The Pit...
A homosexual fell into a pit and couldn't get himself out.
A pharisaic fundamentalist came along and said, "You deserve your pit."
A psychologist came along and said, "Accept your pit. That way you'll be happy."
An apostate liberal came along and said, "Your pit is God's beautiful gift to you."
A gay activist came along and said, "Fight for your right to stay in your pit."
A researcher came along and said, "Discrimination against pits is illegal."
A charismatic came along and said, "Just confess that you're not in that pit."
Respectable people came along and said, "We don't associate with pit-dwellers."
His mother came along and said, "It's your father's fault you're in that pit."
His father came along and said, "It's your mother's fault you're in that pit."
His wife came along and said, "It's all my fault you're in that pit."
But Jesus, seeing the man, loved him, and reaching into the pit, put his arms around the man and pulled him out.

I do not believe in predestination; I believe we have free will, though I understand the concept of, "Given our circumstances, what we have done and seen in the past, we will always make the same choice," the point is WE make that choice, not God.

I've described it this way: This universe is a play that God has written. However, God has given some of the actors (the humans) the right to ad-lib and improvise. On top of that, God wrote himself into the play as a character (Jesus), to interact with humans. With regards to God being the author, God has total control, but that doesn't mean we don't ad-lib from time to time. Sometimes we do what God wanted us to do, according to the script, and sometimes we don't, and God works from there.

If there's only one outcome then how can you truly call it your choice if it's the only choice you've got.

I want to explain how knowing the future is impossible through my reasoning. (This is for everyone) If someone (let's say God) told you you're exact future it would have to include that you already know the future because it's being told to you right now. But if you were told the future in which in you knew what the future was then the future would have to include that you were told the previously mentioned future. See it's impossible to know the future because of this ad infinitum fallacy. What do you guys think?

That happens a lot in this forum. Topics change fast.

BTW, the title talks about Jesus' attitude to sexual sinners, but the original post only mentions homosexuality. I wonder why. Does Jesus not worry about straight people's sexuality?
