the solution for the cultural war:  afleitch has concluded sexual orientation can be altered by outside influences and/or choice, and that homosexuals are excluded from marrying!


If Jesus were referring to homosexuals in his use of the term “eunuch”, then this is how verses 11 and 12 would read:
1) Those who were born homosexuals
2) Those who were made homosexuals by others
3) Those who have chosen homosexuality in order to be completely devoted to God in some strange way.

Now, according to your fellow homosexuals, gays can not have their sexual orientations altered by others (not even by God) or themselves (they did not choose to be gay).

So this whole argument is transparently and deeply flawed.


Not at all. Just because it would not fit in with the 'born that way' mentality of some gay people (how someone is gay, is in my opinion an irrelevance anyway) It would still exclude homosexuals (eunouchos) no matter how they came to be, from marriage; they would be the legitimised exception to the rule.

Not really. It is not the literal truth; not Adam or Eve, or Eden or the tree. It's symbolic.

Please tell me I am misreading this.  Please tell me you're not seriously attempting to claim that Adam and Eve never existed.

As if to claim such a thing is ludicrous Roll Eyes

yes, it is lucicrous for a Christian to take positions contrary to Christ's and the Apostles' own beliefs...futhermore, everywhere in the book of Genesis where it says "This is the account of...", you're basically saying scripture is lying and that it is not an historical account.   

For a Christian to basically claim that the scripture outright lies and that Jesus Christ himself was deceived by the book of Genesis is simply...weird, dude!

but, if you would like to explain your logic, then please do so in the original thread

How is that any different than saying demon possession doesn't exist even though Christ spoke about it and casts demons out of people?

now you're mocking demon possession? 

so, you believe Jesus' ability to drive out demons was simply a deception?
