I would love for any of you hypocritical liars to explain why taking a stand against homosexuality is a "phobia", while at the same time taking stands against fornication, adultery, lying, stealing, murder, etc are not considered "phobias".

I have asked this question for months on end within this forum and have yet to receive an answer.  Why has my question gone unanswered?  Is my question too difficult to understand, do I need to reword it to make it more comprehensible?  Or is the answer to the question so obvious and revealing that it silences all response?

So consider yourselves ignorant of your own bigotry against anyone taking a moral stand.  But know this, your inability to answer is duly noted.

You have itchy ears - believing only what you want to believe:

2Tim 4:3-4 For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.








Well, I'll take a crack at it. I know I've answered this before.

A lot of people don't get their sense of what is right and wrong from the Bible. I personally don't consider homosexuality a sin, while I do consider the other things that you listed to be sins. That's why.

I realize that your entire view of morality is rooted in Scripture, but I'm a Christian too, and I've prayed to God for moral guidance many a time myself. The message that I feel I am getting from Him is to follow my own moral conscience, even if it contradicts what the Bible says. Call me a nut if you'd like, but that's what I feel that God has spoken to me, and I can assure you that I feel just as strongly that that is God's message as you feel that God's message to you is to follow every word of the Bible literally. The message that I have gotten from God from my prayers to him has been that he instilled in me a good, strong moral compass, and that I should follow it. I know I've fallen short of doing this 100% of the time, as we all have, but I can assure you that I feel just as strongly that my beliefs come directly from personal communication with God as yours do.
