I Support Gay Marriage [Gay Marriage]

The facts about gay marriage are these: Marriage was given to us by the God of the universe. It was meant to be between a man and a woman. People have freedom to do what they want to , but thinking that marriage is anything other than what God gave to man, that would be rebellion against God to think you can change the rules that God put in place. This is not hatred or bigotry or anything else to believe that it is anything other than the way God set it up. People will answer to God for the way they deal with this. Not anybody else. Not my opinion- it's God's Word.

This is assuming that the "God" of the Bible actually exists..

@walabby Its your call to take the chance that He does not exist. Read Romans 1. I dare you !

@lyle687276 Any religion that uses fear as a recruiting tool sucks big time. I am very comfortable with my philosophy....

@lyle687276 Paul ruined Christianity
lyle687276 · 70-79, M
" the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom" How did a Paul ruin it ? That's an interesting comment.

You can google that one. Enough people have discussed it.

Paul practically created Christianity as we know it. It almost could be called "Paulianity"... :)

"The message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing. ". Paul would be the first to tell you it's not about him, but Christ.

@walabby Have you ever approached him and asked him? try it. He likes that kind of rational behaviour

Approached who?
WalterF · 70-79, M
God. If there is to be any sense to "religion" - a thing that KILLS and always has done - then that can only be in the context of a personal relationship. We are persons, we need relationships. God is a creator person. ANd therefore approachble. The man who doesn't bother making the effort to approach this person will miss out, big time.

There is no sense to religion. It's a human made concept for establishing power and control over lesser humans...

@walabby I agree with you. As I said, I hate religion. But I'm very very interested in a divine person that I can know. I suggest we stop this brief debate here. My lifelong personal experience has proved to me that God exists and that the Judeo-Christian scriptures give a lot of information about him. I would prefer that you didn't deny my experience on my behalf, or that you didn't belittle it. My recommendation to you is, say to God, look here mate, many people say you exist. I don't believe that. But I'm open to persuasion. If you exist, show me. - That act on your part would be a serious proof of integrity. And you never know what it might bring forth. All the best to you! Nice to chat.

@walabby Look up "[b]Chrestianity[/b]"
It was a competing Religion for Jews at that time! [u]Even before Christ appeared!![/u]
Many Chrestian ideas are folded in Christian teachings. Dig around, it's interesting.

It's like the 2 Religious Entities melded together in some areas during that time and chose to link to Christ for Popularity's sake.
