Faith is a personal belief in something that may not be provable by reason or evidence, while ideology is a system of ideas that is concerned with human progress and political action.
Faith is focused on inwardness and the redemption or purification of the human spirit, while ideology is focused on the group, the nation, or the class.
Faith may acknowledge its debt to revelation, while ideology always believes that it lives by reason alone.
Sure it does. Killing another is wrong but not wrong in a war.
Killing another is wrong but not when done so in self defense.
Killing anouther is wrong but not to save the lives of others.
Are you actually pretending that LGBT people don't exist?
LGBT people are not fantasy characters.
Yet you are trying to focus on exitance of LGBT people
the only obvious reason is your personal prejudice.
And still absolutely no evidence at all that it is learned.
Someone is paying thousands and thousands of scientists all over the world to risk their reputations and careers by creating fake research and doing so for decades and no one ahs caught any of these bribes and no scientis has ever felt the need to confess but still this MUST be happening.
Yeah that makes perfect sense.
And you don't need to look through the telescope because you already know the earth is the center of the universe.
how do you tell is someone is a homophobe? They seem to think they can tell who is and who isn't gay by some form of telepathy

I didn't say I couldn't find anything.
This headline proves my point.
Adult children of lesbian parents less likely to identify as straight, study finds

They're "significantly more likely to report same-sex attraction, sexual minority identity, and same-sex experience" than the general population.

Wrangler wasn't being hateful.
It is hateful to call someone hateful just for having moral convictions.

Some other topic ideas in this vein.
Pretty easy to judge homosexuality and ignore other GLARING problems.
(now they will probably call me gay) Figures.
Church Pot Luck Gluttony: Wrong or Right?

Wow, you're fast!
I deleted it because I wanted to modify it before you could get to it, but no-o-o-o!
I don't normally joke about this kind of thing, but I'm in a mood, so...

No worries. I gave the set up. Good response.
Yes, no joking matter. (but I can't resist)
What did you think of the topic title suggestions?

I suppose it's funny because I'm a bit irreverent.
Not worried about putting on a face. (mask)
I liked the comment earlier about defending racial equality.
The response was, "Doesn't mean I'm black."

Wrong! "And put a knife to thy throat, if thou be a man given to appetite."
Honestly, I'd rather fake it than give in to faulty neurotransmitter function.
I'm indifferent about this issue.
So right!
Why kid ourselves? We honestly don't have the authority to condemn—only to warn.
You mean "Bibliolatry," don't you? Did you see my post about ultra-literalism in Devin's OSAS thread?
You know the cure for that stuff, right? "Every word that proceeds..."—not just the ones that make you feel comfy or help you stay in good with Dad.
Work out the paradoxes with fear and trembling, Dude!
What is it with everybody and the J-word?
Come on, SS! Don't you know we're going to judge angels?
Judge with righteous judgment!
Am I being unreasonable?
I confess that I love "The Soup Nazi" episode of "the television show about absolutely nothing."
Or is that "Friends?"
Oh, what's the difference, right?

No worries here, either. Like I said, I'm in a mood so...
What are ya, gay or something?!!!
Interesting (or maybe not) story: We just got back from vacationing in Myrtle Beach, SC. On the way down, we stopped in Low Moor, Virginia, of all places, and stayed at a discounted, but remarkably clean and serviceable hotel. The adjacent '50s-styled diner did double duty as a check-in/front desk.
One of the attendants/waitstaff there was a big, burly 20-something dude with pretty blond hair down to his waist (not that uncommon, right?) and brashly pink-stained lips (getting more common, I guess?). He spoke with a southern drawl and was just as hospitable as the day is long. I quite liked him and enjoyed chatting with him very much.
When we paid the dinner bill and headed toward our room, we had trouble getting the keycard to work with the access door to the accommodations building. My wife dashed away to get help and here he came dramatically sashaying across the few parking spaces between the diner and the hotel with his hand firmly planted on one hip. He helped us get into the building and said a few apologies and some other welcoming words assuring us we'd have no trouble with our room door lock before, again, sashaying away into the night.
I have no idea what this fellow's "sexual orientation" is or if he'd even be very happy about me referring to him as a fellow, for that matter. The subject just never came up.
But as pleasant as this encounter was, I'd be lying if I said it wasn't absolutely surreal on some level.
When I was in high school, I lived in east Tenessee in the town where my parents were born and raised. The elementary schools there were unofficially segregated even as late as the early '80s. The N-word is still not frowned upon there in most circles of society. Looking back, I'm glad we didn't have anyone like Mr. Low Moor in town because I probably would have died defending him from getting pummeled to death every night. I had friends who are no longer friends because of their attitudes about such things. My former best friend and my sister's ex-husband (same person) comes to mind.
And none of this has anything to do with what the Bible says about the moral value of homosexuality.
Or does it?

Because eating too much at a church potluck is just as big of an issue as homosexuality taking over the whole world. Give me a break.
In the Old Testament scripture says that a man lying with a man as with a woman is an abomination and in the New Testament that says that one who does such practices cannot enter heaven, and it means one who fervently, willingly, continually, practice such things.
Now they've changed the wording of scripture in the newer printed translations of the Bible and some people will dictate it doesn't mean as interpreted throughout the centuries.
But God's word said it's wrong and he's against it _ as well as many other things he is against and those of us who practice the things that he is against will suffer the consequences laid out in Scripture.

Being a minority isn't harmful.I didn't say I couldn't find anything.

They're "significantly more likely to report same-sex attraction, sexual minority identity, and same-sex experience" than the general population.
it is also interesting to note that the very article you quoted contradicts your own claim.
"In a study published last year in the New England Journal of Medicine, Gartrell and her co-authors showed that from a mental health perspective, adult children with lesbian parents fared just as well as their peers with opposite-sex parents.
“They are doing very, very well,” she said of these adult offspring.
Gartrell added that her work “challenges ancient stereotypes and fears” that children would be psychologically harmed by growing up with same-sex parents and the vast majority would be gay themselves. These fears, she said, “hold no water whatsoever.”"

he is saying that a minority is the same as rapists and murderers. That is about as hateful as you can get.

If you would have bothered to actually read the linked article you would have found that the author of the study actually address this question.
