A ruthless murderer/rapest does this all his life, then repents, then hit by car, gos to heaven.
Examples, lying, cheating, rejecting Christ is a sin.
I recall one of your posts from another thread where you conceded being less than charitable, but said that it didn't matter because you were a Christian and already forgiven for your sins. Would this also apply to gays who are Christians?

Philippians 4:5-7
"Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. be anxious for nothing but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;and the peace of God wich surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."

If a homosexual male lies and cheats, then he should repent of lying and cheating, just as a heterosexual male who lies and cheats should repent.
On these boards you have repeated insulted and degraded those who do not think as you do. When a member (xian or not) rebukes you for being an embarrassment to the cross ...[text shortened]... him for engaging in sodomy, he could just say, "I'm not perfect, just redeemed."

You may think they are insults but it is the Truth without Christ you can't go to heaven.

You give insults yourself by saying xian.
Why is writing 'xian' an insult? Isn't 'X' a contraction for 'Christ' that stems from the Greek alphabet (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian)? Do you view 'xian' as having a pejorative connotation?

You can grouse all you want about insults but the fact remains the bible was written by men and the proof that it was not inspired by a god is the fact that homosexuality is not a choice, it has been proven there is a big differance in the brains of gays, well maybe not a huge differance but enough to change their sexual orientation. So if its not a choice then the passages in the bible that condemn homosexual acts cannot have come from a god, since in your view god made everything including gays. So first he/she/it makes humans and presumable Adam and eve were not gay so they came later so god presumably made them also as part of its big plan, right?
So the big plan then includes the part where god makes them only to condemn them for what makes them differant from straights?
You can't have it both ways. How could you worship some god who would create gay people only to condemn them for what they are?
