    To explain more about my Christian belief: Paul lists people who will not inherit God’s Kingdom. In that list he equates fornicators, thieves, drunkards, revilers, and men who lie with men. As Ramon explained, fornication is fornication – sex between an unmarried man and woman is no more appropriate than sex between two men. However, according to God’s priciple’s the unmarried man and woman can marry and then their sex is acceptable to God. In God’s eyes two men can never make their relationship acceptable (all of this also applies to lesbians). So while there are technically no degrees of sin, that is how male/female fornication is ‘seemingly’ less offensive than male/male. I do believe that gays can become acceptable to God if they no longer live that life. I understand that may be an extremely difficult choice to make. Some argue that it isn’t a choice, but I believe every action we take in life is a choice – from the overweight person continuing to overeat to the alcoholic continuing to get drunk every night. This change takes extreme faith in God and the knowledge that the pain associated with their ‘loss’ is only temporary. Ultimately God will make us all perfect and remove all our suffering.
