'IF I GROW UP TO BE GAY, WILL I GO TO HELL?'

Bee salvatn is by fah alone Christ alone and we are not saved by our works good or bad, y, a homosexual person n go to heaven. If they have, then to ntue wh a homosexual liftyle is livg rebelln and a believer will eventually experience misery and dive disciple. So then, one would no longer be intified by one's prev inty or slavery to any particular past s—whether as a dnkard, adulterer, homosexual, thief, vetor, idolator, fornitor, extortner, etc.

The sexually immoral, idolaters, adulterers, passive homosexual partners, practicg homosexuals, thiev, the greedy, dnkards, the verbally abive, and swdlers will not her the kgdom of God.

THIS I BELIEVE: GAY FOREVER, HELL FOR NEVER

Children hear about Israel Fol's homophobic ments, and they have Pl HeyHer qutn is doubly shockg given she has two gay uncl, we speak openly about homosexualy our fay, and her father and I uld not re ls about the genr of the people she choos to love. LoadgIf my dghter was disturbed by Fol’s ments, image how much more trmatic and troublg his ments are to children who intify as gay, or to those who wonr if they might be.

Growg up I was obliv to the impact that our homophobic muny, Brisbane the ‘80s and early ‘90s, had on my iend’s self homophobic jok, the “fag” pranks such as boys verg school books wh the word “fag”, and, y, people thory clarg that hell awas him, have all ntributed to McCulloch feelg ashamed, unacceptable and unlovable for his entire life. They experience poorer mental health out than their peers as a direct rult of the stigma, prejudice, discrimatn and abe they experience jt for beg, who last week lnched a crowdfundg mpaign aimg to raise $3 ln to ver his legal bills his appeal agast his ntract termatn by Rugby Atralia (which was shut down on Monday morng), fend his homophobic post as “an act of love and passn” have no ia of the effect that the msag have on the people they are I thk of how my iend has suffered om homophobia his whole life, and all the boys and girls, past and prent, who will be eply wound and trmatised by Fol’s words, is unfathomable how anyone uld ever jtify them as lovg or ’s not unmon to e ancient texts to provi jtifitn for hatred, but if Fol wants to play the bible rd, let’s talk about what else he uld do wh $3 ln stead of fendg his right to tell already vulnerable and margalised people that hell awas them. In fact, there are many practicg Catholics who are gay, lbian, etc.

GAY PEOPLE ARE GOG TO HELL, SAYS EXPERT WNS IN MICHIGAN GAY MARRIAGE TRIAL

Martyn Il, managg director of the Atralian Christian Lobby, dodged the qutn this week when asked by Lisa Wilkson on The Sunday Project if he believed that homosexuals go to hell. The Atralian Christian Lobby is now hostg an onle crowd-fundg appeal for Israel Fol’s legal battle agast Rugby Atralia, after Fol was sacked over an Instagram post warng that homosexuals will go to hell.

DO GAY PEOPLE GO TO HEAVEN?

Pl, as Fol has remd , believed that homosexuals, the immoral, idolaters, adulterers, thiev, the greedy, dnkards, revilers and robbers would not her the Kgdom of God (1 Corthians 6. And while Pope John II was agast homosexualy, the teachgs are there and still tght today and n be held up te for any sexual orientatn. —Pope Francis, 2013Armed wh this knowledge, we n beg to discs homosexualy.

‘DON’T E BACK, THEY’LL KILL YOU FOR BEG GAY’

General beliefs, supported by science or not, held by tholics about homosexualy tend to fall to 3 tegori:It’s a mental disorrIt’s somethg you’re born whIt’s somethg you velopScience obvly supports the latter, however this isn’t om the ey of science this is the ey of the Catholic the all appear different, the ntext of sng, they n all be explaed the same way wh a key, distct fact. Homosexualy is not a tomatilly means homosexualy fails the third crern of a Mortal s. Therefore we n nclu that is nsired a passn, a s of passn if you will, which the ey of the Catholic Church, leads the sner to be lsened by the burn of their already venial while Homosexualy self is not a s, the Catholic Church is far om progrsive, but is takg steps the right directn.

The prev paragraph is what much of the LGBT (Lbian, Gay, Bisexual, & Transgenr) muny hears on a daily basis om “Christians” everywhere. As a young gay man, I have learned to hi ont of “those” people; the on who I know will nmn me for wearg eyeler public or holdg my boyiend’s hand. I have been driven out of one of my childhood church and the church I found as a teenager ma me unfortable when the pastor began talkg about all of the immoral people, cludg “the Homosexuals.

” Bee I am gay, fdg a church has been one of the harst thgs to do, right up there wh havg to tell my parents.

WELE TO GAY HELL, MICHIGAN, WHERE ONLY PRI FLAGS ARE ALLOWED TO FLY

Although many Christians don’t agree wh homosexualy, I n’t wrap my md around why people like me would be sent to a place of eternal burng. In a society where most of are expected to be straight, n be difficult to take a step back and ask whether you’re gay, straight, or somethg ’re the only person who n figure out what your orientatn tly is. Havg a sex dream about someone of the same genr as you don’t necsarily make you gay.

And even if there were, who’s to say who qualifi as gay or straight?

You don’t have to fulfill certa “creria” to qualify as gay, straight, bisexual, or anythg is an aspect of your inty, not a job applitn — and you n intify wh whatever term fs you! ” Plenty of people thought they were one thg for the first half of their life, only to fd that wasn’t ’s also possible to thk you’re gay when you’re actually bi, or thk you’re bi when you’re actually gay, for example. Your orientatn may change, but that don’t make any ls valid over time, nor do mean you’re wrong or are some people gay?
