Well, the Bible also says your will go to hell for many different things and condemns other things that we think are weird things to condemn today, so are you really going to base your ideas of right and wrong on the Bible? Go for it if you want, but not everyone is Christian, so you must tolerate others and their lifestyles.

Food for thought (quoted from Mercedes Lackey's Magic's Pawn, p279, from The Last Herald Mage trilogy):

"There is in you a fear, a shame, placed there by your own doubts and the thoughts of one who knew no better. I tell you to think on this: the shay'a'chern pairing occurs in nature. How then, 'unnatural'? Usual, no; and not desirable for the species, else it would die out for lack of offspring. But not unnatural. The beasts of the fields are innocent as man can never be, who has the knowledge of good and evil and the choice between, and they do not cast out of their ranks the shay'a'chern. There was between you and your shay'kreth'ashke much love - only love. There is no shame in loving.

"This I think I have learned: where there is love, the form does not matter, and the gods are pleased. This I have observed: what occurs in nature, comes by the hand of nature, and if the gods did not approve, it would not be there. I give you these things as food for your heart and mind."

Shay'a'chern is a term to describe a homosexual person in the Tayledras.

Shay'kreth'ashke means "lifebonded" in Tayledras. This is a type of your "one-true-love" idea, only on a much deeper level. If one pair of the lifebonded dies, the other usually dies soon after from heartbreak.

ok well b4 i get started im just gonna say there r like 5 trillion discussions about this
but it isn't a choice! it's how they're born. would u choose to be ridiculed? would ny1? and the bible also says love your neighbor as yourself...and thatz the golden rule. isn't the golden rule called the GOLDEN rule because its the most important one?unless the one about how a man may not sleep with another man is, like, the platinum rule or something, which i really hope you don't think. also, i don't c why it is alwayz the Christians who say'the Bible says it's wrong!' but it's from what christians call the old testemant, which is what Jews use 2 (but we call it the Torah), so y aren't most Jews against homosexuality?
just wonderin Wink

Your right, I am going to have a comeback. First of all, God didn't make gays. It's a choice of lifestyle. The wrong choice anyway. I am not afraid of homosexuals, although I don't approve of their lifestyle. It bothers me to hear about two guys making-out, or having sex because it is a sin. It's in the Bible. Trust me it is. When other people hear about it, they may think it's okay. That's how it effects people who are easily influenced. Bye! Cool
