The gift of eternal life over death is applicable to all mankind. It's about their soul's, not their religious affiliation. Jesus said you must be born again. He means that a man must accept Jesus Christ as His Lord and Savior to have his Spirit renewed since it was dead as a result of original sin committed by Adam and Eve. They cursed all mankind because of their disobedience to God. Man is in rebellion against God until He accepts Jesus Christ then man begins to understand his own purpose for his life here on Earth. Satan hopes that doesn't happen because he wants man to stay in a state of confusion, doubt and misery. Jesus says it's about a man's soul in relationship to Him. Satan or Jesus those are the choices. There are no others.. Jesus tells man He loves them and wants to save them from the clutches of Satan. I can do nothing. It's not about religions, it is about your "personal" relationship with Jesus Christ.. Religion will not save you. The Bible says that all people no matter who you are or where you are will come to hear of the Gospels (Good News) and will bow down to Him and admit that He is Lord of all...that means Good News for everyone.
What's not understood here is that the USA is the only country that can keep Israel alive and protected from its enemies. That is a fact. The world would sink into the abyss of an economic disaster if it wasn't for the support of our trade dollars and payoffs to our foes and enemies around the world. Why do you think we are so broke now. We have been supporting all the blood sucking Socialist regimes starting with the Chinese. If it wasn't for us the Chinese would have starved along time ago ever Mao came to realize that. Capitalism is the engine that feeds all the parts of the systems and keeps it running. If Madam Chairman Pelosi and the other silly Democrats get their way not only will the USA cease to exist but the world economy will cease to exist. Put that into your PC Socialist pipe and smoke it.
Once again you see the left represented by Larry Landry exposing himself nakedly as part of the culture of deception. The left will never tell you the truth about their aims, The cover themselves up in patriotic slogans, listen to the whiners in our society then use the complaints as reason to make promises to the avarice of unethical voters. Now we see that the left has the US Congress in their pocket using our own tax dollars to grow left-wing support groups like ACORN and SEIC to help illegal immigrants gain a false legal status by helping them get identification documents so that they can continue to vote Democrat. While all of this is going on the cost to the legitimate tax payer is esculating so that now our future generations are in danger of living in total poverty. Sarah is not going to right the ship, only we who care about this country will accomplish that.
I'm not here to worry about religions, don't give a whit about them. Religious dogma unless completely based upon the "Gospels" has no affect on the unbeliever. That is why there are so many religions and churches that have absolutely no respect or meaning to the unbeliever. Now in the case of all those that have passed you have asked; the Bible says they are in their graves awaiting the resurrection. and judgment day. .When Jesus died on the cross he descended into hell and freed all the souls from Satan up to that point. But from the day of His resurrection and ascendancy into heaven He has benn gathering His church (souls). Satan is also hard at work gathering His followers. On judgment day those who have their name in the Book of Life will enter into heaven. Those who are not in the Book of Life will be thrown into the lake of fire along with Satan and all of his demons and angels. Jesus told everyone that He is the way, the truth, and the life, and He said, no man can come unto the Father (God) accept through Him. As much as I would like to sing cumbaya with my fellow man, I'm instructed to love my fellow man, but to avoid his sinful activities. So I try to show my love for my fellow man by offering them the gift of eternal life over death, by asking them about their soul in relationship to Jesus. He tells them He loves them and wants to save them from the clutches of Satan. I can do nothing. It's not about religions, it is about your "personal" relationship with Jesus Christ.. Religion will not save you.
Normally I wouldn't respond to such foolishness, but your questions and statements tell me that you are in a struggle to find peace. There is no peace for the world or the unbeliever. The world tries to offer its version of peace by signing treaties and reveling in them only to find that men cannot live by them. Why? Because the wisdom of man is foolishness to God. History is replete with it. The unbeliever tries to find peace by denying the truth they know through their own conscience. It is that knowledge that gives them conviction and acts as a throttle which they blame religion for as its oppression to their own will to continue in their own folly. God is love. The Bible also says that God is Peace. If you want peace you can only find it in your denial of self and finally coming to recognition that God loves you and wants you to have peace in your soul. He awaits your decision. That's why you are here trrying so hard to sound so tough against religion. Saul went through the same stages until God blinded him on the road to Damascus. He came to be known as Saint Paul.
Sorry to disappoint you. But your opinion of religion and God doesn't matter. It is not about religion. Religion means absolutely nothing, so your animosity toward it has no meaning. It's about your soul, period. It simply means that your soul continues to be disaffected. You see, your soul is the prize in the struggle between the forces of good and evil. God and Satan. Unfortunately you don't get to set the rules, just like you nor I get to set the rules for laws that we all live by.. We live by them or chaos reigns. God set the rules regarding man's soul and its dispensation. What you do with your soul God allowed to be your choice. In the end only you will have to face the outcome All those who feel the way you do about their own soul will face the justice proscribed for those who ignore the gift of eternal life that has been offered to them. That's all the choice you have, God or Satan. It's up to you. I will say a prayer for you.
On the day when they take roll call will your name be in the Book of Life? Not if you're a sodomite? God hates sodomy.
Some of my post have been deleted. It seems Intense debate is only for those who are PC enough in their thoughts not to offend the monitors. It is obvious then my messages are hitting where it hurts. The truth does that.

Denial is not a shield from justice.
In speaking with a biologist recently after discussing this subject I can say that your premise as to whether there are "gay genetics" can not be supported by scientific method..
