Biology Says That Two People With The Same Gender Cannot Procreate

That isn't an answer.

Animals do it, so why not people?

Animals also sometimes eat their young, so why not people?

That's an extremely weak attempt at deflection.

That's an extremely weak attempt at deflection.

So then you should be able to answer it.

Well the execution part is outdated but it should have gone without saying that I believe that a couple should be married first before having kids.

If execution is out-dated, then so is the prohibition on homosexuality ... and incest ... but that's not what Christ said ...

17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
-- Matthew chapter 5 ...

Fighting against extra-marital sex is too much work ... easier to pick on the weakest of our society instead, folks who don't deserve mercy ... but I digress ...

We can't just pick and choose which out-dated law we impose on others, we either have to impose all the laws on everybody ... or use a different body of law, like here in the United States ... God laughs at democracy, see how rampant divorce is today? ... what a joke ...

The point is valid because you attempted to use animal behavior to justify human behavior. My post showed why that was such a weak justification, and you have nothing substantive to add.

No,... The sins are still the same but Christ's death and resurrection changed the punishment for them if you have accepted Him as your Lord and Savior.

Truth is that he's got nothing.

Including same sex couples?

 

[Road Runner]

Including same sex couples?

No but I would much rather the kids be raised by gays than some other whackos out there.

No? Why not?

 

[ReinyDays]

We let God administer the punishments ... and we forgive the sinner ... and hate the abuse of them poor lil' ol' pronouns ...

We, us and them have no gender ...

Sure they can.

Just not with each other.

So why do lefties keep accusing Christians of being hateful when even biology says that it's wrong? It's not just the Bible that says two men or two women cannot make a baby but do they not believe in science either? If that's the case, then what do they go by with their claims that homosexuality is normal?

From a scientific perspective, homosexuality is considered a normal variation of human sexuality. Here are some reasons why:

• Biological basis: Research suggests that homosexuality has a biological basis, with studies pointing to genetic, hormonal, and neurological factors that contribute to an individual's sexual orientation. For example, studies have found that identical twins are more likely to share the same sexual orientation than fraternal twins, suggesting a possible genetic link.
• Prevalence in nature: Homosexuality is not unique to humans and has been observed in many animal species, including mammals, birds, and insects. This suggests that same-sex attraction is a natural part of the animal kingdom.
• Brain structure and function: Studies have found that the brains of gay men and lesbians differ from those of straight individuals in certain ways, such as in the structure and function of the hypothalamus and amygdala. These differences are not necessarily "abnormal" but rather a natural variation of human brain development.
• Evolutionary perspective: Some scientists argue that homosexuality may have evolved as a way to promote social bonding and cooperation within groups, rather than solely for reproductive purposes.
• Lack of evidence for "choice": There is no scientific evidence to support the idea that homosexuality is a "choice" or a result of environmental factors, such as upbringing or social conditioning.
• American Psychological Association (APA) stance: The APA has stated that "homosexuality is a normal and positive variation of human sexual orientation" and that "there is no empirical evidence to support the idea that homosexuality is a mental disorder."

Overall, the scientific consensus is that homosexuality is a normal and natural part of human diversity, and that it is not a disorder or a choice.

The idea that God hates LGBTQ+ people is a common misconception that is often based on a misinterpretation of certain biblical passages. Many Christian denominations and interpretations of the Bible have been used to justify discrimination and marginalization of LGBTQ+ individuals.

However, it's essential to note that:

1. The Bible is open to interpretation: Different Christian denominations and scholars have varying interpretations of the same biblical passages. Some interpretations are more inclusive and accepting of LGBTQ+ individuals, while others are more restrictive.
2. Context matters: Many biblical passages that are often cited as condemning homosexuality were written in a specific cultural and historical context that is different from our own. For example, the concept of "homosexuality" as we understand it today did not exist in ancient times.
3. Jesus' teachings emphasize love and acceptance: Jesus' teachings in the New Testament emphasize the importance of love, compassion, and acceptance. He often challenged the social norms and conventions of his time, and his message of love and inclusion is central to Christian theology.

Some examples of biblical passages that are often cited as condemning homosexuality include:

• Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13: These passages in the Old Testament prohibit male same-sex relationships, but they are part of a larger set of laws that also prohibit other behaviors, such as eating shellfish or wearing mixed fabrics.
• Romans 1:26-27: This passage in the New Testament describes same-sex relationships as "unnatural," but it is often interpreted as a critique of pagan Roman culture rather than a condemnation of LGBTQ+ individuals.
• 1 Corinthians 6:9-10: This passage lists "men who have sex with men" among those who will not inherit the kingdom of God, but it is often translated and interpreted in different ways.

On the other hand, many biblical passages emphasize the importance of love, acceptance, and inclusion, such as:

• Matthew 22:37-40: Jesus teaches that the greatest commandment is to love God and to love one's neighbor as oneself.
• Galatians 3:28: The apostle Paul writes that "there is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."
• 1 John 4:7-8: The apostle John writes that "love comes from God" and that "whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love."

Many Christians believe that God loves and accepts all people, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.

This is the part that prohibits the healing of lepers during the sabbath ...

yeah, try to use an adapter to connect two outlets and see how that works for ya.
