i know but it seems if i dont agree with certain people on the lj thing they freak out. they can say what they feel and believe but the second i do i get shot down because i believe the bible. whatever people get what they deserve in the end.
People are touchy about the Bible. Its controversial and causes a lot of debates. Not saying that's the right thing to do, but I think that's why people jump all over Christians, because the Bible is just so very hard to interpret. No one is going to do it right. We all just try. You know what I'm saying?
Being a pot head or alcoholic isn't like being gay, though. You make a choice to drink or smoke. You don't make a choice to be gay. And them being around and teaching and adopting children is a right that they deserve as human beings, which is all they are. Human.
But I understand how you feel. Its your religion and your beliefs, and that's cool. Everyone just feels differently, which is the awesome thing about where we live. Everyone feels differently and we can all debate about it. <3
Believing what you think is right is okay, I'm just against people who will harm/ yell/ take it to extremes to tell other people that they are wrong in what they believe. I just don't think its possible to be wrong.
exactly...i like to debate, i like to get my opinions out there. i know that you are good at that too. i told a certain person when she told me she was bi recently that i would not stop being her friend so i wrote her an email that explained how i felt and asked her questions. i did it in a very respectable way, and told her to not take it the wrong way that i didnt mean anythig by it. well she told me never to talk to her again. this person is close minded to what deep down she knows is right. she just doesnt want to admit it. that is one of the reasons i decided to make this a public post.
Haha. Oh the days of debating in high school... heh.
She told you never to talk to her again? Weird.
Well, sometimes gay people can be just as close minded about other's opinions and whatnot. Its just human nature. One of my very, very best friends is gay and he is the coolest person you'll ever meet.
I like debating with other people that won't get mad and throw shit in my face, you know? I like debating with other level- headed people... just exchanging opinions and shit. That's fun to me.
Agreed. You don't choose to be gay. That is why there are millions, if not billions of bisexuals and homosexuals in this world. They are no different than heterosexuals and I respect them greatly.
Have you ever seen that movie "But I'm a Cheerleader?" Great stuff.
But moreover, that newer movie "Saved" has one of the best lines I've ever heard in it. These gay kids got expelled from their Chrisitan school essentially and were sent to "de- gayification" camps pretty much, but at the end they come back to go to their prom, and the pastor/ principal guy is all "what you do is a sin and blah blah" then one of the gay guys says "I know in my heart that Jesus still loves me." I seriously wanted to get up and fucking cheer at that part. I believe that Jesus loves everyone, gays and heteros alike. He taught love while he was here, and I don't think that changed when he ascended.
I just have to....

""all my point is, is that you shouldnt pick and choose out of the Bible what you think is right, or what you think is wrong. if you are going to believe some, you might as well believe it all. you cant make it to "fit" your lifestyle

I got a boob job, my ears and belly button is pierced, and i have a tatoo on my back. like i said i the post " i sin everyday" but i do not choose to live a life of sin. being gay/bi is a sin. and no i do not believe God would make a gay person and i will fight that until the day i die.
"it isnt your place to tell someone else how to live." - i never did.
"It all comes down to, the Bible is REALLY old. There is no way to live by it now" <~~~~ oh my gosh jessica, duh thats probably why so many people believe it. who would believe it if it was created today

You do live a life of sin Jill, you fucking sin everyday. Every single hour you sin, everyone in this damn world lives a life of sin, you know things are wrong and you do them anyway, plus if you truly believe EVERYTHING in the bible every sin is equal. And if you believe everything in the bible then I can be gay, murder someone, cuss out the pope, and still be in heaven because I have excepted god
