Homosexuality is not a Sin in The Bible

It seems my opponent is new here and has not designed this debate properly, so I will do so. We should properly define the resolution which is: (Homosexuality is not a Sin in The Bible) 1) Homosexuality is defined as: 1 : of, relating to, or characterized by a tendency to direct sexual desire toward another of the same sex. 2 : of, relating to, or involving sexual intercourse between persons of the same sex. . http://www.merriam-webster.com... A 'Sin' is defined as: 1 a : an offense against religious or moral law. b : an action that is or is felt to be highly reprehensible . c : an often serious shortcoming : fault. . http://www.merriam-webster.com... The Bible is defined as: 1 capitalized a : the sacred scriptures of Christians comprising the Old Testament and the New Testament. . http://www.merriam-webster.com... 2) In this debate I will suggest that either, 'the King James Version' is used or the original 'O. T. Hebrew & N. T. Greek. ' By doing this, it will cut down on many translation out there and focus on the original meanings. 3) My opponent never told us who has the burden of proof in this debate. It is usually on the Instigator or the one making the claim to supply the BOP. I will suggest in this debate that both have the BOP. Pro must show that homosexuality is not a sin by the Bible. Con must show that homosexuality it is a sin by the Bible. 4) Pro did not give any round structure or rules in this debate. I will offer a few rules and give us round structure. Round 1 is for acceptance(Con can give Biblical references as suggested by Pro) Rounds 2-4 are for rebuttals and new arguments. Round 5 is for closing rebuttals. a) We should establish that semantics is not allowed. One can not find just any definition and use it but must use ordinary english definitions or original Hebrew & Greek definitions. b) Be polite. c) Post all resources and references. 5) Voters are to vote on who makes the best argument & facts. I will now offer Biblical verses that will be used to show that homosexuality is a sin in the Bible. I will use only the KJV in this round. My opponent is allowed to use Hebrew & Greek also. 1. Leviticus 18:22 King James Version (KJV) 22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. 2. 1 Corinthians 6:9 King James Version (KJV) 9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 3. 1 Timothy 1:10 King James Version (KJV) 10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; 4. Romans 1:26-27 King James Version (KJV) 26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 5. Deuteronomy 22:5 King James Version (KJV) 5 The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the Lord thy God. 6. Leviticus 20:13 King James Version (KJV) 13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them. 7. Genesis 2:21-25 King James Version (KJV) 21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; 22 And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. 23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. 24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. 25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed. These verses should suffice for now. I am given the ability to introduce new verses when need be and also my opponent has right offer new evidence until the 4th round. I await my opponents Round 2.
