The Double Standard in the LDS Law of Chastity (pic heavy)

[_Shulem]

There is no double standard because the LDS Church coinsiders homosexuality to be sin. Therefore heterosexual courtship cannot possibly be compared to homosexual courtship in terms of standards.

It is the religious leaders who are quilty of sin because they having taking something virtuous and lovely (gay love) and have called it evil and sinful. This truly is sad. But gays won't take it anymore. We are fighting for our rights and demand equal protection under the laws of every land.

You'll just have to deal with it, BC. Gay marriage will become universal. You can't stop progress! The world is getting smarter. Some of the churches remain dumb, Dark Aged judgemental cults.

That is exactly why there is a double standard.

Not every member is allowed to date, court, fall in love, kiss, hug, marry, and have sex with someone that they are sexually attracted to and desire and still remain a temple recommend holding member of the church.

bcspace appears to have a somewhat limited experience of the range of human sexuality. That's fine by me: better that he should not get out of his depth.

bcspace actually knew and worked with homosexuals in the gay hotbeds of Oak Lawn, Texas and Hollyweird, CA. He also had the specific assignment to teach those seeking to return to the Church.

The gay hot bed you refer to "Oak Lawn" is my home. Just because you knew some gays and some who want to return to the church does in no way invalidate the love expressed by millions of gays around the globe. Sadly, religions have confused the minds of a lot gay people who are trying to deal with their true sexual orientation.

You tell me the name of the king in Facsimile No. 3 before telling me how your church leaders are so inspired to condemn one's true sexual orientation. Joseph Smith was no more inspired in saying there was a king's name written in the vignette anymore than Spencer Whore Kimball who condemned homosexual nature. Both religious figures were dead wrong. Science has already proven that. So have I. And my personal life's experiences and testimony is worth more than Spencer W. Kimball's judgemental rants.

See: Freudian Slip

Could be a slip.

BC, do you have homosexual desires at all? What turns you on more -- thinking about being with a man or a woman?

Maybe you're bi. I don't know. Just asking. Only you know. And that YOU do!

Love expressed between two gay men is beautiful. Gay sexual orientation is part of the living cosmos which we live. It's real and runs deep in feeling and affection.

I hope you adapt well, Paul. In the resurrection, failing exaltation, there is neither male nor female. Without the continuation of the seeds there is no need for sexual differentiation.

God is not the author nor the sponsor of confusion. You built your own confusion by not accepting sexual assignment after you got a spirit body. In the proto-pre-existence(the organization of intelligence) we came out of the light of truth into independent spheres of existence neither male nor female. We had a fullness of light and truth which 1/3 refused to be slighted of and therefore rebelled when confronted with the reality that the seeds would demand sexual differentiation and therefore a diminished light and truth. Possibly another 1/3 were stealthy and thought they could sneak their fullness of intelligence past resurrection by NOT accepting sexual assignment and resisted all appreciation for the opposite sex. This act resulted in being born to reject an opposite sex. Sexuality demands expression and the default of same sex attraction manifested.

Well, I hope your plan works for you and you keep a great deal of your fullness of light and truth on the other side of resurrection. Not an unreasonable motive if you figure you would end up in nubville anyways. I think too that there was some Sneaky Satan who led this movement. I think he will be born after the Millennium and corrupt the earth at the end when men begin again to deny their God. The scriptures tell us he will be gay.

Nightlion,

If there is a resurrection and an afterlife -- I promise to open my robe and show you my penis.

Deal with it, you false prophet.

What robe? You will be in nubville. No nakedness to have to cover up.

You're insane.

What is the king's name written in Facsimile No. 3? Why did your founding prophet slander one of the chief gods of Egypt by calling him a slave?

Answer me that, you false prophet.

Really? So tell me, false prophet: Will my voice be high or low? Will I speak like a girl or a boy?

So, I'm going to be like a smoothe Ken doll? Well, I'll be rubbing it.

Please show me your exalted penis in the resurrection. I want to see what they look like. Thanks.

Let's make one thing clear. I did choose to live a homosexual life here on earth after divorce (my 20 year marriage failed) having lived in the closet for so long. Being gay is who I really am. It's as natural as the rain coming from a cloud or the plant that springs up out of soil. I was born that way and always liked boys -- I did not choose my sexual orientation. You did not choose yours either.

What's clear is that if you ever had unforced sex with your wife [insert hilarious picture here] you cannot possibly be homosexual without having chosen it.

I might add that one who leaves his wife and children to have sex with another person or group of persons is a fraud and a mountebank. In nearly any culture. Orientation is irrelevant. Mr. Osbourne had the capacity to live the truth. He lived a lie.

Why he chooses to make his reprehensible personal life a matter of public discourse is odd.
