The Bible is clear on homosexuality. You can look it up. ROTFLMFAO!!
At least that's what modern conservative media says. And they say absolutely nothing about trans people.

And not particularly religious but most Christians see Jesus' teachings as being preeminent over the old testament so a real Christian would see the "Love thy neighbour" guy as more significant than why Sodom and Gomorrah ere trashed.

I'm not Christian, but I did read the Christian Scriptures and the homosexuality is not kosher under any circumstances. The father of Christian theology, St. Paul, is cristal clear on the issue. BTW, I've seen the use of "Love thy neighbor " as an excuse before. Following that line of reasoning is not very wise as it skirts the dogmatic foundation of the prohibition. It's a clever gimmick that is nothing but an excuse. We have that also in Judaism, where some say that homosexuality is not forbidden, only the homosexual ACT itself is forbidden. Technically correct, but in the context of the whole written cannon , it is obviously an erroneous position. As for trans. How can they say anything about trans ? The Judeo Christian teachings only recognize two sexes.

Hmm. So why is it that mandy's sources say otherwise?

BTW. St. Pauls quotes condemn adulterers, fornicators, and whoremongers as well as sodomites. Something about glass houses applies to anyone on this site who selects only parts of a sentence to back (and ignoring sodomy when doing anal or oral with women).

There's only one source- the Scriptures. Everything else is an opinion. It's one of the reasons Christians have so many denominations- they sometimes confuse the two.

And it goes against what you claim. But you have no comment on St. Paul condemning all of terb's adulterers, fornicators, and whoremongers?

Are you hoping I go senile so I'd have to put effort into refuting your garbage?

And really funny to see who pays for sex with men dressed as women supports St. Paul's condemnation of "Fornicators, idolaters, adulterers, male prostitutes, sodomites, ..."

He recanted his apology for being anti gay a couple of days ago and said that God hates gays and God is totally right. So he's gone.


TORONTO — The Toronto Blue Jays cut pitcher Anthony Bass on Friday, one day after the right-handed reliever said he didn’t think an anti-LGBTQ social media post he shared last month was hateful. The move came hours before Bass was set to catch a ceremonial first pitch from Toronto LGBTQ activist leZlie Lee Kam before Friday’s game against Minnesota as the Blue Jays begin their fourth annual Pride Weekend celebration. The team now has seven days to trade Bass or put him on waivers.

Bass apologized before a May 30 game against Milwaukee, one day after sharing a post on his Instagram calling for anti-LGBTQ boycotts of Target and Bud Light over support they showed for the LGBTQ community. Both companies are dealing with fallout from those campaigns, which have included hostile and homophobic criticisms and calls from LGBTQ activists not to cave to the pressure.

Bass, who was booed by Toronto fans in his two home appearances since the apology, spoke to members of the media before Thursday’s win over Houston, saying he stood by his “personal beliefs.”

So Judas took the 30 pieces of silver, gave it to the temple and hung himself while the temple bought a field with it.
He also took 30 pieces of silver, bought a field himself and fell headlong into it bursting open.

Yeah I think I will take a pass on that.

Also
"If a man commits adultery with another man's wife... both the adulterer and the adulteress are to be put to death."
Leviticus 20:10,
"If a man is found sleeping with another man's wife, both the man who slept with her and the woman must die."
Deuteronomy 22:22
"Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death."
Exodus 21:17, Leviticus 20:9
"Do not allow a sorceress to live."
Exodus 22:18,
"A man also or woman... that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death"
Leviticus 20:27,
I wonder, if you weigh as much as a duck, can you claim to be a witch and not covered by these rules.

"Whoever sacrifices to any god other than the Lord must be destroyed."
Exodus 22:20,
"For six days, work is to be done, but the seventh day shall be your holy day, a day of sabbath rest to the Lord. Whoever does any work on it is to be put to death."
Exodus 35:2,
"If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman... They are to be put to death"
Leviticus 20:13
"Anyone who blasphemes the name of the Lord is to be put to death. The entire assembly must stone them."
Leviticus 24:16


So if you arn't going on a killing spree every Sunday at Timmies and other fast food places, you are making the lord thy god very very angry. Never mind killing homosexuals, and most of us here [I mean we don't screen for marriage do we]
Just kidding, god is a fictional character, but you are full of it.

LOL!! And???? Did you forget to refute the point I made that homosexuality is forbidden in Jewish and Christian religions? Not to mention Islam?
