Frankly, I'm getting pretty frickin' sick of having to make long lists of vapid qualifiers in a vain attempt to dodge the defamatory shibboleths of the left and their cultural myrmidons on the right.

I use the term "homosexual". I don't like anything about it, but many here think I'm a defender. What i try to do is get into discussions about Biblical concepts and the nature of God's Will and His Love - along with the end result of Jesus' death and resurrection to wash away the sins of the world.

Some are so hung up on the perversions of homosexuality and other gender "orientations" that they totally miss the point.

Have you ever considered the idea it might be because you walk, talk, and swim like the proverbial "duck?"

It is beyond question there is a vigorous movement to normalize homosexuality, and postures such as you adopt show little to no effort to oppose it.

I am more than willing to carry on the kind of Biblical discussion you speak of, but I have to ask: "if you were wrong, how could someone prove it to you?" And that is a serious question. If you have not determined what it would take to prove your position wrong, you won't recognize it even if it is presented to you.

Furthermore, how can you expect to be taken seriously when answering opposition with banal and supercilious riffs like "I feel sorry for them because...etc."

That kind of doctrinaire condescension is usually reserved to adolescents who mistake their parents ignorance of "popular culture" as "ignorance by definition."

I submit to you that the whole "can homosexuals be saved" question, as it is posed by moderns, is as disingenuous and self-serving as the muslim "acceptance" of Jesus as The Christ. Sure, the words are the same, but those words disguise vastly different meanings.
