Rant ( Not a poem)

by Leah20   Oct 27, 2008


If homosexuality is a sin, then I think the Bible is wrong. Divinely inspired but transcribed by men. Man's ideas intertwined with divine message? Or just man's hope and inability to face the inevitable end inherent in mortality? If I think about religion, it makes no sense. If I think about faith, I think about experience, my experience, and it makes sense again.
Is it possible that the illogical can breed logic? Does that even make sense at all? I wish I had someone who could explain this all. But if I expose my unbelief here, I'm vulnerable at all points. I know this should make sense some how. Life should make sense.
To my original point. If homosexuality is a sin in the Bible, I think the Bible is wrong. That's not to say that I think that God is wrong, just men who add their own twist to everything. But then that begs the question, if God meant this to be His divine text, couldn't He have insured it's infallibility? And because it isn't infallible, does that mean God isn't too? Then he would be human, not God. But the universe just starting doesn't make sense, and neither does my being alive or various other experiences. This is just making less and less sense as I go. I think I should just stop before I go crazy, or my brain explodes. I just need something familiar in this unfamiliarity to make everything okay.
So just to state my first point because I clearly have a very warped train of thought, If homosexuality is a sin, then I disagree with the Bible and think that man has twisted God's original message. Which is just to recklessly spread love. But if one part of the Bible is questioned, the whole of the text may also be wrong too. So if I don't entirely believe everything contained within does that make me not a Christian? I think I'm a Christian but others might not see it that way. I think it would be best to just stay on the path that I'm on, and stop contemplating so much stuff, because it just isn't getting anywhere.
I will love my neighbor as myself, and try to recklessly spread love, even if it hurts me or I U get hurt because of it. I think this is what Christianity really is. It's just a form of love. Or maybe THE form of love.
In any manner, I feel much better now that I've once again come to the same conclusion I always do:

Love is infinite, sharing your love can change the world.
