I think compared to many radical Muslims, there are many Jews and Christians more tolerant of gays or lesbians. Of course, that is perhaps the rule and not the exception as there are radical Jews and Christians that are less tolerant of gays and lesbians than than some Muslims.
There is no equivalent to Sharia law with Christianity. Homosexuality is outlawed in most majority muslim nations, and beheadings and tossing Gay men off the top of buildings is not uncommon.
So what, you’re saying there has never been a Christian nation that has executed homosexuals?
Most liberals still seem to view Christians as white people in the country.
The church I've just begun attending is about 1/3 white, 1/3 Hispanic and 1/3 black. It seems to be a bit of an odd duck having such an equal split. Churches, much like neighborhoods tend to favor a race or ethnicity.
I read a survey in which it disclosed more churches today are becoming more ethnicity related, which imo, is more odd than your odd duck. We were mingling, now, not so much.
I do not believe they want to kill them, however, they do believe it is a sin ...
You'll have to define, pedophilia. Child bride is legal in the u.s. (depending on State's laws) with parental consent.
In my grandmother's family born in the 1800's (no laws against) most girls were married by at 16. To not be, one was considered to be 'an old maid', (and shamed) which my grandmother endured that comment as she did not marry until age 18. (also, she was one of 9 children)
Cultures change over time; our perception of 'indecency' does as well.
Pedophilia is about sex with prepubescent children.
Most cultures throughout history viewed the onset of puberty as the appropriate age for sexual relations, marriage and/ or consumption of earlier marriages.
100 years ago, in the US, the age of consent for girls in most states was age 10-12. Delaware determined age.
Everyone of us is a descendent of a female who was substantially younger than 18 when she first gave birth.
Typical over-simplification by a one-issue poster who seeks to polarize the entire forum over the issue of sexuality -- and deliver it to the broad-spectrum, not-really-"liberal" Leftists who have duped him (and too many others).
The "examples" he references are far-removed from mainstream Christianity, and the Republicans and Libertarians he seeks to demonize.

Reason: HE
You always hear the liberal left complain and whine and accuse the Christianity for being ant homosexual when in fact religions like Islam actually kill homosexuals. Why is that?
Christianity is the predominate religion in America.
Does it matter which religion hates Gays more?

Endless brands of Christianity, Islam and Judaism in the world andsome trend radical.
