Someone want to explain "Social Justice" to me?

I hear you although I have to say many times sources and facts don't mean more than a hill of beans on the gb.Many people just want to argue for the sake of arguing.

You might not want me too, but I truly agree with this.
 
Would you attend the wedding of your gay family member you love greatly?
What if your gay son was getting married - would you be there for him?

Good questions....with no answer. Being there means supporting the union...which I could not do. I have not had to do that...and maybe I won't have to decide.
 
I would imagine (my own opinion here), that how one handles themselves would be important. Also, Jesus spent most of His time with those who perhaps needed to know about Him.

(not preaching here.....just saying that there is never a wrong place to share God).

So you're on Lit to prosaletize, not for for anything relating to sex? I hear what you're saying although it's a very strange way of looking at it to me. It sounds more like rationalization to me and I'm not trying to be critical.

Actually, there is an answer - either you stand by the statements you have made here, or you don't.
If you trully believed what you say, your immediate response should have been 'Under no circumstances would I take part in a ceremony I believe to be sinful and wrong.'
You haven't done that.

Well she's pond scum, can't expect her to have morals.

But in being here on a daily basis, you actively enable that which runs anathema to your personal convictions (due to your religion as you personally see it), not to mention those of being a conservative.

Case in point, both homosexuality and literary incest as fantasy for sexual stimulation. You don't have to believe in either, but they are major facets of this site and you are sideways supporting both by your traffic here even if you don't indulge in accessing those areas...well, as far as we know.

See, that's the beauty of liberalism at work, making inclusive those prurient freedoms of human nature that conservatives and God-Folk wouldn't bleed or stand up for but sure do love enjoying and having access to them. Now, nobody's saying you can't be here...but don't fool yourself about the dichotomy going on when you do.

Learn the meaning of argue, and learn the meaning of quarrel.

But..... she can be here so long as she doesn't participate in, agree with, or deliberately view those parts of this site.
Right?
Right???
;)
 
Because it's fucking retarded? If sex is an issue there are roughly 8,000-30,000 drunk sluts down town on any given night looking to get some cock.....convincing one of them my dick is the one they are looking for is not that huge of a deal. Unless she's a 500 pounder....then it would be a pretty big deal, how the fuck does that fit in a car???

Vaseline has more than one use.
 
My opinion comes from my faith.....my belief...my religion....whichever word you choose to use.

It is sin. It is no better or worse than any other sin which every single person commits....very much including myself.

My strong opposition comes from the fact that anything that has been held important in my faith is now under attack. It is seen as out-dated and not willing to change with the times. IN MY OPINION (that was for Rob..lol)....God does not create sin...so therefore He cannot create someone gay. In my opinion, it is a choice that someone makes...for whatever reason....and has become mainstream, even edgy.

People are people and everyone is created equal. God loves each of us the same..period. God hates sin....from murder to lying...it is all the same level of sin. I do not have any dislike for anyone (well, yes I do, but that is sin as well, and I am working on that myself....personal people in my life).

My opposition
comes from trying to make everything "equal". If gay people want to commit to each other...just pick a different name. Leave marriage what it has always been....man and woman.

"my faith"?

Your "faith"?

Tell me: what exactly did you do to create this "faith" of yours? Did you implant it in yourself? Do you, as a natural human being, actually think you have any ability at all to nurture that faith in you on your own?

Why - while professing to be so much a champion of the God of the Bible - do you also so casually blasphemy his very Word?

"my life"?

You claim Christ has saved you...

...but you still claim it is "my life"?

How can you be saved when you haven't truly given your old life to Christ...

...so that it can be nailed to the cross with him - the only way you may be born again as a new person?

Dear God, girl...

...you do understand that the Word you tend to pontificate so much portends the death of everything of this world, right? That there is no happily ever after ending for anything having to do with "my"?

That God does not care how much good you think you're doing, how much Bible you think you're passing on to anyone else, how much useless "opposition" your "opinion" feels like evoking...

...and that you must die, too, right?

You understand His reason for that is that you - and everything about you - is an abolition before his eyes, right?

And that the only reason he graces us with eternal relationship with him is because he does not see us, our lives...

...but only the life of his son, who was crucified so that we - our lives - may be crucified with his, and who sacrificed his innocent blood that the debts against us could be fully wiped away as if they never transpired in the first place?

That's the simple story of his new covenant with man...

...so why do you choose to blasphemously preach from your own pulpit so much?

Really just sharing ideas as others are here as well.

I have been here a few years....a place to come, for me, just to talk or post on a thread. I have made friends here (I know, hard to believe for those on the GB). I don't find the desire to participate in the sexual discussions...here or the pg. Just my preference.

It is ok if you are being critical or judging my reasons. I use to offer very little in opinion...and I am sure most wish I would not. My life is such that I choose not to play at being a follower of Christ any longer.....and I only share my opinions. I promise I will not be hunting anyone down nor badgering them into believing as I do.

These are just my opinions in words on a page......no power over anyone.
 
I have serious problems with someone like julybaby, who is happy to preach her version of what is sinful and wrong, but then cannot back it up.
Her idea of social justice only covers those who agree with her.

You haven't done that.

I haven't done that as one never truly knows what they will do until faced with it. I don't know what I would do. Just being very honest.

Seems like you practice the same process.

Bullshit. You pick and choose that which you think may be relevent to you personally.
You are not trully living 'in Christ', or you would absolutely be able to state your case.
If you did, you'd probably find that most here, while not agreeing with you, would at least respect your position.

And I have no problem with anyone who has a problem with me. I would defend anyone's right to believe what they want to believe. Each person's choice....just as mine and what I believe are to me.
