Why is it Gay people and Christians act so similar?

Yes, you're right - it's very ironic....\n\nAnd Hell yeah, they act similar. So why do Christians hate them so much?? Yeah, I dont get it....\nHopefully someone can give you a better response to this question than I can.

I understand where you are coming from.  Christians get that stereotype because of others claiming to be a christian.  Thats not what the bible says Christians are suppose to act like but thats what everyone wants to see and judge.  But as long as i know where i stand with God it doesnt matter what anyone else says.  God Bless!!

Jesus said "love one another as I have loved you" if you are a Christian (according to the rules set down in the Bible) you would know that sodomy is an offence unto God.\nHowever, it is very difficult to express your feelings as a Christian and a gay person, obviously the two don't mix according to book read Christians!On the other hand...women get away with murder, they are not sodomites but still call themselves gay? There are too many variables in this debate, so let's go back to "love one another as I have loved you." After all friend, it is between you and your God.

I think that it's a strong possibility, but you know that the "christian" homophobes will write you some nastygrams about this question.  Funny how they are both Christians and hate gays.

There are legit christians, but many are homophobic. They may not be violent, but their words are. They claim "Homosexuality is a choice", but that contradicts the latest scientific experiment on the brains of homosexuals and lesbians (I also know myself, being gay, that it's something you have since birth, I myself discovered I was gay around age 5). Basically, everything they're saying about gay people is false, and they need to grow up. Even though I'm an atheist, I don't mean to offend anyone's religion, but sometimes I think people take advantage of their religion and their bible and "paraphrase" content in it to meet their specific agenda for hate. You can tell they're doing this because they ignore the fact that gluttony is a sin, as well as wearing certain fibers, yet they ignore that, and persecute the gays. It doesn't add up, does it.

The gays are no different then anyone else, and shouldn't be treated differently. Christians of all people should know this.

Christianity is not open because people are so critical of others.  If we make one mistake then people look down on us and make the remark "and your a christian".  People forget that we are all human and we all sometime or other make mistakes.

Yes I know someone who know longer chooses the homosexual lifestyle and they follow Christ.  Two actually.  A woman and a man.  The fell in love, got married, and have 2 kids.  They did not turn heterosexual, though.  Think of homosexuality like alcoholism.  That might make some mad, but that is the best analogy I can give.  If you are a follower of the Bible, certain things are wrong.  Just because you have a desire doesn't mean you should act upon it.  Homosexuals are just hurting people, many have poor if any relationship with their fathers and some were sexually abused as children.

It's both! Look up my answer on "why's religion against homosexuality?" I suspect many homophobes are more afraid of something in themselves than outraged by the private act between two guys. The "holy rollers" have a paradigm of values dictated to them. This becomes their identity. Anything different suggests that they may be wrong. \n Why else are there so many religious replys here? If we don't like something, we avoid it. If something is a threat to us, we attack it.

The same reason christians and jews are.

It makes immature people uncomfortable, because all they think about are the "acts" of a gay person. Then some decide to hide behind scripture as a defense for there intolerance. For the record, if you believe the same god powerful enough to create the entire universe cares what two adults do in the privacy of there own bedroom as long as there not hurting anyone else, you need to reevaluate your spiritual priorities.

that is not a question that can so simply be answered.  sure you have those that talk the talk.  they pride themselves on being a a true christian but then they will turn away from someone who is not the same color or sexual preference.  and sure homosexuality according to christianity is a sin but also the bible states that a sin is a sin.  no matter how great or small and the only unforgivable sin is not believing in the father and our jobs as christians is to produce fruit for the father yet if you are too busy turning your back on those who love the same sex or are living a life of sex drugs n rock n roll etc etc how are you able to produce adaquate fruit?\n\nthen again there are those who talk the talk and walk the walk.  as best they can.  i think somewhere in the bible it says as far as preachers going n their being corrupt that we should follow their teachings and not their actions.

I as a Christian personally believe that homosexuality is wrong. Although I say it is, we must always remember, hate the sin, not the sinner. I will gladly get along with a homosexual, but I avoid that sin in their life and try to help them with it.

One of the many reasons I left the Christian Faith.  Damn women oppressing Nazis!\nEDIT_THIS IS WHAT TICKS ME OFF!  In one breath most Christians will tell you that being gay is an abomination, and in the next, they decide they don't want this one to apply.  You can't have it both ways.  Either you follow the Bible or you don't.  This is why people call Christians lying hypocrites.

Oh, I hear you on this one.  Of all the people on this earth, Christians are the most judgemental of all.  And, I was raised in the Christian church and it was always said that we should never judge, that only God can judge.  A person's sins are between them and God.  But, so many Christians forget this in their daily life.  It was also taught to me that all sins are equal, that is murder is just as bad as, say, swearing.  So, you are also right to question why homosexuality is so very bad in their eyes.  The hypocrisy is why I have fallen away, I just couldn't deal with it anymore.  I still believe in a God of sorts, but I will not subscribe to any organized religion.  It makes people crazy.

Oh, Honey...You are as God made you. You have to realize that The Crator made ALL kinds of people. Gay people ...staight people...people who are Buddist...some who are Baptist some who are Pagan ..even some who are Republican!!! You are not going against God when you follow your very nature. Love your self...love others and don't buy into that judgemental crap that God only loves straight people. God IS love.

people are programmed to accept what is told to them as "normal". most of the religions denounce homosexuality as sinful, or even unnatural. thus the conditioning of the larger chunk of the society. it will be ages before we could fully understand the underlying "causes" of homosexuality. till then, there will always be those who fail to understand the fact that gay people are people too. and those that say gay people need not crow about their sexuality - would they be willing to listen if we kept a little quieter and submissive about our rights? chiefly the right to not be made fun of for what we are?
