Is it worse to eat shrimp than to act  like a homosexual?

I asked some people about that yesterday. Apparently it was only supposed to apply to the Israelites... At least that's what they all said but I haven't fact checked it yet.\nThe abominations are the same.\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AqnbbDeGVoLENsNqVkflpGvsy6IX?qid=1006051123125\n\nHere's a link to the questions I asked in regards to leviticus...

Not more tolerant ..............you just keep yourself to yourself.   Hence people don't get to see and confront the bigoted side of your personality.\n\nCould this posting of a question upon "Answers" be like a coming out. Are you maybe coming to terms with something you now see as wrong and looking to confront the inner turmoil ?  Can you really change ? These are the questions that perhaps you should ask yourself.\n\nHeres hoping you find the right answers....\n\nPS.........can't be easy for you with 8 million Thais in the city.

You absolutely can.  Some people don't understand that there's a difference between having the homosexual trait and practicing homosexual behavior.\n\nA homosexual is a person whose instinctual knowledge makes them much more likely to be attracted to persons of the same gender instead of the opposite gender.\n\nHomosexual children usually start having feelings toward people of the same gender around puberty, the same time that heterosexuals start finding the opposite gender attractive.\n\nThis is why it's possible to be gay and a virgin.

I think us Atheists should remind the good ol' christians that Gluttony is a sin too. So, whenever you see a fat christian, be sure to tell them they're going to hell with the homosexuals. It's only fair, RIGHT? ;-)

not at all , its very healthy!   the only time you have to limit  your  ingestion of seafood is when you are pregnant , due to the possibility of mercury, but other than that , enjoy!

No. Either you are a homosexual or you are not. Being in prison doesn't change a person one way or another. Now, it is possible to commit homosexual acts while in prison, and while men like to joke that that makes you a homosexual, it is not necessarily so.\n\nAgain ... either you are homosexual, or you are not.

There were some signs and/or episodes that shows SpongeBob's "homosexuality" persona, but I refuse to believe this, so I don't think he's gay. He just has that happy personality that some wish had (Who can actually be proud of flipping burgers in real life? Nobody!)

It must be biological for one simple reason. In our country right now, to be homosexual is possibly one of the worst sorts of people to be. Honestly, what sane person would CHOOSE to join the ranks of the most hated people on the planet? It makes no sense. Not to mention the level of social stigma one has to overcome to admit to being homosexual, to live one's life well one must accept the hatred and move on. I doubt many would choose such a life.

There's an important distinction that people like you don't grasp. Me and people like me don't dislike gay people. We think they are God's children just like anyone else. What we are against is homosexual acts. Just like we don't dislike adultorers, we just dislike the action they chose to go forward with. It's the old adage - love the sinner, hate the sin. I've known gay people, and I'm fine with them - some of them are extremely kind and generous. But what I am against is if the act out on their tendancy. We all have weaknesses, some are prone to alcoholism, but it doesn't mean that it's ok for them to drink alcohol. Some are prone to drugs, but....you get the picture. It may seem cruel to some to count homosexual acts as sins, but I didn't make the rules, I just trust that God knows what is right and what isn't.

Wow, I wasn't aware of that.  What are we going to do if the shrimp, crabs, lobsters, clams and mussels want to get married?  There needs to be a constitutional amendment banning crustacean marriage, just in case.  We don't want them to threaten the sanctity of other sea creatures' marriages.

Being homosexual is having a sexual attraction to someone of the same gender.

Some people place an inordinate focus on a handful of passages from the Bible (which, as far as literature goes, is terribly overrated) that condemn homosexual behavior as an "abomination."\n\nBecause the Bible is full of contradictory nonsense, what people often do is they pick and choose which parts they will listen to. Like the part about stoning one's children to death if they talk back to you - no one really pays attention to that, or to the passage about how eating shrimp and lobster is an abomination. That would just be too inconvenient.\n\nSo when people already don't like gay people - which is what they pick up from this wonderfully homophobic culture of ours - all they have to do is flip open the Bible and find the passage in Leviticus that agrees with them, and then they can feel perfectly justified in their bigotry. Indeed, they often begin to force this hatred upon others, such as with that awful Fred Phelps and his grotesque little cult in Kansas.\n\nHere's the thing, though: if people do not choose to be gay, but in fact are born that way, what would that say about God? And what would that say about the Bible?\n\nReligious people will either plug their ears or run fleeing from anything that threatens their dearly-head beliefs. It's how they organize their entire thought process about the world and the other people in it, after all. So there is no way they could ever acknowledge that the Bible is mistaken, because God doesn't make mistakes. And if being gay is a mistake, then it must be because people choose to be that way.\n\nBut I look at it like this: those who take the Bible as the inerrant and literal word of God are choosing to be ignorant. Which is also why they continue to think the Earth is only 6,000 years old, was created in six days, and Adam rode a pterodactyl to work.\n\nGive me gay over stupid any day. Cheers!

Actually, homosexuals are the ones that Jesus would have dined with. Not only would they throw better parties, but as they are currently second class citizens, those are the ones who would be with.\n\nJesus would have loved them, as he loves all people.  He would have been a lot more Christ-like than any of his current followers.  The thing that many people forget is Matthew 7 where Jesus says do not judge, lest you be judged as you have judged others.  Telling people that they way they feel is wrong and needs cleansing is in every way judging them.\n\nThose people who say it is a sin and to hate the sin, not the sinner, clearly know no gay people.  The problem with that theory, is it isn't a choice.  _Real_ gay people don't wake up one morning suddenly deciding that they're going to be gay any more than straight people wake up and make the conscience decision to be attracted to the opposite sex.  And anyone who says otherwise is a liar, though I'm not judging them for it.\n\nSo, to answer your question, Jesus would have treated them better than the current followers and many of the people answering this question would have done!!

it's a sin, allright.\nbut in no aspect whatsoever that it is a greater sin.\nYou are right, judging people, liars, adulterers, thieves, gossippers, murderes, and so on are equal sinners as homosexuals (who practice the lifestyles).\n\nChurch who treates homosexuals badly are the misguided one.\nThey are basically the same like the pharisees during the  bible times.\n\nI believe if Jesus to walk the earth today, he would hang out in the midst of homosexuals (delivering them from bondage) -just like he walked in the past (among tax collectors, prostitutes, and so on).\n\nPerhaps, the reason why YOU are put in that kind of church is to testify Jesus' love by reminding them (the congregation and the pastors) the bible truth. That they should treated the homosexuals like human being.\nRemind them that they should hate the sins, not the sinners.

I had at one time raised shrimp, one good website is http://www.seafdec.og, its the South East Asia Fishery Development Center where most of the asian aquacutlure are research, you can also do search text using keywords like "shrimp" "shrimp culture" "aquaculture".\n\nThere are fresh water shrimp and salt water shrimp, they can be distinguish from their shell color, salt water shrimp usually are darker in color or have dark ring like the tiger prawns.\n\nShrimp does not reproduce under culture condition, they reproduce only in wild condition or non culture condition, they only way you can have the female shrimp to molt or reproduce under culture condition is to pinch or prick the left eye, and molting will occurs.\n\nShrimp by the way are cannibalistic in nature, they eat one another including their eggs or fingerlings [baby]. In an aquaculture environment, if they are not properly feed, they will result to eating one another to survive, like the crabs. Shrimp under aquaculture are feed twice a day.\n\nOne more thing, shrimp discharge their waste through their head, not on the tail, which is why when you cook shrimp, on the head side you will find brownish things that are sweet in taste high in protein, those are fecal matter, not toxic, but high in protein and cholesterol.\n\nHope this helps.
