Gen 6:4

There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare [children] to them, the same [became] mighty men which [were] of old, men of renown.

Who said any man wasn't a child of god? Certainly not the Bible....it says homos are to be punished, not that they are Satan spawn...moron.

Didn't make the top 10 list though. Murder, as you quote, and possibly recommend, did!


ONE: 'You shall have no other gods before Me.'

TWO: 'You shall not make for yourself a carved image--any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.'

THREE: 'You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.'

FOUR: 'Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.'

FIVE: 'Honor your father and your mother.'

SIX: 'You shall not murder.'

SEVEN: 'You shall not commit adultery.'

EIGHT: 'You shall not steal.'

NINE: 'You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.'

TEN: 'You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's.'

Declined based on principles? Which principles are those? I'm still trying to figure out where in the Gospel Jesus said it was ok to despise someone because of the sexual orientation.

432,000 Sq ft? That's not a church, that's a mini-mall!


'Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable.'
(Leviticus 18:22)

'If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have
done what is detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will
be on their own heads.' (Leviticus 20:13)

Once again, it's not rocket science. Maybe you should try reading the Bible if you intend on questioning the actions of the church.


Behold I am the new covenant, old things are passed away.

You either follow the teaching of the Bible or falsly label yourself christian.....makes no difference to me, only furthers the notion that you're as smart as I presumed.

I suspect our feelings on christians are mutual....however, I didn't question their actions, I explained why they did what they did in this particular instance.

That makes you a self-proclaimed Christian, not a true Christians. Guess how many tyrants throughout time you share that distinction with?

Can I share their power too? Aren't all "Christians" self proclaimed? I don't seem to remember any incident of Christ directly declaring someone a "Christian".

Oh, don't get me wrong, I am very ignorant of my ways. It would be nice to be able to live as Christ did but I am a fallible, flawed, human being that refuses to judge other fallible, flawed, human beings based on their sexual preferences.
