I guess barabbas according to you then we should recall all missionaries and just sit in our ivory towers built to the glory of men and not go and preach the gospel to anyone since if you back up to: Quote:
Rom 1:18-25
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19 because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. 20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse. 21 For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God, or give thanks; but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures.
Homosexuality always follows a decline in hetrerosexual morality. In other words it is the result of the straight world starting the ball rolling.
I believe you are the one who has accussed us of judging those outside the church and quoted 1 Cor 5:13 as why we should not be doing so and then you turn around and make a judgmental post like this one?
Where in what is called the Great Commission do you see any exceptions?
24 Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, that their bodies might be dishonored among them. 25 For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

You know what. I will just have to let you be. I am not saying that you are wrong for standing against homosexuality in your life; I agree with you and share a mutal abstinence from that lifestyle. However, If gays get fed up with being prohibited from marrying, and they decided to find land in some nation that would enable them to set up their own government, are you telling me that if G.W and the Christian right wanted to prevent gays from setting up their own nation that you would support that ? Yes or no; answer the question then explain. What I am basically asking you, is do you support "Christians" forcing gays to stay in America if they plan to go else where and start their own government, or do you support letting them be as they are? If they were successful in setting up a gay government, would you visit that country, and would you support the U.S government if they tried to "Castro" (embargo) this new government ?I repeat, I know that they will have to stand before the Lord on the day of judgement - they will have no excuse.....period.
Review
Question 1: Do you think it is right for Christians to support this U.S government in preventing gay people from starting their own gay government with a gay constitution, etc in a foreign nation ?
Question 2: Would you visit this country if it was against it's laws to preach a gospel which condemns homosexuality ?
Question 3: Would you support this country if it decided to boycott this country, and wanted to prevent "Gayonia" from entering the United Nations, N.A.TO, etc ?
