Mod-Sanctioned LGBT Rights & Issues Thread

[Blasveck]

Is heterosexuality a lifestyle as well then?

Yep

So why does this matter?

That isn't the Bible. The five books of Moses are the Torah, which is Jewish scripture and has nothing to do with Christianity.

It's apart of the Holy Bible, specifically the Old Testament...so yeah...it kinda does.

No, it kinda doesn't. If you knew anything about Christianity, you would know that the old law was fulfilled with the coming of Christ and has abso-fucking-lutely nothing to do with Christianity.

I wish it would be.

I mean, it would be cool to have straight pride parades where you can actually find nice girls (guys for the girls) to hook up with, rather than just some angry, gay-hating conservatives.

Hmm. Maybe we should start setting stuff like that up. "Straight and Proud But We Don't Hate for Who You Bang".

I've seen similar sub-parades during Gay Prides. They tend to blend with the Straight Ally wagons.

[Risottia]

Marriage is a union for the purpose of procreation, last time I checked,

Where exactly did you check? Because your books seem to be spewing a lot of bullshit.

Yes, I want the exact quote, author, title, edition and ISBN.

[Lacertus fidelitas]

yes

[Oil exporting People]

Yes I believe it should be legal. Preventing gays from getting married is wrong. Love is Love, no matter what gender, race, etc.

But Homosexuality isn't natural. The entire reason we have genders is to sexually reproduce, and obviously same sex couples can't naturally carry on their genes. Gay men can't at all, and Lesbians only can due to artificial insemination.

You know, I don't really get why LGBT people still use the term "straight". Using that would imply that heterosexuality is the normal sexuality and non-heterosexuals are abnormal.

Hahahahhahaha no. #SpermBanks

[Malacium]

Yes.

[Threlizdun]

No, there is no explicit condemnation of homosexuality found anywhere within the Bible.

Here's one: Leviticus 18:22

That offers condemnation of two men lying together in the bed of woman, which can either be taken as the cultural significance of a woman's bed as separate from that of a man's or to condemn the practice of having sexual relations with a man in the bed of your wife, which would be a condemnation of adultery more than anything else. No, there is no explicit condemnation of homosexuality itself, just practices that would otherwise be considered sinful at the time that happened to be occuring between members of the same sex.

[Thori]

Yep

So why does this matter?

You tell me. You're the one who questioned me in the first place. Frankly I didn't expect people to question my term referring to lifestyle.

[Republic of Greater America]

No. Gay people should not be subject to the torture called marriage. inb4modsmuteme

Sometimes I'm scared to tell people I'm a christian on here. Even if I do support gay marriage.

I don't see why it matters whether it's natural or not. Your computer isn't natural. Your house isn't natural. A good 90% of everything you have ever used isn't natural. But this, this is the single allegedly unnatural thing that we can't allow.

[Oil exporting People]

You're defeating your own argument.

So even though you admitted the Old Testament is filled with the coming of CHRIST, it still has nothing to do with CHRISTianity? Also, if it has nothing to do with Christianity, than why is it in the Christian Bible?

Your computer isn't natural. Your house isn't natural.

Why not, exactly? The making of all of those things requires substances found in nature and humans are natural.

Don't be afraid of declaring your religion, man. If there's something that irks me, it's the people who think that Christian = automatically against LGBT equality.

Someone put it there. It was a compilation of religious texts discovered throughout history and put together.

I said it was fulfilled. Do you know what the word fulfilled means? Christ's coming ended the relevance of the Old Testament's laws, and just because the OT is still wasting space in the Bible that doesn't make it holy.

Using your computer and the internet is not natural. Please stop now.

[Wisconsin9]

Your computer isn't natural. Your house isn't natural.

Why not, exactly?

You show me a computer that was constructed without human involvement at any level and I will gladly take back what I said. A plastic and silicon computer, not one like our brains.

GM food isn't natural, the mule is unnatural and they are living.

[Carto-Geography]

I see that you follow the European Model of the world, which treats humans as bags of cells that should be made as happy as possible before they die, which isn't a big deal in the EM, because the EM doesn't believe in God or morality. If you can prove that you do not follow that model, I would be glad.

So if you god says you should harm all woman, would you then allow and do that?

Because you god told that?

But got any proof you god then told that besides from just a book who is not even written by god?!

But that's irrelevant because God never told anyone to harm women, just because they are women. Yes, he has had evil women killed, but also evil men. By the way, you might want to freshen up on your English, Dutchman. Its "your" not "you", "God" not "god" and "women" not "woman", and that's before you add in the nonsensical sentence structure.
