is homosexuality really a sin?

your right beeeckie,
it is very hard to respect it,
but possible none the less,
you must understand that some of these people i know,
that are homosexuals are family member's that i love dearly,
and i would not want them to change a thing about who they are,
when you respect something,
you accept it for what it is,
you do not force it to change,
so yes it is hard to accept those of my family,
but i do,
when you look past the choices and lives that they live,
they are still human.

I'm so sorry you are so blinded. That is really sad you are stuck in that mindset.

in my oppinion,
a curse is something that causes us great pain,
and kills us and our love'd ones in the end.
allow me to ask you lotterylover,
has homosexuality caused you or your love'd ones great physical pain?
has it killed anyone in your house hold?
god intended us to be and do alot of things,
and many of his intentions we have failed to achieve,
if homosexuality is truly a sin,
then let god do the punishing,
however if it is not,
and you are like me, who can accept it,
but not choose to be part of it,
then allow your self to be content with the world,
and the various people with in it

I feel that homosexual have caused great pain and suffering not to themselves but to others. A boy we know tried to kill himself even though all his friends accepted him the way he was. I understand that aids came from homosexual activities. That certainly has caused pain and suffering. The problem with that is that other humans have had to suffer, also, like new born babies. It is one thing to turn your face to these problems around us but another thing to make it O.K. by law. That is when God decides it is time to step in.
The Israelists were always getting punished because of straying away from God's laws. I know God punished the world because of men following unnatural laws with other men and he will do it again. In fact one of the signs of the end is that the world would be like it was in the days of Noah and I personally don't want to suffer along with them but the innocent always suffer right along with the guilty.

hello lottery lover,
did this child belive at heart that homosexuality was a sin? i remeber one of my patients once told me of how he knew he were going to hell once he died and how guilty he felt because his orientation was that of a homosexual. and then i asked him, "well what makes you think it is so wrong?" and he replyed, "because that is what my parents taught me, and it is what everyone tells me when i try to talk to someone about it" he was very suicidal and he showed evidence of self harm.

my point to this is, if homosexuality is infact a natural change in the body. and people reject these natural changes inwhich occurs. then the person will (if dealing with enough rejections) develop psychological problems dealing with his mind and health. this child that tried to kill himself, everyone accepted his change and yet he still tried to comit suicide, then this tells me that he was infact pressured into beliving that his change and his intentions are wrong. now which is worse, having a different nature than other's or killing your self.
one is found in the bible and is infact a camandment, however the other is not and isn't. please leave more, i would love to hear more of how you feel about this matter and have a great day!

take care -oldokami patriot of life!

I have a feeling you are like my daughter when she was young. She so wanted to believe that there was a real Santa Clause that she made up stories about how she saw him. You don't want to believe that there is a higher power that if He were to come to you and show you, you probably wouldn't believe. That is what the rulers did in Christ day. They said, "Show us and we will believe"
Christ knew it would not change their harden hearts so He didn't do any miracles just for them. If there is evil in the world then I would have to think there was a counterpart. If there wasn't a higher power controlling evil then we would not be here anymore. There were a lot of people who saw Jesus in His day and Paul had plenty to say about Him after he was struck down on the road to Damacus.

thanks for your reply!
if you don't mind me asking,
do you know which verse,
says that homosexuality is a sin?
because i know that it doesn't say that in the ten commanments,
and from where i've read in the new testament,
jesus christ never said to any one it was a sin.
but perhaps there was something i over read,
maybe you could tell me where it says this in the bible?
thanks agin and please feel free to leave more comments!

Lev 18:22, 18:29 and Roman 1:24-32 are a few I found.

its also states in the very begining of the bible, when go made men and women, that a man would leave his family to be with his wife.... notice it says wife and not husband.. if god intended there to be homosexuals i am sure he would have said wife or husband but he did not in any ways leave it open... and i am srry it took so long to reply i was away for a while and just returned

thank you all for your responses,
this is all most helpfull,
and thank you raven lady especially,
i respect people for who they are,
wether i agree with they're choices or not,
after all, when you look past apearances and actions,
people are still just people
so when it comes to homosexuality,
i have great respect for any who has chosen this life to live,
i just feel it is a life i would rather not have.
