Christians how do you react to people who give in to their homosexual desires and choose to be openly gay?

Christians would argue that having straight lust is also bad. Here's my philosophy on the nature of sin; "If you're going to sin, sin boldly" - adaptation of a quote from Martin Luther. Basically, if you are going to sin, don't try to justify the act with a whole lot of mumbo-jumbo; don't try to justify yourself. If you believe something is right, and everyone tells you it's wrong; do it, and make no apologies for it. It's better to be an honest sinner than a dishonest sinner, because honesty comes from grace, and grace brings you to salvation. So, even when you declare yourself as a sinner in the eyes of Christianity, you're just doing what you know is right, and, thus, are not culpable for it if it is, indeed, wrong. I have more respect for a person who knows what they don't believe than a person who doesn't know what they do believe.

A good writer researches the subject before putting pen to paper or today finger to keyboard. A person does not open a magazine and see a photo and then becomes gay. If that was so then the sexuality would have a predictable trigger. If it had a predictable trigger the homophobes would be onto that fast. Your sexuality is as much a part of you as is the colour of your hair or the size of your feet. You know its what it is all along. We don't just one day open a magazine and say. I have blond hair because the guy in that magazine is blond and he turns me on. You say you brought your first magazine but put it on the counter face down. To that I have to ask, how did the sales person know how much to charge and if the answer to that is they recognised the back of the magazine, I have to ask, what then was the point of the exercise if they knew what it was anyway. You also say you only went to female cashiers. Where I live you go to who ever is there to serve you, there is not a lot of options. You did all this to avoid acknowledging your sexuality and yet you then say you deliberately asked the staff for help to make it clear to them. Yet on the next hand you say you brought from a guy who you assume is gay. You really need to stop and consider the things your going to write and make sure they work together. But I guess when your in the closet its hard to know whats happening in the real world, on the other side of those doors.

As a Christian I do not judge others because the bible tells we are not to judge. So any Christian judging needs to open up their bible again. Luke 6:37 "Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven Luke 6:41 "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? John 8:7 When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her." Romans 2:1 You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things. James 4:11 Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against his brother or judges him speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it. Throughout life people will make you mad, disrespect you and treat you bad. Let ...God deal with the things they do, cause hate in your heart will consume you too. -Will Smith

I will never come out. I've decided it's better to just stay in the closet. I know that I would be judged by others and I am scared of where my soul would end up. My family would NEVER except the fact that I am more attracted to women. I do not want to put my children through that. If worse comes to worse I'll just stay alone. I do not judge others but myself personally I feel like if I choose to live as a homosexual I would not go to heaven. Therefore I am choosing to ignore the feelings , dreams and thoughts.

Ill admit i think it is wrong and do not agree with it, since it is a sin. But i will never hate or Turn my back on someone for sinning, because i sin as well. I am as condemned as someone who is gay, so for me to think i am better than you would make me a terrible person. But Jesus did die for our sins, and we can all earn forgiveness If Gay people are condemned to hell just for being gay, than Jesus died in vein.
