This 질문 is for Christians only. (Or at least people who know a fair bit about Christianity, who should put themselves in Christians' shoes.)

I was raised Catholic which I guess is the same thing as Christian, but I chose not to be Catholic 또는 have any religion anymore due to a lot of reasons... But anyways I know a lot about religion because I went to Catholic school for like 10 years so I guess I can answer your 질문 to what I believe in, I'm not homosexual but I'm completely supportive and respective to those that are, I don't think people should forbid 또는 look down on homosexuality, they are people just like 당신 and me and I don't think its fair to say is unnatural and wrong just because someone is attracted to the same sex, if there really is a God(which I'm not sure if there is 또는 isn't but believe what 당신 want) then I would think God would want people treat everyone as an equal, because we are all equal. If your Christian and your supportive 또는 당신 believe that its ok for people to be homosexual then I think that makes 당신 a better Christian than someone who is biased towards homosexuality, so no I don't think it makes 당신 a bad person if your homosexual 또는 if 당신 support those that are.!

As of homosexuality, I do think it's a sin. But, I do not look down on those who are gay/lesbian/everything else included there and say "OH my gosh, you're gay, you're going to rot in hell for eternity." Homosexuality is a sin, along with murder, lying, stealing, etc. God loves the person, but hates the sin.

This picture explains everything I have to say on the matter. I am an Atheist myself, but this woman makes a very compelling argument.

Technically, in the Bible it says that man and woman were made to 사랑 each other. But I don't think that means that God would look down on 당신 if ur a Christian and also gay. See when ur gay ur kind of breaking God's law of phsyics but since He loves u so much and u are a Christian, He will forgive u of that sin.
I respect that u r gay (if u r) but it doesn't mean that God won't 사랑 u still. God loves all of his children UNCODITIONALLY!!!! I think He will forgive u for being gay. (If u r)

I hate it when people say that God hates gays because its not true. God loves everybody. Yes I know in the Bible it says that a man and a women should make 사랑 but this is what I belive.

I don't see anything wrong with homosexuality. Even though the bible speaks against it, we must remember that the bible was written 의해 man who claim it to be the word of God. There are some things I just have to question.

I'm not really a Christian, and I wasn't going to answer this question, but I wanted to post this song because it's all about gay rights, etc.

I feel the same way. I'm a Christian and I feel that is wrong for anyone to treat anyone of LGBT and such in a disturbing way. In my opinion 기독교 is a faith where 당신 should accept your neighbor and 당신 shouldn't ostracize them. Homophobes declaring they hate gays because of their religion is defeating the purpose of Christainity. 당신 shouldn't hate. 예수님 tells everyone to 사랑 their neighbor and not hate. There are certain instances in the bible where it does say homosexuality is a sin. But here's something that we should also take in mind. The people back then were interpreting God's will. Who know they could have easily fabricated that law to suit their own means. There are so many things that was illegal in back when the bible that everyday people do. And that includes using pigskin,masturbation,women having rights,giving everyone human rights.

Back then it was lawful for one to kill 당신 if 당신 did a major infraction whether 또는 not they had proof 또는 not. So many things have changed and do not completely adhere to the 이전 texts. Why should homosexuality be different? Plus they cannot help they they feel 또는 they are born as. It's like telling me being a male is a sin because it was described in a book. Whether 또는 not 당신 believe homosexuality is a sin 당신 should still give them their rights. The BIBLE is an interpretation of God's word. What's to say the interpretors didn't get it completely correct?

Being gay doesn't say you're a bad person. I have gay 프렌즈 and they're nicer than the straight ones. That's a total garbage.

As a Christian, I support gays and people of "irregular sexual orientation".
I find Christians who look down on them like that to be hypocrites.
Their only reason being "It says in the bible...".
I'm sure there are many Christians who have broken rules in the bible themselves.
The bible says they can't cut their hair either.
But they do that.
So why is it sooo bad for someone to 사랑 who they want?
What makes that one thing worse than the other things they do?
I was raised believing God was kind and forgiving... if God cannot forgive gays, why should he forgive them for cutting their hair?
So then is everyone who cuts their hair going to hell?

Also, sorry if this is worded weird.
I'm about to fall asleep on my keyboard and I really didn't look back 또는 편집 this...

*looks at how long it is*



uh.... Keith?


EDIT:


I completely support gay/lesbian/bisexual rights



Keith's best friend (i think) is Gay, not 100% sure.... and i'm not Christian (my parents think i am) i'm an atheist, so yeah...

Eenope~ I agree with 당신 on that.

My only answer is to read the Bible. Personally, I do not agree with gay marriage, but I've developed that veiw from 읽기 and studying the Bible, and respected leaders of the Church (that is, all Christian churches).

I completely agree.

Well, what 당신 typed was too long so I looked at other people's 답변 to see it was about gays and stuff. Since I was taught to believe in God and the bible (sadly, not anymore. I believe in science C:) I know that it is against the bible. I only think this applies to your religion, though. It's almost like an opinion. Like, for example, some people may think it's right because they might not believe in the bible and vice versa.

I've never understood how gay Christians can support Christianity. But I'm a heathen, so I guess I'm easily confused.

Well, God, our Savior, is fair but I'm not really sure He likes it. I don't understand those who supports it, but I won't murder you. I respect your opinion, but I'm not and don't want to be gay. I'm proud to say I'm a follower of Christ and believe He died on the 십자가, 크로스 for our sins and our wrongs. And isn't gay wrong?

Though I don't consider myself to be of Christian faith, I was raised in a Christian family and do donate time in to studying the religion and discussing it with 프렌즈 with similar habits.
It is said that all people are God's children, and that God loves all of his children. I don't think that God would hate 또는 look down on anybody for anything, whether it be religion, who 당신 choose to sleep with, what 당신 do in your life, etc. Be a little disappointed, maybe, like a parents after seeing their failing child's 신고 card, but I think that God would accept it and 옮기기 on and forgive the person in question. God is loving and forgiving. People, however, are hateful and relentless. It isn't God that hates gays, it's the people that use religion as an excuse to hate. And that doesn't just go for Christianity, that goes for people of all faiths and beliefs, 또는 lack thereof.

I'm a Christian who supports Gays. It's 사랑 the sinner not the sin. :33

I'm a member of the Roman Catholic Church. I agree with the church on things like making Penance and Lent, but I found something that most people over look. The Bible was written 의해 humans, who no matter how holy, are not be able to understand of God's plans. For example, the choices of divorce in the church have changed. I sincerely believe that God loves all creatures, 동물 (who are said to not have immortal souls), heterosexuals, homosexuals, bisexuals, transgendered people, and all that I have missed, because isn't it said that God's kingdom is love? And if a creature is capable of loving others, and loves God, doesn't it deserve to go to heaven?

I believe you're half right.
We shouldn't be against letting gays get married and doing what they want. God doesn't forbid us from sinning up a storm and doing whatever we please. But that doesn't mean that he likes it, 또는 is ok with it.
So yes, gays should be able to get married. But no we shouldn't think that it's ok. God has clearly said not to do it:

"And He answered and said to them, 'Have 당신 not read that He who made them at the beginning 'made them male and female,'"
—Matthew 19:4
"For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due."
—Romans 1:26-27

"Do 당신 not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God."
—1 Corinthians 6:9-10

Those are some of the verses.
(read 더 많이 at link )


And I remember 읽기 through the bible and it gave a huge list of who is, and isn't ok to marry.
One of which is saying no to homosexuals.

So anyway gays CAN get married, they have free will and God won't stop it and neither should we. But it's still wrong and we shouldn't actively support it 또는 do it ourselves.

Okay, yeah, I guess being gay is kinda bad...
BUT! That doesn't mean he doesn't watch you. He watches over EVERYONE. There are some pretty bad ppl on this earth, and alotta gays and what-not, but it doesn't mean He doesnt 사랑 them cuz He loves EVERYONE...

I looked in the Bible and it said that being homosexual is a sin. It also says that all sins are equal in Gods eyes so it doesn't matter if 당신 are gay, lie, 또는 even murder, all sins are equally bad.

Technically, yes it's wrong. Because, in the beginning, God made man AND woman. He did 의해 make man and man and woman and woman. I see how a lot of people think that people are people and God will forgive us all but that doesn't mean that he can forgive all sins. Although, somehow I know how this goes against everything I wrote, but I'm not so bothered with a guy that feminine taste as in fashion and be able to baby out with girls and talk to them normally. That does NOT mean they're gay. They could be perfectly straight just that he likes to be around girls a lot.

I Think god is a peaceful person,and I support gay rights. And i'm sure he does too. "Man and woman were meant to 사랑 eachother." Man and man can 사랑 too.

I'm not answering this 질문 because 당신 already did that for me ;)

I was raised Catholic as well but I hate people who say God hates 당신 if 당신 this 또는 if 당신 don't do that. They just don't get it.

I believe in God and Jesus, and most of the parts of the Bible. But I don't go to church, and I don't believe in everything the Bible says. The biggest thing is probably that being gay is wrong. I support gay people and bisexual people.

I don't think theres a single religon that matches perfectly to a person. I haven't read the whole Bible, but I know there are things I don't agree with. I think God, who is, as 당신 said, fair and just would be fine with someone who doesn't agree with something he states. I'm Christian, no matter what anybody says, and I proudly support LGBT.

Yeah i know! its annoys me who people hate gays because they are just like us, human beings, so they should get some respect. I know a gay person and he's my friend! so i dont understand why im like one of his only friends.... i hate people that hate gays! its soooooo mean!! im going to protest someday for gays even though im not one!!!! Who cares if your gay 또는 not... christian 또는 not! if your gay 또는 of any irregular sexual orientation dont be afraid of it!!!! put yourself in their shoes, how would 당신 feel if people hate 당신 for what 당신 are! Gays are normal and i for one respect that! 코멘트 on this if 당신 respect the gays 또는 anybody of any irregular sexual orientation!

I agree with what 당신 said. And I'm a Christian although I don't know much about the religion other than what my friend told me because she is the one who converted me. She told me that homosexuality is a sin but I don't agree.

The Bible tells us that God is love. It also teaches that sin cannot enter into God's presense. Homosexuality, just like lying, stealing, gossip 또는 murder are all sin. The Bible also says, "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." "The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through 예수님 Christ." We all deserve hell. If we believe and trust in Christ death on the 십자가, 크로스 for our sins, and follow Him, we will be saved. (Go to heaven)
I have no ill feelings towards homosexuals 또는 hetrosexuals who engage in sex outside of marriage. But, tell me, if I know someone is headed to hell and don't try to warn them 또는 show them the way to heaven, then how can I say that I 사랑 them? I believe in hating actions, but still loving people. God does 사랑 all of us. If we don't accept his gift of forgiveness, we have nobody but ourselves to blame if and when we go to hell.

I'm not religious,but I have nothing against gays. I know that not all Christians are gay bashers though. I think the main ones talking about gays are those very religious people that are against things that aren't that big of a deal such as Halloween. I'm neutral about them getting married. I don't want to get married,so I don't really care if they do.

What I believe is that God loves all His children, including gays and 레즈비언 and bisexuals, but he doesn't 사랑 what they do. I don't think He looks down on people who aren't straight. He gave us free will for a reason. I definitely support gay rights, but I follow His way and go to church. I can only hope that I'm right about Him. If I am wrong, I'm most definitely going to Hell, because I have gay 프렌즈 and I support gay rights with my whole being.

I am not a religious person. I have read the bible and I would be a Christian though. However; it does say that only a man and women should be together, nothing else.

I don't support gay rights. However; I don't care if 당신 are gay, I just don't like it whenever people are like 'I'M GAY!!!' and won't leave 당신 alone, I'd rather them keep it to themselves. Not trying to stir up any crap so don't start anything. I've nothing againest them.

Well, God loves everybody, so He doesn't hate anyone. But, He specifically says in His Word that 당신 should not lie with your brother, and since we are all brothers and sisters in Christ, that is basically the same thing. Also, the city that burned down in the Bible (I think Sodom and Gomorah?), men wanted to sleep with other men just to have sex. This was a sin God did not like, and it was one of the reasons God burned down the city.

God said in the Bible that he disapproves gay people. Someone who's gay isn't necessarily a bad person but he's disobeying God. We cannot know how he'll judge them later but it's considered a sin. Personnaly, I think pretty much the same way as 당신 do, I have gay 프렌즈 and they're not bad persons, I'm a 팬 of Ellen Degeneres and I think she's a good person and very generous... All I can tell 당신 is that God considers it a sin to be gay because that's not how he meant to ''make us''...

I have a Christian friend who knows I'm bi. He says that God loves gay people...just not the idea. And I asked him whats wrong with the idea? And he said people don't fully understand God. And I was like Wtf?
So yes, Christians do think being "gay" is a sin. Though, most of the "saner" Christians believe that all sins are equal. While I don't know how being gay is a sin as of itself (something about demons possessing 당신 and 당신 weren't born gay just the Devil trying to trick 당신 and blah blah blah). The bible says a lot of things, like working on God's 일 (the Sabbath day, which was originally Saturday then changed to Sunday...for whatever reason) means 당신 are punishable to death. I have yet to see a Christian supporting that yet Christians totally support bullying gay people (even though bullying shouldn't even be permitted) and restricting the rights of gay people. There's too many contradictions in the bible, the only thing I can say is if God exists and the bible is His words, then God is in no way perfect 또는 that the men who wrote the bible is too imperfect to write in His words. My logic is, why would God, a perfect being, create such an imperfect being when what results from perfect is perfect? Sorry, I read some Atheist stuff (I'm agnostic) and kinda went off topic. But 당신 probably get my point.

I'm a Catholic but I do support gay rights, even though I'm not gay/bi.

I do not think it's a sin because God loves everyone equally, every single person in the entire world. If he loves everyone that means he loves gay/bi people ^-^ Well, I really hope that.

I actually might be turning into an Atheist even though I go to a Catholic school :\

Yay! Someone agrees! The God I believe in wouldn't look down on someone for being who they are!

A religious question... *flips a table*


......

I support gay/lesbion/bisexual rights.

I'm a christian too and I think God would not forbid love, even if it means 사랑 between people from the same sex. Personally I have nothing against them and people should not offend 또는 ignore them just because they think it's forbidden 의해 the religion.

I AGREE with you!!!!!! Gays can be whatever they want!!!!( I am a catholic.)

found this verse: If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them. (NKJ, Leviticus 20:13)

I don't have anything against homosexuals, but I do have a big thing against that sin. I read once that "It's the cigarette that does the smoking, you're just the sucker", and I think that goes for this too. The Bible says every sin is forgivable (except blasphemy, and that would probably lead into a whole other 토론 -_-)

Everyone above me is right. Being gay does not make 당신 a bad person. BUT...it is in fact a sin because it says in the Bible(Lev 18:22, Lev 20:13, 1 cor 6:9-10, Rom 1:26-28) that homosexuality is a sin. Being gay does not mean 당신 are a bad person, a bad christian, 또는 whatever else they are saying.like kiss_me said, Every sin is forgivable except for blasphemy(and taking 또는 adding to the Bible)...I won't go into any 더 많이 detail because i don't want to sound rude 또는 anything.
