At school today someone asked the question "Was Jesus a homosexual?" I had never thought about it, but some of the responses he got were pretty interesting. I would like to know what you think. Thanks.

No Jesus is not gay. There is no evidence that supports it. He is God who became flesh. As human, He was prone to human desire, but He is also God that could overcome all human desires.

Why would he be? What evidence is there for that? What I see is the Bible condemning homosexuality as a sin and purporting Jesus to be sinless, IE he couldn't be a homosexual.
Why did this even come up? Imagine if someone said this about that pedophile Muhammad..... Things would blow up.

The bible doesn't condemn homosexuality. It supposedly condemns one man lying with another. Jesus could very well have been gay, and still could have remained without sin because (as far as I know)it is not a sin for one man to love an another man, it's only a sin for them to sleep together.

That is the most useless splitting of hairs I've ever heard of.... So homosexuality is ok according to CHristianity as long as the couple are homosexual virgins?

yes, I also think homosexual tendency and homosexual act are different.

I don;t think Jesus was gay, or there would have been something mentioned about it. Whether he was married ofr not depends on whether you assume he was a good little Jewoish boy and followed the customs of the time. If he was, then he indeed was married. if not, then, who knows. I believe he was, but not to Magdeline but to the other Mary at the crucifiction. However, all traces of his personal life would have definitely been deleted by the apostle Paul who hated women and definitely WAS gay.

No, Yeshua was NOT a homosexual nor did he have any urges of any kind to be one. The reason being is homosexuality is forbidden in the Torah and why on earth would he go against it? No reasons at all. If he did, he would not only be in violation of it, but he would be contradicting what his Father in heaven says about it.
