Then use a different word. Unnatural is obviously to hard to define.

I think we actually agree on that point.

Homosexuals are discriminated because of all the attention they have. Lets just get over it and move on. maybe it wouldn't be a problem if poeple wern't defined by their dexual orientation

Good question. I'd discriminate against a guy who cheats on his wife if he make a point of bragging about it.
If you were an employer, would you deny this man a job?

Um, fornication explicitly means sex outside of marriage. St Paul speaks out against it
all the time. It's been explicitly forbidden in any strain of Christianty that was even
remotely orthodox since its inception.

If you need citations for fornication in the Pauline letters, please let me know, until then,
I will assume that you know where they are or can find them.

I'd be interested in how you would show the "fornication explicitly means sex outside of marriage" from the Bible. I assume you have a Scriptural quote that ties fornication to something other than adultery and specifically to pre-marital sex.

Scuse me! Yoo hoo!

Is there any real difference between a homosexual than anybody else on earth? Hello?? Testing... Is this thing working?

Bob, get the bull horn. I think this thing has quit again.

CAN YOU HEAR ME? IN THE BACK?

I was saying... "What is the difference between a homosexual and anybody else? Any ideas?"

You are kidding, right?

Where does it define 'adultery' as 1) an unmarried man having sex with a married woman;
2) an unmarried woman having sex with a married man; or 3) a married person having sex
with another married person to whom they aren't married?

Fornication has always meant sex outside of marriage. That is its definition. That was its
definition. St Paul didn't need to define it because everyone knew what it meant.

If you are equivocating on the definition of 'fornication,' what makes you think that the
definition of 'homosexual' is fixed?

an easy answer for the question "should homosexuals be discriminated against?"....
Should people with piercings be discriminated against?
Should women be discriminated against?
Should blue eyed people be discriminated against?
Should short/tall people be discriminated against?
Need I go on?
Discrimination is foolishness, it's fear and ignorance rolled into one.We all bleed red blood have the same number of corresponding body parts (gender not withstanding) So are we not all entitled to the same respect to life. To live our lives in the way we so choose?
For all the references to the bible, I'm no expert (understatement) but does it not say:
Judge not lest ye be judged yourself...
love thy neighbor as thyself...
let he who is without sin cast the first stone....
ect. ect. ect.
I'm not sure I fully understand what the bible has to do with discrimination other than I'm pretty sure it discourages it

So you are assuming you have the correct definition?? Is it possible that you don't know what Paul meant?

You mean besides being sexually attracted to those of the same sex? Or sexual active with those of the same sex? Other than those, I can't think of any differences.
