so, i think i have the whole gay/homosexual/transgender thing figured out.
and if anyone reads this, i bet would spark controversy. so i'm going to post it.
bob is a man. he often thinks about women in a lustful way, but he is married. Bob often acts out on that lust, in relationships and one night stands with other women.
this, my dear children, is called adultery, and you could call bob an adulterer.
well, things go along and a couple other men like bob decide that since they feel the same way about women, we should legalize polygamy. or not even polygamy, but just sex with whomever you wish.
and of course, people don't like that idea. and they complain. and they want people like bob to just leave stuff the way it is.
and i agree.
adultery is a sin. not a lifestyle. bob thinks that is who he is, when that is only a practice that he struggles with.
so, lets make a dramatic flip to real life.
bob is a man. he often thinks about men in a lustful way, and often acts out on that lust, in relationships and one night stands with other men.
this, my dear children, is called "homosexuality", and you could call bob a homosexual.
well, things go along and a couple other men like bob decide that since they feel the same way about men, we should legalize homosexuality, and the marriage between those of the same sex.
and of course, people don't like that idea. and they complain. and they want people like bob to just leave stuff the way it is.
and i agree.
homosexuality is a sin. not a lifestyle. bob thinks that is who he is, when that is only a practice that he struggles with.
we feed ourselves lies for months and years. we were not made to be gay. it is something wrong that God said was wrong, because it is often unsafe. and not even that, but He said it was wrong. i'll say that one more time. God said that it was wrong. and we should respect that.
if you are still reading, i'm not saying i hate gays and lesbians. i don't hate them just like i shouldn't hate liars, murderers and gluttons.
as humans, we try to rationalize our actions. we compare sins, saying murder and adultery are worse than lying or taking God's name in vain.
even though God says that all sins are the same. "if a man hates his neighbor, then he has already committed murder in his heart."
"all have gone astray, each turning to his own way..."
"there is none that is righteous, no, not one."
we are all unclean. our righteousness is as filthy rags.
we should not legalize gay marriage, just like we should not legalize adultery or sodomy.
it is not a lifestyle. it is a habit-forming practice... a sin.
after a while, you form a pattern and it is hard to break.
God can help. turn to Him. |
