Relgious nuts are nuts anywhere... but I thought I'd post this if only for the loverly picture of a Zealot picketing with this:

That is just sad...

people are so cruel. Bigots.

Hetero sexuals are immune of HIV,only gays have AIDS.

Allright, in a Biblical sense, homosexuality is wrong; however, it has long been the saying that you are supposed to love the sinner and hate the sin. Though it does not say whether or not they like her as a person, I can only assume that this has something to do with it. I can also understand the position of *Harry Connick Jr accent from Independence Day* the reverend. I can understand the need for a law prohibiting the open discrimination of gays, but, and this where I agree with *the reverend*, because of the belief system and homosexuality being a sin, there should not be a gay person in a community leading role. This is how we open the door to our kids being corrupted. Not all homosexuals will do this, but just one instance of a community leader (ie. priest) misbehaving either around children or in public and the outcry will be horrendous. Not so good for the united minority. Though I might like you as a person, I do not have to condone what you do or support your effort for a public role in policy.

What does the tsunami have to do with anything that was in the article?

Yea, I didn't get it either.

hell if i know... other than the girl in the photo was trying to unseat an openly gay city counselor... apparently the girl (in the photo) is the granddaugter of the guy trying to get the anti-gay laws in place.

that and "THANK GOD FOR THE TSUNAMI THAT KILLED ALL THOSE HEDONISTS AND GODLESS HEATHENS"

I think, for the sake of decency and morality, that only homosexuals should be allowed to hold public office. Possibly bisexuals.

This is assuming that being homosexual is both corrupt, and something that can be impressed on young children. That is questionable, but I'll accept that your views on that point rest on your religious beliefs.

It is often said that the fact that Greek society was more homosexual shows that it can be influenced by culture. I'm not so sure. Prisoners will often perform homosexual acts simply because there are no women about, and give it up when released. Dogs do the same - to take an example, my friend used to own two male dogs who would try to hump each other. I doubt that they were influenced by 'doggy gay culture.' Instead I suspect that it was the absence of females. There is no good evidence to show that people can be 'corrupted' by exposure to homosexuality.

are you kidding... pretty much ALL dog culture is gay nowadays... just look at the Westminster.

Well over my head. Unles you're talking about Tony Blair and David Blunkett or something, which I doubt you are.

it's a sin to love another of your own sex, but hate is okay by christian standards?

do they really wonder why christianity is losing members to more...open minded facets of spirituality?

What a cry for attention.

well... i want attention, but im not gay... so how does that work?

Christianity is growing in popularity. So is Islam, which is even less open-minded.


Technically speaking, nowhere in the Bible is there a stance against love. Jesus kisses his disciples all the time on the lips; hell, everyone does in ancient times. It just doesn't advocate taking it so far as having a sexual relationship with someone of the same gender. I'm against that stance, but to say that the issue is about love is to over-simplify it.
