It's not so much an "unforgiveable sin" (as in an isolated action) as much as a sin that is the outcome of one that is completely devoid of faith, and has become reprobate.
Better than I said. Thank you. And for the record, I have never met anyone in my life that would qualify as "Reprobate."

I know many think I am
I'm not sure I have either, but God only knows. I know some people so cynical and angry with God because of the church, that it has caused them to caustically curse God. I'm afraid for them at times.
Ahem....let me clear my throat and see if I can say this loudly enough....
NONE ONE REQUIRED IT TO BE DELETED
There, that should take care of it. She'll get it this time.
Oh, my goodness. LOL!!!! You do realize that "required" doesn't only mean "forced", right? I didn't think it required deletion, meaning I didn't think it needed to be deleted. OBVIOUSLY no one REQUIRED, as in FORCED deletion, because YOU aren't an admin and don't have that ability.
By the way, you noticeably avoided my question. WHAT action did you hope would be taken in regard to Standard's post?

The strong delusion was not exclusively for a homosexual. That's pretty sloppy exegesis, Standards!
Furthermore, the entire first 2 chapters of Romans is an indictment on Gentiles, then on Jews. It's a polemic of sorts by Paul. Get what he's saying.
Of course there wasn't exclusivity in his statement. However, Paul did point out that this sin was shameful. It's against nature. Kind of like long hair on a man.

I'm not saying that Hell will be hotter for the homosexual. I'm merely saying that homosexuels are subject to a stricter punishment here on earth. God said that he would send them a strong delusion.
So every gay person gets that delusion? It's an automatic?
Wellll....surely you know I'm not referring to YOU?
Really, that was a misstatement on my part. Lots of things are debatable, no matter the source. It just seems that some people will pick things apart simply because they come from a conservative, and not because the content is really questionable. In fairness, that applies to conservatives' reactions to liberal comments, too.
In the case of this thread, the original statement is hard to analyze on its own.
LOL! I understand... just doing my part to help the thread move along...
