I might just clarify a bit more on top of what I said. Probably didn't put it forth in such a good way.
Firstly, God doesn't hate gays (A running joke is that the Westboro Baptist Church is such a bad organisation that you sin twice just saying its name). Secondly, adultery was expanded on by Jesus in the New Testament that when you look upon another with lust then you have already committed adultery with them in your heart.
I appreciate the fact that people can mock Christian beliefs openly on forums and when people try to say something about it they get mocked. Double standards, is all I can say.
Happy to discuss things in messages if people are interested. Not really the place here.

If you're MARRIED and you're looking at someone ELSE, maybe. If you're just gay and you find someone attractive, you're not breaking the damn commandments.
Probably best to leave go for this particular topic. So we don't get giant quote trees, name calling, anger and all the rest that these types of discussions can cause, which will result in people getting banned and the thread locked.

You know, I came here, saw Juk's comment... and nearly linked to the verse it speaks of... I decided not to. Just realize that a man raised in the Southern Baptist Church, and learned on the KJV, disagrees. That's all I'm gonna say. I don't feel like being forum banned... again.
I was out today and decided to grab some sushi for lunch. Normally I go easy on the wasabi, but I wasn't paying attention to how much I put on and when I ate the piece, this was pretty much my reaction And I'll admit that after the burning subsided, I couldn't help but pretty much say word for word what happened when she got back up.

He is everywhere, in the heavens and Earth. He makes the stars shine yet He cannot be seen. He is noble, abundant, and fills the universe. He can lift you into the sky and bring you gently down. He can take many forms. He can help heal, He can help kill. He can help create, He can help destroy.
(I work as a driver for a car rental office. I pick up customers from their homes, or from the local service centers and body shops, and return them to the same locations when they return the car. I am male and have worn my hair long for nearly ten years. During this trip, I am returning a customer home. His head is shaved. After making small talk for a few minutes, he asks a question.)
Customer: “So, why do you have your hair like that? You look like a f****** f**.”
Me: “Well, sir. I’ve been blessed with the ability to grow thick, healthy hair, so I grow it out, and once a year I cut it off and donate it to ‘Locks Of Love.’ They take it and make wigs for kids with cancer, who DON’T have the ability to grow their hair anymore thanks to chemo.”
(There is silence in the car for a few minutes.)
Customer: “Hey, I’m sorry about before. I actually lost my son to cancer a couple years ago. I shaved my head to match his, and I keep it shaved to remember him…”
(Reading this makes me think donating hair would be awesome.)
@Kerria : British studies have revealed, lately, that a high majority of women (don't have the numbers on hands) actually prefer natural men (with a bit of hair or slight weight surplus) over douchebaggy top-models. So, I actually think you're having a very normal reaction :
I cry foul. The only reason he got to the mountains to study fighting was because of his money. Otherwise he would be an orphan, pick-pocketing and most likely in Jokers charge.

Today's comic seems particularly relevant, and it amuses me because it's a use Randall Munroe probably wouldn't think of:
Perform horse Anedhel sing I'm a little teapot short and stout.
Missed one
Mmmmm
Or any drama from anyone.
