The question of homosexual rights has been addressed many times, from Genesis to Leviticus to Romans.
So who said that homosexuality is wrong? The God that created the world, created you and me; the God that placed the stars in place; the God that requires punishment for sin. God is the judge. God said homosexuality is wrong. That is the final answer.

Of course he also said shellfish, shaving, Saturday employment, polyester blends and owning two cloaks is wrong, but I don't see you paying any attention to those rules.

Fixed with superior german adhesives.
"the God that requires punishment for sin"
He's a nasty bugger isn't he?
You are the weakest link. Goodbye.
God said homosexuality is wrong.
No, he didn't. A book that was written by man - and has no proof that it actually was divinely inspired in the first place - makes a few vague references that might be about homosexual sex (but are more likely about male prostitution and pagan fertility rituals). And the parts that do mention it are not attributed to the characters of God or Jesus. That is a HUGE leap from "God said homosexuality is wrong."
The God that created the world, created you and me
By stating this so definitively, aren't you "forcing your beliefs down my throat" in the same manner that you complain the gays are doing with their sexuality?
the God that requires punishment for sin
So the burning question becomes: How many gays have you, Harold, personally stoned to death today?
Who said cutting your hair, eating pork and lobster, women wearing jewelry, men not wearing hats, and not murdering your child should God command you to was wrong? The God that created the world, created you and me; the God that placed the stars in place; the God that requires punishment for sin. God is the judge. God said these things are wrong. That is the final answer.
He also apparently said that lending money with interest is wrong, so when the fuck are you and your braindead, morally bankrupt cronies going to start picketing banks and building societies?
No answer? Thought not. Bunch of fucking cowards.
You're hypocrites one and all and, IIRC, Jesus had more to say about YOU than he did about homosexuals. Try reading the Bible occasionally instead of showering in the bullcrap that spews from your pastor's mouth every sunday.
"God" said eating clams and wearing linen and wool at the same time are wrong, too. Likewise, Paul said almost everything is wrong, including gossiping, arguing, being envious and lacking in mercy. Why cherry-pick the Bible and try to blame God for your bigotry?
Gods wants == Your wants
oh, and then theres...
God == Invisible Magic Made-up Sky Daddy
We should start a math club.
"The question of homosexual rights has been addressed many times, from Genesis to Leviticus to Romans."
Wrong. From what I've heard about the Romans they were really into that.
the god who fucked everything up and let a bazillion extra religions of pure evil pop up.
oh wait sorry, omnipotent.
MADE a bazillion extra religions of pure evil.
the God that requires punishment for sin
This is the part I never got. Why would God, if he's really the Creator of All, give a shit whether people have sex with the same gender? Talk about your lack of priorities.
@Swede
"Was it like Alanis Morisette in Dogma?"
God would then be a cool dudette to hang around with. She wouldn't be egotistical enough to even need any of that 'worship' bullshit, nor any of the religious baggage that goes along with belief.
She'd be more the 'Be cool to each other, don't be a dick' and 'Commit acts of gratuitous kindness' type of deity. Albeit one that's 'slightly out there... like Pluto' (imagine an all-powerful version of Osaka in the anime "Azumanga Daioh"), but not the capricious, tyrannical testosteronal cunt the fundies worship.
At least Alanis Morisette would be the kind of deity I'd believe in. Hot, too.
It also states that beating your slave is acceptable, so long as he doesn't die within a day. This is where you draw your morality from?
And then we should address why I should adhere to your religion if I do not subscribe to it.
1) Prove there is a God.
2) Prove that the Bible is God's word.
3) Prove that God himself said that about homosexuality and it wasn't just some homophobic bigots who coincidentally has a god that agrees with everything they say!
4) Prove that the God you worship is worthy of worship. I've found this one to be the toughest of them all.
"The question of homosexual rights has been addressed many times, from Genesis to Leviticus to Romans."
Yes, and now we are addressing it in the real world.
"God said homosexuality is wrong. That is the final answer."
God's opinion means fuck all unless he presents himself and states it.
4 Step Perfect Proof for the Flying Spaghetti Monster
The Flying Spaghetti Monster said He proves Himself by observing pasta. Let's see if He is right. 1) Something can't come from that which does not exist, so pasta requires a cause. 2) Pasta can't always have existed because a) heat death would be far greater than it is, and b) mankind would have approximated into that alleged past eternity and not still be perfecting capellini all'amatriciana to the extent it still does along the exponential progression of conscience we are clearly on. What other option is there than the uncaused (uncreated) created?
Choose the one true faith (true reality) that comes out on top from the ones that are accessible: Christianity, Hinduism/Buddhism, Islam, Pastafarianism. Obviously Pastafarianism is the most personal because the Flying Spaghetti Monster reveals Himself in linguine. And only the Flying Spaghetti Monster is proven by the pirate proof and multiple resurrection appearances in various group settings, e.g.,
If you want to be eternally separated from the Flying Spaghetti Monster, it’s your choice to send yourself to be boiled in marinara. Unwittingly, however, you lead many people to the Flying Spaghetti Monster and strengthen the faith of Pastafarians and lead them to the stripper factory and the beer volcano because you are unable to disprove the perfect proof for the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
RAmen.
Troy,
Yep the Bible makes it quite clear that God makes some people specifically to be sent to hell.
Sorta like buying live mice as toys for the cat, except the cat eventually kills the mouse.
Edit:
The problem with Troy is that mental hospitals no longer contain their patients in Alberta. He gets sent to UofA for a holiday, gets his meds adjusted, they send him home. He quits taking his meds and ends up here. Eventually he'll go crazy enough that he'll end up back at UofA hospital again.
**sigh**
@ the old firm
Yep- and in Genesis, it says to "go forth, be FRUITFUL and multiply"...
So-
Be gay and recruit? Seems like that's what it says to me!
Yes, and God also gave us free will. So we have the right to chose weather or not we want to follow him, his rules, his word, or any of you cultists... Yeah, I know about you. You're a follower of the Yaun'ti God Sseth. Go worship your snake god you bastard. and I'll kiss boys if I want to. So fuck off with your "God said this is wrong" Because God gave us the right and ability to chose for ourselves.

Is that your final answer?
Ah, it's the wrong answer. You have just lost everything. Thank you for playing.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
