When that happened, man perverted good things like sex. God is not the author of sin, man is.<br /><br />Is stealing morally acceptable? Why or why not? <br />Is pedophilia morally acceptable? Why or why not? It is stupid to say that because someone was born with kleptomania, that means God <i>wants</i> him to steal. It is moronic to say that because someone was born with sexual attraction to pre-pubescent children, that means God <i>wants</i> him to molest children. It is utterly silly to say that because someone was born with tendency towards alcoholism, that means God wants him to drink himself into oblivion. And finally, it is plain dumb to say that because someone was born with sexual attraction to someone of the same sex, that means God wants him to engage in perverted sexual acts with him.

While I hope that initiatives to turn back the onslaught against Marriage succeed, I too have been thinking about the Luke 18:8 question lately.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8560483615460834385.post-69674988009454881522012-09-04T15:52:01.494-04:002012-09-04T15:52:01.494-04:00To add to my previous comment, I also think we sti...To add to my previous comment, I also think we still love weddings because it gives the bride and groom (but especially the bride) the chance to be the center of attention for a day, and this resonates with many in our me-centered society.

(Gosh even after God spoke to Moses he practically had to kill him, just to get him to circumsize his sons.)<br />The Israelites, and sending out the disciples two by two. Beginning the church at the giant rock in caesaria phillipi, in a place that was 20 miles out of the way, seems to insinuate constant travel. There seems to be a pattern of dusting off the feet and moving elsewhere when people can't stick with or accept God's teaching. Peter left Jerusalem just in time. Catholicism was being closed in upon before evangelization took hold in the New World and the Holy Spirit breathed new life into the church at Trent. <br />Day dreaming and looking forward, maybe the next big conversion will take place after the chair of peter is driven from rome and surfaces somwhere else. perhaps africa, who knows..maybe some of the seeds from this country will be involved. But it seems that Gods people keep on the move. I pray Jesus comes, come Maranatha Come, but on the other hand doesn't seem it rationale for God to extend his love to as many souls as possible meaning continued generations of souls to share in his everlasting gift. it may be thousands, millions of years... before he comes. maybe the Church will resurface on some foreign planet. hows that for daydreaming. But I think willingless to evangelize has something to do with his eternal plan for human beings. when God can't find One Noah, Abraham, Moses, Peter, or John Paul II watch out!moviemannoreply@blogger.com
