Welcome to Gaia! ::

I know I'd be offended if I had seen that.... On a van? Really? That van would be run off the road here. I live in an area that's pretty accepting (save for few individuals, bound to be haters everywhere) and many, MANY people would take offense to that.

Everyone interperates the bible their own way and the bible was written by man, so there are differences from the original text. If she could get a hold of the original text before the coppies and say that then I would beleive it. In the beginning when people would copy the bible, people would write notes in the margins. Sometimes those notes would be put into the actual test, therefore revising it. You cannot take the whole bible seriously and word for word because of that unless you have the original 0 text itself. No matter what anyone says, the majority of the bible was written by man, and falls under the whim of man. You must think for yourself to be really in touch with God's and Jesus's teachings

When I see people doing that I can't help but doing something about it :/ last time it happened when I was in Quebec taking some French classes, the teacher was gay and so was half of the group. We went to visit the parliament and there was this mand with propaganda against same-sex marriage, we bombarded him with questions and rational thoughs. He left =D

Sadly, not all react very nicely~ So it's better to be careful.

Exactly. When the bible says that you sould love every one no matter how different they are and then it goes around saying that you should be against people who are homosexual is just contradicting itself. If you truely were a true Christain you wouldn't care if they were homosexual or not. After all, just because they are different from you doesn't mean that they're not human too. They're blood, bone, and flesh as well. Seriously, doen't the bible say to treat others the way you would want to be treated?

Do they honestly make that stuff? I've never seen anti - homosexual stickers. surprised ! New lesson for me.



So do I, but if someone is religious or just doesn't believe in homosexuality sometimes we will get into debates or just laugh at them.

That isn't right. No one should be beaten up because of their sexuality. It happens though. I don't believe someone should be judged based on their sexuality or thought they are perverted because of it. I have close friends who are not straight and you would never guess they were homosexual, lesbian or bisexual. Sexuality is apart of them, not them, themselves. ( Make sence? )



I think there needs to be a balance here. They need to respect people who are homosexual, bisexual and lesbian. But, the people who are bisexual, lesbian and homosexual ( or supporters ) need to respect other people's opinions on the matter as well.

Not everyone is going to be able to accept or even respect the fact that there are different sexualities in the world. But that should be the time where you just shrug your shoulders and say " This is me love me, for me. That is all that I am, that is all you can take. "

"evil" is defined in many ways and I believe also that "evil" is based on different opinions. It's all in the eye of the beholder.


God gave free will to all man. Earth was a gift of free will.
He ( I'll use he, because I am comfortable with that. If you believe other wise, substitute 'he' with your belief. )
created all man in his image. Hence Adam and Eve.
Once Eve and Adam eat ( or took a bite of ) the apple they had created sin.
In God's eyes Homosexuality is perverse. He condemns the sexuality as a sin, but not the person.
He still loves homosexual, lesbians and bisexuals, but curses their sexuality as sin.
He believes no one should cast stones at one another until they have pointed out their own sins in life.
So you are right, for those who are Christian ( Lutheran, Morman etc. ) should know that until they have come clean with their own sins, they should not be so quick to judge other's sins.



Tolerance, Respectfulness, Acceptance and many, many other teachings.
But in the bible, he says that homosexuality is wrong. ( not the person, but the sexuality )
But you are right.
It's the down fall of all religions who take bits and pieces of the bible to better suit their needs.

I am agreeing with you, but also since you were angry when you wrote this, I believe that you needed to be corrected also. You brought up a good issue and I support you main idea. 3nodding

No I am not Christian Or a homosexual hater. I myself am Bisexual, been lesbian, straight then neautral, now I am just...bisexual.

I think that is just wrong. My friend told me abouther friend who got beat up (nearly killed) because he was gay. I'm also going to go with the whole "Love is love' thing. I think that even if you fall in love with someone of your same gender it doesn't matter. It's the love that matters.
