As a Christian, gtfo with homophobia. All people are made in Gods image and so to condemn the gay and transgender people is to condemn the Lord. Take one of the greatest commandments seriously: love thy neighbour.

One of the greatest commandments. But it's not the greatest. The greatest is to love the LORD your God with all of your heart, soul, mind and strength. That means loving Him more than any human and not engaging in relationships that dishonour Him.

Everyone has sinned and yet is made in God's image. No human is not made in God's image. Does that mean that we shouldn't have a definition of right and wrong? By no means!

I never said to hate your neighbour.

Don't care. If you cannot obey loving thy neighbour then you're not a true Christian.

Loving your God means to love thy neighbour, that is what Jesus says. Quite literally citing from the motherfucking Bible:

"There is no commandment greater than these.”

If you wish to argue further with me, go first treat gay and transgender people with due respect as a true Christian should. If you cannot do that, then you are no longer a Christian.

I never said we should not treat gay and transgender people with due respect.

engaging in relationships that dishonour Him.

Your idea of due respect is saying that being gay is dishonoring god?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago) (1 children)

According to the Bible, engaging in homosexual activity is dishonouring God.

I'm just saying what the Bible says.

Romans 1:26-27

For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.

The Bible says lots of things.

Should adulterers be put to death?

John 8:1-11

but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. Early in the morning he came again to the temple. All the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them. The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery, and placing her in the midst they said to him, “Teacher, this woman has been caught in the act of adultery. Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?” This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her.” And once more he bent down and wrote on the ground. But when they heard it, they went away one by one, beginning with the older ones, and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him. Jesus stood up and said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more.”

God is so infallible he changes his mind on what is right and wrong, but let's treat a snapshot in time of his teachings from a couple thousand years ago as eternally true!

So if you aren't a Christian, why do you care? We don't need to conform to your beliefs.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago) (1 children)

When Christians stop using their religion to force laws onto the general populace I will stop caring.

I don't care about the other religions that aren't popular enough to do that here, just the one that negatively impacts me and the people around me.

I'm not doing that. I already said that. You still took issue.

1 Corinthians 5:12 ESV

For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those inside the church whom you are to judge?
