    People being able to live their lives the way they want to without bothering anyone?

    Apparently it IS bothering people enough that they’re willing to go through the trouble to make laws about it.

    You’re making shit up. Mad anal sex is not restricted to homosexuals you prude 😏

    Doesn’t mean it’s appropriate to teach children about it.

    From a Christian perspective, they are imprisoning and oppressing themselves because they don’t want to give up their sinful lifestyle yet want to have the same benefits as those who do. You want to have your cake and eat it, too.

    Why is it so difficult to understand that normal people don’t want to constantly be bothered or have to deal with gay people insisting they be allowed to do gay stuff around their kids?

    I mean come on, at some point you gotta look at this whole thing reasonably. Where has all the LGBT acceptance in the West gotten us? There’s gay people in the White House, transgenders in the military, pride parades in every major city, and yet somehow we’re still arguing about whether gay people are oppressed because some states won’t allow them to teach children about anal sex.

    At some point you have to ask the question whether gay people are living in a state of feeling permanently oppressed not because of what Christians will or will not allow them to do, but as a result of their sinful lifestyle?

    FWIW, I’m not sure that putting them in prison is the right way to deal with the problem, but from a Christian perspective, there isn’t much anyone can do about it as long as they insist that being gay isn’t the problem, lack of tolerance is.

    Look, clearly it would be preferable if people are moral because they have reasoned things through, because then they won’t be as likely to fall to temptation or be reasoned out of it. Now I don’t know about you, but, I would prefer someone who doesn’t murder me because they believe they’ll go to hell if they do to someone who does because he believes he’ll get away with it.

    It’s not immoral to believe in Santa Claus, is it?

    You’re confusing the Old Testament with the New. Yes, there was slavery in the Old Testament, but Jesus never had any slaves nor did He tell people to keep them. He also didn’t tell anyone to kill people in His name. If people choose to call themselves Christians but don’t keep Christ’s commandments, you can’t really blame Jesus for that, can you?


  • Jesus never said you have to follow his rules to the letter in order to avoid hell, just that you have to make a sincere effort. After all, he preached that sins could be forgiven if you repent, didn’t he?

    Meanwhile, the alternative seems to be “just do whatever makes you happy, fuck what anyone else thinks”, but that always inevitably leads to violence and bloodshed. Is that really the world you prefer to live in?
