    Homosexuality has always been sinful---but the laws have been written in stone since 1450 BC saying so. And all moral laws of the OT are still binding to authentic, believing Christians.

    SJW Progressives are almost always against any Whites having any unique culture or identity.

    Painting of gay pride = celebration.

    Painting of cross = SHOVING RELIGION DOWN OUR THROATS!!!!

    Probably ya'll are CINO's (Christians in name only)---just as there are RINO's that include so many lukewarm GOP supporters that still want all the big gov social programs to keep growing.

    I thought if a flag flies over something to which you object your objection is to be respected and tolerated.

    Better to be a CINO than a wacko.

    If you worried as much about Mardi Gras and Spring Break, you might have a point. Don't make me get out my arsenal of those pics.

    Oh that's right, it's just not OK when the gays do it. BTW, looks like a good time.

    What dodge?

    No, I wouldn't. It's the employers prerogative

    Incorrect. They are announcing their romantic preference. Your mind may be in the gutter and you immediately think about sex, but that is your short coming.

    If that is a symbol of the bedroom so is a couple holding hands.

    No it isn't.
    They are applying a false meaning. They are objecting to their own imagination. Sounds like a personal problem.

    Tolerated yes respected no.

    It's the "no true Scotsman" fallacy. The standard in which he measures Christianity is his own arbitrary benchmark. Made up by himself or more likely he was told to believe like the mindless drones cultists are.

    He has magical knowledge of the one true God, what's hilarious about this is that every self aggrandizing sanctimonious christian cultist believes their knowledge is direct from God, yet they disagree. They'd cut each other's throats over it if we'd let them.

    The term I like for them is the talibornagian

    Christian in Christ's name only pretty much represents all of Christianity.

    it sounds like it was just an advert on the bus, not a political statement. It's just advertising an event. So yes, he's a bigot.

    Exactly. These things are certainly not just among gay folks. But it only seems bad when it is. Perhaps there are some personal issues.

    When did I say he shouldn't be fired? I just asked questions of the liberals that claim they are for the working man. I'm all for an employer being allowed to fire people for mouthing off against company policy in public.

    We are for the WORKING man. Not the man who refuses to do his job.

    LOL...romantic preference...bedroom preference...a distinction without a difference. in any case, you did confirm my earlier post.

    Is hand holding as exclusive to Straights as the rainbow is to Gays?

    Those are what the Rainbow flag flies over, it is the Rainbow celebration. It is what it stands for. That is the objection from what I have read about it. And cities do not allow such behaviors at Spring Break and in fact city after city are getting rid of Spring Breaks and they only place you see such at Mardi Gras is in the French Quarter of New Orleans and that is primarily the very same people and Rainbow groups. I come from the city that founder Mardi Gras, ride in parades and play in parades, that's not allowed here or the many other cities who hold Mardi Gras celebrations.

    He didn't refuse to do his job. He was never asked to drive that bus. His reason for being fired is he publicly (Twitter and other places) said he wouldn't have driven the bus if asked to do so.

    SO you are all for firing people who exercise their freedom of speech, I guess, or is it just if they espouse views different from your own?

    When and where have you ever seen a bus representing straight pride? And like Halloween or Christmas, which holiday is the gay holiday?

    Nope, to quote Dr Evil, "You just don't get it, do you?" ;)

    If you go around an announce in public that you will refuse to do your job if asked to do it, expect to be fired. Look, I know you're trying to find some way to make us "librools" out to be terrible people, but it's not going to work in this case.

    Every day. It's everywhere. If you really want to see a straight pride parade, check out St Patrick's day parades, where gay people are not allowed to march. Spring Break is the epitome of it too.

    Do you really want me to get out the Spring Break and Mardi Gras pics? Really?

    Spring Break, once a year. No penis parades.

    Mardis Gras, once a year, including many gay events, so that's a wash.

    Gay Pride Parades a hundred times a year.


    Yeah... excellent comparison.

    Zzz....

    Immature adults maybe. I find it offensive, and I'm a mature adult. My experience trumps your assumption.

    Uh huh. So you're telling me that Spring Break is now banned? Trust me, it's all still going on. 20-something hormones are still raging. Don't make me get out the pics.

    As for the rest of your "rainbow" rant, what are you even talking about?

    Don't even get me started on Mardi Gras down in New Orleans. Half of that is a gay pride parade in itself.

    No straight pride parades out there anywhere.
