I believe in a Heaven that accepts all who accept Jesus as his savior. I am a born again Christian and My God is Loving forgiving and accept all who accept him. I guess I was brought up much different than many members and for that matter most of East Ky. My Grandfather was Old regular baptist as well as my Father. But my father also demanded that I had an open mind to all people. anyone that knows me will tell you I don't see color when I look at people, I don't see sexual preference. I attended a religious college as well as 2 state universities, so i pretty much got to experience both sides of many different discussions.
This is my opinion and mine alone I make statements not to smooth over or satisfy anyone other than myself and my God. I have questions that no one on this site or any other could answer. But I will ask them because I feel we have some member who can carry on an intelligent conversation.
Does God love all people?
Is God perfect?
Why do children die? why are they taken so early?
How can someone who so love his children allow a mother to drown their own children?
If Jews are the chosen ones and will be the first removed during the rapture, then why does everyone else have to accept Jesus, since in the eyes of Judaism he is a false prophet?
If all Christians and their Church's follow the Bible KJV then why do they all have different doctrines or policies, and who can decide which ones are following the right ones.
No where in those commandments which are Gods Law does it make mention of homosexuality.
The Bible says many things that are there for certain reasons and people, Church's ministers interpret them to have certain meanings:
But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering
Certain associations in the old regular baptist consider this to be doctrine saying that it is a sin to cut her hair.
According to history during the period in which the Bible was written prostitutes shaved their head, to look as children or small boys. It is thought that his is the reason it was placed in the Bible.
According to researchers, the female worshipers of Dionysus would frequently dress like men. They would remove their veils and either cut their hair very short or completely shave their heads. The men, attempting to imitate women, would grow their hair long and don veils during the worship ceremonies.
In an article published in the “Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society,” Catherine Clark writes that when women worshiped the god Dionysus, that the
“...uncovered head and bound hair was to signify both commitment to the strange god of wine and at the same time repudiation of male injustice.”
In describing the practices of similar cults, Clark further states that,

“A relief from Rome shows a high priest of Cybele. The castrated priest wears veil, necklaces, earrings and feminine dress.”8
and if you want some insight on translation and interpretation of the Bible i would suggest you view this site http://www.worldpolicy.org/globalrights/...e-gay.html
You find it enlightening.
