Try being openly gay in Sudan or Iran.. Or why not in Uganda a Christian country the Christians there are currently working on extending the illegality of being gay there to include the death penalty.

Just because your local brand of religion is currently acting civilized does not mean it won't turn on you down the road, people actually vote for Santorum he's actually still a candidate to become the leader of your country and you don't see that this kind of religious zealotry isn't a problem in your country.

This is a systemic problem that every religion has, because religion is wide open to give crazies the moral right to believe as they do and act as they do because the scripture was written by cavemen and it can be interpreted in any number of ways.

So it's not bullshit.

Have I ever said that you should not be allowed to worship? Are you really this retarded bonk? My dad is a believer and I have an aunt whose ordained you think I'd actually want to limit their freedoms just because I don't agree with them?

You're such a bitter ugly little man at times, it's really sad.

That would last for about 10 minutes until the whole mess just turns into a orgy of genocide and blood..

Your ideals is a pipedream.

Killing a gay person is never justifiable. And the people killing them are not acting as Christians. I would dare say that they aren't even Christians but using the scriptures to justify abusing others. The scriptures are clear, we are to love the sinner but never advocate the wrong they do. We are to hate even the clothing stained by sin. Not kill the sinner because if that were the case everyone would be dead because ALL are sinners.

When I was in service in my early years, one of the friday night activities for a few of the troops was going into town to get drunk and look for gays to beat up.
They did this a couple times a month.
There was nothing religious about these assholes.
Intolerance comes in all forms, religion being one of them. Absence of religion doesn't have a better chance of making someone better than an asshole.
In my experiences and travels the areas where religious freedom was allowed were far superior to where it wasn't.

I agree. In my time in the military guys hated gays, we wouldn't beat them up, but we wouldn't be caught dead anywhere around them. They wouldn't be included in anything we did willingly. But the whole dont ask dont tell rule applied then. Glad I'm out now. Sucks to see what our military is becoming.

The moment a Muslim happens to fart in the general direction of a white person the both of you will be screaming about what savages they are and how evil Islam is..

You're both hypocrites and idiots.

Open any history book that wasn't written by a fundamentalist and you can see what Religion has brought upon man.. Endless horror, persecution and blood.

And it's a cycle that just keeps repeating itself, different religions same mess. Right now most of the religious violence is wrought by Muslims lo and behold it wasn't always so.

Why are you so afraid of gay people? Are they violent and physically superior to you or something?

 

-----signature-----

Not afraid, I think its disgusting myself.

 

-----signature-----

So you don't want to be near them, so you're scared? Feelings of hate towards people different then you stem from fear.

Why are you disgusted with gay people? do they smell funny or do they touch you without permission?
