I don't know how old you are, and it honestly doesn't matter, but I hope you learn eventually that spreading hate in the name of God is the exact opposite of what any God or religion stands for. Perhaps people would be truly happier in life, and the afterlife, if they didn't live in constant terror of what lies beyond. It is my belief that people should live happy enough on Earth to not care what comes after. Death is life's greatest adventure and only true mystery, and it should exciting to find out.

@@itsanoformethanks6277 God is a perfect God. Holy. Just. The way we see sin down here, we just give eachother a slap on the wrist. He is MUCH higher than us. He is a HOLY judge. His punishment sentence is death. And that is understandable. Because he is literally God. And hey, he wants us to follow him. Because he created us in the first place. And he loves us with everlasting love. He's our father. He wants us home. But if people choose their selfish sins over their heavenly father, of course their not going to abide with him. Why let someone in your house that you don't know. Jesus says to those, "Depart from me ye workers of iniquity. For I never knew you". You either choose his side , or you don't. It's a harsh reality, and sugar coating it to not 'offend others' will never get them to change their mind for the better.

[@itsanoformethanks6277]

@@Glitchie.Glitch I'm genuinely curious, if it is God's judgement for sin, why should humans have a say in right and wrong? Why should we deem what is good and bad, even with the Bible if we do not truly know how God will judge us. Do you ever worry that your own internal sins change your perspectives on particular issues, and that you are preaching a false message tainted by fake beliefs?

I've never understood the "it's a choice" argument. I didn't CHOOSE to be heterosexual so why would it be a choice for someone to be homosexual?

This I find particularly hard to deal with because I had to attend counselling for not being at peace with my sexuality, and I said then that if it was a choice I would've chosen differently

[@Outlawsrevenge1020]

They use the it's a choice argument to validate thier hatred, and at the same time, devalidate the LGBTQ+'s existence. It's like saying they chose this way of life so they deserve this.
