>>>>Any viewing of nudity other then that of self or spouse is automatically sin, but watching a horror movie is not necessarily sin. That comes down to perspective, how you feel/convinced, and rather there is nude scenes in it as some horror movies do not.<<<<

Gosh sandy... If some discussion is going on and I notice your "thinking" appears skewed because of YOUR PUBLIC TESTIMONY from another thread <ya know which one I am talking about??> are you going to get all bunched up and offended if I mention "that" being the likely reason you are thinking "thus & thus"???
I was speaking directly to KEN in the post... he isn't offended... why are you?
Ken isn't ashamed to be delivered from porn... he gives God the GLORY... PTL! And that offers HOPE for others... for their edification...PTL!

Hi shotgunner,
From my point of view, regarding homosexuality vs. other sins, it is not a matter of one sin being more acceptable than another. The issue here is that those who are living same-sex life styles are and have been attempting to make this sin not sin. That is, they and the world are attempting to make this life style equal with marriage between a man and woman. Also, because they don't see anything wrong with this life style, that is that there is nothing wrong with it, then there is no need to repent. Furthermore, regarding the other sins you mention, such as murder, rape, theft, lying, etc., etc., there is not a world-wide effort to proclaim those actions as normal, such as with the same-sex issue.
We have people who consider themselves as Christian's, but their thinking is that God loves them just the way they are and therefore they can remain that way and continue living that life style. In short, they are justifying and embracing sexual immorality, which is the opposite of repentance. The other issue is that they are changing God's institution of marriage which God created only between a man and a woman. Now I'm sure that if people started attempting to justify murder, rape and all the others mentioned as being perfectly normal, then you would hear Christian's making just as much noise about those issues too. At least I hope that would be the case.
