I won't go as far as some here, but I will state that I believe you and others like Jeff have created a climate in which these things can happen, and in which some people rejoice that it happened . You cannot make , year after year, the denunciations and comparisons to bestiality and pedophilia ,claiming homosexuals are destroying America, Gods wrath is upon them with HIV and such, God sends earthquakes and hurricanes as punishment for accepting homosexuality , etc, etc, without it having an effect . You say you have the right to point out they are sinful by the standards of your religion, and that's fine . But have the courage and honesty to accept the climate you create concernin gays when you do this .
You have Christian pastors who have celebrated the deaths of 49 supposedly gay people. As far as I know they are still in their positions as pastors of a faith that is supposedly a loving faith . How is this possible ? It's possible because folks like you have made it acceptable to compare homosexuals to animals and blame natural disasters on them as punishment from God .
To the extent you create and foster this attitude towards them because you view them as sinful, you help create the climate for this to happen .
Liberal insanity! An Islamic terrorist kills 49 people and it's the Christian's fault. These animals have been killing their own and others for thousands of years. This is NOT a gay issue-it's terrorism! You people are flat nuts!

Are you guys really this dense? Let me repeat something that has been said to you guys about 100 times already on this thread.
NO ONE IS BLAMING CHRISTIANS FOR THIS ATTACK!
Let me repeat myself since you guys apparently have trouble reading...

People are saying that you guys help foster this type of attitude. People are saying you guys think the same way as this Muslim, you just don't act on it. People are saying a lot of things, but saying that it is your fault is not one of them. Maybe that you share in the blame, since you run gay people down on a daily basis and allow room for this hate to fester, but certainly not saying it was your fault.

You should really get someone with a better ability to comprehend the written word to read my post to you and explain it .
To aid you in trying to grasp my point, please think about and answer this question . Why can Christian pastors rejoice in the killing of 49 people, say they don't feel sorry for the dead people, and say they deserved to die , and still be able to keep their job as a pastor of a Christian church ?

Calm down, little jimmie. I know it's difficult for you to accept but you bear some of the guilt for this atrocity, as do all fundamentalists of any gay-hating stripe.
You may be the only poster here who is wrong more consistently than Finn.
My statement was incisive and on the mark: Fundamentalist Christians have blood on their hands. You, among them.
No, you said anyone who "rails against" homosexuals have blood on their hands. According to your own argument anyone who rips against Christianity, which is most posters here, have blood on their hands every time a Christian is murdered.
BTW, can you show a post where I "rail against homosexuals"? I ask, because I can't recall ever railing against them. You, in the other hand rail against others with basically every post you write, including the one I quoted here.

Same nonsense! My Southern Baptist church rarely discusses homosexuality and we never act in a hostile way towards homosexuals. We're not all the Westboro Baptist Church. We had NOTHING to do with this act.

I have never read where Jimmie, Jeff or Vizio stated they hated gays, maybe it is you that likes to stir up hatred while drinking your beer and making trouble as I doubt you really could care less about the individuals who perished in this terrible macabre of killings. I think there are a lot on here like that who love to hear themselves be big and bad and how oppressive they can be on an individual. Trout you need to look at yourself first as there is a lot of hatred in you.

You bring up one church in a thousand. You need to get real.
