A ho mo sexual man was studying the bible at my workplace...

I asked him if he was pretty religious and he said yeah. Thats pretty weird, because God is against homosexuality...

1 Corinthians Chapter 6 verse 9: What! Do you not know that unrighteous persons will not inherit God's Kingdom? Do not be misled. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men kept for unnatural purposes, nor men who lie with men...

I just wanted to clear this up too, because Ive been hearing a lot of people say that God has nothing against homosexuality.

Do you guys think I should show my co worker this scripture tomorrow or what??

Reread what you quoted and noticed that basically anyone having premarital sex is in the same boat.;)LJS9502_basic

that's exactly what I was going to post :lol:

I think you should let him believe what he wants. Who are you to suggest anything else?MoonSpoon

Let him believe what he wants? Its not me whos suggesting anything. Its god, the god he claims to follow.

I do believe that was written before Jesus came. Which changed everything.Ravirr

Incorrect.

And as everyone knows, abstinence is wrong.

But anyways, you can't tell that God is against homosexuality. Three of many reasons why; (1) The Bible wasn't written by God, so we can't tell (2) There's a chance Jesus could have been homosexual, and God wouldn't hate his own son if he has the capacity to love everyone (3) God must be fine with homosexualitry because if he created everything, then he made humans be able to love each other. So it can't be that wrong.

You've misinterpreted the text and want to preach....the wrong facts...to someone who is undoubtedly familiar with the Bible as he was reading it.

no, no, and no

It's pretty ironic. But most people who follow the Bible break it's rules all the time.PlasmaBeam44

Probably because they're human ;)

Why not think about how many rules in the Bible you break yourself before starting to "show scripture" to other people who are minding their own business? >_>PannicAtack

The thing is you should learn something before you try to say something. I never said IM religious, I used to be, but not anymore. My mom is the one who is religious, and shes the one that found this scripture for me.

Romans 1:26,27:

26 That is why God gave them up to disgraceful sexual appetites, for both their females changed the natural use of themselves into one contrary to nature; 27 and likewise even the males left the natural use of the female and became violently inflamed in their lust toward one another, males with males, working what is obscene and receiving in themselves the full recompense, which was due for their error.

Yea. Last time I pointed that out, they said you go to heaven no matter what as long as you accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior.

According to the bible, premarital sex is just as bad as homosexuality. So, if you're going to condemn homosexuals you might as well condemn people who have sex before they're married...which is almost everyone these days. I think that's what they were getting at. Except, yeah...what does that have to do with anything? :P

[QUOTE="Ravirr"]I do believe that was written before Jesus came. Which changed everything.iwokojance

Yeah I edited due to incorrectness. I wrote out of haste :P

*Sigh* The bible also says you should kill your family if they follow a different religion. It also say that women were created to be amusement for men and that it's a sin to eat pork. I can't really take much of what the bible say seriously.Wetall_basic

WHERE does it say any of these thing besides the last one! And the last one was for Jews! You guys are so... uninformed!

I'm pretty sure your co-worker is well aware of this bit of scripture, as alot of evangelists and such never shut up about it. >_>

Why not let him be? :| Just because he is homosexual, doesn't mean he cannot believe in god or be religious. And don't always follow what the bible says. More like guidelines than actual fact, IMO.ayanami_rei

What are the facts then?

Um excuse me but wtf are you talking about. How did I misinterpret anything? I took those words straight out of the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures. Men who lie with men, wtf else could it mean?

Don't have sex. THAT'S what it means...not your interpretation. Things were a bit more prudish back in the day...

And somewhere in this thread I read somebody stating that Jesus might be homosexual????? WHat!!! How did you come to that conclusion?Lil_Dwayne

Seriously!

Well, Jesus might not have had a wife. And so, that leaves the discussion open for him hiding his wife, him having an affair, lots of possibilities. I'm not saying he was, but still. And I know, it's like saying that oranges could have been yellow, but still.
