Originally, separation of church and state was intended to keep the gov't from interfering with the church. Our liberal supreme court and politicians have changed the meaning, however- and most people are too apathetic or ignorant to realize it or care. I love what America STOOD for- not what it stands for now. Your enlightenment is not neccessary.
What's got your undies in a bunch is that today separation of church and state prevents you from imposing your bigotry on everybody else. If you don't like it here, then leave. You and your bigotry won't be missed.
I have no power to impose my or His standards on anyone. I do have freedom of speech, but i imagine I will lose that in time as well. Discrimmination is wrong- except against Christians- that is where we are heading. I'm not upset however- Jesus said "these things must come to pass".
Well, if you want to discriminate against that/those which you do not approve of, do you not feel that being discriminated against yourself is simply reaping what you are sowing and absolutely nothing to do with it happening because of something that Jesus said would happen?.

It will come to pass.
These people, and 140 others, were murdered this week in Kenya just because they were Christians.

Do you even know the difference between " homosexual" and " bi sexual"
Nearly all animals are bisexual.
How many animals in those videos are " homosexual" and thus have no sexual interest in females ?
Please learn terminology before trying to prove a point !
Hmmm, so "bi" is okay, but exclusively homosexual is not? Sort of reminds me of my teen years in a Mississippi high school when a dark skinned student enrolled in our school. One of my acquaintances asked another friend, "Is she a "nigra?"
"No,," my friend responded, "she's Hawaian."
"Oh," said the acquaintance. Obviously she was black without being "black."
Please note if you payed attention to any of those videos they pointed out that some of those same sex animal lovers were life-long partners despite an abundance of females in herds or packs.
And how about human homosexuals? Frequently married, having and raising children, and with strong church ties like Mel White, father of two, ghost writer for spiritual and a autobiographies by the likes of Jerry Falwell, Billy Graham, and Pat Robertson (while in the closet). He is a graduate of Fuller Theological Seminary, and has spoken in many churches both before and after coming out. He didn't seperate from his wife, who knew he was gay the last five or six years of their marriage, until after their children were grown.
His autobiography, "Stranger at the Gate, To Be Gay and Christian in America," is a sad story of what fundamentalists attempt to do to "cure" gays. He tried counseling, both electro and isolation therapy, and even went to a "pray away the gay" seminar. He's still gay, and has now been with his current husband for over 20 years. And that wife you have already concluded he "abandoned?" She wrote the forward to his autobiography. They remain friends despite the break up of a 25 year marriage.
And let me prove to you your instinctive prejudice. Even as you read this post, you are finding an "exception to the rule." There may be an exception now and then but your prejudice remains unassailable. Animals who may be "bi" are not really homosexual. People who exhibit "bi" relationships ARE homosexuals. Women who are "bi" are more acceptable in your eyes than men, perhaps because you have a suppressed desire to watch them and then join in? "Bi" is sort of okay, like the dark skinned girl in my school who wasn't REALLY black.
Once prejudice grips your heart it is the driving force behind your view of the world and empowers you to shape your god into your own image. Jesus said to love your neighbors, but that doesn't include "sinners" like gays. He said to love your enemies, but homosexuals are that "exception to the rule."
And please don't rationalize your prejudice with appeals to the Bible about it being your responsibility to warn others about their sin. Jesus also said before you try to get that splinter out of another person's eye, you need to get the log out of your own.
From the far distance of the internet, that log appears to be a Sequoia.
A collector, Finn. Very twisted. You show yourself, rather than a link to your pornography of violence.
Look it up yourself if you hunger to see it. 148 people were murdered for being Christian and you whine about some people not getting a slice of cake, or pizza.

If i did not know that God is with me as an ever present help in times of trouble, i would dread this country having a government ran by fundamental christians.

You posted the graphic,bloody thing, and then you deleted it right after I called you on it. You took the time to collect and post this violent pornography. You are the collector. And now your think I hunger for it?
Blaming others for what you do. It is a typical fundamentalist excuse for their own poor behavior and action. Own it. I see you. God sees you.
