[QUOTE="Khaos, post: 69979, member: 2880"] Not trying to pick a fight or debate, nor attempting to pick apart Christianity, but my problems: - Modern Christians seem to forget their origins. I'm not saying, all are like this. There is good and bad to every religion. I've met some nice Jewish, and I've met some really nasty Jewish. But, it seems Christians tend to forget their origins. Christianity started out as a... barbaric religion. It crossed into different countries, swallowing up beliefs and cultures left and right. People were either forced to convert or were put to death. Christmas and Easter were originally pagan holidays. And I heard that Jesus Christ was actually born in September. - Taboo subjects. Isn't ironic and follow with me here. That homosexuality, is referenced in the old testament as an abomination. However, so is shaving, eating shellfish, being with a woman on her menstruation are also clearly referenced as abominations. I spoke to a pastor about this one time and he said, that nobody follows the old testament anymore. Really? So then why is homosexuality picked upon the most, if the old testament isn't followed? Isn't that a bit contradicting? "But its in the new testament too!" Not really. There are a few references that could be interpreted as it, but even if homosexuality is in the new testament, it doesn't say anything about it being a sin or abomination. Just says its a shameful act. Which is like sodomy, which is sexual practice that does not result in procreation. Though from what I have learned these days from Christians, giving homosexuality the label of sodomy, is clearly alright, but heterosexuals having anal, oral and hand jobs is clearly not sodomy. (it is, because they do not result in procreation) [/QUOTE]
