kiwimac said:Homosexuality is called "To'evah" but then, so is the mixing of threads in a garment and the eating of non-kosher food. Seems to me Paul said something about how we were free from the Law but if we insisted on it in one area we had to keep it all.
Do you?

I thought all sinners could go to heaven?
btw your definition of abomination
a) in ritual sense (of unclean food, idols, mixed marriages)
so that means mixed marriages are bad. all american idol contestants are going to hell. Anyone who idolizes god. anyone who eats lobster or pork, or any of the other unclean foods (that somehow became clean when someoen else said they did)
you dont understand here. All you are getting at is the fact that CHRISTIANITY doesnt support gay marriage. CHRISTIANITY isnt the only religion. the bible also says kill those who worship other gods, kill non believers, but you dont follow those. they go against gods wish, but you do nothing. Why do somethign about this!
Nope, itdoes not. Homosexuality refers to orientaiton--the preference of sexual partners.bibleberean said:The fact that a man defiles the same sex makes the act homosexual.
If someone of the same sex chooses to molest or rape another person of the same sex then their choice shows their preference. Moreover, molestation of someone of the same sex could never be defined as heterosexual because it is between 2 people of the SAME sex, which makes it HOMOsexual.

Heterosexuals abuse children far more often than Gays.
When an adult abuses a child, regardless of their respective sexes, it is pederasty NOT homosexuality.
Homosexuality like heterosexuality is a relationship between two consenting ADULTS.
BibleBerean,
I have studied the Bible for over 25 years, I have advanced doctoral degrees in Biblical Criticism, Comparative religions and theology. I really don't care what you think of me. My relationship is with God, NOT you.

The important question is whether children would be at greater risk of abuse if adopted by gay parents, relative to heterosexual parents.

I agree, to an extent, that that is the proper way to look at it...however it is a slippery slope.
Let's say that statistically, homosexuals were more likely to abuse children, but Hispanics were MOST likely to abuse children. Should they similarly be precluded from adopting kids?
What if it happens predominately in the Pacific Northwest, but very unlikely in the south....should we force kids to move where there is a lesser statisical chance of abuse.
It could be gays, blacks, whites, christians, atheists, people with tatoos etc who are the most likely to abuse. After all, somebody has to be in first place.
Timz said:Thinkerman,
Do you think any behavior could be described as more or less desirable with perspective adoptive parents?

Of course, here is where the division is.... I would consider homosexuals a "class of people" similar to religion, race or nationality, whereas others probably would not say this, but rather classifiy them individually as morally lacking or otherwise.
