Yeah, I can imagine a huge mess if these different types of Christian-Catholics meet in an open forum or debate or just talk about the whole thing or whatever. And you're right, some of them read the Bible like all the things in it are facts, there are those who take things too literally, there are those who take things too figuratively, there are those who've read everything yet remain confused about what the writings are trying to mean, or what the reality (about it) is. Well, that's religion .-. I mean for example, if you're a Christian-Catholic like I am, you can't tell a Hindu that he/she's going to hell if he/she commits suicide, if there isn't even any such thing as hell in Hinduism (this is just an example, I have... no ideas about Hinduism and uhh, Hindu damnation/damnation in terms of Hinduism (though, I personally think that there's bound to be damnation everywhere lol)). I mean who knows what will happen, what's really true or whatever, I'm not even sure if the things I'm typing are what I'm really trying to mean, @.@ There are even those who claim to be strong believers yet they go against what they believe, which is just absurd rofl. I admit there are even times when I question and doubt things. But ah well, in the advent of such, my sister just keeps telling me that religion is religion and faith is faith. Blahblahblah. Then we'd end up in an argument and things end up all the same. The end. *.*

Ignorance is bliss and I choose to ignore the dumb hateful thig that people say and think nothing of them

I think it's those who talk figuratively that gets me confused.. @_@ But I'm not too concern that I don't understand them LOL..

Sad fact, but dont forget that plenty of us are different. i have 2 gay friends, and im still religious... Really, the problem isnt religion, but the people. they're sheep.

*headdesk@the rest of this thread*...

1. Christ preached unity, not seclusion.

2. Mary wasnt the one to proclaim Jesus as the son of God.

Quote:

* Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (Verse 3)
* Blessed are the meek: for they shall possess the land. (Verse 4)
* Blessed are they who mourn: for they shall be comforted. (Verse 5)
* Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after justice: for they shall have their fill. (Verse 6)
* Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. (Verse 7)
* Blessed are the clean of heart: for they shall see God. (Verse 8)
* Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. (Verse 9)
* Blessed are they that suffer persecution for justice' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (Verse 10)

I've met too many people like that.

But here's my opinion on such a sensitive topic:

I think being homosexual is just a different balance of hormones than people who are otherwise. You're not born that way (it's not genetic) and it's not much of a choice. Your hormone balance can rapidly change, especially during and after puberty.
