Well...that's a big problem right there.
I think that a homosexual/bisexual Christian is a hypocrisy in itself.
No offense meant...sorry if you took it as such.
(I have bi Christian friends, too)
The bible itself says,
"Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman;
that is detestable." Leviticus 18:22
Now the Greeks...they thought of homosexuality being 'all right'
outside of marriage.
I.e: A man and a man had a relationship.
The man got married to a woman.
He had to be straight after that.
Strange (as in, 'different') and hard to turn off, I know.
I feel that homosexuality is a choice.
I do not support or encourage it.
However, I will look up on it, read about it...
sometimes enjoy reading about it. (Gravitation is one)
I'm simply learning and am enjoying the
learning process. (I like learning new things...no matter what the subject.)
I will support homosexual and bisexual people.
I will NOT support thier lifestyle.
I WILL make an ATTEMPT to understand thier reasons
behind WHY they are the way they are.
I do not and will not accept that God made them that way.
I believe (again) that homosexuality is a CHOICE.
(And bisexuality).
Hope that helped!

Scarlet-Knight Crystal Chevrose Scarlet-Knight " I'm sorry. I have trouble sleeping, even while traveling. I'm always alert." he said quietly. " I hope I didn't trouble you any." He looked rather embarrassed, hiding the Aescwyn's sword beneath his cloak. He smiled softly and said, " I'll be fine. I'll watch tonight. Go and get some rest. They need you now. Me, I'll be fine."
She entered the tent. Glace couldn't help but think how similar she and him were.'I know there is a good chance you'll pick up on this Gabriel, so if it is all right with you, and even if it isn't, I concider you a brother.' Glace smiled as she lay down next to Elphie and Nana. It wasn't long before she drifted off to sleep.

Well, that's a bit of a problem. (no offense!)
Well, maybe you're a bisexual now, but you could attempt to... Fix it? Stop being attracted to men. I apologize if I come off a little too strongly, but it might be a good idea. x_x

I really don't believe in Bisexuality, I really think it's just a state of mind,lusting after both genders, but anyways you can have Bisexual christians yea, but not ones that stay in the sin happily, the point of being a christian, is to repent of ones sins, and repentance starts in the heart not in action....well action later, but yea so if you want to go to church and you want to stay Bi(not recommended) please don't Bi up the place.

Well, most of you probably know where I stand on this issue. I don't believe a gay or bi can get into heaven. Why? Because I don't believe there can be a gay or bi Chrstian. Better get ready for the hate letters. [/colr]

I believe Gay/bi's get get to heaven if they accept Christ as there saviour. God loves every sinner that comes to him,gays,murderers, adulterers etc...
Do I feel being gay is right...no.

domokun grrrr ok here are some good verses about homosexuality,
Romans 1:27
And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselfs that recompence of their error which is meet.
(If your involved with homosexuality, it's coming from your lust. not God.and is unseemly.)
Levitcus 18:22
Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: It is abomination.
(God also goes on to say that if a nation does this it will be defiled, and the land itself vomiteth out it's inhabatants.it also is an abomination and defiles yourself, and is compared to lieing with an animal.)
i think you can go to heaven if your bi or gay, but let me forwarn you though, if your gay your probably going to have an early death. and when you die God is going to have some things to say to you.

[/colr] A gay or Bi, is a sinner, salvation for sinners therefore if they repent they go to heaven, I think Someone has to practice homosexuality and Bisexuality to be excluded from heaven rather than just having thoughts and feelings.

Ok, I am in no way wanting to offend anyone. I dont believe there is such thing as BIsexual...People can say that, and even be convinced of it, but I don't believe it exists...it is all in ones head...
^ my opinion.

It's always bugged me that Atheists think that all Christians are intolerant of gay people. But the word "tolerant" is the problem. Tolerate means to respect. Atheists use the word to mean that the Christians hate the gays. This is totally untrue. I tolerate gays. I respect them. One of my friends is gay. I don't hate him. He's my friend. I just simply disagree with him.

Right. I myself have no gay friends. But, I do believe they can repent. I believe that even the thought are bad because it is lusting after another person of one's own sex. It's wrong to lust after someone of the opposite sex.

I agree with you there. That's how I feel, personally, about a lot of things.

This is where I disagree.
You can commit murder and lust in your heart.
I also feel that you can commit homosexuality and
bisexuality in the heart. It does not have to be physical.
That's just what I believe.
