Repent, America!
and likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another, men with men working unseemliness, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was due.

Romans 1:26-27:
The text reads (in the King James Version):

Romans 1:26-27: "For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 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 themselves that recompence [sic] of their error which was meet."

This passage is unique in that it is the only place in the Bible that refers to same-gender sexual behavior by women. Bennett Sims, the former Episcopal bishop of Atlanta, believes that these verses have done more to form Christians' negative opinion of homosexuality than any other single passage in the Bible. He writes: "For most of us who seriously honor Scripture these verses still stand as the capital New Testament text that unequivocally prohibits homosexual behavior. More prohibitively, this text has been taken to mean that even a same-sex inclination is reprehensible, so that a type of humanity known as 'homosexual' has steadily become the object of contempt and discrimination." 1

Other Christians interpret the passage differently. They note that the persons involved in the orgy were former Christians, and were heterosexual. They are condemned because they went against their nature -- their heterosexual orientation -- and engaged in same-gender sexual behavior. By the same reasoning, lesbians and gays who went against their fundamentali nature -- their homosexual orientation -- and engaged in opposite-gender sexual behavior would also be sinning.



So there.
 
Whenever, therefore, a lie has built unto itself a throne, let it be assailed without pity and without regret, for under the domination of an inconvenient falsehood, no one can prosper.

So, according to the Bible, it is immoral for a straight woman to have sex with a woman, but not for a lesbian woman to do the same? That doesn't make much sense at all. But then, neither does the rest of the Bible...

Don't you want to include the rest of the text ?

[SUP]28 [/SUP]And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. [SUP]29 [/SUP]They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, [SUP]30 [/SUP]slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, [SUP]31 [/SUP]foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. [SUP]32 [/SUP]Though they know God's righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.

It was a letter to the Romans, who practiced temple idolatry and prostitution, from Paul (who is rumored to have been a latent homosexual and active misogynist). So, right.

So, why are you "foolishly" commenting on something you don't follow? You don't have a horse in this race, so STFU, yes?

I was asking a simple question. Do you believe it is immoral for a straight woman to have sex with another woman?
 
At least Poet is good for a laugh.

So the list goes....

Men committed shameful acts with other men
filled with every kind of wickedness
against nature
evil
greed
depravity
full of envy
murder
strife
deceit
malice
gossips
slanderers
God-haters

and Poet spins the Bible's words to mean exactly the opposite of what it says.....
Homo's would be sinning to have sex with their opposite sex.......
freakin' amazing.....

What difference would it make whatever poet sides on your issue. The only issue is how YOU feel about it.

I am interested because Poet seems to stand by the information provided in the article, which implies that it is immoral for a straight person to engage in sexual activity with a person of the same sex. Doesn't seem very tolerant or inclusive to me.

Sooooo,,,,,based on many things I've seen from you then your own tactics would deny debate? Sometimes conversations are simply conversations and it still doesn't make any difference whether anyone considers sex in any form between consenting and lustful adults immoral or otherwise. It is, after all, an adult issue. Fool.
