104. Since you repeated your post
I will repeat mine that was meant to be in response to yours.

HOW you select which word of God is the word of God is what is bullshit. Now I am really, really annoyed. Here is what I said.

Oh please, how do you choose what abominations to God are abominable and still an abomination?

Yes, men who lay with men are called an "abomination to god" in the Old testament. (Women who lay with women are never mentioned) So are the loathsome shellfish eaters or those who sit in a chair a menstruating woman sat on or even those who work on Sundays. Most agree those are stupid.

But what about the things that do count? Dishonest business practices is called an abomination to God many times. Oppressive treatment of others and a haughty attitude are an abomination to him.

These six things doth the LORD hate:
yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
A proud look, a lying tongue,
and hands that shed innocent blood,
An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations,
feet that be swift in running to mischief,
A false witness that speaketh lies,
and he that soweth discord among brethren.


Those who justify the wicked or condemn the just as "abominations". I could go on but you get the idea.

People feel so smug saying "God said it, not me". Just BULL!
They pick out one thing, gay men (and stretch it to include gay women) and preach it and judge by it, pronounce in as the word of God.

Doesn't matter that Jesus didn't mention it. And the ones that DO matter just aren't mentioned as Christian virtue anymore, as things that God hate even though Jesus preached about them too.

So let us cheat each other for money and shed innocent blood and lie and all that, but you get to heaven if you denounce gay sex. Ain't that holy.

It disgusts me and I am not Christian and I am not gay.
