"Are you born gay or do you 'acquire' it?"

I heard two people talking about this the other night, and was wondering what you guys thought. Is being gay in your DNA, or is it 'acquired' through your life?

So yeh, enlighten me...

You're either so stupid that you can't understand the concept of humour and "get" a joke (regardless of if you find it amusing or not), or you're a plain and simple troll.

Why would I be?

Anyway ff, I thought you would be all for gay marrages.......

Once they get hitched, they'll stop having sex.

I thought it was the other way around, you know, Adams rib and all that.

And again: -

I’m sorry ff, but you are one of the most homophobic, intolerant, prejudiced, bigoted, sexist and thoroughly obnoxious little preachParrots I have ever had the misfortune to come across.

They are the same state as the rest of us - sinners. However, like I said in my previous post, unlike with other sins, people think homosexuality is acceptable.

It is doing something disgusting. God created man for woman, however by man disobeying this and breaking this natural bond, to go off with other men or animals, is sinning, because it is breaking God's Word.

Homosexuality hurts God. He created man for woman and now they are disobeying Him.

And that's free-will. Actually if you thought about it and truly understood God's hate for sin (including homosexuality), it is a miracle He still loves us. If God wasn't all loving, He would program us to serve Him, but He hasn't, He has given us free-will and that is what the homosexuals and everyone else abuse.

The difference with homosexuality, is many think it is not a sin. Unlike other sins, murder, rape or even just hate, many people think homosexuality isn't a sin, which is why Christians want to get their view across.

You don't have to want to "kill them" to be prejudiced.

You are saying that homosexuality is "not right", and that you’re not homophobic.

I’m sorry ff, but you are one of the most homophobic, intolerant, prejudiced, bigoted, sexist and thoroughly obnoxious little preachParrots I have ever had the misfortune to come across.

It’s nice to see all the worse elements of humanity on display, an in one of your gods supposed "chosen ones" no less.

Apparently, we are all sinners. What makes gay peoples 'sin' any worse than yours...?

Also, another point. Why is homosexuality a sin? I can see the logic in many of the things that are 'sinful' being sins, as they harm other people. Where's the harm in being gay? Who does it hurt? No-one.

Yeah, great all-loving God we have here. Screw a God who imposes their vision of what's right and wrong on us, we have our own minds and our own moral compasses, and if a God does happen to exist that's exactly what I'd say as they sat on their stupid high-horse judging me.

But isnt everything a sin, or do you have a extra special objection to homosexuality ?

Accepting homosexuality is not right. Accepting the people, is fine, I'm not homophobic, I don't want to kill them, but I hate their sin.
