But draws the line at homosexuality or rather on sex. In short, god is concerned more with sex than with economic justice, environmental protections or even racial problems. Just sex.
Lisa writes
Not every issue Christians disagree about is black and white. There are shades of grey and room for differences of opinion concerning some issues (eschatology, politics, Calvinism, Arminianism, expressions of worship, etc.). However, sexuality, homosexuality and the number of genders that exist are settled issues. The Bible clearly teaches homosexuality is a sin. Moreover, God made humans in His image, male and female, only, period. (Genesis 1:27, Leviticus 20:13,1st Timothy 1:9-11, 1st Corinthians 6:9).
so go be a good Christian and don’t open a discussion on sexuality.
yes it’s early, but when you get old(er), you wake up, you get up, and then find something to do until nap time. =)
Quick and (not expecting an answer) silly question: if God made us in his image, male and female, does that mean god is BOTH? And if he is, that sorta puts the lie to sexual ‘rightness’ since it seems that if he’s both, we can be either, or all, or none.
bwahahaha we gots us a bisexual deity.

That not silly question deserve an answer. Which image of god are we? And is it same across time?

and has he/she/they morphed (gods can do that. that’s why they’re gods) into something other?
Churches say we’re all created in God’s image. I used to spend entirely too much time mulling that one over, as a kid. If we all look like god…
Maybe looking into the face of god gives us a reflection of each of us, like a mirror on every wall, so that when we look into the god/mirror we see ourselves looking back.
So, she says, straightening up, we are ALL god, honey.

If god is all powerful, can something happen that she doesn’t allow?

Hence, my eternal complaint: Why must WE be “punished for our sins” given that God is responsible for EVERYTHING.
I LOVE the church signs near my place of residence:
“Be careful not to create the God you worship” shows an amusing lack of self reflection, no, since the Christians disagree so much on what and who their god is.

Still on the same matter, would it be possible to offend a omnibenevolent god to make her want to punish us? Love overlooks faults and all. So there is a problem here

The Owner of All Infernal Names conveniently does not offer up that problem. Mr. Zande does not recognize that HE is a PROPHET of TOAIN.

Lisa is the usual Christian who wants to hate homosexuals but ignore her bible when it says that she should be killing those working on the sabbath. Such the failures.

It seems Lisa’s god is concerned with sex only. Shellfish, Sabbath work and all are not as important. You’d think there would be concern about people doing goats and other livestock but nothing

“There are some issues that have shades of grey except for the ones my bigotry and prejudices say are black ‘n white.” Funny how bigots have a god that believes the same bigoted shit they do. What an amazing coincidence.

Interesting thought. Is energy man or woman? The Bible considers God as vast energy. A spirit. Different from man and woman. We are made in his image meaning qualities. We are capable of Love and Compassion and Empathy. I have some interesting articles for anyone interested. If not that’s ok. 🙂 just thought I’d share.
