Since that member cannot reply, I'll do my best to find an answer for you.
Yes..... there are many many people whose way-of-living I dissapprove of. I'll pick one, if that's OK......
Murder for money. Judah BarSimon had to have previously been a hired blade. That's how he got his nickname, which I'm never going to find out unless [MENTION=16948]kiwimacahau[/MENTION] knows (Eastern) Aramaic as well as he translates Greek.
Anyway, for Roman readers this nickname was translated into a Latin word with the same meaning..... Sicario. The Sicarii popped up ion the 60's along with the Zealots and these names were used for disciple Simon and Judah. Threre are no folks called Judas in the OT but many called Judah. If you say 'Judah Sicario' ten times quickly, you've got the murderous little traitor smack on........ Judas Iscariot.
Nasty people, blood-for-money killers.
You? Got any lifestyles you abhor? I've got hundreds!

Around here the locals have a blob of Belgae, mixed with a blob of Saxon, plus a dash of Dane, all mashed heavily into Norman.......... so our lot are clear of those commands. :chuckle:
Eh, I do ... adulterers, domestic abusers and predatory adults who prey on children and teenagers. Those topics are rarely discussed.

Good choices!
More?
Robbers! Until a person has suffered the violence, or stared down the barrel of a shaking hoodie's gun, their bowels releasing in terror, trauma for ever, the true horror of robbery cannot really be known.... imo.
Oh.... rapists, of men as well as women.
..thelist is endless.......
....leave some for Glassjester!

Yes, all of us can imagine plenty of examples of lifestyles we do not approve of. I want to see if Mr. Dante can, as well. He will be back soon enough.

Why do you think that should remain illegal?
Remember, "because it's illegal" does not explain why it should be illegal.

Glassjester.....!
You're being naughty, imo.
You know that I am an outright supporter of and for equality for all. and therefore I personally would not support the idea that brothers could marry brothers whilst brothers could not marry sisters.
Glassjester, you're hanging your hat on a weak hook there! :chuckle: But it does show how tenuous the argument against ssm, when critics need to search into such corners in hopes of finding some wonderful argument against ssm
You can't win legally.
You can't win theologically.
You can't win philosophically.
You can't win logically.
Why not embrace the love connected with ssm?
Heh! I asked you for your reasons why folks marry.
Got yer list ready?

Equality of opportunity ....................
Where's your 'reasons to marry' list?

So you believe a brother should not be allowed to marry a brother, because a brother cannot marry a sister?
That makes no sense.
Why should the legal status of the one affect the other?
What if two brothers are consenting adults, love each other, and want to be married? On what basis would you deny those two particular people the right to marry?
One thing at a time, please.

Looks like you don't know much about equality Glassjester.
But then a lot of Christians don't know much about equality. Why, I know of denominations where women are not allowed to speak in service, or to hold office. I've even heard that some Churches still require women to promise to obey their future husbands.
Of course you wouldn't understand why legal status of a brother would affect legal status of a sister, or vice versa.
In the UK we have 'level' marriages; we even have female priests and bishops..... No, I was silly to expect that you would understand why a male should only have the same rights as a female.
Sorry about that.
:chuckle:
You can only handle one thing at a time? How do you manage in a class full of pupils?
I just don't think that you've ever really thought about the varying reasons why people marry, Glassjester.
It must have left you in a bit of a vacuum, that question.

Er, no. Look from about page 18, 19. (whole thread really). You 'assert' over others you are right.
No, no as a matter of fact, you are wrong and the Lord listens to my prayers. It is one of the scriptural marks of being near to Him.
You are the one who goes against Him, doesn't know Him that well. And that's a fact. There is no 'pride' in saying rather: Know the Lord!
You don't, not nearly as well as fully knowing His scriptures would allow, and you are remiss in your relationship and studies with Him.
None of it sinks in, however. You will go on along your own audacious self and simply 'think' I'm the one that is. :nono: Start reading yourself. I reread myself and pray a lot, that I've been clear, not overt, but not lacking forcefulness either. A walk with God matters. Your walk is arrogant yet not nearly as close or informed for that arrogance. It is arrogance in fluff and ignorance.
You were bashing others in thread. Yeah, you have no 'reason' for thinking that you are better than others.Look, Lon....... it's OK.
You're a very Holy person.
I get that.
You're cleverer, know more, of higher IQ, and more certain of Heaven...... than me.
Now...... relax.
We'll see if you shove your trash further from here. You've been wrong about everything else.
I'm reasonably intelligent, reasonably well-educated. More importantly to me, are the years I've walked with the Savior and know His Word.
The point was, you assert one idea. You know the Apostle Paul's stance. It is even the Lord Jesus Christ's stance (one and the same). -Lon

BUT it makes it clear it entails marriage as well. "...what fellowship has light with darkness?"
"Yoked" is very much about a union. The Lord Jesus Christ went so far as to say that father against sons in His kingdom.
There is no possible way to say it isn't also about marriage. It certainly is. -Lon

1 John 4:8 Yet Psalm 139:22 So, hate is fine, but 'what' you hate is important. I hate sin. You?
I had originally thought you'd produce verses such as 1 John 4:8 Was it because it said "brother" that you didn't? :think:

Angels are not men. Further the Jews are quite clear that it was inhospitality which destroyed Sodom et al which is why Jesus linked people being inhospitable to the seventy with judgement like Sodom's.
