Do you like the way it feels when someone talks about your momma that way.
But go ahead and make yourselves look and sound like the persons you are. It doesn't bother me in the slightest.
(2) Don't bring my momma into this, she has nothing to do with this.
(3) Are you homophobic? What if he really was gay, would he be a lesser person? He is still son of god (they say).
(4) If it doesn't bother you, why then this reaction of yours? Are you not truthful?
Originally posted by FabianFnasI don't think he was gay, rather, the exact opposite. Sort of like the original pimp. I think pulling walking on water and pulling magical fish out of a basket would have gotten him laid in a heartbeat. I imagine he was the first 'rockstar'.
Some says he was gay... With 12 boys around him for years...
Originally posted by Hand of HecateNeither do I. He was probably straight. He had it alright, some says with Mary of Magdalene. Dan Brown even thinks she got pregnant and his childrens children still live with us.

Originally posted by FabianFnasAmong the Christian apocrypha, the "Secret Gospel of Mark" has a homoerotic spin on it, with certain passages indicating that Jesus might have been a switch hitter.

Originally posted by Hand of HecateI wonder why anyone would care at all what his sexual orientation might have been. The story relates that he was tempted in the wilderness by Satan for many many days, and it seems to imply that he came through that test with an A plus. Perhaps he was also a benchmark for the theme of this scripture; "There has no temptation taken you but such as is common to man, but God is just, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that which you are able to bear, but will, with the temptation, also provide a way of escape".
Afterall, the man could turn water into wine, I bet he could get the Roman Consulates daughters to drop their togas like a hot rock.
If it were not for my implacable and incurable atheism, Jesus of Nazareth might have been a friend of mine.

Originally posted by Hand of HecateIf Jesus was a player of epic proportions, he would have been able to find some weeping young Judean to perform crazy masochistic crucifellatio. Besides, according to Scripture, He voiced no complaint about getting beaten by sweaty dudes in legionary costumes. I'm with RWillis on this one.

The question should be 'can we believe anything we read in the bible'
Personally I say he did - I think he was having a tantric relationship with Mary magdalene and had a few good experiences - confusing the resultant experience of what Buddhist know to be the clear light with being one with 'God'. The early church wanted to stamp the practice out because the fact that salvation (or rather more accurately...enlightenment) can be achieved without relying on the church was a threat to the control freaks of the early church - it is for this reason that mary was labelled a harlot by the early church. I doubt jesus and mary were achieving anything more advanved that tantric union - certainly his teachings dont add up to much compared with Buddhist teachings.
