As for the Bible on homosexuality (And I most certainly do not agree with the view expressed):
"For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet"
Do note.
Lust, and not
love. Were it ever mentioned that it was love, then it would be explicitly inferred. It was never mentioned.
There's a whole chasm of differences between the two that the point of interpretation or understanding still holds.
Last time I had a conversation about that particular topic, it somehow devolved into a bunch of frothingly hateful Russian priests, annoyingly inconsistent liberal arts students, zealous muslim converts fresh from the prison, surprisingly erudite and considerate skinheads and overly elitist moderators themselves calling each other names until one of the moderators got actually insulted, went ballistic and permanently banned all the participants after deleting the entire subforum.
And then he sent us all a 7600+ words long email, which basically amounted to him being D'Arthagnan and us being fags.

Scary.
I do this mostly with the people in my community and everything is super clean. Yeah, we're very mixed. Muslims, Christians, Catholics. Stuff like that :v
I just wonder how volatile it gets in other places. Not that open-minded/fluid I guess?
Seriously, many people take things too literally. Let's eat our lord and savior! >_>...
WTF: Spiders.
I believe they know when I'm watching them.
I look at my window. I see a jumping spider. It stares back at me through the glass, perched on the windowsill.
It turns around then hops out of view.
...
I turn back and look again a few minutes later. It is in the same position as it was originally, looking at me. Then it jumps away.
Again.
They're watching me. And/or I don't clean my window that much.
