Recently, another blog here at NorCal Blogs posted an essay decrying homosexuality as a sin. Note I did not say homosexual behavior. No, these folks--who say they follow Christ--say that what you are is a sin. And, of course, they would know. They got it from the Bible, don't you know.
They offer up several Bible references, but not one from Christ. They try to say that Christ didn't mention rape, incest, or pedophilia either, and since these are wrong, being a homosexual is wrong.
I know, I know. Don't try to follow the logic, you will only hurt yourself.
Jesus did mention those other affronts to others though, when He told us to be nice to each other.
Jeez!!
Anyway, while these clowns--and thousands of other clowns across the country--are having hissy fits because some woman has her tongue on another woman's vagina, real sin gets ignored.
If you search the internet for blogs written in April about the "sin" of homosexuality, you will find thousands!
I wrote last time that charging interest on a loan was just as forbidden as a man laying with another man.
Yet a similar search for blogs on the "sin" of usury or interest reveals but a very small fraction of that number.
Hmmmmm.
How many lives were destroyed in the month of April because two men--or two women--slept together? What was the crime?
According to Bloomberg, 342,038 homes were foreclosed on in April.
Over half a million people displaced.
Since the beginning of this mess, tens of millions of jobs have been lost and scores of millions of people put into dire straits.
How many times in the recent past has a guy killed his entire family, and then himself because there was homosexuality in the world?
Excuse me?
You want me to believe WHAT is the sin?
There are some who think the way through the narrow gate is to be of a narrow mind.
I disagree.
I think the way through is to open up, look around for real problems and work to fix those.
We might start with the Federal Reserve.
If all of those "Christians" out there joined with us and contacted Congress, this will be the last downturn in American history.
Talk about a blessing!
