1. What's that Gospel verse where Jesus Christ unambiguously condemns homosexuality?

Anyone?

[tblue37]

3. On the other hand, he does spend a lot of time requiring that people

be treated with kindness, not judged or condemned, especially by those who are not themselves without sin--and, by the way, also requiring the well off to be generous toward the poor. Broussard should attend to his own glass house.

(BTW, I am not religious--but I do get tired of the mouthy religious types who are so ignorant about what their own religion's central figure actually required of his followers.)

10. Something about homosexuals is in some translations

1 Timothy 1:10 (CEV) | In Context | Whole Chapter
10 The Law was written for people who are sexual perverts or who live as homosexuals or are kidnappers or liars or won’t tell the truth in court. It is for anything else that opposes the correct teaching.

The link will take you to the passage in the different versions.

11. Pardon my ignorance but who was Timothy? To me, "Gospel" is Matthew, Mark, Luke or John (nt)

[truebluegreen]

14. Egzactly...nt

15. His reference about their fruits is from Matthew 7:15-17

But it doesn't mention homosexuality, just false prophets.

2. If you believe that being gay is an "open rebellion to god"

Then DON'T openly rebel to god!

4. Well you knew the bigots would show their faces.

But you know what they say about those who complain the loudest.

5. YEP!!! my younger brother is gay and he's told the family there's a lot of undercover hypocrites

Out there who are hitting on men and at the same time have girlfriends or married with kids.

[uppityperson]

17. Those who complain the loudest are the most obvious jerks? Or do you mean...

If you mean those who proclaim homosexuality wrong the loudest are secretly gay, then are KKK assholes secretly black?

18. As a gay man I have found throughout my life the people who I grew up with that gave me the hardest

time for being gay ended up being gay themselves. I can think of 5 kids from High school that gave me the hardest time and all came out at later dates than I did.

6. Why is this guy on ESPN?

It's a sports network, not a religious program.

[RKP5637]

7. Absolutely! One of my friend's has a theory about some of these guys, that they are sooo

upset about what they might have done in their youth with raging hormones, that they engage in this chastising behavior to help block those feelings of guilt brought on by the god-people.

8. Broussard pretty much signed his pink slip with those comments. If he stays with ESPN, he'll be

commentating shuffleboard at 4am on ESPN 4, lol.

9. DING DING DING! Erose999, you're our grand prize winner!

Broussard pretty much signed his pink slip with those comments...

I hope so -- It's not a sportscaster's job to provide color commentary about who's holier than thou! And Broussard ought to reconsider saying "the Bible says you know them by their fruits" -- that cuts BOTH ways.

12. 'you know them by their fruits.'

Is that bible quotation relevant to homosexuality, or did he just want to take the opportunity to call Jason Collins a fruit?

I'm suspecting the latter.

[rocktivity]

19. In the Biblical sense, "fruits" means "values"

Other translations of the Bible have the verse as "by their works, ye shall know them" -- that is, in order to really understand a person, you should study his beliefs or actions. Broussard is saying that Collins is unworthy as both a person and a Christian because he "believes in" homosexuality. But Broussard doesn't realize that he's also saying that he himself is qualified to decide how worthy a Christian you are.

When you point a finger at someone, you point three fingers at yourself.

20. Thanks for the info. "...by their works..." I do recognize.

I was raised somewhat secular and agnostic.

[justiceischeap]

13. The problem is this whole God business

it has no place on TV outside the 700 Club and all those other religious channels on TV. If you're an announcer for ESPN, you shouldn't be bringing your personal, religious beliefs into the conversation because it's obvious that Collins and Broussard were raised to believe in a different type of God.

16. LOL Darryl. That's why I like your posts

You don't hold back. Tell us how you feel!
