.

It does make it fun to make a pass at them though.. just to see if they are more on the bi side than on the gay side........
