Homosexuality

kiasimom:
How do you view homosexuality?
To answer this truthfully, ask ourselves what do we want our child/kid to be? The answer is more or less there.... -
Pinkapple, if you don’t mind, I ditto everything you wrote. May I also add the following verses:
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 (New International Version)
Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. -
I am abstracting this from a post I made in the AWARE thread;
Just look at this data from the Durex sexual wellness survey for 2007-8
No. of Partners (Global Averages):
Heterosexual Men -- 13 female partners
Heterosexual Women -- 7 male partners
Homosexual Men -- 108 male partners!!
Somebody please tell me, how is this 'normal'? If this is 'normal' I don't want my children to be 'normal'
The liberals a-la NYT have made it as if they had cornered the market on tolerance, wisdom and virtuosity. They have not asked the question, why has homosexuality been so taboo for so long across so many different diverse cultures? Have they cracked some secret code or have access to a great wisdom that there is normality in an average homosexual having over a hundred sex partners in a lifetime?
We live in a plural society, and as they say, live and let live. I do not ask the gender orientation of my co-workers and friends and even if I knew, it does not affect my professional relationship with them.
To the thorny question of bisexuality in a spouse. It effectively means that the spouse has engaged in infidelity, a man and a woman partner, at the least, yes? If you can tolerate infidelity in a marriage, I suppose its okay, but it is not something that me or my missus will accept in each other. -

lovekidsverymuch:
You can Google Durex sexual wellness survey data to see for yourself.
Ru sure this is correct data :!: :!: -
wow the statistics are quite astonishing...
I've known of many homosexual persons who have a good and lasting relationship with only 1 person.. I agree that infidelity is something I can't tolerate.. but being bisexual doesn't mean that the person will automatically be incapable of being faithful too.. it just means that this person finds both man and woman sexually attractive... infidelity is when a person is involved with more than 1 partner at a time, isn't it?
I know I've definitely had less than 7 partners in my lifetime..
n many 'straight' man or woman are unfaithful too rite?
Being a christian makes it difficult for me to understand how they made the choice, but I choose to love the sinner, not the sin, afterall I'm not perfect too.
If they know and love God, and puts His laws above all their wants and inclinations, good for them; if they don't or struggle with them, I'll just pray for them to know God's love. -
There seems to be alot of myth and superstitious belief about homosexuality.
Firstly, before we want to raise an opinion about something, it is better that we understand that something correctly first, at least factually. Otherwise, an opinion from a person who don’t understand the topic that he/she is talking about is automatically disqualified.
OK.lets look at the definition correctly first.
Lesbian= a female person in gender who fall in love with people of the same sex (female)
Gay= a male person in gender who falls in love with people of the same sex (male)
Bisexual =any person who has the propensity to fall in love with people of both sexes.
Tranvestite= a person who has changed his/her sex.
ok. In some posts, there seems to be a confusion. Homosexuality is not the same as transvestite.
A homosexual person is just a person who fall in love with another person of the same sex, he/she still identifies with his/her own original sex (i.e. he/she has no desire to change his/her sex).
A transvestite however, is a person who psychologically detest or even abhor his/her original sex and has different degree of desire to change his/her sex.
homosexuality is a sexual orientation. "sexual orientation" is a newly discovered biological trait in a person. It is not a choice. He/she repeatedly fall in love with people only of the same sex and it is not their choice. This is very much like heterosexual person, he/she does not choose to fall in love with person of the opposite sex, it is natural, neither does he/she has a control of who he/she will fall in love with. It is like a inner feeling that is predetermined biologically and many scientific evidences pointed towards this conclusion. -
Definitions are there to give some guidelines to the categorisation. As always we the human race love to classify, divide and generalise for our own simple understanding(but not always achieve, sometimes cause more confusion). In reality, people are not so well-defined, so it is not a confused understanding but the real world is such, not so clearly defined as we want to, especially biological make-up, you know how complex is that? Today's medicine cannot even claim to cover all. :lol:
What is real is you really need to know a group of homosexual people, then you will understand who they really are. -

Yah...as if they will tell you who they are since some people already call them sinners; simply pull out verses from their book to justify themselves.Definitions are there to give some guidelines to the categorisation.

Erm, to be fair, I think it's best to qualify that to Christians, all mankind are born sinners, not just some.. to us, yes, homosexuality is taught to be a sin.
We are all entitled to our own opinions, just as you are.. and yes I have several friends who are homosexuals.. even my own sister is one.. they know I love them just the same. If they know u will not judge them, they don see why they need to hide.. I believe it is their choice, because they have shared their struggles with me.. that is my personal opinion
I agree that Biological trait, classifications etc or not, it's just 'science'.. and science is just human understanding of the unknown...sometimes on what are these tests and thesis based on, we wouldn't know... we can all debate or have opinions, but only the Creator, whoever u believe that to be, will know.
I believe the thread starter just thought to seek forummers' opinions, nothing more.. we can still share while respecting each other's opinions rite..
