Christians: Help me!

I seem to be in a bit of a dilema. One of my friends is bisexual (tis a girl), and I also got this dude who wants to fight me. If ya'll want more details, feel free to ask. I wanna convince the girl that being bisexual is wrong, but I also wanna find out what causes bisexuality. I also want to know what to do about the fight. Any help?

I'm an atheist, but I'll give you some tips on the fight: A lot of people argue for pacifism, but you need to ask yourself whether you think defense is justified or not. If so, wait for them to take the first swing then go all out, and do not hold back. Kicking him in the junk is fair game if he started the fight.

On the bisexual friend: Why do you think bisexuality is wrong if you don't even know what causes it?

Well, it all goes back to religion: it says in the Bible that, and I'm paraphrasing, sleeping with a man as one sleeps with a woman is detestable. Now, if that goes for women too, probably. I was talking to her about that, and she said "God probably likes lesbo action...shit, I'm going to hell for saying that." She's Catholic, but I, personally, don't like the Catholic Church (too much listening to one man and not enough personal decision making) which is why Protestant is for me . Anyway, I personally feel that bisexuality and homosexuality are caused as an unconscious rebelion against God, although I could be wrong Anyway, any help is appreciated.

A good analysis of the Bible and its condemnation of homosexuality

why are you letting your opinions be fed to you by a book written by corrupt popes and priests? what are your opinions on bisexuality, yours, not the bibles?

theBishop · #6 2004-04-20, 04:34

Saliva, what popes and prists wrote the bible? I'd like to know.

As for Discipulus, it's none of your business judging someone's lifestyle who isn't in your church family. Let God judge, it's not your job. That being said, you should study homosexuality and bisexuality, although i don't think anyone knows for sure what causes them. If you want to talk to people about these things, go for it, but if you can't do that without keeping a loving additude, you should walk away. Are you without sin to judge and all that...

heh @ the stoning. TheBishop-- I'm extremely good friends with her and I care a lot about her. That's why I care what happens to her.

ok i hang out with priests and people becoming priests and none of htem have really given me a good explanation why someone cant be gay. im not(gay) its just one of the few subjects that they cant convince me on. so i just wanna know why you think homosexuality or bisexuality is wrong? does it really matter?

If homos went against god, god would never allow them to exist, there is nothing you can do in this world that is against god. There is that which is you and that which is not. I personally am hetero, I love the female body, that's my preference, does that make me? NO, it is merely a refection of a state of being I choose for myself. Homos are as far as I've seen, incredibly shallow people. They're like the shallow trophy wives that most rich people have, only concerned with appearance, often obessed with their own appearance to the point that they only want their own appearance for any sort of gratification.
