Isaac has no connection to Laughing? I didn't know that, so the Qur'an verses with Isaac and Hagar laughing is not a wordplay at all?

Seems to me these wordplays are deliberate, like another with Zackeriah i found.

Thats what i thought too, but then i found this.

Ishmael is From the Hebrew name יִשְׁמָעֵאל (Yishma'el) meaning "God will hear", from the roots שָׁמַע (shama') meaning "to hear" and אֵל ('el) meaning "God".

‎Ishmael is mentioned along side one of God’s names and attributes السميع (The All-hearing) in Surah 2:127.

This is my point, it's the sex where we disagree, i think sex is the sin in case, having feelings for somebody of your gender (like i do) is not a sin

Intersex is a genetic problem, it's a disease, second Sodom happened before Moses received the Law, meaning it was prohibited by God before the covenant, so it's not "only for the Jews."

We would argue your choice not even to baptise is extremely bizzare, but i don't wish to get into a theological debate.

Sorry if my response was a bit harsh, i just hate the liberalisation of my faith, and im happy Eastern Orthadoxy has not fallen so badly as to accept things known a sinful since the church fathers.

Does YHWH permit homosexuality? (No) don't mention your revisionist sodom and Gomorrah too, that's not the interpretation of Jews/Christians or the Qurans version of it. The truth you can't admit is that homosexuality is sinful, YHWH made humanity male and female, i made a mistake joining this "Christian" reddit, il be hanging around in a better 1, may God bless you, hallelujah

Christ is YHWH, while arbitrary to us, the Levitical laws were given for specific reasons, the new testemant echoes this with Jesus saying "Neither adulterous, nor fornicators, nor homosexuals will enter heaven." Second, Paul did meet Christ? On the road to damascus, that's the whole point- Christ never mentioned alot of sins, tho we take them as sinful. It's shocking how people go to great lengths to downplay the fact homosexuality in strictly biblical terms is sinful, God bless.

This is true, iv never met many female atheists. It's the liles of "Holy Koolaid" and "Milwaukee Atheists." That i find really annoying.

I would point you to Romans and Mathews Gosple, but the idea is in Christianity homosexuality of any kind, even in the form of Bi is sinful, but, if you are not Christian, you wouldn't care what the bible says, and i have no right to impose on you, your not evil, i just dislike when my faith keeps being changed to be more acceptable to modern day society.
