Oh, and you don't have to learn a language from a young age to become fluent! The age before puberty is the time when the mind is the most impressionable and receptive to knowledge, but if you approach the language with the correct mindset, anyone can learn at any age. 
It would take more time, though.
The Hebrews hated homosexuality but Christians dont. It does say in the Hebrew texts that Homosexuality is a sin.
Your making a bad connection. First of all Hebrew is a language not a religion, to say a specific race hates gays its...well racist. Second Jewish people don't hate people who sin, they are aware that everyone sins including themeselves. Third, both Jewish people and Christians are aware there not supposed to hate anyone for anything. "hate" is a sin.
The way I feel about homosexuality and sin is that if all gays go to hell, then at least I can rest easy knowing the place is going to have impeccable interior design.
And the parties will be faaaaaabulous!

HAAAA! XD
I really don't believe in any religion, I'm too caught up being a teenager to think about it.
I'm an Atheist. Nothing influenced from what I'm aware of. My mom is christian and I'm pretty sure my dad's an Atheist.
I think it's because I was aware of at least 3 gods as a kid. God himself, The demigod Thor, and Buddha. And as I got older it just seemed highly improbable for me to believe in a higher power. Along with one incident that I probably shouldn't mention as it may cause some out burst. Simply put, some dude tried to force his religion on me.
Atheist and respectful until the other isnt
I'm Church of England (Anglican.) And I keep it to myself usually. I don't go round ratting on someone because of their religion and I hope people won't rat on mine.
Religion is something I deem unneeded in my life. To me, the existence or nonexistence of any gods doesn't concern me. And I find it hilarious how the extremists of both theistic and atheistic views love to argue about who's right, and how even amongst the theists, they argue about which group is right.
Note to those who read this, I posted this without reading any previous comment.
I was raised Catholic. In the second grade I attended a Catholic school, which was the beginning of my not following religion. Two things they taught me back then that really stood to me: envy is a sin, but it is stated in the Bible that God is jealous, and doesn't want us worshiping other idols. I was told that God is perfect and can do that., Then we went over the part where God forced us to speak different languages just to create racism. Those who are good Catholics are called "God fearing". Why do I need to fear Him? I'm not atheist, however. I'm agnostic. There is too much that happens around us to be explained, so there must be something else out there. Ultimately, I'm a man of fact over faith; I'll take science any day over any religion, except maybe Buddhism. I feel that religion is better in theory than in practice, since it the reason that most wars in human history have been fought. "Respect thy fellow man" is an incomplete phrase. "Respect thy fellow man, only if they belive in the same god" is how it should be written, because that is how any religious follower interprets it. We all bleed the same blood when cut, no matter our creed or race. If you are going to hate on someone, make it because of their actions, not their faith.
That is my opinion. I know it will infuriate some of you, but that is the risk I took when responding to this.
@gahmstead (i aint quoting all that)
this is thankfully a rather tolerant thread.
I am a Norse (Celtic) and i follow the god Freya for she shall guide my soul to Valhalla.

But on a serious not I am anAgnostic Athiest, but I rarely ever talk about my beliefs, and respect everybody
