Sounds like you would like a taliban-like theocrasy.

You are certainly entitled to your opinions, but that's all they are. Your opinions.

And in MY opionion, your opinions about gay people are uninformed, prejudiced, hate-mongering and unsupported.
I am saying that Christians wouldn't have to thump the bibles if the state would do what is righteous. When the state acts ungodly we can thump the bibles.

God is love and there are many times when he was angry in the bible. Jesus even beat the money changers in the synogogue with a whip. So, I am angry when people wantonly sin and are violently evil.

Does not God Chastize those he loves? So, to do I, who seeks to correct those who are lost to sin.

Loving people does not mean that I have to accept all of their evil ways. You are confused with what love is.

Since I love humans, I will correct them so that they can come into a loving relationship with with God the Father.

I am confused as to what love is? No, actually, I'm not. You really don't know me at all.

You can be a Christian and you can think homosexuality is a sin. However, in this country - it is not illegal. There are many commandments that are not illegal. If you want to live in a country where homosexuality is illegal - please move to one. You can even move to an island all by yourself and you can make all of the commandments illegal. Have fun.

Comparing gay people having children and families with someone having sex with dead people and animals?

You're opinions disgust me.

Therefore Murder=Homosexuality as far as sin is concerned.

It is written "the wages of sin is death". Both the Murderer and the Homosexual will have to pay the same wage for eternity in hell.
So this means saying god****it is equal to murder, rape and theft. Well, I guess we can see where you stand.

Sounds like you should move to a theocratic country...In fact I wish all of you bigots would do just that...Maybe you can get together, buy an island in some far away remote area and form your own government based on your bible....You won't be missed...

Darn...I should have read Dewdrop's post before writing this...Oh well, great minds think alike I guess....

So you would like to live in a Fascist State where you could imprison (or perhaps stone to death?) anyone you personally view as "unrighteous" or "ungodly" according to your version of what your God wants?

Exactly...What you see above is a bonifide member of the Christian Taliban.
