That seems to be the way things are, so, perfectly normal.

Just remember God became angry with Sodom and Gomorrah and destroyed them.  Today society is becoming more corrupt and the U.S. has something like 6,000 nuclear weapons ready to go;  presumably Russia has a similar amount.  It wouldn't take much to trigger WW3 and destroy most of life on the planet and those remaining in great distress as they die off slowly.  But this is not what the Bible prophecies so I guess it's not going to happen that way.  But there could still be a nuclear war with 100s of millions killed and 100s of millions suffering and dying.  I think all the corruption of society is just another sign we are in the last days before the Lord returns.

Just so I’m not confused. Did  you just relate the lgbt community to nuclear war?

No.  I was just mentioning Sodom and Gomorrah as an example where the corruption of society in those places led to their destruction.  

But the world today is in a general state of corruption and rebellion against God.  No one group owns that.  Most of the world is opposed to God and the Bible.  I was referring to the general corruption and evil in the world.  According to the Bible, man has an evil heart.  So, you can draw your own conclusions as to what all the nuclear weapons means or where it could lead with evil men in control.  The world could self destruct much of itself before the Lord returns.   But actually the book of Revelation does give some information that things will be bad during the Tribulation.

2. There's no God, and therefore he's ok with gayness and - being omnipotent and omniscient - has signed off on not existing.

What a load of rubbish!  I bet your buddies here won't even realize that!   You don't make any sense.

 

If there is no God......

..........whom are you referring to who's "okay with gayness, and being omnipotent and omniscient?"  YOU?

God is absolutely on board with not existing, since he created the universe, and everything and therefore himself.  He created you and knows what you did before you do it, and knows that you have free will to choose sin or salvation even though you only have one choice - which is the outcome he himself knows.

 

He can see forward to the end of the universe, when all matter collapses back into the singularity that existed at the very beginning of it all - before the big bang.

 

You see - God even invented "Be Kind, Rewind"

Yup, just like the thousands before you who saw signs.

Voting gay people off the big island to their own island? I don’t understand your point. That would never happen. 

Go back and read it again. Then try and get my point.

On top of that......we got crazy weather all over the world!  And earthquakes, and illnesses and  superbugs.  We got drought and famine.....and of course, all these senseless killings.

They say it's just a matter of time when the global economy will really tumble down. 

 

No, this isn't a prophecy.  It could be a wake-up call.

You said that it is normal to have a certain percentage of homosexuals? Why would that be normal? Just curious.

I am not really sure what your point is. You constructed an impossible scenario for propagation of the species. You might as well put 100 heterosexual males (or females) on an island, you would get the exact same results.

Why wouldn't it be?  It's not like they just appeared last week.  They've been around for as long as heterosexuals.

And asexuals have been around for a long, long, time.  
 

If you don't believe me, try looking for videos of monophyletic domain Bacteria "doing it".  You won't find that kind of porn online - and believe me I have LOOKED.

But can homosexuals have children together naturally or not? Only heterosexuals can create new life. Nature intended for a male and a female to get together and create new life. All I am saying here is that homosexuality is not normal. My opinion.

Everyone's entitled to their opinion.  I disagree with yours on this issue.  There would be no point to so many relationships if it were only about children.  My wife and I have had all the kids we're going to.  Why bother sticking together?

Many gay relationships want to have children but they cannot unless they adopt a child. A child grown up with two mommies or two daddies has to be a sad situation for the child especially when they have to go to some school event or play with other kids in the park and the two mommies or two daddies are there. Even the child must ask his/her two mommies or two daddies at one point if it is normal when they see other kids who are with a mommy and a daddy and ask their gay parents are those people normal over there? The child may be even smart enough to ask as to how the mommy and daddy have children. Now that would have to be a bit embarrasing for the gay couple to have to reply to, don't you think?

Not at all.  It's a good thing to have a smart kid.

Well, I am dam glad as hell that I had a mommy and a daddy. You should be to otherwise you would not be here talking to me right now. And I will bet that your children are happy as hell also that they had a mommy and daddy to or they would not be here on earth.

You may think that’s an incredibly smart response but it makes no sense to me since I’m an atheist. You are going to have to spell it out for me.

I don't know.  Sounds pretty sheeple to me...

Yep.  No wonder there's no mention of genders when God created other creatures beside mankind.  He just said, "according to their kind....."

Folks,

I took down a few garbage posts.

Avoid personal banter. None of you are the topic of this thread discussion.

It's not rocket science.  Some just can't seem to get it.
