Let me just answer you this way, when I was very young I instinctively knew that a woman was made for a man, this was even before I knew anything about the bible. How did I know this, well from being raised by my parents...a father and a mother and my father was always the boss of the household.
As I was growing up I was always attracted to girls because of the beauty and gentleness that they possessed. Their beautiful soft radiant skin, their finely shaped bodies were just so appealing and attractive to me.
And then I began seeing guys with other guys and thought man...that is so odd. Why are they not with women, why are they choosing a guy over a woman. I thought surely this is a bad choice and not right.
Then eventually I began to read the Holy Bible and sure enough, I found out I was right, it is a wrong choice, because to God it is a detestable sin.

It's not okay to gay bash because that actually harms others.
See the difference?
Aha........And this is where it breaks down...
So it is Ok to breaks God law but not okay to break the state law?
Remember, we arent talking about Gods extistence in this case, we are talking about his law.
It is ok to hurt God, but not ok to hurt someone else?
You have also missed the main point.
If you have a desire and emotion to bash a person sexual, IT is not ok to act on your desire and action just as the same If you have a desire and emotion to be with another man, it is not ok to act on your desire and action.
We ALL carry desires and emotions that breaks Gods rules.
But let me say something, i am not a homosexual, that does not mean i am any better or any worse than a homosexual.
I am a sinner just like the homosexual......

Rostos: nothing should be considered a sin if it doesn't harm others. I have no desire to have penis in my asshole, but if my fellow man does, how does it hurt me or you or mikniks or matt or anyone else? Why does god care?
And this is why it is such a problem discussing God's characteristics with atheists.....
By having a discussion with atheists about Gods characteristics, it is effectively a mute point. A theist like myself, abide by Gods rules and laws, some of those overlap the state law and others dont like Homosexuality.
For example, muslims arent allowed to eat pork. If a muslim is having a discussion with me about this, it is a mute point for me, because i am not a muslim, he may as well be talking in another language to me much like i am talking a different language to you about Gods law and homosexuality to you.......
You will have to argue that it is wrong for God to make homosexuality a sin....But you dont believe a God exists, so the argument is a fallacious one and you have no business in it.

Have a think about it atheists, have a good think about it.
To you, if there is a God (and think about the definition of God), you are arguing with him about his laws?
But to you, he doesnt exist, so what is the point?
Because a few people put up signs about people burning in hell because of there homosexual activity? If you think you know the world religions, you will know they are breaking ome of Gods laws themselves by making judgement.....
I dont know why it bothers you guys....

Here's the difference: if a muslim doesn't wanna eat pork (another retarded rule), then that harms NO ONE. If your god wants to persecute homosexuals, that HARMS HOMOSEXUALS. How is that fair?

Because God is NOT just trying to single out the acts done by homosexuals.
He dislikes ALL sexual acts done by people that are outside of marriage between a man and a woman.
Whether it is fornication, adultery, prostitution, pornography or homosexuality.
The focus shouldn't just be on homosexuality, but ALL acts done that are sexually immoral.

Rostos, stop saying we can't talk about what people think are god's laws. When billions of people believe something it affects me. How does it matter if I believe in god or not? If I care about society, then I don't want billions of people thinking it is okay to bash homosexuals or in some cases hurt or kill them.
Why is this hard for you to understand? I don't believe in god, but if society does, it is my concern when these people go gay bashing because they think god gives them that right. I don't want to hear about "true christians". Most people aren't true christians.
I am concerned about the advancement of the human race and we won't make it too far, because people think god gives them the right to do things they shouldn't.
I DON'T CARE WHAT PEOPLE ARE SUPPOSED TO THINK!! THIS IS WHAT PEOPLE ACTUALLY THINK!!!
Your response can't be: "True christians wouldn't do that.". I'm not worried about true christians. I'm worried about the billions that aren't true christians.
