Keep saying this John H, maybe it will magically become true.
You have to be the most frustrating poster on IM. You post crap over and over again that simply isn't true. As I said in another thread, do like Jodi did and just say you don't believe the Bible. That is a respectable position.
Just misrepresenting what it says over and over again just makes you look like an ignorant jackass.
Hi Pepper,
I am not into "magic".
I stand COMPLETELY by what I have said because it is ABSOLUTELY TRUE - AND ACCURATE. You - and others - can try to change THE FACTS but THE FACTS are STILL what they are - FACTS. What YOU - and others as yourself are trying to do is to BEND facts and change what can not be changed - at least not honestly and accurately. It is not my intention to upset you or anyone else but YOU and others as yourself NEED to FACE THE FACTS AS THEY TRULY ARE and NOT create something that is ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE.
As for misrepresenting, the Bible does that itself - even contradicts itself - because it is written by more than 40 human beings over a long period of time each with their own viewpoint and biases. And that comes out in that book which is really nothing more than a collection of literature.
ANY MAN I know of - REAL MAN - and I would categorize God and Christ in this area, WOULD SAY WHAT THEY - THEY - had to say - THEMSELVES - NEVER leaving anything important to others to "say" for Them!!!!!!.
God, Who we are told is the Creator, CERTAINLY KNOWS the strengths and and weaknesses of Human Beings since He created them. There is NO WAY God - or CHrist - would EVER allow a Human Being to SPEAK FOR THEM. THEY would DO IT THEMSELVES AND DIRECTLY!!!! Especially about things important. Simply put, as far as BiSexuality and Homosexuality goes, THEY BOTH NEVER SAID ONE WORD - EVER. Certainly They did NOT forget.
And remember too, the word "Homosexuality" is a Man-made word created, if I remember correctly about 1889. And if you look at Webster's New International Dictionary (big books), the older editions, at a large library you will NOT find the word "Homosexuality" in that dictionary until around 1930 or so.
Some religions have been printing in their Bibles recently the term "homosexuality" in their editions - THAT IS LYING, PURE and OUTRIGHT! Religions and religious people will do that to try to persuade others to "their thinking"....
Take Care, John H.
