Joel Osteen: Homosexuality is a sin
   
Saw this on the CNN homepage. I tend to believe taking money from people while claiming an imaginary god will save them from everything is a sin. For some time now, I have thought that organized religion needs to be outlawed. It has been the cause of too many deaths over the eons. You'll still be able to worship your imaginary gods, but you won't have to pay for it! What a deal!

Seems to be this really old piece of paper that some people once wrote said something about the right of religion.
Ohh I know it was that thing that congress read the other day.

1. Mr. Osteen is one creepy bastard

Uben is creepy if you ask me.
I'm agnostic but, I don't believe I have the right to shut down religion.
It's called tolerance DUmmies. Allowing people to believe as they choose.

So if you can no longer have organized religion, what about those rituals and prayers that require a minimum amount of people to conduct, huh? :whatever:

My pastor has never taken the tithe from anyone by force. Wish the same could be said of the IRS. We of faith don't HAVE to pay for anything.....we CHOOSE to.

So what's the big deal, DUmmies?  You don't believe in religion, so what does it matter if someone thinks it's a sin?

You don't believe in sin.  Right?

Right?

20. Locking
   
We ask that members discuss religion with sensitivity and not attack or mock members who may feel differently than they do.

WOW! This one is lame compared to some we've seen over the years! Could it be the DUmp is gettin' a little more exposure than Skins wants?

I'm sure they been pullin' a lot 'o lurkers from their "Save the UberDork" petitions!

A little sunlight on the DUmp is not a good thing apparently!

Bingo!

If they outlaw the organized religion of STATE I'd bet all the DUchebags would be against it. A DUmbass and its welfare/SSDI are soon parted.

I agree, she (I don't really know, but cbayer strikes me as a 'she') certainly seems to be one of the more aggressive mods when it comes to shutting down threads.

Maybe because the Uben poster is one of teh ghey and doesn't want to sin again? Religion outlawed? It's been the cause of deaths over the eons?! 
Maybe with those throwbacks and their religion of peace.

Tell you what, Uben, start with Islam, then get back to us and we'll talk after you're done there.  :whatever:

Islam is simply a bloodthirsty cult, in no way a religion. It's exactly as if Charlie Manson had a billion followers.

I'd say it's a barbaric political doctrine masquerading as a religion, but you and I are pretty sympatico here: we don't like Islam and know the world would be a far cleaner and better place without it.

On the bright side, that would be the final nail in the coffin for man made global warming.

That Al Gore is one creepy bastard.
