Thanks DagoodS and...Wow...<BR/>This is really something. Thanks DagoodS and churchdropout for writing this. My gay brother died of AIDS in '86, was one of the first to be diagnosed with the disease. I remember how much pressure was put on him to "repent" before he died so he'd go to heaven. Imagine someone that sick having to deal with that kind of pressure as well. Damn.<BR/><BR/>A little more on the biblical deconstruction of this. You are right DagoodS that one would have to be "delivered" from the desire or inclination. Paul makes a point of teaching that "it's better to be married than to burn."(that's some assessment of marriage, no?). There is obviously so much more to sex than orgasm, otherwise masturbation would suffice and we wouldn't need Pauls marriage solution. That being said, what does happen to the man or woman whos inclination is toward the same sex? They, if not delivered, are just supposed to "burn" i guess.paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04437206493901034134noreply@blogger.com
