Exactly what is the problem with homosexuals serving in the military? What does being Homosexual have to do with protecting one’s country? Is it because most men in the military are sexual predators and have a lot of sex while being shipped out and is it that they are afraid that homosexuals who join are just like the straight counter parts and will therefore do the same thing to the straight men as the straight men do to those they prey on? Hmm weren’t bought sold… no...
When YHWH set his commandments for us to obey, gay or homosexuality was not an option, it is sin. It is adultrey,idolatry,perversion, with out the Love He meant. He gave each of us the ability to turn from sin. What you do in the flesh is lust but, if you Love Yahweh you will keep His commandments, which is Love. Just like in the days of Noah!!!
Take a look at the real, hard facts people! Don't be fooled by this video. The FBI government website reports that HATE CRIMES against people of color is reported in 52.9% of all cases and against RELIGIOUS people in 18.0% of all cases. The homosexuals were only 15% of the reporters of BIAS HATE CRIMES!!! This law PROTECTS seeks to protect Christians! I've been in police work on the streets and as a teacher of self defense for the past 15 years. I've been exposed to many "Bias Crime" cases. I'm also a white person of Catholic faith. The facts are not relayed in this video. "A hate crime is a criminal offense committed against a person or property motivated, by the offender's bias against a racial group, religion, ethnicity, gender, sexual preference, or disability. Thus, college student Annie Grossman, a Republican from Alaska who supported Palin by wearing a button when she was physically attacked - IS entitled to the same rights and protection under this Bias Crime law. If you fight to have the law repealed for one class distinction, it will then be removed for all. Think, study and know the facts before you act!
The Bible guarantees only one significant right: John 1:12 (King James Version)
John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power [the right and authority] to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name"
Make use of that option. Receive Jesus as Lord and Savior, as the anointed Messiah of all who will believe in Him. Will YOU?
In my estimation the coming crisis in America, due in part to the misunderstanding about homosexuality, will so overshadow the gay message as to cause most Americans to daily beg God for relief from their sufferings. Read the book Lamentations (in the Bible) and consider the many many wars in other places and times; you will see that America is fat, greedy and full of pride. These are the underlying sins that sexual immorality ride on.
I am sorry csacolonel, but, your references do not prove your point. They do not say that a homosexual does not have a choice in their behavior. You are talking about 2 different things!
YES, I believe that homosexuality is an abominable sin against a Holy God, and if unrepented, will lead to eternal destruction. But NO, I do not believe that homosexuals/transgenders have a choice, but are indeed born that way.(Refer to Romans 9:22). Scriptural reference that those born that way, if unrepentent will see eternal destruction, pls see Acts 13:48. Some are foreordained for salvation, and some are foreordained to destruction. Why? Again, refer to Romans 9:22. N'uff said.
I thought the video was very informative. Read some of the comments and thought that some people didn't get the idea that to disagree with someones behavior is not equal to hating that person. They obviously don't have children. Perhaps they need to get control of their emotions and actually think and consider what is being said.
Wow, very powerful and truthful video. Free Speech appears to be a right for everyone but Christians. The fact that stations removed this from their air fulfills the message of this video. Its amazing that Homosexuals can disagree with Christian truth and that is ok...but if Christians disagree with and speak against homosexuality their biggots? Where is the level playing field?
Simpy put, God condemns homosexuality as He condemns all sinful behavior because it destroys the individual, not only his body but more importantly, his/her soul. Jesus reached out to the sinner, BUT NOT TO CONDONE HIS/HER SIN, BUT TO TEACH HIM/HER THE TRUTH AND CONVERT THEM! Romans 1, 24-32:Their females exchanged natural relations for unnatural, and the males likewise gave up natural relations with females and burned with lust for one another and thus received in their own persons the due penalty for their perversity. I Cor 6,9o you not know that the homosexuals will not inherit the kingdom of God?
I would like to say that "conversion" doesnt happen. The gay community is out to covert all heterosexuals to our side. This isnt the presidential election. I dont care what you do in the privacy of your bedroom that is between you another consenting adult. However it seems to be a huge issue for most of the ppl on this website. Do you really feel that hate and fire and brimstone is passing the true message of God. If sin is sin then you are in the same boat if you count everything in the Bible as accurate. Even if you renounce the "sins" you have commited some of you commit dozens or more everyday without knowing it. Hating me, or other gay ppl is commiting muder in your heart.... SIN! Coveting women...... SIN. Lying to those around you.... SIN. Talking back to parents, eating shellfish, and cursing.... SIN SIN SIN. My point is that no one is perfect and the true message of christianity is that compassion and love for all creation is the only way that God wants you to live.
The video was entertaining but really off base on a number of things. I particularly took exception to the radio personality that said she was gay but has repented and is now straight. She goes on to say that she went into the "gay lifestyle" because her father abused her mother. (I wonder if he was christian). As I understand it, by saying this she admitted to not being gay in the first place. She was a troubled kid and wanted to strike out as best she could at the time. She chose "gay" as a weapon. This is supposed to make me think that all gays can go straight?
There is so much baloney in this video. I recommend to all the bible readers to read as their truth the gospels, forget about the rest. If Jesus is THE MAN, then read him, who cares about the others. It's only their opinion, just like this is only mine.
I did a word search on the new testement and found no comments on the subject by Jesus. Maybe I need a new bible. I've read the gospels more than once and found the same, nothing on homosexuality as stated by Jesus.
I'm 18, last year I was asked to speak at a Christian Rally @ a local high school I used to attend. I spoke about my friends who did drugs, dropped out, & became "gays" I believe one of the teachers who supported the Christian club got kicked out because of it.. Praise God that teacher is doing great now but that was truly unfair because they questioned the teacher, pulled out students to question about the teacher, and pressured that teacher.
Conversion in public schools is all important to the gay agenda, in reality recruitment is their only tool for increasing their ranks and furthering their cause, I believe procreation is not an option.
In any event it is just another example of man putting faith in himself rather than God. I've read the book, seen the ending, and depending on which side your are on it isn't pretty.
God ordered certain nations to be destroyed because of their wickedness but this did not apply to all. Perhaps their sexual immorality led to STDs that could only be eliminated through extermination of everyone (similar to the AIDs plague in Africa today); however the Bible only refers to their worship of pagan Gods (which always included temple prostitution, etc). Other nations defeated in war...
Why are only some passages in the Bible still seen as relivant. Like for Example Leviticus speaks not only about homosexuality but of slavery, unclean(non-virginal) women, about adulters, cursing your parents.
Deutronomy talks about destroying nations when you take their land.
So does this mean that women shouldn't have rights and should be at home SERVING their husbands with SLAVES from "foreign" lands helping them do the work and making sure that they stone their children to death if they utter a remark against them. I doubt that anyone person could kill their child for telling them to shut up. Also does it make it ok if another nation came and bombed every city in America under the Umbrella of religion. I doubt it, Sept. 11 didnt seem to go down very well with any of us.
I could go on for HOURS LITERALLY but here is my point and I hope if you do nothing more than read this understand, I am a Christian and I love ALL people, I accept flaws because unlike Christ we arent perfect. Know this to be true ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE. So make your bed if you fell you must but dont be suprised if it is hotter than what you thought.
And, Brad, we forgive you for what you refuse to accept. But it is not our forgiveness you will need in your future. Your relationship with your maker is something you will be dealing with at some point in time. Let's not vilify those who are standing up for our children, so they are not indoctrinated by the "media" and their godless ambitions.
Gays your lies will destroy you. You're homicide rate, suicide rate, death rate from diseases (aids, hepatitis, std) should be a warning to you and don't blame it on the church or God. As for the lies that God has no problem with homosexuality I suggest you read Romans 1:18-25 or what happened to Sodom and Gomorah. Turn from your lifestyle and turn to Jesus. It's not too late.
I am so looking forward to our Father God to return and all I know is, every knee will bow and each soul will be held accountable for their own lives no matter how good or how bad. God will have the last say and all our mouths will be shut. YYiiiiipppppeeeeee!
The fact is that everyone sins, either you will repent and come to one and true GOD before its to late or you will wont. There will be the taken and the LEFT BEHIND.
This video is wrong on so many levels, I don't have enough time in the rest of the year to devote to rebuttal. To think that the money spent making it could have been put to good use; eg. if casual gay sex is public toilets is a genuine public health risk... do something about it and the reasons for it.
With great horror I watched the film. You know, perhaps my evangelican christian friends should go back and actually take the words of Jeschuah to heart.
Is the american evangelical christian community in such awful shape that it has to find a scapegoat (gays) in order to vent it's rage??
Christians have every much a right to free speech and freedom of expression as all other human beings. The very presence of this video, which I consider to be a horrible shame and a terrible disgrace for all God-loving christians, is proof of this point.
And you know, Hitler used very similar techiniques: portraying the majority as a persecuted minority and then declaring war by all means in order to rid the "scourge". The path that the makers of this film are taking is not one whit different.
Fortunately, I know enough wonderful christians in order to know that they will also puke when they see this film.
This paranoia has now gone too far. Preachers who are making oodles of greenbacks off of poor christians by feeding them this nonsense are the real problem here.
But feel free to express your view. No one is trying to silence you, even if you are going out of your way to convince the public that christians, which comprise the overwhelming majority of this country, are somehow being silenced.
Excellent show! Many wrote that all religions are allowed to share their view, and that this show was bad. But, hey, we're just expressing our view like many of you said religious freedom was about. Also, Christians don't want homosexuals to go to jail, but we want the right to express our view (religious freedom). However, homosexuals are pleased to see the Christian view silenced and for Christians to go to jail or even fired from their jobs. So where is the homosexuals respect for religious freedom?

I don't care if you make love to monkeys, just don't ask me to approve it as a lifestyle that is good for everybody, because it's not -- hey how about -- I won't ask you about it (that way I won't put you on the spot) and you don't tell me about something I think is sick and is a personal thing between you the monkey and God (that way you don't put me on the spot) ... it is nobody’s business what anyone of us do in privacy with a consenting adult .. take it up with God .. I don't want to hear about it.
i feel for you rayosun. nonsense like this paints a terrible portrait of what 'christianity' is. i did have a pretty good laugh though!
heavelyna, people die every day all over the world because people dogmatically follow the word of their 'bible' and annihilating those they belive are "wrong". Wisdom, compassion, and understanding are much more powerful tools than blindly following some "higher authority" you believe to be infallible. apparently, christians "shalt not kill" but that seems to be a bit of a "sometimes" rule for some "christians" in this country too. it's the people with hair coming out of their ears that really should be exterminated. can't stand lookin' at tha bastards!
I can't believe the ignorance on display with most of the comments posted here thus far. This video shot straight from the hip. There was no hidden agenda, nor was there any apology for the stance taken -- that, my friends, is rare. You may disagree, but I've not seen facts presented more accurately -- do the research -- yet you still attempt to characterize this piece as "distorting the truth,... and outright lies"! That kind of thinking is at once ridiculous -- all of what they put forth can be easily verified -- but it also demonstrates a total lack of clear, rational thinking. Oh, and I viewed the video twice to try to hear whatever it was you heard about "rights granted to blacks as 'special'". It just wasn't there -- oh, and by the way-- it is NAACP you're wanting to send that misinformation to. All in all a good piece of journalism -- although I think the over-arching concern should be freedom of speech/thought for all! If government begins "Silencing the Christians" as you say, where will they stop -- everyone should be concerned. This is not simply a homosexuals against Christians/ Christians against homosexuals issue as many think. It is more about basic freedoms of thought and speech, which, I would agree don't seem to be treated with equanimity in this country as well as in others.
This is not Our Bible this is the word of God,And God say's it's a abomination for 2 men (or women) to lay together....God said that. It's wrong period........
This is kind silly guys...callng basic human rights "special"...I have forwarded your link to the NCAAP regarding your survey calling rights grented to blacks as Special ....I'm sure they will be thrilled to hear so called Christians using that kind of rhetoric...as far as homosexuality..I don't care if you like it ..fear it...whatever you have plenty of places to express your belief system ...and we ours... Once I heard live and let live ..sounds to me like a pretty good idea... but if you think you can distort the truth and use out of context statements and outright lies..You are mistaken ..that dog dont hunt...and your true bigotry will be exposed ...you see based on the last election your politics of hate lost big time...we are a UNTITED STATES! With respect for ALL not just Christians....not just whites....Your time is past God is available to everyone..not just those who read YOUR BIBLE...the relegious spectrum in America and the World is way more diverse than you can imagine...Peace Be With All of US
As a Christian clergyman, I'm amazed at the paranoia of some of my fellow Christians who imagine that they are like an oppressed minority in a country that has consistently elects only Christians to its highest offices. I hear Catholics whining about being persecuted when they have a MAJORITY of their own in charge of the U.S. Supreme Court - despite representing only 25% of the U.S. population.- Unless these people have TOTAL... Freedom of religion doesn't mean that any particular religion can do anything it wants; it means that every viewpoint is allowed expression - including those which your religion may not like.
Hmm weren’t bought sold… no...
I think this sums this up.
18.3 percent were victims of an...
Religious bias
Of the 1,628 victims of an anti-religious hate crime:
4.3 percent were victims of an anti-Catholic bias.
Sexual-orientation bias
Of the 1,512 victims targeted due to a sexual-orientation bias: 1.8 percent were victims of an anti-heterosexual bias.
