    How do you know Mary sits at the right hand of Jesus? The Bible says that somewhere? Or did you just assume it? Also, there is a difference between praying TO Mary and asking her to pray to Jesus on your behalf.

    Pornography is wrong in so many ways. I, too, am a Baptist, and learned how bad porn was long before my religion taught me anything. As a young child, I saw pornography tear my parents apart. It also created a problem between my father-daughter relationship. Second of all, it’s gross. Why would you want to see naked people? I guess for guys it’s the whole eye-candy thing, but for girls … I have no clue. As for the religious aspect, porn causes you to lust, and anyone you lust for other than your wife or husband is a sin.

    There are more hearing people than there are not, and in this country I am sad to say that sometimes the majority wins, and anyone different from that has to suffer. That is a very good question, though. I have tried to learn at least some sign language because it is a good tool for communication.

    I attend a religous college and have taken courses in both the new and old testament. If i could just make a few corrections to an earlier statement. Leviticus was written for the tribe of Levi (one of the 12 tribes of Israel). The tribe of Levi were preist. Thus the book is a code of conduct for preists. Now when Jesus came along in the new testament, this code of conduct got replaced with Christ sacrifice. so that verse you quoted doesn’t apply to anyone anymore, because of the new covenant of Christ. However, within the new testament homosexuality is address directly. Romans 1:18-32 specifically states that because the people were so inlove with themselves and not of the things of God, He gave them over to their sinful desires. He cursed them with homosexuality because of their rebellion against God. This is why Christians are so unexcepting of homosexuality. I do agree with an earlier statement that it is NO one’s place to judge except God’s. But it is our job to hold our brothers and sister accountable and help them not stumble.

    Just a question to think about. What are your morals based on?
