Trial of Lesbian Pastor Begins
Here we go again. Another homosexual person going to be a pastor. This time its a female. Just read about this on yahoo news. You can read about yourself at Click Apprantly, Methodist people are deciding whether or not to allow her to be a minister. I think I voiced this last time but I'll say it again, I don't think a homosexual should be a pastor. I don't have a doctrate in biblical studies but I think I know that God doesn't want someone who is suppose to represent him to go against his word. I found some backing in Leviticus 20:13. And for those that think that the new testament changes anything, need to look at Romans 1:26-27. There are more ofcourse, but those are less likely to be reinterpruted as something else.

Though I am also conflicted. All this stuff in college says that I should be totally accepting of others and let them be. When others tell people what to do, there is repression going on. And ofcourse repression isn't good. Then again, its like, whos side is right? Well, if the creator of the universe wrote one thing, he is undoubtly right. If I think the universe created itself, then people should be allowed to do anything without harming another. Since believing that the universe created itself implies I exsist only to die into nothingness, I'm going to side with the idea that God made the bible and everything in there is unquestionably right.

On a similar note, I find it interesting that the bible becomes edited or reinterrupted by some, once society no longer accepts its system. One thing no longer means what it really says. I think these people want thier sin and salvation too. I want that too, though the inherent flaw of accepting the bible means that you give up accepting everything about yourself. Anyways, I have to go.
