how is the difference made?

is there a label in the original bible that says "hey, all of this stuff is metaphor, everything else is real"?

You're being choosy. I bet you like to ignore Leviticus saying that wearing clothes made from more than one type of fiber is an abomination, or that eating shellfish is an abomination.

wait, where do you draw the line between whats literal and whats metaphorical?

is all the bible metaphor or is it all literal?

did jesus really 'rise again' or was that just metaphor?
No Jesus rising is true, it is real. The line that you said was a metaphor.

hahaha, go prove it...and dont say "because its wrote in the bibble" no, the bibble is a book, and not everything written in books are true...

I revived the religious debate thread, go vent there now. If you keep on arguing in here, i'll just ask the moderator to deal with you as there is no reason to ask you nicely.

Where are you going with this? Last time I checked, no one was saying that if you didn't believe in Jesus, you were instantly in Hell. There's a difference between "going to" and "in" after all.

laxspartan007 wrote:and the bible use to say that being black was a sin, it had multiple sins revolving around balck people and things such as that...

Again, you are mistaken. The Book of Mormon used to proclaim that black people were the result of souls that sided with neither God nor Satan in some titanic fight, and used to forbid black people from joining their church.

You're getting behind, lax. I've three posts in this thread (now four), and all but the first one contain counter points to your ridiculous assertions. Best get to work responding. ;)

That's much better, and twice as logical as most of what you've said, so far. Very Happy

being "less logical" is better for me...more people are annoyed...

Well, we turned Lax into a troll. Fun fun.

Anyway, on topic? You know what I've said my piece. I'm just trying to restore order here.

Sigh...
Here we go... Again.

First of all, the WHO declassified Homosexuality as a mental disorder due to political pressure, back in 1992. Other organizations are up in arms as to it's classification.

Personally, I believe that it is a mental disorder, and not a choice. Those who say it is a choice and experience it as a choice are 'Bisexual'.

Now for my classifications:
Gay: A Homosexual who practices, whether in the closet or in the public.
Homosexual: A person who is homosexual, but does not act upon those urges. They do exist.

is homo-sexual weddings allowed in your state...if not than thats why there paradeing around...they want freedom and all rights

They have freedom. They have rights.
They can vote. Bashing in a gay's head because he is gay is a hate crime. They have protection from being fired because they are gay. You cannot discriminate in hiring them because they are gay.

What they 'want' is to be FORCED to be equal, with social institutions bending over backwards to accommodate them. This is roughly equivalent to KKK clubsters wanting an official Bar Mitza for one of their members. Not that persecution has been going on, but the social institutions are completely incompatible.

laxspartan007 wrote:...thats how blacks got there rights and thats how women got there's...

The blacks and the women sufferagists... neither paraded in "We're here and we're Queer" parades wearing only condoms and garter belts.
Again, Homosexuals DO have rights, the same ones as normal American citizens. What they're campaigning for is for social institutions to be forced to cater to them.

In any case, marching and demonstrating is how the Brownshirts brought Der Fuhrer to power, and how the current regime in Iran came to power. It isn't the METHODS they use, but the goal, that makes their cause noble.

laxspartan007 wrote:its people like you that prolong thoses parades that they will edventally win...

That's like blaming the parents for mistreating a child, when he's kicking and screaming in the Walmart aisles because they won't get him that Supersoaker hunk of plastic.

The spoiler below deals with the short religion debate. I typed it up before Gauz asked us not to bring it in, and I couldn't bring myself to deal with it.

Spoiler:

In any case, in reply to Gauz's post, I believe that homosexuality and bisexuality is a mental disease, similar to schizophrenia. Some sorts of visual hallucinations cause the victim to see colors in numbers 0123, which is rather harmless, but can still be treated.

accually, in some places they cant get marryed...

Your standpoint on homosexuality.
