Whatever you feel like man

Where my Jews and Muslims at?

Jesus spoke of it once. Do to others as you would have them do to you (Luke 6:31 NIV). He talked about a multitude of things. He talked mostly in parables. He didn't only talk about the Golden Rule. Also, the Golden Rule in the iMtG law isn't the true Golden Rule.

His teachings can be boiled down to obeying iMtG law plus love of His Father. Please note that I said obeying, not the law itself. I do not agree with Jesus' view on judging and punishment, I think we can and should risk it.

I'm curious for the Christians in this thread to answer why there beliefs and bible stories were all taken from the Wiccan like rituals and stories o the religions that came before them. The mesomatamians and Sumerians had identical stories of faith and the means to follow them, and the existed far before even the first instance of anything Christian related. Or the Egyptian stories of the afterlife and sin? Christians just took what they  liked from other older, even ancient religions before them to control the people beneath them of the time. All these are historical facts that you can easily find with a bit of research.

Oh. I didn't read beyond the first page at the time I posted that

The male and female body's were made to fit together. I don't believe gays are born that way. Though neither do they choose it. It happens over a collection of there experiences. It doesn't happen in nature, so it is probably apart from a persons nature to be gay.

How do you explain the guy who was straight had a stroke and then suddenly was gay? Or how do you explain someone who was gay becoming straight?

And gayness does indeed happen in nature. There are many studies done showing animal populations hat have gay animals within them. Happens in most mammal populations, were no exception to natures rule. It's a genetic diversity.

Which makes gayness part of Gods plan. Ergo. Not a sin

Gay animals die without procreating, that's nature's way of getting rid of them

Really hope this isn't a homophobic response. Might have just ruined this whole community for me. I was raised by two mothers who raised me better than most of the population have been.

Piotr is most certainly not in my opinion, more so of a tongue in cheek type of guy

Define 'homophobic response'.

If you are ready to blame the whole of Gathering for what I say, you do not belong here.

Anecdotal evidence is frowned upon here.

But you talking crap on a whole community of people is? And it's not magic getting the hate ere, it's an app ran by a bigot, that I see a problem with.

I define 'natural' as 'occurring in nature as a rule not an exception'. To give you a quick example of my logic, mental illness does happen in nature, but is not a natural attribute of a healthy animal, it is an exception to be mentally ill. Following that definition and logic, gayness is not natural and the theory is further confirmed by the fact that gayness means dead end for the combination of genes which would be responsible for it.

You are guilty of breaking the iMtG Law by insulting me unprovoked, do you have anything to say before I deal punishment?

[Harvest]

Tht was in response to the other post saying it doesn't happen in nature, which like I said many studies have shown it does indeed happen in nature. In not arguing its place in evolution and he furthering of a species, just thy most mammal populations have it happen and still exsist today. It has been happening since the dawn of civilization and maybe even in ancestral times.

30 days ban, get back to us when you learn some civility.

My stance is this: I have nothing against gay people as long as they keep their private stuff private. I will not force anyone to have their sex other than how they prefer, simply because I follow iMtG Law. On the other hand, I do not want homosexuality to be advertised and promoted forcefully, or else.
