Jeff it is really petty to go after a small minority of people. The Bible doesn't seem to give homosexuality much weight, and yet you have some inner need to rail against gay people every day. Does your behavior make you the pinnacle of morality? If someone who was not familiar with the Bible were to read your anti-gay posts, you would lead him to believe that the Bible is nothing more than a primer for gay hatred.

1) The majority of your "good caring bible-believers are selective in whom they care for.
2) your kind of Christians are selective in their biblical "understanding" understanding it as did the Pharisees--not the Spirit of Jesus regarding Scripture.
3). Comparing homosexual love to incest, pedophilia, and bestiality indicates the depth of your own sinfulness.
4). Do you need proof? Just look at the response from the non-believer to your "witness." Still driving people away from a loving God. That's following Jesus' command, alright.

Nice way to celebrate Resurrection Sunday.

How about--HATE and BIGOTRY certainly are not christian traits..both of which you appear to harbor against the LGBT people?

When YOU actively work to prevent others from having access to the same RIGHTS (the 14th amendment) as YOU have, you are DISCRIMINATING even when you attempt to use the bible to justify that bigotry.


SHOW us ONE example of where Jesus treated someone DIFFERENTLY just because they were not in line with his ministry or considered an outsider?

In fact, Jesus made it a point to show that we are to treat EVERYONE the same, even if they are a Samaritan...

Ok as long as you stop forcing Christian business owners to deal with same sex marriages.

Should Christian businesses be allowed to refuse service to someone who yells "Oh my God!" when they stub their toe while walking in the front door?

Why does one sin get all the attention?

How would you propose to make that happen? (Remember, it was the baker in question that brought the issue into the public arena, not the happy newlyweds.) Were the customers supposed to read the minds of the bakers before they walked into the shop?

The Bible gives about as much weight as it can against homosexuality. It is described as an abomination, defiled the land, destroyed nations, unnatural, and people who engage in it with no inherit the kingdom of God. I can throw it back on you and say you have some inner need to rail against Bible believing Christians on a daily basis. And your side throws up like two pages of responses to every small comment I make.


The things of God are good. They do not have consequences. One only has to dig back a few years before all the PC whitewash campaign to find that promoting a homosexual lifestyle for society is not good and therefore, God did not design it.

It is not hate or pettiness to speak up when we see our religious freedoms be quickly degraded under this
one sided broad scope banner of discrimination law that you want to favor only one side. It is not hate or pettiness to speak the truth that this is sin and a destructive lifestyle.

Nope we just don't want to get involved with same sex marriage. Why the need to complicate it?

The government does not acknowledge the religious affiliation of business owners. Christian business owners who serve the general public, must abide by the same laws as other business owners.
