Nice job!

6 million senseless murders. Sounds about right for your hallucinogenic, freaky monster-god.




God gives man free will to be as freaky as man wants to be. Don't blame God for men who both hate Him, and oppose Him. And don't blame God for His ability to know the future. And don't blame God for the spread of AIDs. When man opposes God, he often brings evil on himself. And then people often blame God for mans evil.

Doing as you described is in not supporting your child. It is condemnation and complete lack of compassion and understanding, and on a very deep level that you are still not understanding. Which is that being gay is NOT an action or behaviour, it is WHO A PERSON IS. And I can't for the life of me understand how even strict adherence to the bible can cloud one's intellect and sense of logic to such a degree that it isn't completely obvious that one's sexual preference isn't a choice. It's far too strong of a natural urge for anyone to deviate from it for any reason. Would You, Campbell34, be able to, at will, just decide at the drop of a hat that you want to be intimate with a man? Assuming you are straight and attracted to women as viscerally as most men are- of course not. And nor would anyone else, for any reason.

I would honestly hope that regarding child rearing, that you would make sure your child knows that he or she is exactly the way he/she was made to be, and everything that makes them unique, special, and perhaps different is a gift from god. And if you do otherwise then I'm sorry, but it is you who is giving the finger to god.

I wonder how the "wisdom of the scriptures" has affected all the young boys who were infected with AIDS after being raped by homosexual priests?

"Uganda is one of the countries that attach great importance on promoting abstinence among our youth, said Ahmed Ssenyomo, minister counselor at the Ugandan Embassy, in a speech to the African American Youth Conference on Abstinence.
See Sanspeur's post - from the 'horse's mouth"

I think you got the wrong end of the horse.

Speaking of giving the finger....I wanted to use the first picture in this google image search.

jesus disagrees - Google Search

But I didn't want to offend those Christians who actually try to follow Jesus Christ and the two greatest commandments. Unlike Campbell.

HIV is on the upswing again in Uganda since the US Christian Fundys have got involved in Uganda promoting ONLY "Abstinance only" and spreading misinformation about condom use.
Christian Fundys?

In 1993 the nation of Uganda elected Yoweri Museveni as its President. Museveni just happens to be one of those Christian Fundys, and he asked both church leaders, and educators in a conference to teach the values of abstinence and monogamy. The results have been dramatic. Ten years later, the new incidence of AIDS in Uganda has dropped by 66%. I dare you, show us any other country in Africa that can make that claim. It was an "Abstinance only policy that has brought such a dramatic slow down in the Aids infection. Not comdom use.

About Uganda

I am certainly not blaming God.....Actually I hold people like you in a large part responsible for spreading AIDS and other STDS and killing thousands. How can you even look in the mirror, and where is your conscience? In my opinion people like you are guilty of murder, and if I had anything to say about it, would be held accountable.

It is freaks that oppose God that have brought about the deaths of so many. Not Christians. And when Uganda elected Yoweri Museveni as their president, who is also a Christian. He had both the schools, and the churchs push the Biblical view of abstinence. Over the next ten years, the infection rate from Aids was reduce by 66%. Those other countries who still push comdoms are still dealing with increased Aids infections. Only a person deep in their denial, could ignore these kinds of facts. And the ones who should be held accountable, are people who ignore such facts.

Homosexual priests, are just non Christians whereing priests clothing. Jesus tells us we would know true Christians by their works. Priest that rape boys, are not Christians. They are men that deceive, and they deceive themselves. And in the end, they will receive their just reward.

Then his father must be burning in hell, as he was described in your bible as being a coprophiliac and baby murderer.

Or maybe god's not a christian.
