You, a man, dress pathetically in women's clothes and claim to be a Christian?
You have of course provided no ancient text, legitimate translation, or major incarnation of Christianity that places the Bible's many condemnations of all homosexual acts in question.
God will not be mocked:
Rom 1:26-27 "For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error."
1 Cor 6:9 "Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals"
1 Tim 1:9-10 "realizing the fact that (civil) law is not made for a righteous man, but for those who are lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers and immoral men and homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers"
Lev 18:22-23 "You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination."
Lev 20:13 "If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death."
Gen 19:5-8 "and they called to Lot and said to him,'Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us that we may have relations with them.' But Lot went out to them at the doorway, and shut the door behind him, and said,'Please, my brothers, do not act wickedly.'"

hello will,do you think by posting the same scriptures you will win converts,so far you have failed very badly,why not do what i do let your let so shine before men that they may see you good works.i too use to do the same thing you are doing,did it get me anywhere no it didn't,so i decided to let my Christian life be an example for others and then just maybe i can win converts that way,but beating them over the head will not win any converts in fact it only turns people away,am i compromising my faith by doing this i don't think so in fact jesus never had to preach at people in order to win their hearts we should follow his example.hope you take what i say to heart.GOD Bless.

BTW, I am Christian. I belong to a very progressive Catholic church. I enjoy participating in the music ministry, feeding the homeless, gardening and other church activities. My wife and partner is president of the women's guild. I find it sad to see so many Christians living in judgment of others based misinterpretation of scripture. I hope things will change eventually. This is why I give "Wil" such a hard time. I really hope he gets the help he needs someday.
Peace be with you.

That is a great thing that you have God in your life. After reading the things that you listed as your religious activities.........i know that God is smiling down on you for sure.

Keep up the good work girl.

MY APOLOGIES:

To anyone who had to sit back and watch the troll wars. Verbal ammunition was fired from all sides, and i regret any nonparticipants who had to have their thread interupted with such useless mounds of wasted time.

But that is the difference between trolls and myself, i do feel bad when a thread is held up with garbage, no matter what side it came from. However a troll could care less.

So hopefully we can get back to transgender issues, considering how this is a transgender forum.

TRANSGENDER PEOPLE ARE HERE TO STAY!!!!!

cant win them all can you.and you sure cant win people to CHRIST the way he was going about it,then again i don't think his purpose was so much to win people as it is to condemn them.im far from perfect and yes i slip and sin,which is why i don't feel it is my job to judge anyone gay or straight.even if i don't agree with it im still called by GOD not to judge people.

There is a troll from Illinois
Whose posts of God are only noise
He thinks he knows the word of God
But his beliefs are all a fraud

His brain is small and filled with rot
Relentless are his words unthought
Night and day he types away
Yet secretly he’s really gay

WillyBeFeckless knows it all
Thinks he's really on the ball
Unschooled in philosophic thought
His clueless words are good for naught

He speaks for God whom he denies
Yet tells the world a bunch of lies
His computer runs around the clock
Spewing forth his endless schlock

Yet to his senses he should come
If he would quench this clueless run
Addictiveness his only fate
Help for him may come too late

This poor soul is broadcasting rather than participating. I pity him. Maybe we do not agree on what the Bible means or even the exact nature of God and Jesus, but all those things are very personal and we need to respect one another. Quoting "clobber" passages is a very disrespectful and violent thing to do.

Sister let me tell you, I had one of those experiences where I turned to God out of desperation. God has been with me ever since. Please do not get me wrong though, I have many faults and sins to overcome everyday. I wish to be less judgmental but it is hard to do at times, especially when provoked by devils masquerading as people of God.

Peace be with you also, yes, living is non-judgment is often very difficult but essential to spiritual growth.

You think you are not a troll? You have stated homosexuality is a sin. That makes you a troll.
Only a real nut would believe homosexuality to be a sin of some kind.

Off the med again I see.

Anyone who calls homosexuality a sin is a troll. Turdy is a troll. Period.

I guess God is a troll too considering He said it first.

I have to assume you are taking that out of scripture. For me, I believe only that which is directly attributed to Jesus to be God's word. The word "homosexual" is a 19th century concept and a mistranslation of other things. So I don't believe God said any such thing.

What is homosexuality? When people of the same sex have sex with one another. While the word "homosexual" didnt exist, the meaning of that word was addressed in scripture.....several times and God said it was a sin. Like stealing, coveting, etc. It really doesnt matter what people "think", what matters is what God said and He said it was a sin. So, I guess that makes God a troll.

If anyone know girl, it's me. I know that it can be hard to resist temptation to lash out when a person attacks you, who claims to be Christ like. I find this funny, when Christ would never say the mean things that they do.

I believe that they use certian passages to feul their hatred for any thing different. In other words, they suffer from xenophobia.

Nice meeting you.
