Re: Gay Bishop

Read it again MellowYellow. Just like there is difference between "hearing" and "listening" there is a difference between "reading" and "understanding or discerning" what you read. If I have covered my behind while making an attack of any kind, please point it out to me. I will happily correct it post-haste.

Re: Gay Bishop

I for one Mellow am all for freedom. Problem is the debate is extending to what I should be teaching my kids is right and wrong. If in fact though, that a majority of ancient Greek soldiers(Sparta) adopted this lifestyle, then choice is a big factor. I dont like being told that I am wrong for not accepting the idea that it is an equal and acceptable choice. Why is it not an acceptable and equal choice???, I don't know either other than my gut and biology tells me it ain't right. I read a book once, Forever War, science fiction, and the hero goes out to space and comes back periodically finding an earth that has aged 200 or 300 years each time. The society on earth evolves such that it goes gay, and they call him "old qu double e r" because he is hetero. Point is that cultural norms flux around. I'll stick with the ones that I still have the right to believe in.

Hey mellow, you should change your name to MellowWoody, as you and he are on about the same page of making sensless statements, ignoring requests for clarification, and playing absolute "holier than thou." Nice.

Re: Gay Bishop

so my words fall on deaf ears reverend?<br />let's try your words then:<br /><br />"In my eyes, promote the man and promote his sin since he is "openly" gay. How can he be trusted to teach the Word, when he openly flaunts his behavior that is an abononation to God?"<br /><br />you my friend are an abomination to god!<br />u should change your name to NOsoul...

Re: Gay Bishop

ROFL Sloopy. Some comic relief is needed. Its a big normalization by that church to take this "openly gay" priest as a bishop. The "openly" part means that the church is making him a Bishop with full knowledge, a sanction of sorts. Surely it is understandable that a lot of people are upset about it. It cuts against the grain of what they beleve fundamentally.

Re: Gay Bishop

Ok Mellow, you win. I have no soul. I lack reading comprehension. I don't know what it the Bible means when it says "Man shall not lie with man" or when it says such things are an "abomonation unto God." I just don't get it Mellow. I am just too you, inexperience, ill-read and uneducated to understand life. I love you mellow, gay or not, I love you man.<br /><br />Now smile :D It will do good.
