There needs to be a limit. Fortunately pedophilia (sic) is indisputably wrong (although that could one day be challenged), but how far do you let people push the line? Should animal sex be okay? If enough people started to push to "marry" their pets, should it be okay?

By the way, a news flash - Austria's Supreme Court just ruled that a chimpanzee cannot be legally declared a person: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070927/ap_on_fe_st/chimp_challenge;_ylt=Arqop1C0zSm8uW.RNYrKA2Ks0NUE

Now, if only the chimp, Mr. Matthew Hisal Pan, could find a doctor who does species-change operations.

When you take a look at the photo (the ad) you cannot help but see why homosexuality is a sin. It all boils down to sex. They want it with people of the same gender like pedophiles want it with children. Both are disgusting and wrong. It's not about homophobia, it's about knowing in your heart, your conscience, and even in your mind that having sex with a person of the same gender is wrong. Morally, socially, biologically, etc. Just because there's a hole, doesn't mean you something is meant to go in it. Some roads are designated as one-way streets for a reason. Get my drift?

Jesus Christ (although the best proof) is only one of the many pieces of evidence God gives to us. All of His creation is proof (Romans). If there is a creation, there had to be a Creator. Creation implies Creator like Son implies Father (at one point in time) - to put it simply.

I don't want to be a party-pooper ... and I am really happy for the two of them ... but does anyone else find it a bit unsettling that they were friends when Bethany was 15 and Shane was about 27? Or that they started dating after she turned 18 and he was about 30?

Call me crazy, but I think Christian Post has a good point. Although for Glatze joining the Mormon church is BY FAR worse than returning to homosexuality, for the U.S. as whole, his returning to homosexuality may be worse because of the large numbers of people that could influence. His return to homosexuality would be cited by pro-gay individuals as evidence that people are born homosexual and that nothing can be done about it. And the name of God could be blasphemed because people could argue that (1) God had created him as gay and/or (2) God couldn't change him. But if he stays straight but ends up joining the Mormon ''church,'' I don't believe that homosexuals who want to change would end up seeing the Mormon ''church'' as being the better/best place to change, as opposed to evangelical churches. I want to hear what everyone thinks about this. Or am I just crazy? (and don't misunderstand me; I am not homophobic; I love homosexuals as I do any other person, but I do affirm that homosexuality is a sin and feel the manipulation of Scriptures to justify it reflects a more serious problem within a number of churches - in particular the Episcopal Church and the UCC)
