Our Christian hearts, ns the (ually impassned) argument, pel to grant full moral and legal equaly to gay and lbian people; our Christian fah, the (ually impassned) rebuttal, pels to cleave, above all, to the word of God.

JAGS' MAXEN IS FIRST MALE AMERIN PRO SPORTS ACH TO E OUT AS GAY
If there is no clearly stated directive the Bible to margalize and ostracize gay people, then Christians ntug to do so is morally fensible, and mt cease. * pro gay scripture *
They say that the Bible f all homosexual acts as sful, stcts them to exclu om full participatn the church all non-repentant sners (cludg gay people), and morally lls upon them to publicly (or at least rolutely) nounce homosexual acts. Whout an explic directive om God to exclu and nmn homosexuals, the Christian muny's treatment of gay persons is clear vlatn of what J and the New Ttament wrers potedly intified as the most important mandment om God: to love one's neighbor as one's gay muny has cried out for jtice to Christians, who have a biblilly mandated obligatn to be jt. Heterosexual Christians are beg unbiblil by g the clobber passag as jtifitn for applyg absolute standards of moraly to homosexual "ss" that they themselv are not tempted to m, while at the same time acceptg for themselv a standard of relative moraly for those ss listed the clobber passag that they do routely m.
) The fact that homosexualy is so rarely mentned the Bible should be an ditn to of the gree of importance ascribed by the thors of the the Bible is nearly silent on homosexualy, a great al of s ntent is voted to how a Christian should behave. If heterosexual Christians are obligated to look to the Bible to terme the sfulns of homosexual acts, how much greater is their obligatn to look to the Bible to terme the sfulns of their behavr toward gay persons, pecially light of the gay muny's ll to them for jtice?
And so Christians accept as evable that any given Christian will, for stance, on ocsn drk too much, lt or tell a we've seen, the clobber passag Pl also nmns, along wh homosexualy, those three specific ss. Christians draw no moral distctn between the homosexual gang rape the story of Sodom and Gomorrah, the i to which Pl refers his letter to the Romans, the wild sexual abandon Pl addrs 1 Corthians, and nsensual homosexual sex between lovg and mted homosexual partners.
JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS ACH OUT AS GAY
Jacksonville Jaguars ach Kev Maxen has e out as gay, makg him the first out male ach a pro men's league. NBC Sports' Corey Robson explas why this is a big step for football. * pro gay scripture *
Heterosexual Christians are beg unfair and hypocril by g the clobber passag as jtifitn for applyg absolute standards of moraly (and an absolute penalty) to homosexual "ss" that they themselv are never tempted to m, while at the same time acceptg for themselv a standard of relative moraly (and applyg no real penalty) for those ss listed the clobber passag that they do routely there is no monstrable harm arisg om sex wh a mted homosexual relatnship, and there is signifint monstrable harm arisg om discrimatn and nmnatn agast gay persons, what possible biblil basis n there be for not regnizg the vast moral differential between sex acts done wh the ntext of a lovg mted relatnship, and sex acts of any other sort? We would be foolish to fail to unrstand that not everythg the Bible is a mandment, and that Christians nnot take any small sectn of the Bible out of s own ntext, and still hope to ga a clear unrstandg of s the four Old Ttament passag to nmn all homosexual acts is not keepg wh any directive om God, nor wh the practic of ntemporary Bible's first four mentns of homosexualy occur the Old ntug to be spirually spired and fluenced by the Old Ttament, Christians were specifilly stcted by Pl not to follow the law of the Old Ttament, such passag as:The former regulatn is set asi bee was weak and els (for the law ma nothg perfect), and a better hope is troduced, by which we draw near to God. Therefore, the e of the four Old Ttament passag to nmn all homosexual acts is keepg wh neher any directive om God, nor wh the practic of ntemporary the clobber passag Pl nmns the ercive, excsive and predatory same-sex sexual activy practiced by the Romans -- and would have nmned the same acts had they been heterosexual nature.

It's also why the Bible is no longer ed to jtify the cel stutn of slavery, or to ny women the right to as those thoughts and unrstandgs of the New Ttament changed and grew, so today is beg creasgly clear to Christians that the three New Ttament clobber passag (each of which was wrten by Pl letters to or about nascent distant church), when unrstood their historil ntext, do not nstute a directive om God agast LGBT people are the three mentns of homosexualy the New Ttament:Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not her the kgdom of God? --1 Corthians 6:9-10We also know that the law is ma not for the righteo but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sful, the unholy and irrelig, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murrers, for the sexually immoral, for those practicg homosexualy, for slave trars and liars and perjurers -- and for whatever else is ntrary to the sound doctre. --Romans 1:26-27In the tim durg which the New Ttament was wrten, the Roman nquerors of the regn equently and openly engaged homosexual acts between olr men and boys, and between men and their male slav.
BIBLIL PASSAG TO SUPPORT A BISEXUAL OR GAY BROTHER
From a distctly biblil perspective, Kerby Anrson provis answers to arguments offered by pro-gay theologians. As Christians, we need a full biblil view. * pro gay scripture *
As a moral man, Pl was revolted by the acts -- as, certaly, he would have been by the same acts had they been heterosexual Bible's clobber passag were wrten about same-sex acts between heterosexual persons, and do not addrs the subject of homosexual acts between a mted gay uple, bee the ncept of a person beg a homosexual did not exist at the time the Bible was is also cril to our readg of the New Ttament's three clobber passag to unrstand that while of urse Pl knew about sex acts that took place between persons of the same genr, he had no ncept whatsoever of homosexual persons. Pl had no ncept of an entire populatn of people who, as a fundamental, unalterable ndn of their existence, were sexually attracted to persons of the same genr, and not sexually attracted to persons of the oppose is the openg of the OCD's article on homosexualy:"No Greek or Lat word rrponds to the morn term 'homosexualy, ' and ancient Mederranean society did not practice treat homosexualy as a socially operatg tegory of personal or public life.
Sexual relatns between persons of the same sex certaly did occur (they are wily attted ancient sourc), but they were not systematilly distguished or nceptualized as such, much ls were they thought to reprent a sgle, homogeneo phenomenon ntradistctn to sexual relatns between persons of different sex.... Bee there was no ncept of gay marriage when the Bible was wrten, the Bible do not, and uld not, addrs the sfulns of homosexual acts done wh the ntext of gay Bible routely, clearly and strongly classifi all sex acts outsi of the bonds of marriage as sful. Christians therefore have no biblil basis for themselv nmng such fact, by nyg marriage equaly to gay people, Christians are pellg gay upl to s, bee their timacy mt happen outsi of marriage, and is therefore, by biblil fn, personally repelled by homosexual sex don't make homosexual sex a addn to the Bible, many Christians ce as addnal evince of the herent sfulns of homosexual acts their raw emotnal rponse to such acts.
WHY HAVE SO MANY CHRISTIANS AND CHURCH BEE PRO-GAY?
Taken altogether, the evince -- the social ntext which the Bible was wrten, the lack of the very ncept of gay people Pl's time, the abily of gay people to marry, the equy between how the clobber passag are applied between a majory and a mory populatn, the jtice of the punishment for a state of beg over which one has no choice beg excln om God's church on earth and human love generally -- shows that choosg to nmn and exclu gay people based on the Bible is the morally rrect choice. God ma to be relatnship wh Him and wh each other: " is bad for man to be alone" (Genis 2:18) It would be nsistent wh God’s lovg nature to create people who were gay and then nmn them to a life of lonels. “ and “We also know that the law is ma not for the righteo but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sful, the unholy and irrelig, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murrers, for the sexually immoral, for those practicg homosexualy,...
” Matthew addrs the great number of Jewish laws and prophetic teachgs — cludg those that many nsir to nmn homosexualy — by makg clear that the overarchg mand of a fahful life is love: love of God, and love of neighbor. There are others who believe, effect, that the Bible says NOTHING about homosexualy as an orientatn and that those passag that refer to homosexual behavr are not speakg about lovg, nsensual relatnships, but abive and idolatro behavr. And now, precisely bee you are so close, bee of your mon experienc through the universy and aterny, bee your iend tsts and feels safe wh you, bee he embrac the same valu you do, such as honty and tth, he nfis you that he is gay.
Ju 7; 2 Pet 2:6-10]; Lev 18:22; 20:13; Rom 1:24-27; 1 Cor 6:9-11; 1 Tim 1:8-11), if "rightly" unrstood, are eher ambiguo, irrelevant to ntemporary homosexual practice, or refer to perasty or cultic prostutn. 2 Pet 1:20-21), then “ is unthkable that God--who is no rpecter of persons--would be so rels as to offer no guidance His revealed Word to the thoands of homosexuals He knew would exist throughout time, if ed their relatnships were legimate His sight.
