Comment by trueblue — March 30, 2007 @ 9:33 pm So I guess being a polygamist, thief, child ponographer is part of genetics. The homosexual community kills me. Just admit it, you chose to become a homosexual. Based on biblical scriptures, you'll pay the price during judgement day. People need to finally realize that being gay should be viewed the same as having blue eyes or dark skin.
It’s all genetic.

Comment by trueblue — March 30, 2007 @ 9:33 pm Being gay isn't genetic, it is a choice to give in to temptation to sin. Just as some are tempted to steal, to rape, to kill and to molest children.

Comment by unbelievable — March 31, 2007 @ 9:11 am You just absolutely cannot fathom how Christians could possibly be offended by a chocolate statue that depicted Jesus naked?
