"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...

2 Corinthians 5:17, "Therefore if any one is in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are passed away: behold, all things are new."
You cannot live the way you want after salvation.
Jesus said,"Why do you call me 'Lord,' and don't do as I say?"

Why? According to you, all you have to do is accept Christ. Remember?

"but homo-sexuals HAVE to change"......That's f****** offensive by the way.

It's not who you are - it's whether you do not have Christ - but homo-sexuals HAVE to change.

Then i will stick by who i am, i am not a follower who will be blindly led into anything, i dont believe in heaven and hell and if i'm wrong i'll go to hell but at least i wont be lonely because there are a hell of a lot of people who share my views.

To cover about 3 replies,

Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed by God with fire and brimstone raining down on them from heaven. Why? The area was corrupted. In Sodom when the "men" (they were angels sent by God, but the Bible says men, for that is how they appeared) were in Lot's residence, the men of the city came and demanded Lot give them the men, "that we may 'know' them." They wanted to have unnatural sex with them.
As has been said many times on this forum, the only sin that sends one to hell is not accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. However, just because someone claims to belong to Christ, doesn't necessarily make them His. Jesus said, "If any one is to follow me, he must deny himself." One cannot live the way they want to and follow Jesus. The old life has to end. Jesus gives us new life and a new way to live.
Are they bound for hell? Yes, unless they change their ways.

That's the religous view point but then they are stuck in a time warp.

So all homosexuals go to hell?

I think it's a choice to choose to accept it, so many people are repressed, if you think it is nature then it would have been the same throughout the ages, I think this generation are a lot more open to the possibility.

True, but I think it is not a choice

"Thanks." No offence taken. Just my point of view as yours is yours.
