Jesus Fucking Christ: evangelical bigwig opposed gay marriage "because it takes the dirt and danger out of clandestine sex with rent-a-men"

how does this square with what's mentioned in the Bible (not taking into account different versions over time), out of interest (and ignorance on this matter)?

http://www.kospn.com/images/ltg.gif

It's square with most people not giving a shit about the 16,000 rules in Leviticus.

for christians, all of the 16,00 rules of levticus have been updated, with the two rules of christ:

37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

38This is the first and great commandment.

39And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

40On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
Matthew 37:40

now, you can give us metric tons of shit for not following those two, but dont expect us to keep kosher

i wonder if haggard's kids and santorum's kids can get together for grief counseling or something.

totally OTM. In fact, I thought I had Schadenfraude Fatigue going into the elections... turns out I was onlt getting warmed up!

And what about orange juice? "Do you know why God hates homosexuality?" Anita Bryant asked in the May issue of Miami Magazine. "Because the male homosexual eats another man's sperm. Sperm is the most concentrated form of blood. The homosexual is eating life."

that's funny, considering the eucharist is symbolic cannibalism.

But you also know that the official Church does not speak with one voice on this issue, to say nothing of parishoners. I have known more closeted gay and lesbian Episcopal priests than out ones. (I am including "out to everyone outside a 50mile radius of my Parish" types as closeted, because jeez, c'mon.)

Then, as if things could not get worse, there was the disgrace of Sheldon’s own friend and colleague, Rev. Ted Haggard, the Colorado mega-church leader and president of the National Association of Evangelicals, an even bigger pillar of Republican support on the Christian right. Sheldon disclosed that he and “a lot” of others knew about Haggard’s homosexuality “for awhile ... but we weren’t sure just how to deal with it.”

Months before a male prostitute publicly revealed Haggard’s secret relationship with him, and the reverend’s drug use as well, “Ted and I had a discussion,” explained Sheldon, who said Haggard gave him a telltale signal then: “He said homosexuality is genetic. I said, no it isn’t. But I just knew he was covering up. They need to say that.”

I still say if you think sexual orientation is a choice it's because you struggle with your attraction to people of the same sex.

but it's not symbolic man, its for rizzeal! transubstiation!

Yes, you are totally right.

The success rate of these therapies in actually changing clients' sexual orientation appears to have been between 0% and something less than 0.1%. The success rate at changing clients' sexual behavior is much greater. Some of these techniques can persuade homosexuals to be celibate, either through terror, guilt, or persuasion that God considers same-sex behavior to be an abomination. They can persuade bisexuals to confine their sexual activities to members of the opposite sex. They may even be able to train gays to successfully have sex with a woman, while fantasize about making love to another man. But therapies do not seem to be capable of changing one's feelings -- one's sexual orientation -- in the vast majority of people.

Fisting in a Christian relationship:

http://www.sexinchrist.com/fist.html

Surely a hoax site?

(1) To avoid the impropriety of male homosexuality, a heterosexual couple should not under any circumstances form a threesome with another man.
(2) Both women involved in the threesome must be willing to keep within traditional female roles (i.e., not taking on masculine appearance or behavior in or out of the bedroom) and recognize the male as the leader in the relationship.
(3) If the wife’s lesbian sex partner is unmarried, it may be permissible for the husband to have relations with her only with his wife’s consent.
(4) If the wife’s lesbian sex partner is unmarried, but the wife does not wish her to have relations with the other woman, the husband should respect this.
(5) If the wife’s lesbian sex partner is married, her husband must not have objections to the relationship.
(6) If the wife’s lesbian sex partner is married, the husband should refrain from having any sexual relations with her, and should make every effort to control his fantasies about her. He should concentrate his attention on his own wife.

not exactly a hoax, but...

Anal Sex in Accordance with God's Will

Are you saving yourself for your wedding night? The Devil wants you to fail, that’s why he puts stumbling blocks in your way. But God wants you to succeed, and that’s why he has given us an alternative to intercourse before marriage: anal sex. Through anal sex, you can satisfy your body’s needs, while you avoid the risk of unwanted pregnancy and still keep yourself pure for marriage.

malicious parody definitely

The Rev. Ted Haggard, who left the megachurch he founded after admitting to "sexual immorality," has asked supporters for financial assistance while he and his wife pursue their studies.

Studies? We might need to ask if this is of the "Pete Townshend School Of 'Study'" before we sign checks.
