question about christian view of homosexuality

[Oneironaut]

My God doesn't give a shit. My Lord doesn't care. The more queers, the less we have to worry about overpopulation.

edit:Dear God I Believe In You, Dear God I trust In You, Dear God I Love You. Amen.

Again, you're picking and choosing which parts of the Bible you want to believe in without any real guidelines. If you're going to use the Bible as a moral guide, you can't throw out some of the rules just because you don't like them. If you're not going to accept the Bible's wacky claims that God views homosexuality as an abomination, how can you accept its equally wacky claims that Jesus is the son of God and a virgin? Where in it does God say "I was just kidding about that gay stuff, but Jesus really is divine"?

Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.

Thou shalt not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a dog, into the house of the LORD thy God for any vow: for even both these are abomination unto the LORD thy God.

And there were also sodomites in the land: and they did according to all the abominations of the nations which the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.

For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.

Oneironaut Reviewed by Oneironaut on 11-08-2005. question about christian view of homosexuality I was just thinking, in christianity (and probably a bunch of other monotheistic religions) god is very against homosexuality and generally condemns you to hell for poking someone in the ass. might I ask why? is there some consequence, some harm done to god or society or somebody if you stick your penis in somebody's anus? what's the whole reason behind this ruling, or is it just accepted "because god said it" with no real reason given?
