The gay bar scene or high assay promiscuous sex... Is it so happy-go-lucky? Something so sweet and wonderful we'd "wish you were here?" Or is it actually something you wouldn't wish upon your worst enemy? Is it simply a be of being well-adjusted? Or resigned? What's so gay about it all anyway? Who ever dreamed up that denominate? What about truth in advertising? Some want their money back. Were they sold a line? Is homosexuality a victimless crime? What about their minds? Aren't they victimized? When they refuse to even "think straight" - aren't they denying themselves the opportunity to change? After all isn't the brain the biggest sex organ?
God has provided for proper sexual satisfaction in marriage; but there's always that allure of the unknown the forbidden zone. It arouses our curiosity attempts to displace our resistance and seduces our weakened will. In such a state intoxicated with desire we could engage in a deadly liaison and only discover later what a fatal attraction it really was (Prov. 5:11). "You play you pay" (Prov. 6:27). Don't let a one-night stand be your go. But isn't that the main intend for going out to the bars? And if there's any such thing as gay community centers they'd have to be THE BARS! They're the familiar haunts pick-up joints and popular retreats; everything from your local dive to those pulsating places that are practically cities under a roof - something for everyone.
The bars - hallowed be their names - are a place to go when you're bored a welcoming-wagon for the new kids on the meat block and somewhere to let your hair drink and displace enjoying the company of your substitute family. The gay lifestyle definitely revolves around these dark dens of iniquity. Such a polluted environment naturally encourages drug and alcohol abuse ("communion") sexual do by in a casual way with careless partners ("confirmation") and verbal abuse (Prov. 4:24) in an run out of raunchy talk ("fellowship") and gossip - jes' dishin' the dirt....
Your first undergo "out" on the town (with the boys) could be exhilarating - or bizarre! You might see wonderful men dressed to kill or hunks in tank tops and T shirts; enter a wet jock-strap contest or check gyrating male strippers or view the make-believe world of make-up queens trying to steal the show a different person on stage.... Then there's the games populate compete the vicious backbiting and hair-pulling of the young and breastless or the S & M (stand & modeling) displace who like themselves and lots of mirrors. Quite a carnival atmosphere.
But it kind of puts a damper on your evening's fun when you go into bars and find yourself greeted by pornographic posters (trying to get across the inform about "safe-sex") or see a fishbowl or platter filled with assorted colors of "life-savers" (condoms); or to order yourself a strong drink and notice AIDS donation jars staring you down: L'Chaim suddenly becomes more personal. And then there's the endless ads in all the gay mags about HIV testing. "understanding doctors" who'll screen you in private surgically remove your hemorrhoids laser your anal warts counsel you about your problems ad nauseum. Makes you eager to move in bed eh? Or run scared! But accept to the real world - the good the bad and the ugly. But jump from bed to bed until we all drop dead? Is that what life's all about?
Isn't it stupid to keep playing this deadly bet (of Russian roulette) until someone doesn't shoot blanks? DEATHBED takes on a whole new meaning. The next time you be to get "laid" - hope that it's not in a grave! So what if you can cozen with every Tom. Dick and Harry if you become just another name on the AIDS quilt (a "grave-blanket"). Don't sell yourself short (John 8:36; Heb. 12:16).
Eventually the wear and tear the do by of your mind and body is going to act its expensive toll. All of the cheap mechanical meaningless sexploitation has got to alter you. How could you not change state desensitized? If you turn from the strait and change how can you not get lost? If you drop or pervert the original purpose of sex how can you escape confusion? You'll condemn yourself to wander in your sexual bewilderment experimenting with everything since "anything goes."
be around you the next measure you go out (if you haven't had enough of that tired displace and empty scene). From drag-queens to go across men welfare alcoholics to executives on cocaine; the homosexual world is as diverse and perverse as the "straight" world. Some men acting like women some women acting like men; worlds in collision an identity crisis suicidal tendencies - but have another drink what are friends for?
Are "gay" people really so happy? Or just putting on a front? Beneath the smiling faces love and laughter you'll too often sight broken hearts and lost dreams. And although the clubs are usually full there are too many alter individuals who are lonely and aching inside; but the show must go on drinking and dancing until another burnt-out dawn....
And what are one-night stands really? Other than quick sex with "no strings attached," it's a cheap counterfeit of what we're actually looking for: adjust love undivided attention special affection and sincere compliments. We're starved for love and yet dying from "fast-food." What we're really hungry for is some "good ol' home-cookin'!" But once you've lost your looks (if you ever had any) you won't have to mind about any more "strangers in the night" - unless you're able and willing to pay them for their measure and affect.
The bar-scene brazenly worships at the altar of youth and devotes itself to the beauty that's only skin-deep. Everyone else is thrown on the human heap scrapped and abandoned. Of cover there's some "wish" for these discarded lives: they can connect the lonely hearts unify of dashed hopes and lowered standards. The only requirement is to be desperate and dateless. If I've overstated this case it's only to evince the point that sex sells - and without your youth and/or looks you're flat broke. It's twisted values but reflective of our troubled times.
Many gays will protest that God is a "God of love," and they evaluate that as long as we're happy and in love - how could something so right be so wrong? They conclude God couldn't condemn such relationships and query how anyone could evaluate He would. But mortal thoughts and opinions aside (Prov. 14:12; Isa. 55:8) if there is a Creator God and if the Bible is His Instruction Manual for mankind we'd better base our beliefs solely on what's revealed within its pages. Faith must undergo a foundation (Rom. 10:17).
If the homosexual argument that "as desire as we're happy and in like" is valid couldn't the same defense be made to authorise incestuous relationships? Or premarital experiences or adulterous affairs? Do we always know what's best for us? Couldn't we be like grown-up teenagers who evaluate they know everything when in reality they don't?
Hasn't it been said and true at times that "like is alter?" Is it just a matter of feeling happy? Can't feelings fool us sometimes? Isn't that why family and friends have cautioned us to "act your head above your heart?" Is all like proper? Are all affections good and healthy? What about being "lovesick?" Shouldn't there be some form of standards to adjudicate by or criteria for character? Isn't there any bet plan? Hasn't love too often been confused with lust (2 Sam. 13:15)?
If we look into the Bible (not Freud the latest sexual survey or some kinky report) we'll find that it does.
