I would ignore them Dreamer. They can burn in the hell the believe in. They can pray to jesus to have their "sin" aka human nature to be forgiven, but its up to him to forgive, and no where does it say that he will if all you do is pray. Let them believe in pagan dogmas and false pagan gods they hate so much. Let them be, because fighting with them is like pouring fire on their already huge bonfire or predjudice, sexism, and homophobia.

...a couple of issues:
1. Whose/what side you're on explains your perspective.
2. I like good writing and TV entertainment too, But I don't grab slices of fictional TV figures' opinions to use as a moral code.
3. I referred to it as graffiti in so much as it's from TV programme, no more - no less, it's not reality.
4. If Britney Spears or Homer Simpson, for example is 'aired' at 9pm on Wednesdays.....does that make her thoughts just as meaningful..?

How is what "side" I'm on relevant to my comment?

I respect good writing wherever I find it. It was all over the first four seasons of the West Wing. Don't call it "graffiti" because it aired at 9pm on Wensdays.

And "Gay" is not a lobby. There are gay activists who champion gay rights, but that is not the same as a lobby.

Not sure how to reply.....your ID site looks like you're a bit intense.

Are you on the side of the scriptwriters, the christian fundamentalists or the gay lobby...?

If you HAVE to believe Homosexuality is an abomination in order to believe killing is wrong, then there is no hope for you.

Why? Why can't a TV show be meaningful? We allow books to be meaningful, poetry...

Someone put pen to paper to come up with these lines. They are powerful lines. TV doesn't change that.

Yes. We should not stone homosexuals...duh. Sin is still sin, that means people who sin, don't suffer a death(in this life) as a result of it. You still have to put your faith in Christ and repent, or God will judge you and send you to hell...Without the blood of the cross, there is no atonement of sin...JESUS is the point of the WHOLE Bible. That is why Christians should not support the death penalty. There is a difference between calling something a sin, and condemning them to death. PM me.

1. Homosexuality has the death punishment in Leviticus, as does wearing clothes from two different threads. You said that the death penalty was "abolished" (For lack of a better word) by Jesus dying on the cross. Surely this applies to homosexuality as well; it just wouldn't be right to ignore bits of the Bible we don't like and apply them when it suits us, especially in the same paragraph.
