We have to understand that the notion of a homosexual sexual orientation is a notion thats only about 125 years old, he added.
C'mon, Genie baby, you modern man, you!! You can do better than that!
How sad that you've never actually READ the HOLY BIBLE, the SCRIPTURES, the WORD OF GOD! And you call yourself a 'holy man'?? Puleeze.
Old Testament
Leviticus 18 (KJV)
22) Thou shalt not
lie with mankind
, as with womankind: it is abomination.
New Testament
1 Corinthians 6:9 (NASB)
8)On the contrary, you yourselves wrong and defraud. You do this even to your brethren.
9) Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals
10)nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God.
Timothy 1:10 (NASB)
8) But we know that (Y)the Law is good, if one uses it lawfully,
9) realizing the fact that law is not made for a righteous person, but for those who are lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers
10) and immoral men and homosexuals
and kidnappers and liars and perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound teaching,
11) according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, with which I have been entrusted.

This Bishop cannot be possibly trusted to understand the scriptures:
So the real question when you look at Scripture is, What did it mean to the person who wrote it? said Bishop Robinson.
"the person who wrote it" is God. But apparently the Bishop thinks the Bible is just a collection of the words of fallable men who only wrote what they thought, without input from God, and therefore the commands therein are flawed and should be ignored.

1 Corinthians 7:2
Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

Thanks to Vicki Gene Robinson for reminding us that:

They don't do it with the koran, but it's OK with the Bible. These people will sell you a prayer hankie for $1,000 or even a little bottle of oil. Come one come all!

This man committed ADULTERY while married to his WIFE. Last time I looked, that was in the TEN COMMANDMENTS. How dare he lecture anyone on what is in Scripture!!!!
Hate is un-Christian, so I will simply say that I despise this man and pray that his perversity will stop destroying my Church.

Nor does the Bible speak to the proper maintenance of aircraft.

Nor does the Bible speak to the proper maintenance of aircraft. We are encouraged not to fly.
Matthew 28:20
Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, low, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Don't burn me at the stake for heresy, it is just a joke.

Nobody could be this ignorant. He must be lying.
One word response to his worthless "ancient times" argument:
Antinous.

He has to say that, doesn’t he?
What a coward he is; If he wants to be of the world, instead of in it, leave.
He’s obstinate to the point of denying scripture to make himself his own small g god.
Lord have mercy.

Gene Robinson’s Bible must be very thin.
To: NYer
“Robinson, who was married and has two daughters, divorced his wife and is now involved in a homosexual relationship.”
The bible addresses his current situation in a very clear and direct fasion. Despite his uncertainty about homosexuality, he should feel convicted about adultery.
To: AppyPappy
...because, you know, if the Bible did say that, well, he'd repent right away.

Hate is un-Christian, so I will simply say that I despise this man and pray that his perversity will stop destroying my Church. Not true:
Deuteronomy 12:31 (New International Version) 31 You must not worship the LORD your God in their way, because in worshiping their gods, they do all kinds of detestable things the LORD hates. They even burn their sons and daughters in the fire as sacrifices to their gods.
There are plenty more verses.
To: DYngbld
Isn’t there a Bible verse that says something like leave your father’s house and cleave to your husband?
