If I knew someone who was identifying as a Christian, I would continue to love them and care for them, but encourage them to listen to Matt Dillahunty on the Atheist Experience.

Answer at the end : be safe with this kind of relationship or be celibate. This means he wants others to decide on others sex life. Wrong and illegal.

My lord didnt have sex. Wrong.

Woman no body chooses to be gay it’s just what it is. Period

It’s hilarious how in today’s society, you’re BORN gay/bi/pansexual/whatever else. You can’t control it. However, you can CHANGE your gender to male if born female and vice versa. Every time someone says they’re “born” lesbian or gay, I have a feeling they would agree that you CAN change your gender.
This world is truly fallen stay close to God🙏🏼

What a close minded homophobic bigot. Get in the real world

Being attracted to the same sex isn’t something we can control. I wanted to be straight when I first realized because it would make my life so much easier, but now I’m happy with who I am. I called myself straight because that was the norm. I would force myself to have feelings for boys because I felt like if I didn’t, I wasn’t worth anything. But putting myself through that mental torture couldn’t erase the feelings I had for other girls in my class, the feeling of seeing Katy Perry for the first time and feeling my heart beat race, or just generally being attracted to women and not men. It wasn’t a choice I made, but I don’t regret being born this way one bit.

It's a shame that most people attack Christians and their belief without taking the time to understand it at all.
Christians believe sex outside of marriage is sin
Christians believe ma*turbation is sin
Christians believe that LOOKING with lust is sin
But we're now expected to make way and allow for homosexual intercourse and relationships in society in total violation of our beliefs and be told sit back and do nothing. It's a violation of God's law. Because you are attracted to something, doesn't make it RIGHT to act on it. God created woman for man, that we might bring life into the world. God tells us that women are saved in childbearing. Not the act of having sexual relations.
Christians now is the time to get educated on your beliefs because WERE UNDER ATTACK

People that use their religion as an excuse to be homophobic are some of the worst kind of people.

I feel fully satisfied with my man 👨🏻👨🏻 more than I ever did with a woman.
zach not my actual name
The man shouldn’t love man was man shouldn’t love boy which was originally about pedophilia not gay people until it was translated and they chose to mistranslate it so therefor Jesus and god does love gay people

If someone tries to „make“ me cis or straight I will never talk to them again.

As a gay women myself, I want to just say that all this would do, is push them away and hurt the relationship. This is very hurtful. You want to help them, accept them for who they are. It makes far more of a difference then you may think.

Accept them.

"Nor height nor depth nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God." Romans 8:39
God loves you so much and showed that through Christ. Nothing you could do could separate you from His love. You can always come back to Him. Hopefully this helped you today. God bless.

Frank where is you data, do you have a digree in mental health. You don’t choose how you feel. It is harder for gay, lesbians or bisexual people because we grow up in a straight world making us feel angry at our selfs for wanting a gay relationship, you can’t change it either. When you make claims the burden of proof is on you and like other Christians you give no proof just anecdotes.

"Ask any brainwashed person what they believe" as opposed to "Ask all of the people who grew up religious, tried to be straight, and realized they couldn't get the same satisfaction in a straight marriage".

This is why lgbt kids have more suicides btw. If you can’t accept your child for who they are and love them no matter what, you shouldn’t have children. Listen to this guy all you want but if your child leaves the church and you don’t be surprised.

A relationship isn’t just about SEX! 🤡
Sosolieschen _
you can‘t just „come out“ of being gay, that‘s not how this works. one’s sexual orientation is not a choice, no one chose to be gay or straight or when did you choose to be straight in your life? please stop saying an orientation is based on one’s beliefs, even when you are christian and gay, nothing can turn you straight.
It is against our nature to try and oppress one’s sexual feelings, in what way should it be justfied to have to lie to ourselves because others say so. It will only lead to the person hating themselve, as they won’t be able to live like you tell them to.

The like to dislike ratio on this is ridiculous, so many idiots who just can't accept people for who they are. Why would ANYONE want to choose to be gay in a world with people like this? It's not a choice, it's part of the person and if you can't see that then you need to think.

There is a difference between immoral actions and sin. Sin has nothing to do with morals; sins are actions that displease God. Having loving, healthy and compassionate relationships is not immoral; it has nothing to do with morality. Still, such a relationship with someone of the same sex is apparently sinful, as in God doesn't like it. To be blunt, I'm bisexual, and I tried to be an "ex-gay." That was a huge mistake. I eventually realized if God doesn't want me to follow my feelings (romantic attraction, NOT LUST), why would he bestow such feelings upon me in the first place?
Don't even try to say the "oh, it's a test of faith" argument. All that tells me is God enjoys creating groups of people who suffer emotional abuse and higher rates of suicide because he gets to sit back and watch them self-loath as they try to meet unrealistic expectations he placed on them.
If a god "loves you," but that love is defined by wanting you to make him happy even if it means succombing to emotional blackmail and denying yourself long-term happiness and good morals, then that god doesn't actually love you; he's just a narcissist. If that god takes things a step further by granting you the desire to upset him, he just enjoys watching people suffer.

Why so many LGBT. Instead of looking at the cause, we are being led to encourage lgbt. LGBt will have more issues socially and financially.
Monica Valladares
Nope.

So you're literally comparing being gay to being a spoiled kid who throws a tantrum smh

I'm actively bisexual and that comment about "satisfaction" is simply untrue.

I was fine with my daughter's relationship trying to help her interchange her until I quoted her a verse from the Bible and she looked at me and said Do you believe everything you read and I said if it's in the Bible yes and our relationship ended

As Christians we believe that the best a person can get is to spend eternity with God in Heaven. There are things that will keep you from that: we call them sins. Love wants the best for the other.

Fully accept them.

Gay people don't have to accept these opinions, and we don't have to accept family members' christian lifestyle. We don't have to adhere to these old superstitions any longer. Christianity: ripping families apart for two thousand years.

How many people do you know that have switched from a gay relationship to an heterosexual one? I do not know of any. I would like to know where you got your stats from.
where is my pudding
I think this is an horrible idea. His advice is based on the assumption that people in same sex relationships are less happy than people in traditional relationships and he supported this claim with the story of someone who was in a same sex relationship, stoppedit and felt better afterwards. Problems is that there is no proven causation with stopping the relationship and being more happy.
It could have been because his homosexual actions conflicted with his beliefs, as he stated he was clearly religious.
He also could have just been wrong about being homosexual.
Thing is you should not assume that homosexuality is inherently wrong and leads to misery, thus you don't have to "help" them.

I have brothers who used tp sell drugs. I loved them and was there for them even if I didn't agree with their lifestyle. The same thing is true for a family member who is gay. I don't bring up the fault if you don't. If you do, then I let you know I love you, even if I don't agree with all your choices. DON'T KEEP TRING TO GET THEM OUT IF THEY ARE AN ADULT, THEY CAN MAKE THEIR OWN DECISION.
