Maybe the state should pay a parent to stay home and raise their child?

In a round about way that is now being done here in the States. It is not a direct pay, but is called Earned income credit for low income families that can not survive on the income of one parent.

Also here there is getting to be a big push for home schooling. This is getting to be a growing trend here. My oldest Daughter is home schooling her 7 youngest Children. Right now I am trying to get certified in Texas to Home School my youngest daughters youngest kids.

As a Christian I believe homosexuality to be sinful. However, I don't plan on becoming a homosexual, so that lifestyle doesn't affect me one way or the other. I understand parents being concerned about this issue because they feel they are losing control of their child's upbringing. Think about it though, children will be bombarded with sexual imagery of all kinds on the television and even at school. There is really no way to escape that reality now.

Salaam,

The question is..do you keep your faitha dn your covenant or do you become subservient to the norm?


It is nor radicalism nor extremism....it is just your own religon laws..

I guess as a muslim,that is why even tho we love the Judaist and Chrisitan we are find thier innovation repugnant..

Jesus Christ never instructed us to persecute anyone. I live in a secular country, not a theocracy, and I don't wish to live in a theocracy. While I find homosexuality to be morally repugnant, that doesn't give me the right to persecute them or punish them for their private sexual behavior. My relationship with God isn't going to be hindered because I choose not to persecute people.

How can it be private if they are forcing my children to learn about it as if it was normal behavior? and by forcing me to promote them in my magazines?

If u follow your line of thought, then one shouldn't persecute or prosecute child molesters, rapists, murderers, terrorists etc?

So you concider learning a bad thing. Oh well, to each his own.

How are you FORCED to Promote them?

I was speaking to a christian/christians who like me - (a muslim) consider it to be a grave sin.

BTW i noticed u did not respond to the other part of my post. and since murder numbers are so high in the world, then i guess that is normal behavior also?

The government has every right to punish those that break “Civil Laws”.
God has every right to punish those that break “god’s laws”.
You have no right to punish those who break either law.

Murder results in harm to fellow beings, as does rape, robbery, etc. Consensual gay sex between consenting adults does not (I do not consider moral 'outrage' regarding the behaviour of others whether motivated by religion or simple bigotism as constituting 'harm').

Define 'normal', anyway. The vast majority of people in the world do not, for example, read classical Greek literature for a hobby. Does that make those who do 'abnormal'? Should they stop reading it because some people think they are? Throughout human history, sadly, murder has been quite 'normal' in that it has happened frequently. That does not mean it is acceptable, of course. But it is that whole normal/acceptable, 'abnormal'/unacceptable assumption that is the problem, here.

Acknowledging that homosexuality exists does not mean that that acknowledgement automatically must 'promote' it as a preferred choice. This won't 'turn' any kids gay, but it may just help those who turn out to be to handle it and accept it without some of the grief the prejudiced wish to pile on them. Their morality will be their choice; it's not up to others to choose it for them.
