What has been annoying me and worrying me is the fact the Christians are so worried, and SO bothered by homosexuality that they forget everything and everyone else. Even in the church, they would rather bash them, (And.. this does not mean ALL Christians, just the ones I have been in contact with.. most on cc ;) ) And by bash, I mean taunting them, and saying things to them such as 'You're gonna burn!', 'I hope you get sick!'. Which, I've heard both from ''Christians''. We don't pay attention to murderers, thieves, liars.. Why? We can't control them? And because homosexuality, the marriage aspect of it is a ''legal'' issue.. then, they think 'Hey, we can control this!'. When I look at any couple, whether be straight, or gay.. I don't think about what they DO. That is them.. And to fill my mind with that, and get angry? Why? We don't want to think 'Hey, maybe they DO love each other!' That idea is ... HORRIBLE. To everyone else, it seems. When I say that, or throw that idea out.. people attack by saying 'You aren't Christian!', 'You support sinners!'. No.. but, I don't hate them. I do. Not. Hate. Forgive me if I come off rude, but, by saying that you hate them, or you wish they would get sick.. you are not living the Christian life-style. And, I'm just ranting here.. Feel free to click ''back'' if this topic is tedious, or.. you're apathetic to my statements. I love everyone. EVERY-ONE. Gay, straight, Bi, Trans, black, white.. No matter what. And by saying that they are sinners.. I'm a sinner, treat me the EXACT same way you would treat them. I have fallen and fall short of God's glory. I beg you, treat me and hurt me the way you would hurt them. But, no matter what.. I'll still love ya. Not to mention, Jesus will too. We need to concentrate on the fact that He loves us, and He died for us WHILE we were still sinners. Not, after we were saved.. He died for us, while we were still sinners.. I just get so annoyed.

Well those so called Christians who point the finger, don't realise they have 3 fingers pointing back at them. The problem is, people pluck out peoples problems, before they see they have the own problems. So its easy for them to judge others, and rant and rave about the bible and throw harsh comments down Homosexuals throats.

Maybe those So called Christians needs to read this from the bible they read. It Says In Matthew 7: 1-5
Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.

It annoys me also the way people judge, and mask there judgement with a stupid thought or excuse to cover there judgement up. Yes God Loves Gays, Homosexuals, Cross dressers, Bi Sexual, Or any other immoral sexual perversion. Why Because Jesus Died on the cross for them. But Lets make this clear, God does not like there practices, there wrong doings. Which is why He mentions a lot in his WORD, so that everyone will know that God forbids such doings. But it don't mean for so called Christians to make judgemental remarks, or make harsh comments. Fair enough, those so called Christians may not like it, then just leave it at that.

There is no need for all this judgement. Concentrate on your own journey with God. and stop getting involved with other people's problems. Sort your own out, repent of your own sins, instead of judging other peoples sins.

I agree with you Morgan, it is annoying, and to be honest, this annoyance should not get to me like it does. It saddens me to see these so called Christians being the way there are. God loves sinners, its the real reason why he died for us all. and this is how you so called Christians pay respect to what Jesus Did on the cross? And no that's not a judgemental remark, its a question hopefully will set in your minds to realisation.

I don't know that I can honestly say I love everyone but I want Christ to teach me how to love everyone, as he does. Your rant is purposeful, not petty. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

I'm glad you posted this. I agree with you. I've been feeling this way too and bothered by it. I have friends, some close that are gay. I've known some since childhood. When a friend of mine that lived across the street from me growing up told me she was gay, I wasn't surprised. I love my friends and it hurts me when I hear horrible things said. You don't have to agree with the life style but you don't have to be hateful about it either. I know people will respond with, you don't want the truth. Well my truth is Jesus loves you, me and them, and I won't change how I feel about that.

Perhaps if homosexuals themselves weren't so antagonistic and set people to only hold the position of 'bigot and homophobe' or 'supporter' without allowing people to just simply disagree, they would take less flak. You can't tell people 'you support me 100% or you're a hated enemy' and then be surprised that some people dig in harder against you.
Not saying that the attacking behavior is right. But Christians are humans and when one group is constantly in your face pushing their agenda and setting you up as an enemy because you believe differently, well, that pushes peoples buttons. The homosexuals aren't free of blame in all this either. They bring things on themselves.

Perhaps they wouldn't be if people would stop getting so hurt and defensive about a subject. You aren't and Christianity is not the 'victim'. And you shouldn't act like it.

Neither side is innocent. Both have a role in creating the mess.

Actually it's pretty much 99% Right Wing Christian's fault for starting this mess.

It's like as if the entire nation of Russia went to war with Fiji, over not liking the way Fijians looked. You could claim there are two sides, but there is clearly a larger more aggressive group causing most of the trouble.

Agreed 100% agreed.. People stare at the news, get their daily intake of hate speech and go about life living like a robot.

I don't think it's right to treat gays as if they aren't people. I do believe that we need to help them see that they cannot be let into heaven if they continue to live in this sin. The bible clearly says homosexuality is a sin, but they need help to realize this so they can break free from that sin. romans 6: What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it?... Jesus told a woman, go and sin no more, he wouldnt tell her to do something that wasnt possible. And in another place He said sin no more lest a worse thing come upon you, to a man who was healed. If we keep on sinning every day knowing we are sinning and making excuses for it, we will be under the curse.. Deuteronomy 28. Bt if we live righteous, we are under Gods blessing. Which it talks about in the same chapter.

In my church conference, the leaders put homosexuals on pedestals. It is destroying the conference: people are leaving the church by the droves. Homosexuality is clearly a sin (Mark 10:6-8).

Meanwhile, all over the USA, promotion of same-sex marriage is spreading like wildfire.

So I think it's okay for us to talk about it.

No, no one is all loving except the Lord Jesus. Your a 16 year old teenager, your not "all loving" at all. All of us are wicked sinners who deserve death and hell. We all are liars too, we lie and are sinners, therefore yes you are a liar. ( Romans 3 verse 4 - Let God be true, and every man a liar ) We are alllllllll liars.:D I pray God protect you from the brainwashing going on in the school systems, in Jesus name - God bless ( Numbers 6 verse 22 to 27 ):eek:
