Questions
Hey everybody, as I’m a celibate homosexual and was wondering if someone could clarify some issues for me.
As a prelude I would like to state that I am in no way here to debate or criticize. I am here to here hear your views about homosexuality.
I have read some literature written by Dr. White. I’ve seen the videos that were recently put online. The position of Soulforce (insofar as I understand it) is that homosexuality is: not a choice and a natural human feeling, and homosexual relationships are valid alternatives to heterosexual relationships.
I fully agree with the first two, and am currently seeking the truth for the third.
The feeling I get from your literature is that it is the belief of SoulForce that homosexual relationships are amoral because homosexual feelings are natural and are not chosen.
My question is: How do you make the jump between homosexual feelings being natural and homosexual relationships being amoral? Many human emotions are natural, and at the same time are lead to immoral behavior. It is natural for humans to fear/hate that which they don’t understand, and I (as a homosexual growing up in a very conservative environment) have been victimized by such “normal” human reactions to the issue of homosexuality. There are many emotions that are very natural, yet acting upon them is wrong. Greed is one of them, hate, jealousy, anger; all of these natural human feelings can lead to sin if acted upon.
So, again, How does homosexuality being natural automatically imply that acting on those feelings is alright?
Again, I am not looking for debate in any way shape or form; just some clear answers.
