It wasn't okay in the past to begin with And excuse me? "who are you to stop me?" i never said anything like that! I never said "YOU CAN'T BE GAYYYYY" I don't care if you are or not. Nor do I have a problems with gays. jeez woop... And no, changing the Bible is wrong. Sorry, I should have made that clear, the "you" was referring to anyone, not you as in yourself. Bad choice of words there. I'm just annoyed that some religion, which I do not belong to, nor does the country (read my signature as part of the constitution) is preventing me from legally immigrating to the USA because of the choice of my love and the events that unfold in my own privacy. Why should said religion affect my life when I'm not even a part of it? How are they preventing you from Legally immigrating?

Why should said religion affect my life when I'm not even a part of it? It's ok, woop. No hard feelings. "One nation under God" in the US pledge could have something to do with that. I found something on a site: "What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual? Just because someone is a homosexual does not mean that we cannot love him (or her) or pray for him (her). Homosexuality is a sin and like any other sin, it needs to be dealt with in the only way possible. It needs to be laid at the cross, repented of, and never done again. As a Christian, you should pray for the salvation of the homosexual the same as you would for any other person in sin. The homosexual is still made in the image of God -- even though he is in grave sin. Therefore, you should show him the same dignity as anyone else with whom you come in contact. However, this does not mean that you are to approve of their sin. Don't compromise your witness for a socially-acceptable opinion that is void of godliness." As for really wanting an answer though seek for it. When I didn't believe in God I asked for something to show me...and He did. If that isn't an option for you then why not wait or ignore it? Eventually it will probably be legalized for married. The world is changing. Other than that all I can say is in the Bible it was a sin back then and the law remains. Free-will lets people do what they want but will be judged. *shrug* it wasn't okay then and it's not now according to the Bible. (I will have to find the story about the homosexual city as a back up to show you that it wasn't okay. Only because of your first post 'didn't apply to saints' not for a different reason.)

Soddom and Gamora were destroyed for Homosexuality... No they weren't. Homosexuality was but one thing among so many other sins... They weren't destroyed for homosexuality alone.

Why should said religion affect my life when I'm not even a part of it? How are they preventing you from Legally immigrating? There are several ways to immigrate to the USA, none are accessible. - IMMIGRATION THROUGH RELATIONSHIP (only straight, takes about 6-20 years to fully legally immigrate) - IMMIGRATION FOR SKILLED LABOR AND PROFESSIONALS (must have very specific skills (BSc or better) and win a lottery, also pay thousands and thousands of legal fees as well as having an employer who will file a visa for you - another few thousands for the employer - in todays day and age, nearly impossible, also takes at least 5 years) - BUSINESSMEN AND ENTREPRENEUR (invest $1 million to a US company - easy, right?) - GOVERNMENT APPROVED DEFENSE SCIENTIST (basically the US govt granting you a citizenship in a day) There's the only 4 legal ways to immigrate. Show me one that's possible to do.

Why should said religion affect my life when I'm not even a part of it? It's ok, woop. No hard feelings. "One nation under God" in the US pledge could have something to do with that. "One nation under God" was added in 1954. It is in no way part of your constitution. " The Pledge has been modified four times since then, with the most recent change adding the words "under God" in 1954. " While the following quote IS part of your constitution: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." So, tell me, how is that not an oxymoron of its own constitution. Also, if you want to get technical, it never states WHICH God. The Government is not allowed to respect any religion, yet they do.

The Bible has tons of finger prints on it that aren't God. Is that a quote from somewhere or did you just come up with it yourself? Because I really like that All me. It's also the outline of just how Catholic I consider myself.

You say that they shall respect no religion and i agree that this is best but you fail to think about how most of the founders were christian. If you look at the capital half of the inscriptions have something to do with God. The money says "In God we Trust". I don't remember all the other inscriptions but i do remember that on the doors they have the Ten Commandments. This country was made to accept other religions but it was made as a christian nation.
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
I don't think this is a totally religious subject. I think it's wrong even without God in it.

Homosexuality was what put it over the top. Yes there were other bad things that went on there but the one that is put out in huge detail is Homosexuality.

Muslims say that radicals are the ones that bomb buildings and kill thousands. The people who support Homosexuality are not Catholic at all. They are Radical people who use their name as a catholic to cause trouble
