Well .. what do you think and why?

I've started this topic given my discussion with Greens_Win in here:

Ok .. I'll go first.

1) Was Jesus Christ gay? No

2) Why? Because there is nothing in the Bible to support the view/opinion that Jesus was gay.

OK, I'll play for a little while...


1) Maybe.

2) Because:

a) To the best of my knowledge, he never sired any children - and he died an unmarried man.

b) If he faithfully followed in his almighty father's footsteps and teachings, then why did he not go forth and procreate!?

Right there is the flaw in all your arguments - the best of your knowledge is the best the Sydney Morning Herald/Pravda on the Yarra/Green Left Weekly can offer. Thin smacking gruell to orient your whole life by.

The Bible says:

Leviticus 20:13

Quote:
If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination:
they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.


As Jesus could not sin he couldn't have been gay.

LOL...I do not claim to be an authority on any religion - but I would suggest that you lay off your own foolish assumptions...

You are the one asserting somemthing, citing access to evidence, yet unable to provide any.

Full of sh!te is the colloquial adjectival phrase for you, spinning dizzily yes/no person.

It's important that people be given the opportunity to answer openly and honestly .. irrespective of whether or not we agree with their posts.

These sorts of discussions ought to be brought out into the open .. however uncomfortable or controversial they may appear.

LOL...Soren, the only 'evidence' that either of us could seek to rely upon, is one of several re-re-revised (and conflicting) pseudo-ancient texts that each claim to be the definitive word of a mythical and almighty doG...despite apparently being authored by dozens of other mere mortal human beings over a few generations in an era of low literacy - and since re-revised and translated by countless others over several centuries...

I accept that a much-revered man, by the name of Jesus (or similar) may have existed a couple of thousand years ago - and I have no reason to believe that such a person ever married or sired any children...

That said, there is not much point in trying to prove a negative proposition and I'm not particularly-interested in the thread topic - but please do feel free to bring forth your own argument/s and/or evidence...

LOL...I do claim to be an authority on any religion.

Therefore, He was not GAY. He was GUY. haHA. gaGA.

He was much more enrapt in the religion (which means aspiration) of life, therefore not the sexual undertones. Amen and Awomen.

However, his countenence should mean he was the happiest, or gayest, most laughing, person in all of life.
 Strangely, something you never find written in the solemn Bible. :(

He could have been, but what does it matter? although he was a great teacher and role model, he was a man like any other.

I can only surmise, my not having met him myself...

But I believe he was a normal mortal like the rest of us, a bit of a heretic, alternative religious guru, a cult leader even, who went against the grain, had bastard children out of wedlock much like the rest of us, and due to the oppressiveness of the day, hung/nailed (whatever)  for his crimes, ... being a dissident.

I bet he was very political, made posters and protested on Mt Zion.

He was probably quite bright, anti-conformist, I imagine him being a bit of a revolutionist, John Lennon type of character, only without the glasses obviously.

As for miracles?


No, being agnostic, I cant fathom this concept myself.



Truth be known, he may have had a touch of mental illness, as do most religious zealots who believe they have 'special' powers.

8-)
.... .... That or had a bit of a complex being conceived out of wedlock, which was a big deal in those days.

It depends which version you read. What about Mary Magdalene and Sarah?

Was he gay? No. Was he bisexual? Yes (only kidding)

Light:

Deus (Latin) / Zeus = god
Zeus Pater = God the father = Jupiter
(or Proto Indo European Dyēu-pəter meaning Sky God Father)
Dēva (Sanskrit) - God

All these terms came from the original sky god concept. The English word Day comes from the Latin word dies which derives from an Indo European word similar to Sanskrit dyaus.

The association of daylight and the sky god (sun god) holds in a number of languages. For example in Etruscan we have Tin = The Supreme God (like the Greek Zeus) Tins' = day.

I have no evidence mohammad was gay. Were as the christian writings show it is likely Jesus was gay or bi.

I would be extremely surprised if you could prove that. Have a go anyway.

I see you are Hendrix fan that makes 2 of us  :)

However didn't Mohammud marry a girl of the age 6-9 and consumate the marriage at the tender age of 9 years old?. I refer to Aisha. That would make him a pedophile correct?

My mistake, I thought you were referring to Jesus Christ, who was a cool dude, like Jimi Hendrix.
