Christian Science does not agree with the theory that morals grow out of people's behavior. It stands firmly on the ground that morals for mankind are derived from the divine Mind, God, and that they are therefore ageless. Morally right behavior pertaining to sex was revealed by Moses. Christ Jesus unveiled more of the spiritual basis of the moral law, but of this law he said, "I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil." Matt. 5:17; Mrs. Eddy in her revelation of Christian Science shows us that human behavior in accord with the moral law is scientifically related to divine Truth. And in this scientific relationship we find the basis for the healing of sin. That homosexuality is a deviation from the moral law is made plain in the Bible, where it is recorded that the Lord spoke to Moses saying, "If a man ... lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death: their blood shall be upon them." Lev. 20:13; In Jesus' Sermon on the Mount we find the harshness of the Mosaic law modified. We also find emphasis placed more on motives than on overt acts. But we do not find any actual change in the rightness or wrongness of behavior in regard to sex. Lust is explained as a thing of the heart, and Christian Science shows that the motives of the heart govern the acts of the body as well as the health of the body.

      You speak English because is your mother tongue, I speak English because that’s the only language you can understand. We are not the same.

      There’s a difference in forcing a child to go to school and forcing a child to blindly follow the tenants of a cult established by uneducated people living more than 2000 years ago. In the first case you are forcing your authority on the child to provide him with the tools needed to be accomplished in this life, as our history as a species has shown for the past two centuries, when child teaching has started to become more and more common also for the poorest classes in our societies while also our standard of living have been improving steadily. In the second one you are forcing unreasonable and, in some cases, even conflicting beliefs not based in any logic or research but in pure faith alone. What if your son does not share the same beliefs as you? Who are you to force these onto him without a single shread of evidence proving their innate validity? What if you are wrong about the afterlife and Muslims, Buddhist or any other religion are right? Are you ready to bring upon yourself and upon your child eternal damnation due to your decisions?

      Lastly there is no god. Or at least there is no god as it is described by Christianity or any other major religion. God is a concept completely alien to humans, were we able to understand it we would be god’s ourselves. Since this is not the case one can only logically assume that we still haven’t find the right “god” to worship

          Well then, wait for god to show himself to you and you alone while, at the same time, leaving everyone else free to live their lives as they see fit for themselves.

          Remember what Jesus has left as only commandments: don’t judge if you don’t want to be judged and love the others as you love yourself. Of course these are two commandments which are not applicable for modern rightoids as they are well too ready to judge others and hate their neighbours if they don’t think as they would like them to but this is something they will have to discuss with their god once they’ll leave this earth. Until them we will be in their way when they’ll try to fix the their false religion and god upon us non-believers as our constitutions and legal frameworks allow us to do.

              Lmao, you call me ignorant while at the same time displaying the greatest level of hypocrisy you are putting up for the holiday season it’s priceless.

              Let me remind you that you believe a con man to be a saint despite the catholic church evaluation of said con man. Talk about ignorance.

              I won’t be judged by god in the end because I don’t believe god to be interested in our human activities. With the whole cosmos at her fingertips loosing time watching a sad reality show as the one we are currently putting in place in this plant would qualify her as a very low-intelligence being, which I think does not fit the definition of a god.

              Lastly I’m not going anywhere since you aren’t providing any truth at all in your statements.

              Ciao!
