It's a simple command, and there are no asterisks leading to exceptions. There is no "small print".
I often quote 1 John 4:20 -- (ESV)
If anyone says, I love God, and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen.
Typical libertarian pipe dream bullshit. Cut social services and taxes, and watch how quickly those who can afford to give to charity will rush right out into the ghetto to find a homeless person to help out.
Expecting private citizens of filling in. via their local church or through personal contributions, at the level needed that government programs are currently feeding and housing the poor (including a whole BUNCH of vets) with, is a pipe dream that it would be impossible, even with today's weed to imagine. I would call it a right wing/libertarian pipe dream but even straight they know it's not going to happen and they just plain don't give a shit if poor people starve in the streets. They'd just step over the bodies and call the sanitation department to complain dead poor people are lying out side of the alley where they belong.
Sanitation department? Ha! More big government nanny state totalitarianism that we can do without. Don't worry, your neighbor will be happy to pick up the bodies and put them in his burn pit.
I have no argument with what you said . But there are those that can't "do it the traditional way" . For them alone it is important to mention the potential health problems .
We could have the person going down the street like during the Great Plagues pushing his cart down the street calling "Bring out your dead! Bring out your dead!"
Miscellaneous grumblings...
Christianity should be simple...
Christianity's development preceded the era of massive STD infections . Maybe including some strictures about "sodomy" has a utility to it ...
Do you think that STDs are mainly found among gay people? Really?
STDs are vastly more dangerous for unprotected anal sex ... whoever does it .
Some excellent points.
Do you have unprotected anal sex?
BTW, most STDs are not HIV/AIDS.
Yes. I'm not sure I agree with all of them, but they're worth thinking about.
I agree with most of them also. I have also saved all of them in my pictures folder, so thank you for posting them.
As I said above [I guess I need to repeat myself since all you can do is get personal ]
STDs are vastly more dangerous for unprotected anal sex ... whoever does it .
And most STDs can be contracted in the anus : Imagine herpes that way or the clap etc , etc , etc . BTW .
While simultaneously killing good innocent people with cancer and parkinson disease.
Do you believe that God gives people disease, Dean?
Have you really thought about that notion?
It leads to any number of dead ends.
Yes. Similarly:
"Love one another."
It's a simple command, and there are no asterisks leading to exceptions. There is no "small print".

Yup.
On both counts.
Hijacking Jesus.

Harsh!
... not necessarily false... but harsh!
Do you know of anything Jesus said concerning politics?
Does
really sound to you like something Jesus might have said?
It doesn't to me...
Petey is correct:
IDK?
Biology ?
For example?
Do you have any documentation for this declaration?
That would require a lot of research . But I would be happy to examine evidence to the contrary .
Is there some reason you feel the need to explore my personal details? If you don't like what I have to say feel free to ignore it .
LMAO! Good one!
The ancient Athenians , perhaps . Is that historic enough for ya ?
And what's the big deal about anal anyway. The traditional way feels a WHOLE LOT BETTER! Anal is incredibly over rated.

It would be nicer if you researched your own position. Plus it would be refreshing.

C'mon Petey! You can't just make stuff up.
... oh wait...
I guess you can make stuff up too ... by innuendo .
C'mon bf... There are less than 20 pictures. If there are some that support your position, it shouldn't be too hard to point them out.
Unless of course you have once again....
Well, you know...
Half of them don't sound like things Jesus would say.
They all sounded biblical to me...
Actually, Petey... When I make a declaration, I can back it up.
Challenge me whenever you like. And I will challenge you.
