Opinion essay, Homosexuality and Christianity

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So I have ti write a few paragraphs on a problem in society, and I just wanted input from other people.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, I think that homosexuality is terrible. Heres a few reasons. Jesus didn't put guys down here to be guys. They both have penis's I mean that doesn't work... and are you saying you don't believe in Christianity? I'm confused on that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am both actually, I see no problem, but my teacher said to see what other people have to say

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so your homo and a Christian?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep. my bf thinks it is a bit weird but he understands the whole no sex 'till marriage thing, and marriage is in the heart not law

OpenStudy (anonymous):

God is in my heart, but my heart belongs to him, so I don't see a problem. but you know gottta make a good grade.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, I'm not gonna judge you for your choices. But here's my opinion, I don't agree with homo people. I grew up in a very religious family. But I don't look down on ya'll I just don't agree with a guy being with a guy and a girl being with a girl. And I am a Christian, and I believe what I believe and I choose to believe in Christianity more than anything else. Because those are Jesus's words right there in plain sight for you :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks, well said can I quote that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are you in connections academy?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no FLVE, my english class is set up like a newspaper, so this is an editorial type thing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

FLVS

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh Okay, well I'm glad I could help!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

homosexality in christianity has always been a conflict. i believe we should like who we want to like. God forgives all sins so if homesexuality is a sin thenhe should forgive us. its all based upon what you believe to be right and what you want

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry for the typos

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The only issue with that logic is that when you do ask for forgiveness you should make a conscious effort not to do that again.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but thanks for your input, i helps to shape my opinion.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's not exactly true. If you know your commiting a sin, you should turn your ways and stop doing what your doing. He will forgive you. But you are still commiting a sin and if you know your doing something wrong you should stop, there for if you don't turn from your ways then you are not very sorry for what you have done.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I look at it as by keeping a clear conscious and following Him, there is no problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But how do you keep a clear conscious when you know you commiting a sin? and you don't even try to change it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't think of it as a sin, I am not fornicating or adulterating or lying to myself

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so I do not see an issue

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks to those who gave their opinion

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your welcome :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I agree with @hannatanna she is right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't think there is a right or wrong answer, but I certainly like how she (I think she) wrote the response

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Personally I see no issue, but I have to prove my opinion so I just went around asking for input.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah I like how she spoke her mind that is good

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I hear u

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Everybody has there own ways

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dont agreee with homosexuality. who ever created man and women wanted for them to be happy and be able to reproduce. Which explains different body parts for both. Man was made to mate with another woman, not man, same goes for women to women

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well biologically, but humans were made sentient and given free will, everyone is available to have their opinions as long as they are thought out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What are your thoughts on the morality of homosexuality?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Truuu. What do you mean morality? lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you think homosexuality is morally right or wrong, and why?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I believe is wrong because based on what i was thought and most religions agree upon, humans have certain responsibilities in life and being homo is not part of them. Its hard to explain, but man and woman were created opposites in order to attract. Not join with the same specimen.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Also being homo has always been viewed in history as bad, like when homos were punished for their choices. Until, recently everyone think its cool to be gay.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Still it is only biology, love is love no matter who it is with. I did not know I was gay until I me the guy I am with now. and man and women were not created separate they were made to join as one, which is what marriage resembles according to religion. Also most of religion is only what man has included it is impure unless taken directly from the holy deity, which is one of the reasons Islamic culture has not changed very much because it was created by one man from divine interaction and is not considered complete unless you have read the holy book in it's original language. Also homosexuals have existed throughout history, but less prosecution has occurred recently. For example the holocaust did not only affect Jews, but also prosecuted homosexuals and any member of a nation that has bad ties with Germany.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is not that I don't look at your opinion and judge you for it, just the thought process is flawed.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I believe love can be found with the opposite sex, you just have to look for it. You asked for opinions so thats mine. Can i get a medal? lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sry I already gave mine to hannatanna

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its gucci

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So why don't you think love can be found with the same sex?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I mean everyone can choose who they are and who they love, political views, how they look at things. some things you can't change are gender, skin color, height, (in some cases) weight, and just general things what makes you say you can choose WHO you love but they MUST be of the opposite sex.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I just want to know your entire view point, I don't mean to make you rage if you are

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Because i beleive men that go for men are confused, they have some many things in common because they are both men. More like being bros and loving them. Same for women. Their minds have a connection like a brother one and they beleive is love. Not knowing that they trully are attracted to the opposite sex

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe you should just write what YOU feel and not what other people feel. and just because men like men it doesn't mean that they are confused.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But that's my opinion.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am not attracted sexually to my boyfriend, I just love him for who he is not what he is. He is the first person who I really like more than a friend and who likes me back. and ever since I met him I was no longer just some person in the halls, I was found and I had an idea of who I am. So I was confused and lost until I found him. and if you can love someone like a brother can you not love them as a sister too?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its not my work the guy asked for opinions so yeap

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That first sentence sounds bad doesn't it? what I mean by that is I did not like him because of how he looked, but because of who he is. I still see nothing you said that tells me why homosexuality is wrong.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

By reading and using the logic you provided, taking out gender would mean that there can be no intimate relations.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Plain and simple. its wrong because i said so

OpenStudy (anonymous):

koalamon why don't you write the whole essay and then it can be edited.. that way your opinions are respected and all that has to be fixed is grammatical stuff. in an opiniated essay nothing can go wrong (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

use that one a paper, your opinion is your opinion. Ben Franklin's aphorisms were not famous until they were recognized as wise. So may I ask again why do you think it is wrong . good point alva but I want to know how other people think of this subject.
