lol, no you are so gay, why don't you grow a pair and try to take some responsibility
instead of shirking it to your women, next you'll be acting like a lion, sending your
women out to bring home the beacon while you mooch about trying to pretend you are
important.

what does 'you are so gay' mean and what is the connection between this and 'growing a pair'?

whats the problem with woman bringing home the bacon?

Pauline instructions, nothing from Jesus on the issue?

It's interesting to note that the authorship of the Epistles you referenced are disputed by scholars. The evidence indicates that these letters were not written by Paul.

Paul wrote more books of the Bible than anyone else, that Jesus never mentioned the matter is significant how and on what basis are they disputing Pauls authorship?

it may mean homosexual but the term, you are so gay does not actually mean you actually are gay, it simply means you are effeminate, at least where i come from anyway.

The bible contains 66 books written by a whole host of different people over 1600 years. There are bound to be contentious issues.

One will contradict the other. My problem with the bible is that it is hard to make out
what is fact and what is myth.

What is literal and what is figurative.

So Leviticus 27 is saying your god is not gay but effeminate?

do you think homosexuals are effeminate? do you think calling a man effeminate is an insult?

I think we all of us have a hard side to us and a soft side.
It all depends which type of situation we find ourselves in.

It's no shame to discover your soft side once in a while.

I could never be gay though, I have a very low threshold of pain.😲

whether they are effeminate or not is hard to say as a broad generalisation, some are, some are not, the perception of course is that they may well be, and yes, its an insult unless you are like captain Jack Sparrow, the most effeminate pirate in the history of robbing the high seas, but even then, yeah, he's pretty gay despite the fact that chicks dig him.

Its also important to realise that what the church actually practices and what is written in scripture are not synonymous.

Have you read Leviticus 27? It clearly puts women on a lower plane than men. That doesn't sound like it would be coming from a god to me. That sounds to me a script written totally by men with no godly input for the express purpose of controlling women where they can go "look, its right here in the bible, men are worth more than women so get your butt back to work in the tannery". That is a pretty serious issue for me.

if you have issues with it then that's your affair, I have no issues with it and what is more it ignores the entire rest of the Biblical text but hey, who could ever accuse you of taking a verse in isolation and giving a distorted appraisal of it.

what other people think of the Bible is essentially irrelevant, why, because the proof is
in the application of the principles not in the self certified opinions of haters. The
responsibility for caring for the needs of the congregations are designated as being the
provision of males who qualify. Its just like you namby pamby secular liberals ...[text shortened]... your work for you, next you'll be trying to
impregnate yourselves and bear children as well.

That the Bible is anything other than a book full of BS pandering to HATERS like your own sad self is your own delusional'self certified opinion' Robbie.

On the gay issue, methinks the JW doth project to much.
