    Who am I to say otherwise ? As far as we know it could have been an act of "God" or perhaps it was not.

    Gen 1:1 is then can not be shown to be right or wrong.

    The second point is that even if God did have a hand in creation, we have no idea who this God was or if anything in the Bible gives an accurate description of the nature of this God so the point.

    What we do know is that the flood story in Genesis, as per the timeline in Genesis is wrong.
    We also know that the creation and flood story in Genesis is an adaptation from pre existing Sumerian/Babylonian/Assyrian and Near Eastern literature.

    So you close your mind to the whole modern science which describes the Big Bang beginning, then, and say Gen 1:1 is correct???

    What on earth are you talking about ? Why would you say I have closed my mind to modern science when I did not even mention science ?

    according to the bible yes

    but as for sex, do you think in the afterlife you have a need of gender organs or sexual feelings, those are physical manifestations, not spiritual

    Repentance is required.

    That's not the point. The point is God created male and female for the purpose of having offspring via sex. God nowhere intended or condoned same sex union as in marriage.

    You missed the point.....I didn't say it was a sin to enjoy sex. Saying the above is like saying, Well, if God did not want people to punch someone in the face He shouldn't have given us hands. It's not having pleasure in sex that is a sin, it is doing it outside of marriage between a man and a woman that is. In other words, God does not condone sex between two men or two women or a human being having sex with an animal. It is very clear where God stand on this issue to those who are in harmony with God.

    which is why we should all support same gender marriage, support monogamous relationships

    in support of same sex marriage

    http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1 Corinthians 7:8-9&version=NIV

    "
    8 Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I am.
    9 But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
    "

    it's better to marry then to burn with passion... .could not be any clearer

    What you did to my post by picking the parts that seem to support your what you believe show that you lack integrity. You not only cherry pick a part of my post to twist it, you also did the same thing with 1 Corinthians 7:8-9. The ONLY real and true marriage is one between a man and a woman....anything else is illegal and illegitimate in God's eyes. There's no scripture in the Bible(Old Testament or New Testament) that supports same sex marriages......it is condemned in both.

    Reality has shown us the Truth, here,... in Sociological Studies, about the rise an fall of Nations,... because they became promiscuous.

    Its NOT about "us,"... it is about what we teach the kids to do,... later.

    The issue is about avoiding Bastards.

    Bastards destroy civilization,... in general.
    Fatherless kids ARE bastards,...

    over population is a issue, birth control is something they did not have back then, something some still refuse to use

    gays and lesbians are less likely to over populate, in fact maybe they are natures sign that we are populating too much

    That's why the Bible warns about the acceptance of sin in society. The Bible and history proves that when a Nation becomes more and more immoral, it's decline and destruction is near and it's happening to the U.S as we speak. But those who are in bed and wrapped up with sin will not admit it, because they would be condemning themselves.


    It's sad that this person choose to dishonest, and right in front of everyone's eyes.

    There is no over population issue.....it's a lie. In every Country people tend to concentrate in the cities, while other parts of the Country is unpopulated.

    Most of the land mass is not being used or occupied.....the cities are over populated(people are conditioned and encouraged to live in the city), but outside of the cites it's not even close to being over populated and in most areas no one even live there.

    That can be debatable.

    Countries who have high subsistence agriculture have a larger rural population than urban population. This is more evident in developing countries. Bangladesh has about a 35% urban population, Cambodia only about 25%, Vietnam about 35%, Laos similar to Vietnam. Thailand about 50-50. African nations have a much higher rural poulation than urban population. One figure I heard some time ago is 70% of the world's popultion live in rural areas. I need to do some research on this. The more developed the country, the higher the urban population. Singapore has 100% urban population.

    Australia is the third most sparsely populated country but has about 90% of the population urbanised.

    It only appears the entire population is crammed into cities because of high density living.

    Name-calling never proves one's argument that they are right.

    Yeah,...
    That occurrence marked the return of the Renaissance.

    That was the Beast revived again, as the Christianity of the monks ended.
    From that moment forward, history reports,... that one society after next arose to dominate,... and then feminism destroyed ts culture and the end came.

    Right,...
    Texas has enough land to give the 6.66 billion people now on earth an acre of land each...

    Most of the people now living there,... outside of the cities,... are straight people.
    The social problems are inside the cities.
    This is where the Welfare people group their bastard kids,... who grow to become the criminal element.

    We all know that the cities are dangerous places, and they do not go there.
