Both heterosexual sins (e.g., fornication, adultery) and homosexual sins (men with men, women with women) result in separation from God. God is no respecter of persons regarding “the wages of sin.” Yet there is a major difference. Homosexuality is an assault against the way God made things - His creation order. It goes far beyond disobedience to His instructions; it is an affront to the Creator of nature by glorifying His creatures, by exalting humans, and by corrupting natural sexuality. It is a sin (although that is vigorously denied by many “within” the church) of such consequence that should the LGBT community achieve its goal of worldwide acceptance of its practice of sex as an “alternate lifestyle,” it would sound the death knell for the human race. Men do not procreate with men, nor do women have babies with women.
Homosexuality is about sexual immorality. Period. All of the propaganda circulated by the LGBT proponents is aimed at obfuscating that simple fact. It is a grievous distortion of what God created as something good.

So, hetero sexy-sins are forgivable because reasons but homo sexy-sins are not because they're against the way God made things?
Yet when a man does many of the same acts against the way God made things but with a woman instead, it's all kosher? I don't recall a chapter of Leviticus that says, "Thou shalt not tip the velvet."
Maybe if God didn't make homosexuals, this wouldn't be an issue? I mean, isn't he supposed to be infallible and all?
And some people seriously wonder why I don't buy into this...
"sigh"
1. Between 2-10 percent of the population are homosexual, with estimates of 3-5 percent being the most common. This leaves you with over ninety percent of the population who are heterosexual and can continue on the human race. Besides with today's technology, a lesbian couple can concieve, a gay couple can use a surrgate, and both can adopt or foster. This also leaves out bisexuals who can and do sometimes have hetero relationships and bear children from them.
2. This also denies the fact that relationships are not about procreation in a lot of cases. They are about companionshipm, love, caring, and choosing to spend your life with someone. We want the right to love who choose to love without scorn, judgement, and fear of reprisal.
Once again: god is optional. Marriage is optional. Your opinion is not wanted on the marriage of ANY two people, unless you are one of them. What others do in private has no effect on you. If you work yourself up into apoplexy, that's YOUR fault.
God, god, god... He keeps using the word, without ever providing proof it is anything more than a figment of his imagination.
Plus, marriage is about money. And sex. But not procreation, not anymore, if it ever was, anyway.

I did not find any reference to "Thou shalt not stroke the carpet or finger the chute", either.
"should the LGBT community achieve its goal of worldwide acceptance of its practice of sex as an "alternate lifestyle," it would sound the death knell for the human race. Men do not procreate with men, nor do women have babies with women."
Fundies just don't WANT to give up the belief that accepting homosexuality would turn EVERYONE gay, do they?
The question is, if God is all powerful and made everything, why are they "rebelling" against his creation? Couldn't it be easier to make it not want in any way? Do you decided one day that you liked women? Why would you bed men if you don't like it?
In other word, hetero sins are forgivable because you want to be forgiven but homo sins aren't because you don't want those forgiven.
it is an affront to the Creator of nature by glorifying His creatures
Homosexuality does nothing of teh sort.
by exalting humans[/i[
Again, no it doesn't.
and by corrupting natural sexuality
Homosexuality has been observed in over 1500 species. It's as natural as it gets.
should the LGBT community achieve its goal of worldwide acceptance of its practice of sex as an "alternate lifestyle," it would sound the death knell for the human race. Men do not procreate with men, nor do women have babies with women.
Gay sex isn't mandatory, moron. Only 8-10% of the population is born gay, far too few to make any real dent in population numbers. Which is a shame because we really have too many people on this planet.
Homosexuality is an assault against the way God made things
If homosexuality is so bad, why did God make people gay?
it would sound the death knell for the human race.
We've had homosexuality around since the beginning of recorded history, and our population is now over 7 billion.

Makes me think they're secretly struggling with homosexual desires themselves, and if homosexuality is normalized they might be tempted to act on them.
"It is a sin (although that is vigorously denied by many "within" the church) of such consequence that should the LGBT community achieve its goal of worldwide acceptance of its practice of sex as an "alternate lifestyle," it would sound the death knell for the human race."
Gay doesn't work that way. Just because you're in the closet it doesn't mean the rest of us are.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
