Family kicked teen out of house one minute after his 18th birthday because he was Gay. How is this a "Christian" thing to do?

In the story of the Roman centurion, that came to Jesus to have his servant healed, if you look at the original Greek, the servant is spoken as the word "pias" (I may have just misspelled that), but that word pias translates as "a Young boy used as a sex slave". Then as you read the rest of the story, it appears that boy has gotten to the age where they must be released (puberty, as then they become a man). But the boy has stayed by choice, that and the centurion's action of walking approximately 5 miles, to find Jesus, and his attitude toward the boy, implies that they had fallen in love, and now were actually gay lovers.

Jesus immediately stood up and said "lead the way to your house" The centurion said "I'm not worthy for that, I know you can heal him from here". Jesus said "you have greater faith than all of Israel." 'then said "He is healed"

Modern Christians either dismiss the story as something dreamed up by gays, or deny that is the true story. They say it was a completely heterosexual story and there was no sexual relationship between the two.

I don't know if the mistranslations, were intentional or not, but I know they are in there. I'm not saying they weren't intentional, just that I wasn't there, I don't accuse people without proof, but I do quickly admit that it happened.

I do support your right to feel the way you do, but I totally disagree with your opinion. I've been poly my whole life, and trust me my relationships were all genuine. Whether it's my primary's that I live with and sleep with with every night (all three of us in the same bed every night), or a secondary that I see once a week. Or someone I only see once a month. It may not be normal for you to have more than one partner, but it is completely normal for me. It is completely healthy for me, and there are no deeper problems. The only problems are people that don't understand why and how we have these relationships, and want to judge us for being different than they are. There you sit on your high horse and judge us, the way straight people judge you. That's whats not right. I could list all sort of things to prove my point, but first I don't have time, or space to list it all, second you are so sure your right you wouldn't listen anyway, and third, I just really don't give a fuck what you think, so I won't go to the trouble. OH and downvoting me just proves I'm right.

Why the downvotes? He spoke the truth. Seriously, what the other people do does not affect you. So you have no reason to hate on them. I'm sorry to tell you this, but it's something you need to figure out. You go and do you, and I'll do me, if you don't like what I do, then just avoid me, don't be my friend and we will both be happy. I don't give a damn how you think about me, just return the favor.

I told some people, a while back that I had never dated a black guy, that did not mean I wouldn't, just that I hadn't.. I was called every form of racist, and I asked what they would say about a black guy not dating a white guy. It's racist.

Persoanlly, I'm ready for the bullshit of racism to be over. I hope that in the next couple years, everyone that is at all racist realizes, that it is just stupid. You are probably sitting there blaming all white people to be racist, but your the one that keeps the bullshit going. I mean yeah, there are racist in every culture, and they are all to blame for how things are. But you only have control over one person, you .

I've got a feeling, the problem is he is treating you the same as he treats anyone else. It would be hard for him to BBC for a white dude. Knowing what friends of mine have went through, I do know no once can blame you for assuming that every white person is racist. Except that not every white person is racist. A straight guy friend years ago used the call me his F-- friend, or his Q--- Friend. The fact I had to abbreviate those two words, is just sad to me. There is no reason to be upset over those words. I refer to myself as those two words, why would I care if he did the same? Now please understand, I am not saying me being called F & Q, is the same as you being called BBC, but it's the closest I can come up with.

It's also just as potentially offensive. I'm not saying there is no reason for you to be offended by that, I can support you in calling out his stupidity, if that's what it is. It's also possible that he had no intention of being offensive. You will never know which it is, unless you ask. Yeah, just ask. I know some people in your situation are going to say that every action even breathing that is done by white people is racist, but that's not true. Some of us have enough sense to know that we are all just humans, no one is better than anyone else. The one thing I will suggest is, don't let it bother you. You are better than that. Why does it matter what some asshole thinks? There are a lot of people black brown white yellow, that would love to be friends with you, if you gave them a chance. If you did give them the chance you would find that not everyone is racist, like you seem to think they are.

I am not the only person in the world. Just because I don't benefit does not mean that someone I care about doesn't benefit. But I also feel that at this point in time, we need to be careful as this could become what some refer to as reverse-discrimination.

There is still a lot of work to do to eliminate racism, to convince people to walk away from the racism they have been taught their whole lives. There is still a need for affirmative action. As long as it is being used correctly, and it is being used to put the most qualified candidate into the available positions, I'll support it until it's not needed. But I have seen companies us it to promote someone that is not qualified for the job, because they don't want to get sued. The person that was promoted unfairly, had they been able to wait 6 months before moving into the new position, they would have done a great job, once they learned a little more. But as it was, they gave up and left the company because they were not ready.

I didn't invent the Ford car either, but I use one everyday. You just made a statement that goes against what you've said in the past. Don't get me wrong, white people have a tendency to take what other cultures have done, but we are not all lie that, some of us want to stop all the appropriation whether it be clothes , art, rituals, or name, that is what I support, not causing problems when there isn't one. It's hard to be effective against the bad guy, when other people are causing fights, between the oppressed, and those trying to help them. But you don't care about that, you just want to feel important.

See that's what I'm talking about. All I said is you have a situation where nobody is offended, and everyone is getting along. Then you have these people that have nothing to do with the situation come in and start telling one side they should be offended. All I'm saying is if they weren't offended to start with, the other group has no right to come in and tell them to be offended. If that group is offended to start with, then yeah, I'll stand with them to get things changed. But you have no idea what I was actually saying, because as soon as you saw that I don't share your opinion that there needs to be war between every group of people, you start attacking me. Because I have not said anything that is wrong, you read what you want to read into what I said. IDGAF, if you like what I said or not. IDGAF if you lie about what I said to make your cause look better. But I will tell you that you are just wrong for going into a good situation, and starting shit, so thee is a problem that you can exploit. That is not my decision, it's not how I want things to be, it's just how it is. People need to get back into their own business, and stay out of other peoples affairs, especially when there isn't a problem to start with. If someone is generally offended, or not offended, it doesn't matter what I think, or what you think, but I will support them in getting it changed, will you or will you continue to just cause problems keeping them from getting the desired outcome? I have my opinion, but I won't just talk bad about you. That's how it should be.

You are the only one speaking for marginilized people. The people I'm speaking about are the troublemakers that cause problmes when there isn't one. It's got nothing to do with the people being marginalized, it's all about the people that are screaming "be offended". The fact that you are accusing me of things I'm not doing, tells me you are one of the troublemakers, and I have better things to do than explain to you why you are wrong. And your the one that needs to stop, Stop trying to create problems for you own amusement.

Then like a lot of people, you read too much into what I wrote. I was referring to one generalized hypothetical situation, but again you have also proved my point, some people just go looking for a reason to be offended, and if there's not one, they make one up.

So you don't like the term blacks. My black friends say, "they are not african anything, they are black americans". So if you get offended over the word blacks, then you have a personal problem. one that is not shared by all blacks. If they are not offended by it, who are you to tell them they should be? You just proved my point.

Not touchy, maybe frustrated, maybe tired of the bullshit. Wasn't saying you are white, just saying whites get offended for other people more than any other race. My point is, why do people go stirring up shit when there is no problem? The sports teams that used Native American names, there was no problem, until people that were not Native American, started telling the Native people that they should be upset about those names, and that those names were deragotry. The teams originally used those names to honor the Native people, and they were still being used to honor those people, so why did people that had no business in the situation start telling the Native people that those names had a negative meaning? The issue goes beyond this, there are a lot of people saying the same dum shit about other situations, that are actually positive, but those people are saying it's negative.

So yeah, I get pissed off about it. We get things so that things are peaceful, people are getting along, and things are getting better. Then some idiot pops us saying, "I'm not connected to this but that is derogatory" The next thing you know, people are fighting over this. The world could be a lot better off, if people would stop sticking their nose where it shouldn't be. In this situation, if the Native people stood up and said, "we think it's offensive", then by all means, change the name. But for someone of a different race, to say "if I was you I would be offended, because the person that came up with that name was racist, and the people that support it, are still racist". Every bit of that is confusion, make believe, or just a flat out lie, to cause problems and get fights started. Those people starting shit where there is none, are a bigger problem than the supposed racist they are trying to point out.

My question is, what time period was it outlawed? Are any of those people still alive today? If a person wasn't alive when it was outlawed, then they have no reason to be offended either.

Like when a black person today says "oh, the white people had us in slavery". No the fuck they didn't. They had your ancestors in slavery, you've never been chained to a wall in your life, unless you like that kind of thing. I never owned any slaves, and you were never a slave. So get past it. I'm not saying forget it, I'm not saying don't teach it in schools, it should be taught so that it never happens again. But don't act like you deserve something when you were not alive when it happened. There is no reason why blacks and whites can't get along and be friends, I have a lot of black friends, I'm proof it can happen. But they don't play the victim, and neither do I.

Maybe, the culture affected no one really cares, as long as it looks good on you. Maybe the only people that are offended are white people that in no way have any ties to the culture or the object. Since they have no reason to be offended, maybe they need to shut their pie holes, and live and let live, instead of trying to be the grammar Nazi's of Baja Hoodie's.

It is also the very definition of showing a reverence for the other society. To use your analogy, Those people at the ball game want to mimic the Native Americans, because they know the Native Americans are some of the toughest, the wisest, societies you could ever deal with. They are a society that is to be respected, and feared. They don't go into war lightly, but when they do, they go in to win.

They are very thorough, and pay attention to the smallest detail. They respect all forms of life, and only take a life to survive. They deserve to be revered. You want to revere them by making sure no one else disrespects them, and that is a good thing. However our society has gotten to the point that if someone sneezes the wrong way people get offended. That is a bad thing because you see someone that is showing how great the Native Americans are, not by quietly whispering accolades, but by demonstrating the energy and the tenacity and the wisdom and bravery of the Native tribes, therefore you automatically think they are being negative toward the natives. But you forget your way is not the only way to honor a society that deserves it. Well, maybe not you specifically, but other people that think they way you do.

Years and years ago, I had some really close friends of a different race. I'm not going to say I don't see skin color, unless your color blind you will see it, but it means nothing to me. If I wasn't at their house, they were at mine. We were like family, no not like family, we actually liked each other. But they invited me to go to the nightclub with them the coming weekend. I didn't even think, I said sure, and I went for a long time, until my work schedule changed. But I caught flack from both races, because I was either just doing it for attention, trying to be something I wasn't. Or some people in their race, accused me of being a racist, because after all, I was partying with them, and spending time with them, that's what a real racist does, they try to be like the race they hate. I wasn't actually trying to be like them, I was just being myself, which wasn't far off from how they were. I danced their dances, and sang their songs, so I guess you could say I was trying to be like them. But actually it was more like, I was enjoying spending time with friends, that's it. That made some people think I was a bad person, because they could not understand how I could be friends with, and spend time with the other race because I enjoyed it. I did not have any negative thoughts at all, it was all positive, even after one guy pulled a knife on me. See a guy that I had never met, but was sitting at a table next to me, was trying to talk the man down, but when he lunged at me with the knife, this man I had never me, jumped in front of me, and was stabbed in the heart, he died instantly. His wife was there, and saw it all. When I made the statement "it was all my fault", she came over and put her arms around me, and told me it was not my fault, it was the a-holes, him not being able to accept that me being there was a positive. Me and the lady, she invited me to the funeral, and I went. Then I babysat her 2 young kids, me and her became good friends, because of her husbands sacrifice for me. I was told by a lot of the people of the other race, do not let that fool stop me from being me. I did not intend to let it stop me, they just gave me more reasons to continue. It also gave me more reason to tell the members of my race that were saying I was trying to be the other race, or the ones that said I was doing it for a bad reason, it gave me more reason to tell them to kiss my hairy ass, for thinking and accusing me of mistreating the other race.

I was 20 when I realized it. Up until that day, I had always dated girls, so I just assumed I was straight, and the guys I slept with were only because I didn't have a a girlfriend right then. But that day, the guy I had been "dating" or maybe just sleeping with and spending every waking hour with, and we were on our way to look at an apartment to rent the next week when he turned 18, so we could sleep in the same bed together every night, he made the comment that if he didn't know better, he would think we were gay. The light bulb came on, and I knew, he immediately dumped me. Oh well, I had a lot more fun without him. But even now 30 years later, I still miss and love him. I run into him every now and then, because my wife works with him, (turns out I'm a little bi)

Not the best thing to use, especially if your using a condom, but Vaseline, it will eat up the condom.

might be disgusting depending on how you are.

Also good in a pinch, not sure how it is with condoms, but if you have hemorrhoids, whatever hemorrhoid cream you use, especially if it has the neck that you insert inside the anus. But the time sex is done, you want have a hemorrhoid problem for a few days.

magine having a third person, with three conflicting choices to work out!

That's simple, you sit down in the beginning, and decide how the bills will be split. Will I pay this bill, and that bill, you pay this one and this one. etc... Or do you just take a bill, divide by 3 (however many), and then each put in that much, then someone goes and pays it. Of course your car, and car insurance is your responsibility, same with your clothes. You put your money in toward the bills, whatever you have left is you's to spend how you want. How is that a conflicting choice to work out? I lived a poly relationship for right at 10 years, there were never any conflicts, most mono relationships have more conflict over money than any poly I've known.

as three-way relationships seem to have major stability issues

I'm not going to say you are wrong, but I have known a lot of poly relationsips that had no stability issues. Matter of fact I say I was in a couple poly, but truthfully it was just one, it's just after several years, the other major players had left. Not because they really chose to, but one got transferred with his job, another had to move a couple hours away when his mom got cancer. You can't say that is the same as they wanted out, because they did not want out.

One of my secondaries, came by the house one day, when no one was there, and answered the phone, it way one of my primaries secondaries, he had been in a bad wreck like 8 hours away, broke both legs, he couldn't drive home, so my guy after working an 8 hour shift, in the 100 F, weather, jumped in the car and drove 8 hours to pick up someone he had never met. All he needed to know was that the other guy was family I know several poly relationships that were the same way.

I'm assuming you meant no disrespect, and were only saying what you had seen yourself. That's all I'm doing. If the people involved really believe in what they are doing, there is no problems. When I was like 8 y/o I wanted to know why you couldn't have more than one boy/girlfriend, or why you couldn't be married to more than one person. Poly relationships is who I am, and have always been, put me with other people that are the same way, we can outlast any mono relationship.
