Burnishing Bigotry - 3rd edition

Lucy: Scaughdt, homosexuality is a lust-based condition, because it is based on sexual
preferences! God's natural order of sex is between a man and a woman!!! The sexually immoral
will never be condoned in God‘s world, and yet in your world everything is acceptable!
Scaughdt: Lucy, in a word: Nope … I'm afraid science has caught up to you on this
one, my Friend. Over 1500 species in God's earthly Kingdom have been shown to have naturally
occurring homosexual relationships, and scientists have now almost conclusively proven that for
the vast majority of homosexual humans their attraction to same-sex partners is not a choice at
all, but is rather a genetic inclination that surfaces in the very early, pre-sexual years of human
development (see the dozen+ studies I provided you on this topic, back near the beginning of this
conversation, found on pages 78-80 herein). And since God has therefore pretty clearly made
homosexuals gay, He cannot justly punish them for being what He made them to be … period!
And besides, if gays could choose to be gay as you say they can, why can't you choose to
be gay as well (as you have stated on many an occasion that you cannot)? You have vehemently
stated on more than one occasion herein that you were not bisexual at birth, so why did God
make gays bisexual and give them a temptation with which you & all other straight people were
not challenged? (see James 1:13 – ―No one, when tempted, should say, ‗I am being tempted by God‘;
for God cannot be tempted by evil and he himself tempts no one.‖) … Why has God given them the
ability to choose to lust after same-sex partners and not given you or I the same choice?
This simply makes no sense, my dear … Please explain it for us!
And besides that, the simple fact remains that, according to your Bible, BEING GAY –
IS – NOT – A – SIN! … And besides even that, even if it was a sin, Jesus Christ very clearly
tells you & yours to not hypocritically criticize the same, but rather to humble yourselves and
reach out to your gay brothers & sisters with acts of selfless Kindness (of which damning them to
Hell to arrogantly try and ―save their Souls‖ does not count) … Please, my dear Friend, listen again
to the very clear words of your own Lord & Savior:
―Do not judge others, so that you may not be judged … Why do you see the speck in your
neighbor‘s eye, but do not notice the log in your own? … You hypocrite! First take the log out of your
own eye, and then you will see clearly enough to remove the speck from your neighbor‘s … You
hypocrites! For you clean the outside of the cup [of others], but inside are full of greed and selfindulgence
… First clean the inside of your own cup, so that the outside may also then become truly
clean … Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like young children, you will never enter the
Kingdom of Heaven. Whoever becomes humble like this young child is the greatest in the Kingdom …
Let [she] who is without sin cast the first stone.‖
~ Jesus Christ (Matthew 7:1-2 + Matthew 23:25-26 + Matthew18:3-4 + John8:7)
