...and a point that I will follow through with on this being my last point in this subject.

this is what i was saying in my earlier post. When you asked why does Christianity view homosexual love as wrong and I proceeded to list four reasons why CHRISTIANS view it as wrong. I stated that there was no possible way to convince you of the Christian argument unless you were willing to take a look at the Christian belief system open and honestly. Yet, you then answer and say that those reasons are unacceptable.

::shrug::

there's nothing else that can be said. You're assuming that a Christian (whose naming is that of Christ) sees their belief as one out of many possible answers. You're assuming that a Christian sees the law of nature as maleable. You're assuming that a Christian would disregard old values for those of the new Age. In other words, you're taking your "religious" views and imposing them on Christians and saying they're wrong.

There was a saying I once heard that was the most close minded individual is the one who is open-minded to everything. The Open-Minded immediately rejects the idea that there is only one way...closing off the possibility that there is only one way.

There is no arguement here. I tried to show the differentiation in the definition of love versus mans use and the Biblical use. I tried to explain the Christian's reasoning and it was rejected as false.

there is nothing else to be said. Imagine, if you found the Christian reasoning offensive, how much worse is it if you knew that Christians see no way to eternity but through Christ and damnation welcomes all others?

The statement is so close-minded and repugnant. What if it were right?

Such is life...
