"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...

Hmmm, well, we all fail there, don't we? We all judge every single person we meet.

Eating of "blood" (Scripture put in more modern terms):

Romans 14:13-15,
"Do not judge one another: but judge this instead, that a man not put an occasion to stumble in his brother's path. I am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to anyone that regards it unclean, to that person it is unclean. If your brother finds what you eat unclean, then you are walking unlovingly. Don't cause one to walk away from the faith, for whom Christ died."

1 Corinthians 8:8,
"But meat doesn't commend us to God; for neither if we eat are we the better; neither if we eat not are we the worse."

1 Corinthians 8:12-13,
But when you sin against your brother, and you wound their weak conscience, you are sinning against Christ. So if meat is an offense to my brother, I won't eat flesh in this world, just so I don't weaken my brother."

I am not siding with anyone. Just stating New Testament scripture from that "outdated" book, the Bible.

God's "hate",
Proverbs 6:16-19,
These six things the Lord hates; seven are an abomination to Him. A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked imaginations, feet running swift to mischief, a false witness who speaks lies, and he that sows division among the brothers."

Malachi 1:2b-3a,
Was not Esau Jacob's brother? says the Lord: yet I loved Jacob. and I hated Esau..."

Psalm 5:5,
"The foolish shall not stand in Your sight: You hate all workers of iniquity."

Hebrews 1:9,
You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity..."

It may have been a poor choice of words on FF's part on the topic of hate. That's all. People make mistakes. In my view, God does love all. It's not conditional on us loving Him first, because we didn't. The Bible strongly declares in Old and New Testament that there is no one who seeks after God. Jesus Himself said, "I am come to seek and to save that which was lost." He also said, "I haven't come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." Even Christians sin. We're bombarded all day with this world and the filth (for lack of a better term) in it. We just wlak to a different drum. "We love Him, because HE first loved us." (1 John 4:19)
God hates sin, not the sinner.

God damn Forest fan, you really are the turdpile of humanity.

The questions a page or two back. You fecal pile of mankind.

Blesséd ignorance.

Bwah ha ha haaa! Catching up on all the tasks you've neglected in the last couple of months eh? Cos y'know, you've barely been away from this board in that time. Except maybe to play computer games but we don't talk about that as it's sinful

Funny really...you only decide to be busy with things other than this board...wow, just after you're owned comprehensively. Oh, and when you want to avoid answering questions. How odd...almost as if you...you're lying. But it can't be that, not a good Christian like you...


Well, I hope you got done what you needed to. Now that you're back, let's see you answer the questions. Or concoct yet another excuse for not doing so.

Hmmm? Hmmm? I was working, y'know out - busy.

Heh. Yeah well; with luck, when he has his inevitable long dark night of the soul, rather than opening his veins he'll think back on all the questions I've asked him and engage his brain. Yes, I admit it; I'm proseltysing to fundamentalists about the benefits of becoming a thinking member of the human race.

Hi Forest, you abhorrent little coward, you disgrace to the name of Christianity, you sad and lonely little boy....are you gonna answer the questions in this thread? Or are you gonna say "What quesions?" or "I've answered them", or some other equally facile lie?
