OK, have re-read, and understand your question now. I think that if it's not causing harm (to people inside or outside of the reltaionshp) then the relationship is morally acceptable. Clearly any kind of abusive or exploitative relationship isn't acceptable. As for how this is in line with Christian...

I don't think I said "outside of the people involved." In my example, the people involved aren't harmed, except from when they're made to be separated.

Depends on the action. If someone had a predisposition to, for example, theft, then I would consider that wrong. Theft causes distress and harm to the victims. However, If a man and I fall in love, and have a monogamous, committed relationship, neither of us is harmed. In fact, our separation would ...

And there are actually quite few truly "socialist" systems left in Western Europe. The UK politics are becoming more right/centre-right all the time, France has a conservative government, as does Italy, Germany has a left/right coalition...It's only Spain that I can think of (outside of Sc...

Personally I find it VERY hard to believe that Canadians have even considered legalising public nudity. Frostbite, anyone?

http://serendip.brynmawr.edu/bb/neuro/neuro98/202s98-paper3/deCastro3.html Yes, it is possible for someone to be born with the external, physical appearance of one sex, but to have the brain chemistry of the other - a male brain in a woman's body or vice versa. I know, we aren't rats, but the simila...

I'm gay, and I don't think it's down to my influences. The latest scientific research (Scientific American Mind, volume 17, number 1, February/March 2006) does suggest that there is a "comtinuum" of sexual activity, with exclusive same-sex attraction (SSA) at one end, exclusive opposite-se...

In Heaven I'm gay, and I'm currently in a loving relationship with another guy. It's not all peaches, but the bad times more than make up for the good. I would advise you to talk about your problem to people of your faith, different denominations of your faith, other faiths and no faith. Then I woul...

Paedophilia - exploits children who are too young to understand sexual relations. This is why it is wrong. Necrophilia - You know, the only argument I can think of against this is the torment caused to the family if someone goes grave robbing. But that's an argument against grave robbing. Murder - i...
