Do you believe that sinning is a choice that man makes? I realize that when we are tempted, that most times it is our choice to give in and sin. But because we have a sinful nature, that is born into us, does that mean that we have no option but to sin?
We had a visit today from a lesbian woman at school today. She works for Gay and Lesbian Health Services, and came to talk to us, to try and dispel some myths, and help us to understand that 'queers' (that is what she likes to call them) are very much people who deserve respect too.
I realize that, but I do know that they are choosing to live a life of sin. However, we all live sinful lives. I don't think a day passes where we don't all sin. And to God sin is sin is sin, doesn't matter how 'bad' society sees it as. Also when she was talking to us today, the question of choice vs heredity came up. She said, 'In all honesty, can you imagine CHOOSING a life so filled with persecution and hatred?" And I am not condoning her lifestyle, but I tend to agree with that. Why would someone choose that for themselves? And at the same time, God has said that it is an abomination, so would he create someone who was genetically programmed to be that way? I realize these are tough questions that no one really has any answers to. However, I would like to hear what you have to say about it.
