I never said you did, you obviously missed my point You said you were glad to be an athiest, but I fail to see what that has to do with hating a homosexual.
Alright! Im sorry everyone. Religious debate over.
Kittens are nice.
Humankind is DOOMED. I learned that by joining RPGC and reading threads.

My apologies. I am in a defensive mode today because of crap going on at work =)
Just cause you disagree with homosexuality (as I do) doesnāt mean you make monuments to the death of gay people. Seriously.
P.S. Before I get bashed, I disagree with homosexuality, but i dont hate the people for it. Do what you want on your own time. As long as it dont involve me, go right ahead.

<img src=āhttp://www.rpgclassics.com/staff/tenchimaru/td.gifā> I donāt think that people will be offended just because you donāt have the intense burning desire in your loins to participate in hardcore, not-very-heterosexual activities. I mean, god knows that I donāt, but that doesnāt immediately cause me to lynch gay couples on the tallest trees in the city
<font size=ā1ā>Well, not often, at leastā¦</font>
okay that guy shouldn't be a preist anymore because your not supposed to wish death on other people. and i was gonna put my view on gay people but i dont want to offend anyone so well
Originally posted by Evangelion The bible states tolerance to all, people who hate gays and fall back on that excuse are pathetic.
Yes. Hypocrites give everyone a bad name.
Yeah, thatāll destroy religionās image that much more. Just because youāre opposed to someoneās belief shouldnāt mean youāre happy because they diedā¦meh some fools just donāt learnā¦
What was the quote: āLove the sinner, hate the sinā?
I really doubt he woudl be removed. But thatās just sad. sighs But then, what can you do? People are like that.
Really, itās nice to see though, that heās branded the town evil for having Shepard living in it. Thatāll go really well.
The only monster is him. Shepard may be going to hell, but wrath is one of the seven deadly sins for a reason: and this so called āpreacherā has a worse place set for him.
kittens are sweet. iāve got one at homeā¦itās named āMuisā translated to english itās called āMouseā
that guy should come to the netherlands some timeā¦ weāve got entire festivals for gay people, and they even have a holiday in the year itās called āpink saturdayā and i think itās cool
There is almost nothing said DIRECTLY in the bible about homosexuality, and in fact, Jesus himself says NOTHING on the subject. The only things about homosexuality in there are indirectly referring to it, like Sodom and Gamora.
People like that preacher sicken me. It doesnāt matter if someone is worse than Hitler; you have no right to celebrate their death. Not only that, but the guyās a PREACHER! They teach peace and tolerance of all others, even sinners; they are NOT supposed to praise the murder of sinners, or entice others to do the same.
However, killing him would not solve anything. Murder is NEVER the real solution. I bet weāll see this go up before the Supreme Court, and if they decide that the monument is okay, then weāll have revealed them for the bigots they really are. If they say no, on the other hand, weāll praise them for moving our country forward in terms of tolerance and non-reliance on false religious teachings.
Well, if itās on private land there isnāt jack you can do legally. Frankly I think that guy is a stupid bigot, but frankly he has every right to hate gays, and I have every right to hate him for it too. Viscious cycle, eh?
