you call yourself christian and if we look at that we christians follow what jesus sayed- our god who doesn't deny that the old god who is real but he says that he was sent there to change the rules and if i remeber right i don't believe i ever heard jesus christ MY lord savour say that particular sentence... now his prophets said it but his prophets are also human and one of his prophets denied christ thrice before the rooster crowed. now i chose to think that god loves everyone because i am christian i am no jewish or hebrew or the one that believes in allah. i believe in loving everyone as to the fact that jesus represent the love for ALL of humanity

i know 4 people, bus users, who are living as a person of the other sex. i think of 2 of these 4 as "bus buddies", a person who if i see him or her on a bus, choose to sit with instead of a stranger. i am not predjudiced. the other 2 are not bus-enemies but i avoid the one bcoz he/she is very careless about health, looks, and smell. female hair, nails, and earrings, and whiskers and male clothes, and the person smells like smoke and no-shower. i avoid the other one bcoz i first met "her" as a him with unisex face, hair, nails, and clothes, and first name, so it is very unnerving to see the now-person knowing who and what he/she really is.

i don't believe churches should shoo away gay visitors, or d.q. them from joining the church, specificly for gay-ness, but mac is sharing the truth, u can read/google it. a gay person may have the smarts and personality to be a minister or sunday school teacher, but he or she would be a bad example, nobody's perfect but practice what you preach applies here most of all.

Some churches such as the Orthodox Church still practice and preach that. Many people view the Orthodox practices as old and outdated but the Church refuses to change it's teachings to make it politically correct...

The bible states quite clearly man shall not lay with man nor women lie with women. Who is man to be changing Gods rule? I always thought the Church (no matter what dedomination) was to lead by example. Seems the days of the false prophet are upon us.

That's one reason why I'm not a member. It's too bad the leaders can't agree on the basic principles of Christian service and faith.
