Mike,

First I want to take a moment to thank you for your interest in this mater and taking the time to discuss it with me. I appreciate that you have an opinion and have kept the discussion civil. Kim won’t accept the three letter "S" word so I’m substituting the letter C in its place to form the word Cex. I hope you understand.

Let’s start with the word adultery in Mathew 5: 27. As you know our bible is a translation from the original scriptures that were written primarily in Hebrew and Greek. So the original word in Hebrew was likely "zanah." Which can be translated as fornication or adultery. I have included some dictionary meanings below for your reference because I think that you have an Americanized-English post 1960’s definition of adultery in mind when you say “There is nothing in Mathew 5: 27-31 regarding gays.”

The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition defines "fornication" simply as: "Cexual intercourse between partners who are not married to each other." 1

Adultery is one type of fornication...In Biblical usage, 'fornication' can mean any cexual congress outside monogamous marriage. It thus includes not only premarital cex, but also adultery, homocexual acts, incest, remarriage after un-Biblical divorce, and cexual acts with animals, all of which are explicitly forbidden in the law as given through Moses (Leviticus 20:10-21). Christ expanded the prohibition against adultery to include even cexual lusting (Matthew 5:28)." 4

I Have addressed the fact that we are all sinners so I won’t expound further on Homocexuals don’t do anything straights don’t do.

I can’t be specific in regard to the financial burden to our economy in terms of dollars. Although it does not take a degree in economics to understand there will be an additional burdon put on social security and insurance companies if there are suddenly millions of new dependents that will be entitled to benefits. I can assure you that it will amount to billions of additional dollars. Knowing that now tell me where that additional funding will come from. It all comes down to higher prices and that intern will have an effect on everything we purchase from water to homes.

There is not any definitive evidence that Homocexuality is genetic. Therefore it is a lifestyle choice just like alcoholism, drug addiction, pornography addiction, gambling and countless other choices we make that lead us to illicit life styles. The vast majority choose hetrocexual relations because it follows life’s design, which is natural. It is obvious that homocexuality is contradictory to nature. Again don’t take my word for it. Do some research and then be specific when you raise this argument in the future.

God Bless,
Marc
