    Why do you say that?

    What makes you say that I don't "profess to know God?" Why would you assume that I am not a Christian?

    I, too, believe I have made the right choice by choosing to serve God. And I would ask you to prove your assertion that committed, loving, monogamous relationships between two people of the same gender are "killing people in droves."

      Gladly

      Just contact the CDC regarding aids death rates in children age 13-17. As a matter of fact opposingviews had an article recently stating just that fact. You must not be reading legitimate authentic facts otherwise youd know that the homosexual community is worse off now than when they began their tolerance movement in schools . More kids are dying now than ever before and we can thank legislation, liberal teachers, and a very promiscuous homosexual lifestyle for that!

        Rising AIDS among 13-17

        Rising AIDS deaths among 13-17-year-olds doesn't have anything to do with gay people, particularly not with gay people who are in committed, monogamous relationships. Typically, children who die from AIDS were infected by their heterosexual mothers, usually because of heterosexual promiscuity or her IV drug use . Lay blame where it belongs, not at the feet of gay people in committed, monogamous relationships. I'm no more responsible for those children's deaths than you are, perfecthope.

      Well take your pick

      You say Jesus would not approve of disapproving of homosexuality but the OT spelled out what sexual perversion was and he told sexually immoral people to SIN NO MORE.
      You ignore the evidence against same-sex unions and adoptions and choose to place children and our society, as a whole, in danger.
      My estimatation would be that you have made your choice, and that ok, its just not the right one,in my opinion.

        The Bible

        The Bible says nothing about committed, monogamous relationships between same-gender-oriented people. It has a great deal to say about heterosexuals who commit rape on the battlefield, heterosexuals who engage in idolatrous temple orgies, and heterosexually-married people who commit adultery with people of either gender.

        Jesus says absolutely nothing about the topic at all. He condemns adultery, divorce and remarriage, and the hypocritically religious who go about judging others.

        On the other hand, the Old Testament DOES condemn wearing clothing of mixed fiber, eating shelfish, and a great many other things which most modern Americans , even those who call themselves " Christians " do on a regular basis.

        Jesus loves me. God made me. God brought me together with my beloved spouse of nearly 19 years and gave us our two beautiful children . God does not condemn me for being married to my wife in a marriage every bit as committed, monogamous, holy and sacred as is (I presume) your own.

        13-17

        You didn't answer her question. The only way a woman can get AIDS is through heterosexual sex . What does children with AIDS got to do with lesbians?
