Here, here to all of the above.. seems too many want to just pick and choose through the Bible that which they want to follow and forget the rest.

It&#039;s good to know that others understand in this day of women (even the homosexual ones) being ordained (an oxymoron) that women are not meant to be in places of clergy. 

That bit about &#039;Let your women remain silent in the Church&#039; (and for those that don&#039;t believe me, it is in the Bible) gets to a lot of &#039;em.. ;-)

I have a question though.. I believe that homosexuality a choice, it is brought upon these people by that great deceiver (satan) and they won&#039;t understand that.. that said my question is this.. if they claim they are born that way then why are they doing everything in their power, having &#039;pride&#039; parades etc.. and trying to FORCE us not only to accept them for their deviant lifestyle, but to allow our children to be taught that lifestyle CHOICE is acceptable in schools? Why are they so intent on BEING those teachers?? 

If it is SO &#039;natural&#039; that they are born that way then why is any of this important.. I am heterosexual but do I have a &#039;non-butch&#039; haircut and get out there with a &#039;heterosexual pride&#039; bumper sticker/t-shirt and go to a &#039;pride&#039; parade and run around dressed and acting like an idiot hollering suggestively at the heterosexual guys that walk by me? 

If this was a valid &#039;born that way&#039; thing then wouldn&#039;t they want to just be seen as an everyday person, who would care about their private life but them and their family (though I grant there are some out there that do try to just live like normal people)... and I DO know about being different.. being born with MD you are different from everyone but I live my life as normally as anyone else and don&#039;t run around trying to tell others &#039;you HAVE to accept me, I have MD, and I was BORN that way..&quot;, heck people would look at me and say &quot;yeah, so? what&#039;s your point?&quot;

Almost everything about these people smacks of sin.. and that ain&#039;t morally or naturally right. Like Basti said on another post.. &quot;It also matters not what an individual might have done that was good, if he is a homosexual it is all tainted by that perversion.&quot;

(Sorry it&#039;s so long Fred, I got carried away.. :-) )</description>

		<description>There are almost as many synods in the Lutheran church as there are other denominations.  sigh....  The one I belong to, WELS, doesn&#039;t even allow the women to become pastors, much less vote at the meetings.  I&#039;d say, odds are, WELS will not be one of the afore mentioned Lutheran churchs.  Guess I&#039;d just have to change again.  :/</description>

		<description>The bible is very clear about the qualifications of their leadership i.e. pastors/minister etc. They are to be &quot;men&quot; with one wife not given to drink or excesses.
&lt;b&gt;Homosexuals or women&lt;/b&gt; are prohibited by God&#039;s decree to be leaders in ANY position in His church.  Modern ppl have a problem with it, then get a life... cuz your life in the eternities are forever forfeited because of your pride and misunderstanding of biblical precepts.  And I agree with Robert..Homosexuality is nothing more then a lustful driven CHOICE, and not genetic or from some sort of lousy potty training..end of statement, end of discussion!!
&#039;Nuff said</description>

		<description>Fred Phelps and his idiot cult are not too far off when it comes to this issue. 
Homosexuality is an abomination in the eyes of GOD. 
I&#039;ll go one step further; if one makes choice to take it in the poop shoot, one should not expect an accepting eye from society.

YES I said it, Homosexuality is a CHOICE. It is not a birth trait, it is not a fate predestined, it is a CHOICE. and when you choose to be a faggot, you should be bannished to San Francisco with the rest of the butt pirates.

The Church in question, might as well be a Mosque, in the eyes of the lord it is as sinful to be a faggot as it is to worship false prophets, and idols.</description>

		<description>Agreed: They may want to consider renaming this so called church from Lutheran to Luciferan if this is where it&#039;s going.</description>
