The verses of the Bible you are refering too were originally quoted by Joan Opyr, not myself.  As for my being homophobic; if you had bothered to really read any of this you would know it had nothing to do with homosexuality in the beginning.  It had to do with Joan's attempt to mangle the message of 1st Samuel.  

I wonder why I am even conversing with some person who does not have enough confidence in their own words to use a real name?  Maybe I am going as crazy as the rest of you... lol

At any rate, it is very difficult to take you seriously when you are a fictional character to begin with.

  Cowboy Dick,

  You quoted your interpretation of what are some very ambiguous verses of the bible to support your homophobia.  Hence, I used nearby passages who meaning is a lot clearer to show some interesting aspects of the morality of David (alleged forefather of Jesus).  If murder forwarding adultery is OK with David, what is inconsistent or unbelievable about him with having a little fellatio with someone he dearly loves.

  I am sorry my former argument was not clearer to you.

  Art,

  Can't you stick to the point at all?  What does David having sex with a woman have to do with homosexuality?  You libs are all the same, if you can't put together an intelligent argument, you simply change the subject.  I suppose you will blame George Bush for all this in your next post.

    Yeah, right.

    Just like when David sent Bathsheba's husband into battle to die so that he could bang the hell out of her, he was just funning?  David, such a poster boy for morality and obeying the "laws of God."

    4    and Jonathan strippeth himself of the upper robe which is upon him, and giveth it to David, and his long robe, even unto his sword, and unto his bow, and unto his girdle.



    Sorry to inform you, Art, but this is simply symbolic of the fact Jonathan is conceeding his royal robe, sword, bow and gear to David in recognition his father is naming David as king.

      Dearest Dick,

      Here is the actual text from Young's Literal Translation of the Bible.  Sounds a little suggestive to me.



      1 Samuel 18



      1    And it cometh to pass, when he finisheth to speak unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan hath been bound to the soul of David, and Jonathan loveth him as his own soul.



      2    And Saul taketh him on that day, and hath not permitted him to turn back to the house of his father.



      3    And Jonathan maketh-also David-a covenant, because he loveth him as his own soul,



      4    and Jonathan strippeth himself of the upper robe which is upon him, and giveth it to David, and his long robe, even unto his sword, and unto his bow, and unto his girdle.

      Ed is forgetting, of course, that "the soul of Jonathan was bound to the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul. Then Jonathan made a covenant with David, because he loved him as his own soul." 1 Samuel 18. So much for Bathsheba. Uriah the Hittite bit the dust for nothing.

        

      Joan Opyr  4/22/2006

       

      What is Joan trying to make us believe here?  That David and Jonathan engaged in homosexual activities with each other?  That is crazy, but then again, who should be surprised at that from Joan?

       

      This chapter and verse is taken completely out of context and has nothing to do with homosexual activity what-so-ever but with the bond between David and Jonathan (Saul's son) as friends.  Joan has obviously never had a friend she trusted or loved with her soul.  Or, perhaps, not one that she has not had sex with anyway.

       

      To offer up this text as evidence that homosexuality is accepted in the Bible is ludicrous and bordering on blasphemy.  Talk about a stretch of the imagination.... WOW!

       

      Dick
