    Yet another good example of the sister religion of peace and tolerance, that Mohammed didn't found with the intent of global domination and subjegation.

    Oy....

    Well I suppose whilst Christians are fighting for gay-rights, Islam is standing up getting ready to take the world by "surprise"
    Fenris: "There are two ways to shoot an arrow into a bulls-eye You can shoot the arrow into the bulls-eye or you can shoot the arrow and paint the bulls-eye wherever it hits"

    Romans 12:19 Don't seek revenge ... give place to God's wrath. For it is written "Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord"

    Isa. 30:32
    And every blow of the rod of punishment, which the Lord will lay on him, will be with the music of tambourines and lyres; And in battles, brandishing weapons, He will fight them

    G_d was gracious He has shown favor

    What are you willing to die for? Now live for it!

    Maybe I need to put it like this: Whilst "Christians" are fighting for gay-right....

    I always put it as Whilst christians are fighting for acceptance of the homosexual lifestyle. If course Christians never do this, but christians do it a lot.

    You'll have to explain that a bit better for me to understand what you are meaning. Why should any Christian care what an unbeliever does?

    And our being a Christian is determined by whether or not we condemn unbelievers for homosexuality?

    There are denominations that have not only condoned homosexuality but also have voted to ordain openly gay ministers and to perform gay marriages.

    As a Christian I am to obey the whole word of God and not pick and choose as I please. How they explain going counter to what scripture says is beyond me.
    This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

    I agree Brian. Homosexuality is a sin. No one should "marry" a same sex couple and say it is sanctioned by "the church". It is not.

    But homosexuality is not a "larger" sin than fornication or gluttony or lying. Is it?

    No, it isn't. Some people may want to claim it is, for whatever reason, but the truth is that it isn't.

    Re: Man arrested for insulting Islam on Facebook

    Two questions then:

    1. Why is it "wrong" to allow two people of the same sex to have a civil union but it's "fine" for an obese male and a gossipy female to get married in a church?

    and

    2. What does the government of Egypt arresting a person who said something against Islam have to do with standing up for civil rights in the United States?

    Nope. In fact I have stated that very thing on this very forum in the past.

    What does the government of Egypt arresting a person who said something against Islam have to do with standing up for civil rights in the United States?

    Nothing as far as I can tell. But I'm a good bunny that's just a hoppin on down the bunny trail.

    No.

    It seemed to me that you were asking what the Christians and gays in America had to do with the OP. I was saying that it didn't have anything to do with it as far as I could tell but that like a dumb bunny I hopped on the rabbit trail with my post.

    I'm kind of obscure sometimes.

    S'alright. I can be dense at times.

    So, you had the same question I had - and neither of us have an answer but that's ok too.

    Thank you, Brian!
