You'd have to consult your god about that

Are you hurting anyone by being bisexual? No. So why should anyone have a problem with it, but I'm sure that's not what some of these relgious weirdos are gonna tell you...

No, love cannot be denied whether you want one gender or another.

You are asking us? i would say no.

Created in the image of the one God and equally endowed with rational souls, all men have the same nature and the same origin. Redeemed by the sacrifice of Christ, all are called to participate in the same divine beatitude: all therefore enjoy an equal dignity. The Catholic Church believes there is nothing sinful about being bisexual or homosexual. But bisexuals and homosexuals like all unmarried people are called to celibacy. The Church specifically says that homosexuals (and bisexuals) "must be accepted with respect, compassion, and sensitivity. Every sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided." Here is the text of the document, On the Pastoral Care of Homosexual Persons (1986): http://www.newadvent.org/library/docs_df86ho.htm For more information, see the Catechism of the Catholic Church, section 2357-2359: http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/pt3sect2chpt2art6.htm#2357 With love in Christ.

Nahh..you can be bi if ya want to :)

One of the seven deadly sins: Greed (for both genders). No. I don't really believe that.

Are you asking about the "act" of pursuing males and females or are you asking about the actual attraction? Because so far it seems like some of the religious institutions look down upon the action, not so much the innate desires.

I certainly hope not!! Why dont you ask someone who specialises in your religion.. whoever that might be and let them them tell you the answer you require.

Personally I don't think it's a sin. Only God can answer this question. He's the ultimate judge, not any of us.

not if you love the person. :3 pic © Bloodhound-Omega

The Bible is very clear on homosexual sex being sin. Bisexuality can be described as someone who sometimes is involved in homosexual sex, other times in heterosexual sex. The homosexual sex would be a sin. But keep in mind that outside of marriage, heterosexual sex is also a sin. Again, this is all according to the Bible, which is the only source of information I have to say whether something is sinful or not.

If I understand you and at the risk of over-generalizing; from a Christian perspective yes. From a pagan perspective no. And the answer should only matter to you if you decided how to look at it. In other wards it is only a sin if you agree that it is a sin. If you disagree than it isn't. If your religion teaches that it is a sin and you value your beliefs above your relationships then it is a sin. If you don't place your faith above your relationships then it isn't. The cure would be to end the behavior or ignore the religion or change the religion. The chioce is your alone to make.

No, don't sweat it. Know thyself.

GOD knows best so leave it to your GOD and to mine.

Not in my world.

Interesting. Sin as a topic is designed to engender a feeling of guilt and thus to allow control by a priesthood. Sin per se is not a fact unless you create and environment in which sin can exist. I do now allow myself to be controlled by anyone. Sin does not exist.

That depends on your religious belief and how you interpret your set of holy writings. I suspect that most of the old scriptures (all of them) were not targeting homosexuals/bisexuals in and of themselves, but where instead targeting sex for the sake of sex itself. We find that none of the scriptures condemn any sexual act between married people. In fact nothing about what two people in a loving relationship is mentioned in any religion. However straight acts of "sexual misconduct" such as adultery are mentioned. The key here is that two individuals inside of a committed relationship appear to be able to consent and enjoy many things. There it is assumed that love is the basis for the relationship to begin with. Marriage has evolved since the time of the earliest records of man. Used to be marriage was consummated by a sexual act. Ceremonial marriage presided by an authority was a very rare event. Basically all it took was two people being in love, having sex and claiming each other as spouse. As time wore on men developed all of these rules, trappings and regulations about what marriage is, how it is defined and even made it a taxable institution that needed licenses and fees and "official" sanction by church and state. The Bible (a collection of 76-78 books) never actually says that marriage is ONLY between a man and a woman. It describes marriage between Adam and Eve giving a "reason" why a man and a woman cleave to one another. There are hints that "alternative" relationships between two loving individuals is ok in the Eyes of God. the Story of Johnathan and David has been compared to be a homosexual relationship. Ruth and Naomi appear to have a lesbian relationship. http://www.biblesexstories.com/stories/ruth_naomi.html for overviews on those and other sex related stories of the bible. Jesus said nothing about homosexuality and bi-sexuality. Indeed the story of the eunuch Jesus said that there are those "born that way" which for the day and the age the culture may very well been reflecting men who had no desire to be with a woman. Given that eunuchs where used to guard harems, it is logical to think that selecting gay (possibly bi-sexual) men to guard the woman would make perfect sense. After all a man without a desire too have sex with a woman would be far more safer around women than a man who still has the desire if not the equipment. Then there is the story of Jesus and the Centurion. What our culture is blind to is that in those days Roman centurions would keep slave boys on the "road" for the sexual pleasures that they could have. Often a deep abiding love would result. This makes a bit more sense when we consider how far the Roman was willing to go too get his "slave" healed. http://www.gaychristian101.com/Gay-Centurion.html for more detail on that story. Of course the modern Churches flat refuse to accept these interpretations, but then churches are based on traditions which were set during troublesome times. That last link has other interesting interpretations of the bible. I would like to think that God is merciful and understanding and knows at least as much as we do. We know know that homosexuals and bisexuals are born that way, we also know that gays and bisexuals are also able and do form life long committed, loving relationships which rival and outlast many straight marriages. Considering that we were wrong about interracial marriages as being "wrong" and we were wrong about keeping slaves and we were wrong about many other "biblically sound" yet morally and ethically wrong social practices, I believe it is highly possible that we were wrong about the GLBT.

only if you do it right:)))

It's really hard to believe that something in nature (which is by God) can be a sin. Why would we feel for same, opposite or both genders then? we don't BECOME bi right? We are attracted to both genders. It's nature not choice. I don't think it could be a sin.

If it is, then I'm going straight to Hell.

i think that if u are bisexual, it's not ur fault...its nature, but if you do something (sin) wrong with different genders, then i think its a sin

im tempted to say yes but that's just because a lot of gays boast about it and where clothes that say they're proud of it. otherwise it is not a sin, dont encourage it.

I dont think it is.. I think that if thats the way you want to be it is your life. For me Im not bi, but I can look at a girl and be like well shes Hot, or So on. But it doesnt mean I am bi; I am just a sexual person.

No it isnt. Dont believe that celibacy crap either

Sorry, meant to be comment. ;)

"but living a lifestyle that doesn't allow for procreation is a sin" -maesterchief So, holymen living a life of celibacy are sinners?

Frankly, my friend, there is no such thing as sin. Sin implies there is some greater authority to answer to for a transgression against their will. Morals should not be derived from that sort of cause. Immorality should be judged by what harm you do to other individuals. I see nothing immoral in two people of the same sex showing attraction or affection to each other. There is no harm done. While it may go against your sensibilities, cultural teachings, and personal choices it is not wrong. If you take the Bible as absolute authority then think on this: the Bible was born of a primitive culture rank with tyranny and sexual repression. Sins were taboos that enforced authority of the strong who were willing to break them to crusade against those who in their own right saw the crusaders as sinners. If you value freedom and individual rights then you cannot rely on a canonized book based on interpretations of translations of writings more than 8 thousand years old. If you follow your own mind you can at least work out for yourself a reason to be a bigot.

In a word Yes.

What isn't a sin?

If there is god, yes. If there is no god then no.

if there is ONE god and he created man in his own image then god himself is sexless

Sin is a victimless crime.

it is scienticifly imposible for 2 males to have sex so hence its not sex at all its just 2 males touching each other with there body parts and it is not a sin to touch each other.

Yes in a Christian perspective..

An entire answer thread has been removed. http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/2485423 has the screenshots of what was removed

If Jesus Died for our Sins and we Don't Sin he might have died for nothing. don't worry about it.

people have totally misinterpreted prophets over the years. did you know the bible was compiled by the roman emporer constantine in 325 ad, and he was a pagan. the bible has been warped through 2000 years of bullshit. it is only a sin to do anything if you are hurting someone else. i am not gay, but i will stick my penis into another mans ass if i want to.

Nope. Just double the fun.

according to the Bible, YES...

Depends on your gender. If woman, no(two women cannot defile each other), if man stay with women.

according to the Bible, YES... Because God created man and women to be together, but not to like different sexes andanything that is not in line with God's perfect will is a sin. Thats why God through His Son Jesus Christ gives us Grace

Some believe so.

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!UGH

deleted, meant as comment.

in the bible yes but if your not christian then no.

if you think its right go ahead be by it's not a sin its just a life choise

Yes.

Many believe so, yes.

Who said "Tho shall not be homosexual", DID GOD SAY THAT, no he didnt

That would be between the individual and his and her(both) maker. Although I would be pretty sure God would not be to happy, he/she would have some explaining to do when the time comes.

Yes.

Some people think so. But you're asking me. So, no : )

I don't think so. You only have one life to live, do what you want.

i dont think theres anythng wrong with it, i think its lame to be a trend bi but whatever

As this is in the Christian section, I am going to give answers about the Christian paradigm. The answer is that it depends. Many Christians believe that homosexual sex acts are sinful. Many Christians believe that thoughts about actions are just as sinful as the actions themselves. (There is some Biblical precedent for this, even from Jesus, who said that looking upon a woman in lust was adultry.) For those in this group, the answer is yes. Now, there are groups (such as the Catholics) who believe that bisexuality or homosexuality is not a sin in and of itself. However, the caveat here is that homosexual sex acts are still considered sinful (either inherently or because they are outside of marriage). Some groups do not believe that homosexuality and bisexuality are a sin, and do not believe that homosexual sex acts are, either. They base this on the context of Biblical passages, which mostly refer to temple prostitution (sacred prostitution). These views can often come with the caveat that they are performed within a long-term, monogamous marriage (these groups generally perform said marriages). I hope this helps.

If it's a sin to be Bi-Sexual then all of us are living in sin. Most people seem to feel that sex only encompasses intercourse. No so, As sex can be in any form of how we relate to another person, not just in the bedroom. Touching ,hugging or kissing, even when it doesn't lead to sex,is sex. So if you are a father or mother and have children, Do you just love those who are of the opposite gender and not the rest? We have all engaged in Homosexuality, Self-Simulation, Masturbation in an other word, long before we made our sexual preferences. Bi-Sexuality is just a matter of retaining a physical and emotional attachment for both gender.

In my opinion, yes. At the same time, I care less of any person sexual orientation. My 2 cents.

I think animals know whether they are female or male. What's wrong with humans?

uhm of course not! ;D everyone is naturally bisexual.

Its a sin to commit adultery. How can you have sex with two people without committing adultery?

It should not. Don't judge people on their sexual (or other) preference.

Of course not.. they are just any other human beings

In Christianity as I know it, it is a sin to have sex with someone of the same gender. Actually being bisexual isn't a problem. Well, that's what I've heard. Everyone has different opinions on the specifics so it's no use for me of all people to argue about them. I can say, though, that it's all bullshit.

With a lot of love... The thing that helps me to answer questions is to let the peace of the Lord rule (sway; empire; control; supreme command or authority - Dictionary) in my life/heart. Quite a mouthful isn't it: But it simply means, if you are a person that has invited Jesus Christ into your life,if you feel peace (In a general sense, a state of quiet or tranquillity; freedom from disturbance or agitation)or not about a situation then that, peace or unpeacefulness/(unhappiness, discontent,conflict,anxiousness) can be the factor you base all your answers on.(Coll 3:15) (If you are a person who has invited Jesus Christ into your life) Example: Q:Is it a sin to be bisexual? A: ???? (Do you feel peace or not?) Phi 4:6 Do not be anxious about anything... Hope this helps with answering your questions!!

Yes. Leviticus 18:22, Acts 15:29, Romans 1:26-28, 1 Corinthians 6:18, 1st John 2:16, 1COrinthians 7:2, 1 Thess 4:3-8. It isn't what we think, it's what the book says, you will not have to answer to them when all is said and done.

Of course it isn't!! don't listen to the ridiculous regurgitations of the Christians spouting their bible passages. It's just a collection of books chosen from a much larger number and put together by a committee. You are born with likes and dislikes!! Nobody attacks you because you like Tabasco sauce on vanilla ice-cream do they? You are just acting on your natural biological urges. enjoy your life without guilt and fuck all the bullshit religious hate laced garbage

is it a sin to be bisexual...? *********** lol...lol.... according to God, YEAH. God hates fornication, homosexuality, beastiality and ANY OTHER FORM OF sexual immorality. sorry but the catholic church cannot define what is sinful or acceptable to God... only GOD (in heaven...) can do that. He has a mouth for him self, and he already said that such things are an abomination to him. dont you people remember Sodom and Gomorrah? that placed BURNED because of that particular sin (among others) the bible says: "1 Corinthians 6:9 - 10 9 Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality, 10 or are thieves, or greedy people, or drunkards, or are abusive, or cheat people—none of these will inherit the Kingdom of God. " "Leviticus 18:22 “Do not practice homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman. It is a detestable sin." "Leviticus 20:13 “If a man practices homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman, both men have committed a detestable act. They must both be put to death, for they are guilty of a capital offense." now, i have to ask, who are you all going to obey and BELIEVE, God, or a "church"? lol...

Only if your a theist

It is not a sin to be a bicycle.

A non terrible sin. Good morning! I am sending you a burst of positive love to protect you as you venture forth today!

Yes but so is everything else.

yeah, its a sin to be bi. hek, its a sin to fornicate... God doesnt like those things - at all... he says it.

I beilive that you are a good person and will go to heaven if you do the best you can every day to make the people in your life safe and happy, and as long as you do that then it shouldnt matter when you had sex or what sex you had it with. live your life as best as you can and thats all you can do.

hmmm... so, Jesus needs us to sin in order to have a JOB? ... if Jesus thought that sin was no big deal, He wouldnt DIE for the sins of the whole human race. fact that he died means that something is seriously WRONG with sin. whether its, stealing, lying, murder, homosexuality etc, God hates sin and He plans to eradicate it... and the person who chooses to NOT turn from sinning. Jesus is trying to save us FROM OUR sin and God's wrath toward sin.

Just being bi sxual isn't a sin but acting on those impulses are. If you remain celibate or end up getting married and remain faithful to your spouse than you are not sinning in that respect.

To feel that way ...no to act on it yes...Everyone has different crosses to bear to Glorify Christ.

I believe that as long as you don't hurt anyone or anything, it is not considered a 'sin'. Besides, I don't believe in 'sins' anyway. I believe in right and wrong. Your choice of sexual orientation is not wrong, you can't choose it or change it. So be the best person you can possibly be, be generous, kind and respectful to people. What you do in your personal life is no one's business but your own. Don't let anyone tell you being different is wrong.

absolutely not! =)

Nope.

No. Its not against any of the 10 commandments.

Straight up sin

Hang on guys, there are loads of passages that speak against being Homosexual or Bisexual 1 Corinthians 6:9 Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. Genesis 19:4-5, 11-13, 24 Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom — both young and old — surrounded the house. [5] They called to Lot, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have SEX WITH THEM.” ... [11] Then [the messengers from God] struck the men who were at the door of the house, young and old, with blindness so that they could not find the door. [12] The two men said to Lot, “Do you have anyone else here — sons-in-law, sons or daughters, or anyone else in the city who belongs to you? Get them out of here, [13] because we are going to destroy this place. The outcry to the LORD against its people is so great that HE has sent us to DESTROY it.” ... [24] Then the LORD rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah — from the LORD out of the heavens. There are plenty more http://www.jimfeeney.org/againstgaymarriage.html Try the link, it is not evil to be homosexual, but it is evil to act on it.

I believe the asker of this question wishes to know if CHRISTIANS believe it is a sin to be bisexual. If you do not believe the Bible you can not be a Christian and therefore need not reply. Christians believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God. The Bible clearly teaches that sexual relations with any person other than that person's spouse - is a sin. The Bible also declares that same-sex sexual relations are an abomination.

I've noticed that some Christians tip toe around the subject of homosexuality or bisexuality. It is "tolerated" or "accepted" without mentioning what Scripture says about it. Whether a person is bisexual (gay part time) or homosexual (gay full time), Scripture says that it is a sin, as is any form of adultery or fornication. I'll most likely get negative comments and down grading for this answer but so be it. Scripture says what it says.

According to the Bible, of course.

All people are Bi-Sexual,but they won't admit to it,besides when either gender is engaged in Masturbation,isn't that having sex with same gender? Welcome to the Bi-Sexual-Club,and make yourself right at home.

i am answering only as a Believer in the Bible and the TRUTH it states..YES..cannot lay with opposite sex...sin is sin and one no worse than another..all can be forgiven.....

Did God not make them male and female? What does scripture say concerning sex outside of marriage? Hbr 13:4 Marriage [is] honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge. 1Cr 7:2 Nevertheless, [to avoid] fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

Yes.Leviticus 18:22 Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable.

I don't think so. You can't help your sexual desires. If you don't hurt anyone, it shouldn't be.

No, it isn't. It is a "sin" to hurt someone for selfish reasons. It is a "sin" to not give a **** about someone else's feelings. It is a "sin" to cause pain to the innocent. It is a "sin" to treat someone else, in a way that you yourself would never tolerate.

I'm answering the question according to Christianity. Yes, it is a sin to be bisexual. Now here it the support for the answer. Sin is defined for is in the Bible. Sexual intercourse outside of marriage is a adultery. The word sodomy means- Any of various forms of sexual intercourse held to be unnatural or abnormal, especially anal intercourse or bestiality. The cities SODOM and Gomorrah was a wicked and sinful city. Their sexual sins were unrestrained. So, God demolished those cities and it was made a warning for future generations. 2 Peter 2:6 Later, he turned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into heaps of ashes and swept them off the face of the earth. He made them an example of what will happen to ungodly people. Leviticus 18:22 Do not practice homosexuality; it is a detestable sin. Romans 1:18-19 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. background info on Sodom and Gemorral http://www.allaboutgod.com/truth/genesis-18.htm#20

To sin, by definition, is to break one of God’s Commandments. Jesus said “If you love me keep my Father’s Commandments.” He expanded on the law of God and wants us, as Christians, to apply the Commandments spiritually. Now, if we even look at someone lustfully, we have sinned. It’s like, if we think of having sex with them in our minds,it counts against us, as if we really did have sex, worse it shows Jesus we don’t love him. So bisexual is definitely out.

Yes it's a sin But it's no worse than any other sin If you had a son or daughter that loved to climb trees, and one day he climbed a tree but couldn't get down, would you let him hang there and eventually fall and die, or would you run out there and help him? Just don't worry about it, if you are willing to follow what the Bible says he will change your heart.

All fornication is a sin. Thats sex out side of marrage.Between a man and a woman.

simply put, perversion is perversion,why try to justify it?

sin is just an old english word for transgression(which is another old english word).what is a transgression?simply, an action (physical and or verbal)which is against natural or common (sense) law in regards as to how we treat our selves and or others.long before there was a priesthood, people new what was natural or unnatural.to many in this day can not see the repercussions of there actions. we, as trying to be good and non-judgemental(even of ourselves)tend to justify for the sake of understanding ,things which are unclean or unnatural(a distortion or perversion of nature)and are not adressing these issues with a clear aproach to define what is natural in cases of marriage.long before there whas a church or state, men and women went into a marriage,meaning two opposites came together physically as one(not spiritually or legally as the church or state would emply)and would decide for themselves whether or not to bring into the world another generation, this choice would be natural,any other type of union(man and man or woman and woman)would not have this natural choice,and by natures laws, would be unnatural.so by definition is against nature.we all see what happens to our world when we abuse and or pollute the balance of the natural order.instability,sickness and death.

Of course not! God* IS bisexual, Didn't He impregnate 'virgin' Mary, pray 'through which hole but the alternative'? [*noting it (god) doesn't exist, anything goes...]

Do you mean perversive or pervasive?
