I don't equate adultery and homosexuality together because adultery is acting upon certain things based on many other context and not just desire. A homosexual couple having sex is just that, but someone committing adultery could mean sex because they are being unfaithful or such so I cannot equate those two things in my mind in the same context<BR/><BR/>But I get where people feel they cannot accept it and that is completely fine because we cannot change anyones mind but I am here just to put my view out there but I appreciate you guys commenting and reading :-)DEFENDrightshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11214513391954548354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7071490049979112525.post-62980721684940158132009-02-10T15:32:00.000-08:002009-02-10T15:32:00.000-08:00I will never accept homosexuality, whether it is a...I will never accept homosexuality, whether it is accepted by society or not. It is against Islam and therefore I'm against it. These desires and feelings are all forms of tests we have to endure and pass while in this world. If I were to accept homosexuality, does that mean I have to accept adultery too?MarjnHomerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01331096530421066392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7071490049979112525.post-84111117372392245022009-02-06T01:57:00.000-08:002009-02-06T01:57:00.000-08:00God doesn't condone being gay, he condones acting ...God doesn't condone being gay, he condones acting upon it. So, yes I do believe as do many that it is biological. But thats not the point, whether its biological or not, its still ok as long as you don't act upon it. In Islam, if you are gay you are supposed to marry a woman to help suppress those feelings, for example.Mrs. Cullenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10550840474541352872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7071490049979112525.post-51579042665779906092009-02-04T09:36:00.000-08:002009-02-04T09:36:00.000-08:00The religous answer to your question is already po...The religous answer to your question is already posted by anonymous... but you knew that answer already.<BR/><BR/>The Holy Bible (what I was raised with) reiterates what you've put: "God did not make war, aids, crime...homosexuality ". <BR/><BR/>As far as Will the government start segregating people even further?, history seems to go in the opposite direction... we are presented with something "different" than the societal norms and we learn to integrate it, accept it, tolerate it (to everyone their own way of living side by side the change). I guess only time will tell. <BR/><BR/>The fear in us speaks here when we think maybe it's a slippery slope and we'll end up in catagories determind by desires. Homosexuality still is yet to be defined by society as genetic or a choice... they've done that for a reason, to avoid the slippery slope I guess.fuelMybrainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09099443635642906390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7071490049979112525.post-86376293693780352562009-02-03T21:32:00.000-08:002009-02-03T21:32:00.000-08:00once we accept gays it becomes a sin, so as the pr...once we accept gays it becomes a sin, so as the prophet would do: we tolerate it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
