@KindOfAnxious: You forget one major factor in all that you said. That is the fact that we who believe and have been baptized have the gift of the HOLY SPIRIT that confirms for us what is true or false. The HOLY SPIRIT is a spiritual filter and tells us that homosexuality is wrong and i frankly feel sorry for those of you who don't have that relationship with the HOLY SPIRIT because just as JESUS promised us it really does lead us in all truth. No matter how great,no matter how small. Repent !

@READY4REVELATION

Let me illuminate you here. That written word of God you are preaching has been changed and rewritten so many times in the past two thousand years it's sadly nothing but a sick mutating of what God was all about to begin with; Love and Acceptance. Religious leaders of any faith need to recognize the existence of the LGBT community because we were here long before any faith was and will be here long after. The times are changing. Now, what side of history do you want to be on?

@miaomiaochan: How did you get hate out of that comment i made? You heard what you wanted to hear because i didn't agree with your lifestyle. If i care enough to come here to want people to repent for their evils.....including myself, please tell me how that is hate? Are you so twisted that anybody who does not see things your way is accused of being a hater? You really need to grow up and be honest with yourself. The word of GOD is what it is....i didn't write it, that cake was already baked.

@READY4REVELATION May your GOD have mercy on all of you so-called Christians who preach hate instead of love. A GOD who tells his children to hate each other is no GOD.
