Come on now Tori, don't get so easily riled.

Tori, no need for drastic measures! I'm sure you know - one of the best things about the internet is also one of the worst - the meeting of disparate minds. If you just take a step back you can see how funny it all is.
All apart from PKMN's Faye Dunaway accolade description. |

But... but... that doesn't make any sense...
For fear of being ridiculed and misquoted, this is my last post on this topic. The closest thing to compare it to is adultery. While I do support the state allowing same sex-marriages, homosexuality, from a strictly biblical standpoint, is wrong. While this may sound homophobic, I assure you that I am not. I have many close friends that are gay, and I even live in midtown Atlanta. |

Oh, gosh, am I lowering the discourse in this enlightened discussion? ::rolls eyes::
Mister, I apologize now that I know you are a "real" person. Your posts were so unintelligible (no offense) I thought they were being produced by a spammer.
As for Mr. Stupid, the worst thing about his views on homosexuality is he has produced a beautifully wrought double-bind for gays. Mr. Stupid: "You can't have sex out of marriage (adulterer! let me throw a stone!) & though I don't personally condemn gay marriage, in the actually existing world it is unlikely you will be able to marry. So keep your things to yourself, gay people, or you can rot in hell (for adultery, that is)." |

I think I may be misunderstanding the use of the word adultery in this context - as I know it adultery is specifically having sexual relations with someone who is married, its got nothing to do with sex before marriage. |

That is correct. I was saying that I see it as the equivelant of adultery, not that it is literally adultery, althoguh I ws not clear on this. And george, gay people will not go to hell for being gay. If they are saved then they will go to heaven. Faith alone determines this, not works.
This thread is evil. If I answer, I' get ridiculed but if I don't answer I seem ignorant. |

If I may be permitted to add to Mr. Stupid's defense:
What it boils down to is, whatever his personal views are (and I don't agree with all of them), he allows those around him to live according to their own conscience. I hope the rest of you are broad-mined enough to extend him the same courtesy.

Thank you! I could not have said it better myself. |

This thread is hilarious! It cracked me up catching up on the overnight rants.
Given that NZ have just beaten England in their World Cup match it's been a good start to the day. |

Ha ha! That cracked me up. I'm not being entirely serious but you're right, I am getting slightly annoyed for no good reason.

No way, not by me. Whatever gets you through the day is my dictum - good on you for having the balls to stand by your convictions though Mr Stupid. These boards have been particularly militant these past weeks and it occurs to me that a bit of mutual understanding wouldn't go amiss, particularly when it comes to trivial things. People are killing each other all over the world right now because they think they are absolutely right and their "enemy" is wrong. How sad is that?
On a lighter note -

Sorry to unintentionaly imply that you would. Although I was replying to your post, I was refering to the person that started this completely unrelated topic with the purpose of ridiculing me. Admittingly, I should have been more clear about that.
