      MSGID: 1:153/757.0 abef8e18       REPLY: 1:218/109 63685e8f       TZUTC: -0800       CHRS: LATIN-1 2       > There are some fundies I dont respect, like the lady who lives 10 doors north       > of me who thinks even as a right wing homosexual I may be, Im just as evil as       > an an abortionist. Sick ****.              I was curious, & asked a pastor/scholar I respected, what we need do in        response to homosexuality in this age.              Hew responded by asking me what the greatest commandment is. . . "To love the        Ord our God with all our heart, mind, strength, & soul." I replied.              He surmised that the greatest sin must be brea89n the greatest commandment; I        agreed this was logical.              He went on to point you that ever minute of every day & night we neglect to        devote our ENTIRE feelings, strength, & thoughts unto God, & against a       backdrop of sinning such as that, who are we to worry about a little thing       called homosexuality.              This us one of my key guiding principles with regard to any judgement of        others.              If asked, I respond to homesexual friends that their goal is the same as for        heterosexuak people: live well, honour God, help others, & behave.              &, further, gw does the Bible define homosexuality? Butt-humping -- but gays        get murdered for just holding hands or kissing - that's just plain murder, by        any standards!       '       Ok, the Bible gives Sodom & Gomorrah as examples -- what happened in Sodom?       The people were so sex-crazy, they were willing to rape strangers, just       because they were fresh meat. :(              That's a far cry different sin than holding hands & necking in a public park!        Or any none of anyone's business marital expression of love in the privacy of       a private home.              Only God has authority to judge/condemn. I may be wrong in my leniency, but       it doesn't feel wrong, & if I am, I'll have consequences for teaching       wrongly, but I can only hope I'm judged by the same standard as I judge.              What is a "right-wing homosexual?" You accept the conservative/Republican        platforms, save for any mentions of condemning homosexuality?              Live in peace, my brother.              --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Toy-6        * Origin: The Rusty MailBox - Penticton, BC Canada (1:153/757)       SEEN-BY: 1/19 123 15/0 16/0 19/10 37 90/1 105/81 106/201 120/340 123/130       SEEN-BY: 123/131 129/305 134/100 142/104 153/135 757 7715 203/0 218/700       SEEN-BY: 218/840 221/1 6 360 226/30 227/114 229/110 111 112 113 114       SEEN-BY: 229/206 317 400 424 426 428 470 700 240/5832 266/512 280/464       SEEN-BY: 280/5003 282/1038 301/1 317/3 320/119 219 319 2119 322/0       SEEN-BY: 322/757 326/101 335/364 341/66 234 342/200 396/45 423/81       SEEN-BY: 460/58 712/848 4500/1       PATH: 153/757 221/6 1 320/219 229/426           |
