First... not speaking from hypocrisy but the truth of Gods Word...these folks have to repent of their sin, just like I did and do... That's not hypocrisy ..that biblical truth. And yes Jesus went to sinners not to justify them in their sin, but deliver them from sins power.... "Neither do I condemn thee, go and sin no more" is the truth of His message .... Not go sin all you want and let me approve it with a license... or did he tell the harlot...its ok you was born that way?
Speaking as one who was born this way, that doesn't make it okay. Jesus did not say to the sinner, its okay, you were born with a sin nature. Homosexuality is a manifestation of that sin nature, that original sin which damned the world and all of the offspring of Adam and Eve. So, being born gay, does not make it acceptable or okay to act upon. I don't believe we will ever find a "gay gene" because I don't think sexuality is solely based on a single gene, but an entire make up of a human being. (Case in point, it has been shown that the brain of homosexuals do differ from the brain of heterosexuals.) This does not make it acceptable or good or righteous, just human, and therefore, fallen and unrighteous.

Thank you, ThomistColin! I absolutely do agree with you. It's about being born into "sin" in general. NOT ONE is born "sinless", only Jesus Christ Himself was.

So, many people aren't born with a predisposition to alcoholism? (That's been scientifically proven.)
Are people not born addicts? (That's what happens when a mother uses alcohol or narcotics during pregnancy.)
Are people not born sometimes deformed or malfunctioned? (Some sociopaths are simply born.)
Are people not born with a predisposition to schizophrenia? (That's also been scientifically proven.)
Are people not born with AIDS? (That's what happens when the mother or father has AIDS.)
Are people not born with SIN? (That's what happens to all of mankind because of Adam's actions in the Garden.)

So, with all of the evils of the world, able to affect mankind from the very moments of conception to the moments of birth, tell me why you believe it is impossible that one be born with a particular predisposition to sin that has manifested from the fallen nature of the world? Because the truth is, we are all born into Sin. We are all sinners. We are all born destined for hell by that sin nature. We are all born fallen and evil and unrighteous.

I know you know the difference between a deformed baby and a sexual deviant? So are all perverts and deviants born that way or just the PC ones? Im sure some rapist and child molesters would love to claim its not really their fault.

Guy if you believe the nonsense that sexual deviants are born that way? You will believe any lie the devil tells you...Yes we are all born into sin and as we submit to sin that sin controls us...that's how a gay person becomes gay.

Most of what you described here is irrelevant to discussing whether babies are born gay or not.. A baby is ONLY born addicted to drugs/alcohol IF the mother drank while pregnant. Likewise with AIDS babies--OBVIOUSLY the mother has to have AIDS, to transmit it to the baby. I know we're not born sinless. BUT we are NOT born as gay babies. Where does the baby get the "gay gene" from? Obviously the mother ain't gay..lol.. OR the father for that matter. :rolleyes: Gay men and women don't have sex with the opposite gender..

So I reiterate my point that babies are not born gay. It's a decision they make much later in life, once they're old enough to comprehend what "gay" means.

A gay person is gay because they are attracted to individuals of the same sex. That means, they have a homosexual orientation...thus are gay. That's the difference between what you define as gay and what a gay person defines as gay. They define themselves as gay before they even submit to this sin, because of their ATTRACTION. The attraction is what makes them aware they are "gay" or "gay oriented".

Just like someone is tempted to steal or lie and submit themselves to that sin..that sin begins to control them and define them. No baby is born a pervert but learn that sinful life by not resisting those sinful and perverted desires. A child molester learns to be attracted to children because they allow those perverted desires to have place in their heart and mind..same with a homosexual... This is the issue with those of you who promote the gay agenda and approve and defend this perversion, instead of telling these people to resist these perverted desires and warn them of Gods Judgment, you encourage them to hold these lust and lead them further into bondage to this sinful perversion.

I never suggested that prayer should be withheld because of the parent? :confused:

I was making a point about the motives of this person who demanded compassion and prayer for this child and then laughed and ridiculed this lady...why are you not asking her why she is laughing instead of praying for her?
In which you lie once again. I never "demanded" compassion or prayer. I simply asked for prayer. I never "laughed and ridiculed" this lady other...that "lol" you decided to quote, was in response to another person's post. The mistake I made when replying to them, was replying without the quote, so you missed their post and only saw my one line response. You are such a fool, and you are a liar too. You have put words in my mouth, you have accused me of things that I did NOT do, then you have the gall to turn around and judge me for my "wickedness"? Hate to say it. You are absolutely insane.

So are we not to pray for gay people now? I mean, seriously? Isn't that what Jesus calls us to do for sinners?

You do realize that presupposes the desire to be there. Are you telling us Mitspa, that at one point, your flesh desired another male and you refused the desire. Or that the sinful desire in these people is already a part of their fallen nature. If the first, then you must say so in order to give evidence to "choosing homosexuality." If the second, then you have defended our argument that this is part of the sinful nature we are all born with.
This is the issue with those of you who promote the gay agenda and approve and defend this perversion, instead of telling these people to resist these perverted desires and warn them of Gods Judgment, you encourage them to hold these lust and lead them further into bondage to this sinful perversion.
And this is a lie...none of us has promoted or supported the "gay agenda". Nor have we defended the perversion, we have acknowledged that it is sin. We have acknowledged it must be resisted in order to walk the path of Holiness set by God.

We say it is sin and you call us supporters of the gay world. Either you are not listening to us, or you are just being stubborn.

Blue how do you explain those of parents that are addicts but yet their mother isn't? That logic is wrong. They can get their alcoholism from their father and father alone.

Dude the only way you promote something is only if you say it's okay. It's not okay to perform homosexual acts. Where are you getting the promoting of a gay agenda if no one on this forum is saying it's okay for a man to be with a man or woman to be with a woman. You're beating a dead animal that isn't there.

No one truly knows, though. So we can still have these discussions. At the end of the day, God does. For a lot people, yeah, It's environmental. But not everyone suffers from a traumatic experience. Stuff does happen during pregnancies that we don't know and can't explain. That is fact. It doesn't matter if one is born gay or not. It's not okay to perform in those acts. We can all agree on that. So Mitpsa, I know you're going to see this post to Blue, so I want you to get through that stubborn head of yours. Born gay. Or not born gay. It's not okay to perform homosexual acts. Jesus can help for those that do struggle with it. So say that's promoting the gay agenda again. Cause I really don't care anymore. I know it's your nature to twist things, and that you're fixated on this sin and this sin alone for whatever reason.

Both. It is both. He is extremely fixated on this sin, and this sin alone (from what I have noticed). It's kinda scary how fixated he is. He claims to stand up to this pervertedness, yet I don't see any action by him being done to change things. I think there's a song that says this, but... A little less talk, and a lot more action. That would be nice, for a change.

Dude ..this sin is like all other sin..it begins in the heart and mind...to even promote that the attraction is acceptable to God is to approve this sin. Just as the Lord clearly taught ... A homosexual attraction is a sin not just the sexual act.
