4. I've always said:
It's a shame I can't believe in The Rapture, because it would sure be great if all the Christians disappeared.

7. Christians of course. The Romans used to feed them to lions for entertainment.
It's all been downhill since then.

12. I don't think your religion is any more worthy of respect than any other of the many ridiculous---
---things that humans have believed throughout our history.
I might respect those that call themselves Christian for other reasons but certainly not because of their religion.
At the end of the day, liberal Christians are nothing more than enablers for their non-liberal brethren. They normalize magical thinking in place of rationality. You might be harmless but your beliefs are certainly not.

27. But it's Christian churches who fund the hatred
Edited on Wed Nov-04-09 06:53 AM by theHandpuppet
I'm sure there are both agnostics and atheists who don't support equal rights, but neither have organized to target GLBT rights. The ballot measures (to repeal) in California and Maine were funded in large measure with funds from the Mormon and Catholic churches. Right now the representative for the Washington, D.C. Archdiocese is actively battling against equal rights in the District, along with local pastors of major Christian denominations (mostly A.M.E. and Baptist).
Wherever you find organized efforts and tons of money being poured into efforts to persecute the GLBT community, you will find the organization and money provided by Christian churches. Those are the faces behind the protest signs of hatred, those are the hands placing dollars in the collection plates of persecution. So you'll have to pardon those of us who are just sick and tired of this shit.
On a thread calling for killing them. :whatever:

30. Yay! Let's kill people with whom we disagree! How wonderfully progressive!
For a second there, I thought I'd been misdirected to Free Republic.

Magical thinking? You want to see magical thinking? This (http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=245&topic_id=44537) is magical thinking at it's most ridiculous. I posted that thread over at the old site. It was funny back then, and it's funny now. And they call us wackos.

Sounds like someone has a wad in their panties over residents of certain states no longer allowing rump-ranging idiots to carry on their deprived lifestyles with the sanction of certain state's government....

Evidently you've never been to FR. Between FR and DU, the only group that actively wants to kill those who oppose their political POV is the site where you made the above post.

26. I gotta unrec you for being a bigot your damn self
Lashing out at people that are also on your side because they have something in common with those that are not is ****ing idiotic.
The theocrats are the issue not any religious belief, I hate theocrats at least as much as you do and work for the same issues. Christians get to be punching bags regardless of where we stand but I doubt shitting all over other groups of faith would be accepted much less cheered.

33. If You Are a Christian, You Are Not On Our Side
Every cent you donate to your church goes to finance hate. Every time you announce you're a christian, you advance the brand name of hate.
You are the enemy.

35. Correct, but they excuse themselves with "love the sinner, hate the sin"
as if that were some sort of honorable thing. :grr:
See? They want to force us to love the sin, too.

Let the gays and other assorted misfits keep this bullshit up. Those that really are Christians there, yet perhaps are a little confused by wordly ideals too will eventually be turned off by this type of thing and probably lean more towards conservatism. I'm sure to the more moderate; the fact that Christians aren't out there killing gays in droves is not lost on them, yet their are militant gays who publicly will admit to wanting Christians dead.
The sheer off balance of the two things here that have happened is glaring. Most people, even moderates, have decided that legal, they do not want to legitimize gay marriage. It may be as much an expression of not wanting to burden an already overburdened economy then an outright shunning of gay marriage itself(a point lost on the gay militia). ON the other side, the gay militia wants all people who disagree with them dead and the reason they want people dead(a hateful act we'd all agree)? Because they consider not agreeing to legitimize their unions to be hateful. :rotf:
So in the end, if we are to read this right, both sides hate the other so it's best man wins. Boy, the gay militia really put themselves in a pickle on this one given that since in the end everyone will fight for themselves if it comes out in a battle of survival and given they are 1-2 percent of the population(and probably a lot less that are gay militia types) this is a battle they might want to reconsider. their number are more like those of Christians in Rome when feeding a Christian to the lion was in vogue. Whose likely to be standing in the arena this time around?
To those DUers that are Christians reading this. Seriously, it's time to consider your allegiance...to Christ or the world. Look at what the world breeds. Do you really see most Christians advocating this kind of hatred? You may not agree with every Christian, but you know your Christian brethren are restrained from primal instincts by God. Sure, they may sin terribly regardless and do, but that restraint, as we see on DU and in the WH now, is a very important thing in a civilized society. It breeds true compassion alongside responsibility.

This one deserves a re-post in the "posts that stand alone" area.

I was thinking the same thing as I was reading the first post.
The level of hate directed towards Christians is just amazing....also makes me wonder how much of it is real and how much of it is to impress fellow DUmmies..... ::)

43. I assume you also want to kill the followers of Islam
since they are more anti-gay than any Christians I know.
http://www.missionislam.com/knowledge/homosexuality.htm
According to a pamphlet produced by Al-Fatiha, there is a consensus among Islamic scholars that all humans are naturally heterosexual. Homosexuality is seen by scholars to be a sinful and perverted deviation from the norm. All Islamic schools of thought and jurisprudence consider gay acts to be unlawful. They differ in terms of penalty: after which statistics on executions of gays in muslim lands.

What a pathetic and horrible state one must be in if Christians are one's worst enemies.

Edited on Wed Nov-04-09 06:53 AM by theHandpuppet
Okay, aside from the fact that a gay activist named theHandpuppet just screams irony and mind bleach, I'm seriously trying to rap my head around the level of hatred and rage of someone accusing others of hatred and rage over a philosophical difference. They're not asking for tolerance, they're asking for public sanction. Besides, why can't they still get married? Frankly, I don't give a rat's ass whether "the state" recognizes my union (28 years, yesterday!!!), I don't think the state should even BE in the marriage business. God's endorsement is the important one. If a gay couple find someone (a pastor, ship captain, village priestess, Club Med bartender) to marry them, to celebrate their spiritual connection so they can share it with friends and family, more power to them.
Granted, if they want "legal" rights, they have to jump through a few more hoops but that's what happens when you choose a path different than "the norm". And it really depends upon how important the union is to you. Whining every couple of years about a ballot item doesn't exactly scream "commitment". I made the decision to homeschool in a country where "public school" is the norm. My choice, my responsibility. I had to jump through more hoops than people who have their children educated by someone else and just because I think it's a superior education doesn't mean the whole damn country is going to embrace it or even grudgingly approve. There were legal obligations I had to adhere to and a profound responsibility to my sons that went well beyond the state's requirements. However, it was important enough to me that it was worth the extra effort. I'd think that 2 people who want to create a union between themselves would feel the same responsibility for each other, but evidently not.

Dogmatic anti-christian whackadoodles like this are one of the primary reasons I don't associate with with people who broadcast their claims to be atheists at every possible opportunity, despite the fact that religion plays absolutely no part in my life.
They don't even have the courage of conviction to be anti-theists - just anti-christian bigots.

I hope theHAndpuppet realizes that alot of Christian's own most of the guns in the US. Good luck trying to round us up for the new coliseums jackhole.

What a sad bunch of deranged, hate-filled assholes.

They don't really care about the philosophical content, what they want is to be able to screw each other every time they get divorced, and by the way, their divorce rate exceeds hetero couples by a mile. Especially the older and younger couplings. I don't have the numbers handy, but it's easy to look up.
They also want the so-called tax breaks us married folks get. If they would research it at all, they'd figure out we're gettin' screwed more than they are!
I guess if they adopt, they could also be eligible for the earned income credit, but I think you needn't be married for that. Just harder to adopt with only "one" parent.
