Yeah, that's like saying I invented it.One is using his own interpretation and the other is blindly following someone else's interpretation.
No, all I said is that the Roman Catholic church didn't teach me it. I learned that while I was a protestant. There's plenty of evidence for it, both in scripture and in the writings of the Church fathers.

Oh, that's right. You're not Christian, I forgot. My apologies. The law of Moses isn't yet fulfilled in your eyes so you're stuck in Old Testament mentality. (Not to mention you're misreading that part as well.)Originally posted by Ben Kenobi View PostComment

@ Rah
Not really. I am pretty sure he uses the RCC to hide the fact that he always will be against gays, no matter what.
I will even go so far in stating that he is not even interested in following the other teachings that come with the package unless he stands to gain from it personally..."Ceterum censeo Ben esse expellendum."Comment

Well, then.

It's obviously a story about treating guests well, not about sexual propriety.Originally posted by Ben Kenobi View Post
But it is very interesting how you equate the statements from "God":
"Cast out the beam from your own eye"
"Love thy neighbor"
"Judge not lest ye be judged"
"Let he who is perfect cast the first stone"
"Whatever you have done to the least of these, you have done it unto me"
"come out so we can have sex with him!" :hmm:Comment

So the proper code of etiquette is to appease your guests by sending your daughters out to service them?It's obviously a story about treating guests well, not about sexual propriety.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

It's a pretty messed up code of etiquette... but luckily I'm not the one stuck in Old Testament mentality. Let's just hope you never have any daughters...Originally posted by Ben Kenobi View PostComment

Why did he send his daughters out, and why did he believe that doing so was actually better than what they wanted to do?It's a pretty messed up code of etiquette... but luckily I'm not the one stuck in Old Testament mentality.

Because the men were his guests. The daughters were just his daughters, which were viewed as little more than cattle (and often interchangeable with them) back then. (One of the many reasons why living your life according to Old Testament ideals is just ****ing backwards and stupid.)Originally posted by Ben Kenobi View PostComment

So if Lot had not taken them it, what the men wanted to do with the other man, was ok? Is that what you're saying?Because the men were his guests.

Rape is never ok (according to me... the OT is kinda ambiguous on that point). It has nothing to do with hetero/homosexual and everything to do with rape being bad.Originally posted by Ben Kenobi View PostComment

Which brings us back to the question again - why is it ok to rape the daughters but not ok to rape the men? If it's about rape why are the two treated differently?Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

I said the OT was ambiguous on that point. I stated the opinion about rape was my own. You really need to work on your reading comprehension.Originally posted by Ben Kenobi View PostComment
