Patently false. As an "evangelical" Christian, I've never known a single church -- not even of the Westboro Baptist ilk -- that would do something like that.

Furthermore, I'm outraged at what happened to those young men who were beaten. I'm a Christian, so I follow Christ's commands to love all, even people who are gay. Christian does not equal anti-gay.

Unfortunately, while that should be the case, it doesn't manifest itself that way. No group is demonized more in this country by Evangelical/Fundamentalist Christians than gays.

No excxuse, please do not make one, there is NONE. Punks is what they are, are we now suppose to beat up any one we disagree with, or don't like how they look too.

I'm sorry Gays don't have to prove a thing, to those straight bigots, that cannot put up with Gay people, it is one's own problem. Cowards are what they are, in a group, oh yes they are powerful, get them alone and it is a different story. Gay people are not the problem, the problem is those who cannot tolerate gay people at all, you have a problem. Get over it, Gays are here to stay, what are guys like this going to do, beat up every gay guy they see.

Sounds like a challenge to me. Of course, then I'd have a thread about me beating up a poor weak momma's boy wouldn't I lol

From a truly Christian perspective, that is a tragedy. The Bible does NOT call Christians to judge or condemn those outside of the church. Instead, we should show love and grace.

Also, not all evangelical Christians are fundamentalists . . . there is a difference between the two terms. For example, United Methodists are evangelical, but not fundamentalist.

Or maybe they could simply stop committing crimes against nature.

In order for it be a crime against nature, it would have to not exist in nature. And yet it does. You fail at logic, biology, and human decency. Congrats!

Aside from the conservative stupidity in this thread, I do find it ironic that blacks are some of the most anti-gay people around.


Why do you find it ironic?

That's because those animals attack in packs like cowards instead of one on one. If you had bothered to read the article you would see the soldiers were outnumbered and ambushed when they stepped outside.
