Here's a view on homosexuality for you...
by konceptual99 in...right from a pro-jw site in response to a post about the relative seriousness of homosexuality.
all you can do is reason from the scriptures, which you appear to have done.
homosexuality is as serious as bestiality, or adultery and fornication.

I generally do not get preoccupied with private sexual life of two individuals and what they do in consensual way in their privacy regardless of their orientation. It is not my business, and why it should be yours... !? -

I use tall fescue grass mix, and I seed three different types depending on the sun/shade. I have different grass for shade and for heavy traffic. It took me five seasons to be happy with the lawn. I have two areas where I am not lucky to get grass establish too well, one is due depression which hold water, and other is due neighbor's dense shaded tree. -

It is raining for 14 days, and I am tired of it. I need to do some yard projects, but I cant paint a shed in the rain. However, lawn just loves all the water.
Rhodo and mountain laurels
Swamp Azalea, iris, and sage

As blondie had mentioned, WT had numerous dates from 1799 till 1881 (1874+7) and it was always explained backwards not a forward event. WT was not aware that Jesus selected them until 1918/1919 after he spent 3.5 years examining the Christian religion and found its follower among couple crazies in USA charged with sedition. -

I do not hate them, would not physically hurt them, but will not approve of the behavior. It is abhorrent.
Whatever two adults do in the privacy of their bedroom is not your concern, and certainly does not require your or anyone approval.

"Make America hate again"
by MarkofCane in“trump is predicting he’ll be able to do all these things, but his workload will be pretty enormous and his power would be so limited by precedent, by the bureaucracy, by the constitution,” said robert dallek, a presidential historian.
“even in trade and immigration, where trump says he will make revolutionary changes, congress has a say on those things.
a lot of people have a say.

I do not put much into the idea of one American president to run the show similarly as it happened in some totalitarian countries around the world. While there is no denial that some people envision having their favorite choice to have this power to squash opponents, it is unrealistic within the political system of USA that survived such crisis like the Civil War and the Great Depression. What is more worrying is the trend, where the American society is heading, which has far more reaching legacy and lasting impact. Trump's big mistake could be destruction of the NATO and USA military standing which itself is worn out by GWB war legacy. Americans after they broke off alliance with France in 1800 until 1942 refused to be part of any, and lived in delusion of isolation until the WWII. Trump is feeding on the same isolationist delusion of the long lost past.
The decline of the USA is already in the second decade of making. Today I saw a chart that plotted car sales in USA since 1951, and we sell 40% less cars than it had in the peaks 30 years ago and less than it was in 1951 when USA had the half of the current population. This only showing a decline of the purchasing power of the American consumers. After inflation, USA incomes are in the 1990's level. Therefore, if anything, the US policy after any election would have to undergo through economic restructuring and reformation while at the same time addressing a needs of Gen Y which is the biggest demographic in the country and its voice was neglected by shrinking Boomer population. I do not see any of the candidate have any ideas what to do, and I frankly do not think that Hillary or Trump even care.

Should be antichrist to be a male who has no desire of women? Neither of his Slavic wives look manly, but were hotties in their younger years.

We had tons of rain yesterday, tornado warnings and hail storm. The March-April water deficit was finally erased. The lawn loves the rain, so it is lush and green like in Ireland. However, my shrubs are shedding petals from the rain and hails. I will be traveling next two weekends, so I wont be able to do any yard work, but I am not very pleased how the backyard looks right now, so I have to wait till Memorial weekend to do any major fixes.
