Since this question relates to the natural moral law, the arguments that follow are addressed not only to those who believe in Christ, but to all persons committed to promoting and defending the common good of society.Where do the Calvinists stand on this issue? Mom, could you ping your list?
To: ThomasMore
I believe many Calvinists, including the late R.J. Rushdoony and Cornelius van Til, disapproved of the idea of "natural law" - holding, in accordance with their Calvinist principles, that nature is in a state of total depravity and that only positive supernatural law could be adduced to justify Christian morality.

Where do the Calvinists stand on this issue? Mom, could you ping your list? We would stand against any form of same sex marriage , seeing homosexuality as an abomination before God
I will ping for more thoughtful discussion

From my FR homepage (so it must be right ;->)
I believe that my sins are no better than anyone elses. In the eyes of God, a homosexuals sin is no worse than mine. Yes, there will be homosexuals in heaven (gasp). Those who accept the atoning death of Christ, and renounce their lifestyle, will be there. Those who seek to have the church approve of, and celebrate their lifestyle, will have some explaining to do (as will the church leaders who play into this).
Thanks for including The Swarm on this tread!
