    I think posts like this are best ignored. Don't bring attention to them.

    Actually, none of the posts here are filled with "Toxic" emotion. Many poster just ask simple questions. None of us were gnashing our teeth and writhing angrily in our chairs. Most of us simply laughed (I know I did) at the audacity of people who think that it takes religious fanaticism in order to have good morals and values.

    You can believe anything you want. If you want to participate in a Zombie cult that practices ritual cannibalism then by all means, do so. Just don't get upset when you get snickered at. Also, I will accept Christianity when the various Christian faiths actually get together and actually agree on the same thing. Most of you can't even agree on what faiths are Christian and which are not.

    I find it amusing that Christians feel they are so persecuted in the U.S. when there is a church on practically every corner. In NC, you can throw a rock in any direction and be guarenteed to hit a church. Your services interrupt my traffic patterns, are shown on television, and your members knock on my door to try and save my poor, faithless soul. However, despite the "Go AWAY" door mat in front of my door and the unwanted intrusion into my studying or playing SWTOR, I am always polite and even talk to them for a bit.

    Christians are not hated and despised (except by other Christians). Personally, I just want to be left alone and stop being bombarded by the Holier than thou cultist that seem to believe their diety is more important than their neighbors. I feel the same way about all of the Abrahamic religions that are used to kill, rape and torture innocents.

    OH and one last thing: The god you worship is the same god that the Muslims worship, even if you do not believe it. All three Abrahamic Religions worship the SAME god.

    Exactly. You're free to speak your mind however you see fit, but in general, life would be better if we spent less time bothering each other and just minded our own business.

    Does not apply to the public educational system, does it? Teachers are not free to teach kids about goodness of LGBT, are they?

    I just love the original post calling all Christians gay.

    Christians have never been hidden. if you guys think you're being oppressed now, which you aren't, it's you guys doing the oppression, just wait until the Anti-Christ takes over. Then you'll know the true meaning of oppression.

    No, you people have a persecution complex, because you do a huge amount of persecution yourself, from gays, to doctors who give abortions, to antisemitism, to racism against Muslims, to forcing schools to have school sponsored prayer, to segregation and discrimination against atheists and other undesirables.

    You are the instigators, and like true instigators, you always make yourselves out to be victims whenever you get people mad at you for your "all people must bow before God and let us rule your lives because we know better than you for we are slaves to a higher power" crap.

    When you people learn to stop that crap and let other people live their own lives as they see fit, maybe there wouldn't be such hostility towards you these days.

    In other words, mind your own business, and let people decide for themselves if they want to follow God or not. Stop imposing your crap.

    You have every right to believe what you want to. What you don't have is the right to impose your religious crap onto other people.

    No, kids are simply hearing, for maybe 5 minutes TOTAL, the fact that some people who do good things just happen to be LGBT instead of being the "monsters" the Christian bigots make gays out to be.

    Which doesn't FORCE anyone to sodomy! But Ostap apparently feels HE is!

    Its fascinating how much "people who hate sodomy" find themselves FORCED to do it!! :lol:

    Let them do good things, and let teachers talk about them and their good deeds without mention of their sexual orientation, for crying out-loud...

    Hey, I've got an idea - let teachers mention these famous gays, lesbians and transgenders, but let's also require teachers to say in the same breath these people cannot procreate and thus unable to have families in the traditional sense :mrgreen:

    If you're referring to the recent California curriculum change, yeah, that was a bad move as well.

    Schools should stick with the facts and leave out indoctrination.

    It sounds like Ostapbender has had some uncomfortable things happen to him. You can share with us if you like Ostap....

    I don't think anyone would have a problem with that. But there have been a lot of significant black people and part of their context is the civil rights issues of the day. Gays are still persecuted for a large part and this is simple fact. It impacts their actions and motives.

    If you want to write / rewrite history, ommitting this, you are being disingenuous.

    Here's the news; the 'traditional' family is rapidly becoming a quaint, historical sidebar. Divorce rates are rocketing and more and more people choose not to marry nor have children.
    So, what is the problem with not 'being able' to procreate? Many gay and lesbian couples adopt children whom 'traditional' marriages and heterosexual relationships have left alone. Only the idiotic, prejudiced and backward would see this as a bad thing. They tend to be the bible-thumping conservative type who live in some Victorian fantasy of 2.4 children, white picket fences and apple pie, cooling on the window sill...

    So how many of those jerkwads do you know? I hate jerkwads that throw a blanket statement over all Christians in a cowardly attempt to hide behind said blanket statements to be able to violate forum rules, you know what kind of jerkwads I am speaking about mr fd? BTW I am do not condone most cults either. If groups professing to be Christians are not following the bible and can not provide scripture to cover their actions then as I said they are cults not churches etc.

    Does that help?

    Ah, but don't you mean using scripture to justify their actions, simply because 'it is written'? This is why I distrust any faith which includes threats of 'fire and brimstone' within its teachings. There's always going to be some nutter who wants to take that crap as a literal instruction...

    First you are making this personal when it wasn’t, well until you mistakenly though yourself so important I would speak directly to you. However since you have opened the can of worms I can tell you that if you were satanically influenced you most likely would not know it. Some do most don’t. Of course if you don’t believe in it why mention it?

    You do criticize, blindly so. If you would grow a set and detail EXACTLY what you are criticizing I could correct your slanderous accusations by defending my actions and comments. However if you hide behind vague claims, comical blanket statements, and baseless insults no one could defend themselves from that insanity. So next time be specific when you sling mud.

    You have no idea of what you are talking about, and I mean less than ZERO understanding. Who do you think you are to judge anyone, with that hating attitude you are not even my peer. IMO you would not make a pimple on any Christians nether parts here.

    No as usual you have a problem comprehending simple English. The bible is written only one way, however its interpreted hundreds of different ways. If one sees the westbough cult doing their dirties, ie condemning soldiers KIA because they were gay etc, and can not determine that they are in fact a cult and misguided want to be Christians then good buddy you need your head examined. God expects us to possess a modicum of common sense.

    Well you live in a secular country that threatens you with jail where you are lucky to survive if you are gay or with death in some state if you commit a capital offense. You live in a secular world where wars are fought for secular concerns GREED, where billions have died over the years. So if you don't trust a religion where the devil and its angels get threatened with eternal (*)(*)(*)(*)ation why should I care? I do care that you are so ignorant that you are throwing your soul to the grave, but God gave you that right. Me? I will choose Gods laws and Gods world over your secular cesspool any day or eternal days, which ever comes first.

    Who allowed you to interpret the bible as you see fit? As I understand it the bible is the word of god, the law and immutable. I should check with god if it's ok to mess with his 'word' before incurring his wrath. You really wouldn't want to (*)(*)(*)(*) him off...
