At one time, a lot of folks on the European continent thought it perfectly fine to ostracise, disenfranchise and ultimately exterminate people who they found "lacking". Which is why morals should have a bit more basis than what is commonly popular at the moment. |

If I look at everything that has been done in the name of Christ in the last 2000 years it is obvious to me that the Christian values are also always relative to what people agree on at a particular point in time. They are not absolute either. To which event on the European continent are you refering? WW2? |

Think of it as a religious metaphor for human or material imperfection. |

1 Corinthians 6:9-10 (NIV): "Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters, nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God." Romans 1:24-32: 24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. 26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet. Of course the OT: Leviticus 18:22 (KJV): "Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind it is abomination." Genesis 13:13: "But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly." (Sodom is the root word of sodomy, and was a very homosexual town) Leviticus 20:13: "If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them." Is this what you were looking for, Klaus?

Do you think the people who wrote this were classed as 'caring conservatives' back then? They'd have fitted right in in modern day Iran, IMO. I'm glad God has changed so much in what to Him must seem like a really short period of time. |

John, surely you know the world was a different place a couple thousand BC. And yes, I did call you Shirley. |
