Re: our thoughts must be discriminating.
Once more your position is idiotic.
Once more I decline to further participate with you.
It's pointless.

Re: right and wrong.
Let me point out yet another example of your inability to comprehend what is written.
Consistently, throughout this thread, I have repeated that other peoples sins are none of your business. I have repeated that what you think is a sin does not justify discrimination or law. I have pointed out that sin is between the individual and God. I have pointed out that behaviors can be sanctioned or prohibited by society.
Yet it appears that you have totally failed to comprehend, if you even read, what I wrote.
You then post:
So you discriminate against 'discrimination'? Then it's none of your business?
Do you discriminate against beastiality?
Do you discriminate against child porn?
What is the matter with you?
I do not discriminate against some imagined sin called discrimination. I don't even have a clue or care if discrimination is a sin. If it is, then that will be an issue between me and God.
The action discrimination though is another matter. That is MY business. As a Christian I must speak out against the action "discrimination against homosexuals."
I have asked you many times in this thread to address that issue. Instead of addressing that issue you, like all conmen, simply try to misdirect the readers attention so that they do not see you palm the pea, to change the topic.
You have not responded in ANY post in this thread to the issue of "Discrimination against homosexuals carried into the 21st century" except by saying you think homosexuality is a sin.
Unfortunately as has been pointed out to you many times, other peoples sins are none of your business. Sins are not something to be addressed by law, but only between the sinner and God.
Do you ever plan on addressing the topic?

Re: More off topic nonsense and attempt to palm the pea.
Are you are are you not going to present a case for discrimination against homosexuals?
I do not discriminate against homosexuals. I descriminate against homosexuality, just as I do with other behaviors that are unacceptable. I am an equal opportunity descriminator. You are the one who descriminates against some things and not others as Ravi brilliantly protrays in the article clip I provided before this witch hunt against me began.
You are wrong and I will not address any accusations from this point forward. You are not interseted in justice but in your own agenda.
I do hope there is some moderator who will put a stop to this madness, andfor once in their life defend reason and justice instead of the political expediancy of the day.

I think that discrinmination against homosexuals is sinful, wrong, selfrighteous, etc...
There are none among us who are sinless.
That does not mean that we must accept what is sinful and be forced to incorporate it into our society.
If I must accept homosexuality as a valid lifestyle, then what do I have the right not to accept?
Is that another topic? Or is it convienient for you to not consider that dimension, and stick instead to linear thinking on each strand of the whole picture, as you seperate truth from truth and lose the wholeness of it all?

Yes, that is what you do. What you have NOT done is show any reason for thinking homosexuality is unacceptable behavior other than YOUR belief that it is a sin.
Again, other peoples sins are none of your business. If you think homosexuality is a sin, do not practice homosexuality.
It really is as simple as that.
The rest of the post is simply more off topic nonsense.

So, as per the topic, you don't agree with discrimination against homosexuals in blood donations? After all, blood donation doesn't involve homosexuality, does it?

Very good jar...
Now be consistent... If you think discrimination is a sin, then mind your own business and don't do it.

It doesn't matter what you consider a valid lifestyle.
You have a right to determine your lifestyle.
You do NOT have the right to base laws on what you think is sinful.
Other peoples sins are NONE of your business.

No you're right of course... Aids has nothing to do with homosexuality. It's a different topic entirely.
I think the whole world shoul do everything in it's power to cater to the prefered lifestyle of (what? 2- 6% of the poplulation).
No matter the cost. No matter the inconvenience or danger. If blood supplies have to cost a fortune to process then that is the cost we must pay so as not to hurt the feelings of the most valued members of our society who are more equal than others.
We will change the world just for you...

How many times do I need to repeat it. I have no idea whether discrimination is a sin, and if it is a sin it is between me and GOD.
I don't address any of your supposed sins, I address your behavior, your actions, your posts.
I repeat:
Again, other peoples sins are none of your business. If you think homosexuality is a sin, do not practice homosexuality.

So, it doesn't matter if we think that child moesting is a valid lifestyle?
It's none of my business or yours?
Consistency jar...

Re: Is anyone with a shred of decency listening?
If you don't like the thread Rob, no one is forcing you to participate. You continually went off topic, preaching instead of discussing, fighting strawmen instead of dealing with the topic. Now you want someone to rescue you?
If you don't want to try anymore then QUIT POSTING.

    You don't have to accept any lifestyle as valid.
    I don't personally accept Fundamentalist Christianity as a valid lifestyle.
    However, I do not have the right to prevent anyone else from living as a Fundamentalist Christian if they so choose, as long as that lifestyle does not impose upon the rights of others.
    You believe, because of your religion, that you have the right to impose your lifestyle choices upon everyone else.
    That is morally wrong, rob.
