Fun fact I just found out: Jesus said some people are are born gay, and it's not a choice.

Spread the love fellow junkers.

It has to do with a mistranslation about 'Eunuchs'. Jesus speaks about the three types of Eunuch, one being the Eunuch who chooses to be so for God, ie Priests and such, the Eunuch forced to be, ie those castrated, and the Eunuch born. Many think it has to do with men born without testicles, but it avtually has to do with the fact that in ancient hebrew, Eunuch was used to describe effeminate and those less 'masculine' than others, ie gays.

It only says that some are born eunuchs though. I just dont like that vagueness... Leaves it open to different interpretations.

I don't see how that's vague. Some people are born straight, some are born gay.

Im not arguing that. But it doesnt say clearly if its a reference to homosexuality. Its an interesting possibility, I'll give you that.

I suppose, but if you look at the fact that this is translated from hebrew, I think you have to look at their use of the word to interpret it.

I agree, we'd need to read Hebrew.

a **** load of stuff in the bible makes more sense when read with the hebrew wording in mind.

It was actually stated in court that In God we trust is more patriotic than religious.

That just shows how hypocritical our nation really is. One of the main principles it was founded on was religious freedom and separation of church and state.

That's what I said. It means that you have a right to practice any religion privately, but when it comes to political matters, Religion should be completely left out, because it leads to inequality for certain groups.

I'm sure back in the civil rights movement alot of people felt suffocated with the amount of coverage the issue got. It's what it takes to change something that so many people feel strongly about and the government controlling over it is extremely biased in one direction.

Really, I don't think it matters to disprove these arguments. The people that come up with stuff like "it's a choice" and "It will lead to bestiality" are scared and pulling stuff out of their asses.

That's true, but I still think it gives a wrong view of Christians and Catholics because the ones who pull **** out their ass are always the most vocal about it.

Yeah, it always seems that the worst of a group gets the most publicity. Take bronies for example.
