can someone be christian, really christian, follow christ and everything, and be gay? can you be a gay person (and i am targeting specifically guys in this thread) and still follow christ with all your heart, mind, and soul? Because the bible says that sexual impurity is wrong...but...iunno, it's a line...but i know so many people who are christians and follow christ with all they are, but struggle so hard with their homosexual feelings....
let's hear it... |

I know a few gay people who are Catholic... It doesn't seem that hard to me. not to you but the bible says that homosexuals wont go to heaven, even if they keep it in their mind and never "come out" they wont go to heaven and arent really good Christians changing words from the bible to make it look like there's nothing wrong with it. the bible says its wrong and the word is God so you cannot disobey or question it, im sorry but God is a tough guy. ![]() |

Show me. Gay sex is what's prohibited. Being gay by itself and not having sex is not a sin. |

I firmly believe that no one is qualified to determine whether or not the two can't coexist. The most genuine honest idea is this one:
Gay sex is what's prohibited. Being gay by itself and not having sex is not a sin. But even that is only according to the Bible. Also, the Bible has been intrepreted in different ways (ie, King James' version, etc). With that being said, who's to say what is absolute truth? Who are any of you to judge? To say that you can't be Christian AND gay is a judgement and one that shouldn't be made. Also, isn't "God" supposed to be this benevolent being? You really, honestly believe he would keep someone out of heaven because of their sexual preference? I understand, of course, that these are your opinions and by all means, have them. Please, have them. Just stating mine as well. |

Just because one is born gay doesn't mean that they are a sex maniac. I think some people have a messed up notion that all gay people are sex crazed and need gay sex to survive or to even have an identity. I know gay people who lead celibate lives... it's not impossible. ![]() |
