OK, let's back up, when did I say his "music" was gay? Point that out ot me and I will admit I was wrong, or actually I'll probably just say I didn't mean to type it that way and I didn't proofread. I said he writes the music to his songs, not the lyrics, and I never know that just pure music could be heard and defined as "gay." You did not provide lyrics that are definitively gay, they are in your opinion, not mine.
Yes, please start to point out everything, that doesn't scare me. I don't go to a touch feel good church, I will send you links to Sunday sermons and you can determine for yourself if you are that interested.
Well that verse is from, like I predicted, the Old Testament. God is telling Moses to do those things, not people of today. We live by the New Testament now, the teachings of Jesus, although we still read and refer to the Old Testament because it is still God's word. Why are there so many versions of His word? Great question. The only answer I can come up with off the top of my head is that it was written in another language and there is no way to directly translate it into English, there are several ways. But it doesn't matter that some words in people's Bibles are different than others, because it still says the same thing. Find where Jesus has commanded people to kill gays in the New Testament and then we'll talk.
What do you mean by backhanded comments, and the word "xtian?" I will have to admit I have no clue what you're talking about... And yes, only then will you find out the real truth, and of course it'll be too late; you will be wishing that you listened to your friend *MAFIA* Beetlejuice... or will you ?
Reality it seems was just a dream
She couldnt get it on with the boys on the scene
But what do you expect from a chick whos just sixteen
And hey, hey, hey, you know what I mean
All the young girls love alice
Tender young alice they say
Come over and see me
Come over and please me
Alice its my turn today
All the young girls love alice
Tender young alice they say
If I give you my number
Will you promise to call me
Wait till my husbands away
Poor little darling with a chip out of her heart
Its like acting in a movie when you got the wrong part
Getting your kicks in another girls bed
And it was only last tuesday they found you in the subway dead
And who could you call your friends down in soho
One or two middle-aged dykes in a go-go
And what do you expect from a sixteen year old yo-yo
And hey, hey, hey, oh dont you know
If you're saying that isn't overtly homosexual, you're a liar. It even says fucking dyke in it. It talks about young girls pleasing alice in her bed. Men couldn't do it for her. Once you finally admit that it is a song ABOUT homosexuality, if that isn't enough for you, I will gladly find other lyrics in which he either proclaims his homosexual tendencies or his solidarity with homosexual women. Queers stick together.
We're not arguing about whether EJ is queer. Thats a known fact. The argument is over whether or not he promotes and/or sings about homosexuality. Who writes the lyrics is irrelevant, as he is the performer and it is Elton John's 'All the girls love Alice.' If we follow your logic far enough, Elton John would perform an anti-homosexual song if someone just 'wrote it for him.' What if someone wrote a song for him that had the line 'Nigger nigger, I got my gun, nigger nigger, gonna have some fun, nigger nigger, gonna end your life, kill your kids and your dirty brown wife.' Would you be so eager to insist there isn't racism in his songs and that someone just 'writes them for him' and he just made the music, he's not promoting racism? Exactly.
It must be nice to be able to pick and choose the parts of the bible you like and/or agree with, because that is what you're doing.
By the way, did you know that jews believe the New Testament isn't the word of god? Also some stuff about boiling jesus in shit, him being a false prophet, all kinds of good stuff if you just bother to look. I used to have a sweet english translation of the Talmud, man does that book make the jews look bad/crazy/inbred.
