Apperently it's a big hot topic right now, so I want to know how gamers feel about it?
Read Leviticus.
Ethical law is American law, not religious law.
Difference/inconsistency between how long term steady relationships models m/f are treated compared to m/m and f/f?
And... Just ouch, to the thought of that nozzle hump...
@Strop:
Hmmmmmmmm... I would guess there are differences, but I am not sure how obvious they are... If we're just talking long term relationships and not actual marriages...
But presumably the differences are that they have to deal with being called 'unnatural' and all that garbage which straight couples don't?
... I honestly just don't know.
I know, I know. I was thinking the same thing- "don't you get...friction burn?" How about getting kinky and...hm. No, actually I can't say the next part because it would be explicit and that's against policy >_<
Some laws in the old testament were mainly to protect the people of Israel. i.e. Pork was forbidden because back in the day, they didn't know how to properly prepare the meat in order to eat it. They would have gotten sick because of all the bacteria in pork. The same can go for oysters. I'm not sure, however, that God would still approve of homosexuality.
Oh hey, zerato.
Do you think we can keep the discussion open this time and not go into flaming?
How come you are so very sure about that?

But yet again it comes back to the bible, which seems to be the only consistent argument against homosexuality. But it still will only convince people who believe in your god, and it still won't even convince all of them (take the recent Episcopalian schism over the issue). There is simply no normative maxim that you could apply to Homosexuality that would make it immoral (unless you're a strict Kantian, which I don't recommend).
Once again, kris makes valid points.
cuz its in the bible1) Spam post...
Just because it is in the bible does not necessarily mean it is the truth. Why do you refuse to realize this?
This isn't about the Bible, although things do get quite Biblical in there a lot, this is about a person's choice and sexual preference. There's nothing bad about it, them being gay won't drag you down to Hell when they die (IF they go to Hell when they die).
1) Alright, but it was close to spam. Just too short.
2) I meant: Provide a quote to the text in the bible that you say is there and use as an argument. Sorry I didn't make that clear.
3) Because I agree with the Hindus.
Most Hindu sects do not seek converts because they believe that the goals of spiritual life can be attained through any religion, as long as it is practiced sincerely.Your God is not the only possible truth. I am not saying it is NOT the truth, I just ask you to consider that it is possible.
Dang, misread a word. What I don't get about it? It's that you are so convinced in your belief that you refuse to open up to others' opinions on the matter.
) I know that wasn't directed at me, but that is not true. Are you saying there's no morality in places where people does not believe in Jahve?
Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination" (Leviticus 18:22). "If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them" (Leviticus 20:13).
Your God is not the only possible truth.
