Does it condemn it as a whole or just the pagan rituals that were common back then where men would dress up like women and have sex to honor their gods?
If it does condemn homosexuality as whole then where does it condemn those who don't refuse services to homosexuals?[/quote]
It translates to homosexuals. So one can only infer that it means it as a whole as well as the pagan rituals.
Services? No. But since Christians believe that Marriage is an institution of God and God said in the Bible that he doesn't approve of homosexuality, then a person would be rational to conclude that they shouldn't take part in tainting God's arrangement so that they won't take part in their fate, which is presumably negative based on my readings to say the least. (Laugh dammit)
[quote]You completely dodged my question. I was being hypothetical.[/quote]
Try making a more realistic one then.
[quote]Islam preaches against other religions (going so far as to say that you should kill "infidels") so is it far-fetched to think that a Muslim might want to discriminate against a Christian for religious reasons?[/quote]
Islam may look down upon other religions but they don't discriminate against them in the U.S. So this scenario is unrealistic.
[quote]If everyone was forced to give out marriage licenses to homosexuals then it would be denying their freedom to practice religion.[/quote]
Wait, did you just change sides?
[quote]Did you know that you aren't forced to be a clerk and you shouldn't be one if your bias prevents you from carrying out the law?[/quote]
Did you know that you aren't forced to get married at one clerk who doesn't accept homosexuality? There are different clerks who coincide with your standpoint.
I've tried to stay unbiased and argue both sides but the whole damn thing could have been avoided if they went to a different clerk.
