I am really getting sick and tired of all the hatred and bigotry that continually spews forth from the homosexual community. In an age when the proponents of the gay agenda continually cry out for tolerance and acceptance for their different beliefs, it is clear that they forgot to mention that they also get to live by different rules. Kirk Cameron gets invited onto a TV show to talk about his latest movie. He then gets sideswiped because Piers Morgan (the host) is fixated with everybody's view on homosexuality (exactly how many opinions does Piers actually need?), and therefore asks Kirks "opinion". What would you expect if YOU asked for somebody else's opinion? An opinion perhaps?
Well, in the narrow minded and highly bigoted world of the gay community, asking for an opinion is more about a heterophobic police investigation than a request for an opinion. When Piers Morgan is asking for an opinion about homosexuality, Kirk Cameron needs to realize that this question is actually the supreme litmus test for all matters of human decency. But Kirk didn't get it. For some inexplicable reason he thought he should give an opinion since he was asked for one. Not only that, Kirk thought it would be best to give an informed opinion based upon biblical truth and historical evidence. But the problem with Kirk's opinion is that it is not the opinion sanctioned by the gay guardians of public decency. And I am still trying to figure out Piers Morgan's mathematical equation:
Asking Kirk Cameron for an opinion + Kirk Cameron giving his opinion = Kirk Cameron hates all homosexuals
Did anyone just hear what Piers Morgan said? Rewind that video to the 2:00 mark and listen again.
I have total respect for Kirk Cameron's right to have any beliefs that he wants. I've got no problem with that. I just don't think you can sit there with a straight face and say "I am a Christian, God fearing, all round good person but, by the way, I hate these people who were born the way they were". (Piers Morgan)
Piers, if you had respect for Kirk Cameron then you would not slander him by putting your own words in his mouth. You are a pathetic excuse for a man and you need to apologize to Kirk for all your hate speech and imposing your values on him.
What sets homosexuality apart from most other biblical sins is not that it's the sin God hates the most. It is set apart because the homosexual community is the only group that is hell bent on dealing with their pet sin by redefining it as righteousness. You don't hear liars saying that lying is good. You don't hear adulterers saying that they are doing the right thing by their wife. But you do hear homosexuals on a regular basis trying to deal with their sin by pretending that it's not a sin. And this is why Kirk is the only person here acting with any real concern and love for the homosexual community by telling them the truth.
Though they know God's decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them. (Romans 1:32)
Thank you Kirk for standing up for minorities like myself who live under the continual oppression of homosexual bigotry. Thank you Kirk for loving the truth more than your popularity. Thank you Kirk for loving your homosexual friends enough to tell them the truth. Thank you Kirk for caring more about sinners in need of a Savior than bowing to the god of political correctness. Thank you Kirk for all the times you have shared with homosexuals about the forgiveness found in Jesus Christ. I award you a double platinum man-card!

Take your point regarding recasting this behavior as righteous, but buggery is actually no worse than theft or fraud actually. Most who practice other sins will also attempt also to justify their behavior - either way they all cause a man to forever die (no matter how small a sin), unless they are foreknown, predestined, called, & justified in Christ Jesus. What really matters is whether a sinful man on the hearing of the Gospel subsequently repents and believes daily for the Righteousness of God by the faith of Jesus Christ such that he forthwith becomes dead to sin. If they wont then God has left them to their own devices to defile and destroy each other. I will not deny them this choice, nor will God himself, moreover I am not commissioned of God to drive them out of the city either. In the most part, I actually feel sorry for homosexuals as most of them are the victim of child rape or sexual abuse of some form. For this they need understanding & acceptance as human beings, and the hearing of the real Gospel - not a self righteous message of conformity to the religious rule of law which they know they cannot follow in their own flesh.

davo, it is a big generalisation to state that most homosexuals were abused as children. My husband was sexually molested as a child by a neighbour and I recently discussed this generalisation with him. He said that he disagrees and believes men would be more likely to hate and steer clear from male relationships than find men attractive. My husband made it abundantly clear that he has never found men attractive nor does he think homosexuality to be a righteous lifestyle. Where do you get your facts from to back up your statement? Keen to hear.
Hi Dav0 and Liz
Been reading your comments re homosexuals and prior abuse suffered. I can't agree Dav0 that most have in fact been the victim of some sort of abuse and like Liz, would be interested to know where you got that information from, as I could very well be wrong, and am happy to be. I have a background of working with sex offenders in a treatment capacity, and it is a popular misconception that many of these offenders have been abused themselves, as children. However, whilst there may be some/many who have experienced abuse of some kind in their life, this is not a risk factor for them to become an abuser, based on the fact that there are many others who have also been abused as children and do not go on to be offenders. In addition, females experience abuse at comparable rates to males, yet sex offences seem to be a predominantly male offence (for the most part. I would think this is the same for those who claim to be gay.
This next part of my response is in general to the topic and not directed at you, Dav0 and Liz. As for homosexuality, I struggle to reconcile this debate in my own mind. Whilst the bible is very clear on its position regarding homosexuality, are we not called to love anyway? Is it not God's kindness that leads us to repentance? I think being wise as a serpent, gentle as a dove is possibly a good approach, as this is something, unfortunately, that "the church" fails at....dismally!! Is it any wonder that people in this group feel condemned and hated, it's ok to speak the truth to others, but why do we feel the need to deliver it in a manner that causes destruction to the person and subsequent dissention between groups. At the end of the day, these people are still people in desperate need of Jesus and his saving grace. So, how do our actions and words towards homosexuals impact their lives? We can see it, they hate us because we have taught them how we want to be treated. Yes, it is possible to love the sinner, but hate the sin, but we must be so careful as to how we are projecting that hate, because as it stands now it seems to be directly at those who identify as homosexual and not the lifestyle they choose.... fine line!
I have a number of gay friends, one of whom I knew as a child and upon reflection I can honestly say that, for a number of reasons (which I'm not going to post here), perhaps he was born that way. What is it that attracts us to another person? And what/who is to say that perhaps in some people this has developed in a different way in their mind/body? How would you feel if someone said to you that heterosexuality is wrong and you must renounce that lifestyle and become gay? Or at least, never life that life again.... Take a moment out and really have a think about it, how would you honestly feel/react?? Sounds outrageous and totally unreasonable yeah? Well that's the way us Christians approach homosexuals.... That's God's job to bring them to that point, in his time and in his way. Only he can heal the broken pieces that will bring about that kind of change in the person, all we are called to do is be the vessel by which his love is shown.
So... in our endeavours to spread the gospel and enlighten the lost as to their filthy, heathen ways.... be sure to do it saturated with love!!

There is nothing wrong with your sexuality, any shame you feel is just a cultural thing, you can let it go and be loved for who you are.
