    At least if a community goes bad, people can shift very easily and it’s an inconvenience. I think ideally though, there should be a way to create publicly accepted combined communities. Maybe an option in a community’s setting to graft in posts from another community. Although then rule enforcement and moderation might get a little tricky. For example, just say !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk grafted in !casualuk@feddit.uk, maybe along with uk politics and other UK related subs (even local UK subs, that’d be cool!). Users on unitedkingdom may see something on casualuk and unknowingly leave comments on it which are political- and discussing politics is banned on casualuk.

    It’s moreso how here people tend to gravitate to a single community. It is annoying if that community is on an instance which could be banning people for other reasons unrelated to that community. I didn’t say it isn’t a valid space, it’s just how instances work. For a while Blahaj had defederated feddit.uk because we handled trans topics differently to how they’d prefer. It would be annoying if, let’s say, the main and active asklemmy community was on blahaj

    Source on the Ethiopian church?

    Matthew 19:4-5

    He answered, “Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, ‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’?

    Gender did exist in biblical times

    John 8:1-11

    but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. Early in the morning he came again to the temple. All the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them. The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery, and placing her in the midst they said to him, “Teacher, this woman has been caught in the act of adultery. Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?” This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her.” And once more he bent down and wrote on the ground. But when they heard it, they went away one by one, beginning with the older ones, and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him. Jesus stood up and said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more.

    According to the Bible, engaging in homosexual activity is dishonouring God.

    I’m just saying what the Bible says.

    Romans 1:26-27

    For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.

    One of the greatest commandments. But it’s not the greatest. The greatest is to love the LORD your God with all of your heart, soul, mind and strength. That means loving Him more than any human and not engaging in relationships that dishonour Him.

    Everyone has sinned and yet is made in God’s image. No human is not made in God’s image. Does that mean that we shouldn’t have a definition of right and wrong? By no means!

    I never said to hate your neighbour.
