Why should the year of 2013 change a persons beliefs? Why should a human being balk at what they believe in simply to passify this modern age?

I'm not saying 'don't be religious' I consider myself a catholic. But I don't believe that a) homosexuality is wrong and b) there's no such thing as different levels of sin. Just because you believe in a religion doesn't mean you have to believe in everything that religion's 5,000 year old book says. -

jmogI have a few things to say...
1. For those who keep chirping on "he compared homosexuality to beastiality", come on, do a little research. He was quoting/paraphrasing 1 Corinthians Chaper 6, Verses 6-11 ([SUP]9 [/SUP]Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality, [SUP]10 [/SUP]or are thieves, or greedy people, or drunkards, or are abusive, or cheat people—none of these will inherit the Kingdom of God. [SUP]11 [/SUP]Some of you were once like that. But you were cleansed; you were made holy; you were made right with God by calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.)
He was not saying they were the "same" or saying that one leads to another, he was saying that in his opinion, and in the Bible's, they (along with all the other things he lists, not just those two) are sin. That's it, period.
2. He said in his opinion wanting another man's anus is illogical (to him). Please explain where that is "offensive" and "anti-gay" and makes him a bigot. If someone can seriously explain that without going on a Bible bashing rant, I would love to hear it.
3. Most of you are completely ignoring the rest of the article. Let me quote it for you. "We never, ever judge someone on who’s going to heaven, hell. That’s the Almighty’s job. We just love ’em, give ’em the good news about Jesus—whether they’re homosexuals, drunks, terrorists. We let God sort ’em out later, you see what I’m saying?”
He is saying he has never treated anyone (read homosexual) any different, he loves them, just happens to think what they are doing is wrong.
4. Does A/E have a right to fire him? Absolutely, they can fire whomever they want.
5. Is Sarah Palin and others idiots for saying they are violating his First Amendment rights by firing him? Absolutely. No one is arresting or suing him for what his thoughts are, so his First Amendment rights were not violated. Just because one has the right to say/believe something doesn't mean there are zero repurcussions. One has to know in today's PC world, that any possible discussion about homosexuality that isn't all about 100% support for the LGBT community will have repurcussions (as in someone will get WAY overly offended...I was going to use butt hurt but figured that was too easy).
6. Lastly, I want to know where GLAAD was when Alec Baldwin called a homosexual photographer a "queen"? No backlash from them with him, just on the guy that says he believes homosexuality is a sin and to him, liking men's anus' is illogical. I would say the Baldwin incident is worse than what Phil had to say, but GLAAD didn't lash out at Mr. Baldwin did they? -

You mean like the hypocrits at GLAAD that ignored Alec Baldwin's homophobic slur to a homosexual man, but jumped all over Phil from Duck Dynasty about saying he believed homosexuality was a sin and he didn't understand how a homosexual could like a man's anus over a vagina?Heretic;1555633 wrote:Well, expecting these people to be intelligent and non-hypocritical in their feelings would be too much to ask... -

2. I agree with you, and so does the Bible, that there's no such thing as different levels of sin. Varying levels of 'sin' is a man made concept. The Bible equates all sin equally, looking at a woman that is not you wife lustfully is just as bad as screwing a dude's anus. Sorry guys, it's true . -

Actually the bible does mention varying levels of sin. The concept of a "sin is a sin" comes from the thought that every sin separates you from God, so in that respect "a sin is a sin" is true. However, there is reference to varying levels of punishment, which would insinuate that not all sin is equal. Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is considered an eternal sin.jmog;1555656 wrote:1.

1. He most certainly did not put homosexuals on the same level as criminals. He was asked to make a list of what he thought was sin, and he gave a list, period. The exact question asked was "What do you believe is sinful?" To which he replied with the list you just said, he gave a LIST, did not say one was better or worse than the other.isadore;1555682 wrote:Gosh a ruddies

You are referencing the historical Jewish laws and their levels of punishment, not God's moral laws. Yes, Leviticus (the main book that lists the old Jewish laws) gives varying punishments (some freaking harsh), but that is a man's set of laws just likese-alum;1555684 wrote:Actually the bible does mention varying levels of sin.

Phil actually said he loved everyone, including homosexuals, if you read the whole article. So, please show again where he "hates" homosexuals?
