Not any more than I am a failure as a liar or a gossip or when I yell at my kids or am selfish or steal Netflix movies or whatever - oblique Mar 12, 08:43 13
- Everything you just listed is something you've chosen to do. People don't choose to be gay. - TWuG Mar 12, 08:45 12
  - People choose their actions, not their natural desires. I may desire to have lots of sex with lots of women - oblique Mar 12, 08:50 11
    - So, be gay, just don't have gay sex? Would gay sex be okay in a gay marriage? - TWuG Mar 12, 08:53 7
      - He flat out said the opposite of this under the word "DISCLAIMER" in all caps. fwiw. -- nm - TFox Mar 12, 08:54 6
        
        "It is simply one example of how our naturla inclinations don't run in line with God." I.E. being gay=failure to God. -- nm - TWuG Mar 12, 08:57 5

        Sure. I just don't know that I can accept the denouncement of relationships that are obviously based in love for another human being - oblique Mar 12, 08:59 1
        
        just trying to understand this - what relationship is being denounced? and gay relationships/marriages are based in love just like hetero ones. - Andei Mar 12, 09:13
        
        I'm set up to want to jam every chick on Chuck. If I didn't want to jam them, it would be easier not to sin, for sure. - TFox Mar 12, 08:59
        
        I have not made up my mind on the subject. I see the rationale for what you say, I simply don't know if I accept it for all the reasons you give as - oblique Mar 12, 08:58
