[quote:Anonymous Coward 49531429:MV8yNTYwNTg4XzQ0NDk5NTI2XzgxMTg3QTNC] [quote:furPete'sSake:MV8yNTYwNTg4XzQ0NDk5MTc5XzZCRDkzQjMz] aw, the religion of Oprah and the enlightened masses--- the Universe is in charge[/quote] Oh, so you've already ruled out the likelihood that the Universe operates on principles that your limited human brain organ is incapable of fully comprehending? I wasn't aware that we humans have already figured out the inner working of the entire Universe and all dimensions of existence, despite the fact that we're not even advanced enough to travel beyond our solar system yet, let alone run our planet efficiently... Interesting. [quote:furPete'sSake]We have ministries to the mentally disabled, who are capable of accepting Christ as their savior, and do[/quote] And all the mentally disabled who cannot comprehend such instructions? What about all the mentally disabled around the world without acccess to any such 'ministries'? [quote:furPete'sSake]Before the bible was completely written, God was, and his great high priest was in Jerusalem, before Abraham[/quote] This means what exactly to all the peoples on the Earth who were not in or around Jerusalem or in contact with any of these biblical characters? [quote:furPete'sSake]God deals justly with everyone who never heard the Gospel, it's not a secret, your polemic is baseless [/quote] So what you're suggesting is that God's written 'rules' are conditional and not universally applicable to all humans.... Conditional to your life experiences/circumstances/situation/mental capacity/age of death/the time period on Earth/etc. So some rules for some people, other rules for others - and when people ask you what those 'other rules' are, you can't provide an answer because it's not written in a book for you to quote from. So you must chooose between either rebuking the questioner for even asking such a question, or circumventing the question by saying 'God knows' and that's not for us to know... Well I'd say if you were one of those individuals who the 'other rules' applied to, you might like to know, yes? I think you have a difficult time imagining the world through the eyes of others whose life circumstances were vastly different than yours - and doing so outside of the confines of your rigid beliefs... Religion is conditional to whatever time period it was created in - it didn't exist prior. The Universe is governed by laws/principles/order and has an amazingly vast design & structure. Man's belief systems keep changing over the course of time... [/quote]
Original Message
I'm a Christian and I believe homosexuality is a sin and that God is displeased with it but why is it that the majority of "Christians " believe that it's ok to divorce your spouse and remarry when Jesus himself forbids it ..
The only exception he gave is to the man ....he said if a woman commits fornication (sexual sin) against her husband then the man can remarry but he never addressed the woman
