so now you know how it appears to us when you claim that fundamentalists hate gay people. nothing could be further from the truth. i appeal to you and others here to show us anywhere in our posts where we have stated anything that resembles hate speech or where we have ridiculed or insulted someone during the course of our discussion. i'll wait.

Good grief, it's 2018 and people are still out there trying to preach homosexuality is a sin and people should repent. They're simply born that way, no different from anyone else.

move on.

So you are still chickening out on responding, huh???


Dislike is not hate, and I have absolutely ZERO issue with fundamentalists who keep their beliefs where they should be. Only the ones that try to force the world to adhere to their beliefs and standards, even at the cost of other people. No "hate" though, just pity and dislike.

Well, I guess this would make sense to a fundamentalist...

there are many studies that have findings that claim yes, they are born that way and no, they are not. it just depends on which side of the fence you're on in regards to what you believe.

I don't think I've ever claimed that fundamentalists hate gay people? (Sadly, I have known people who certainly have behaved as if they hate gay people and used the bible to justify it.)

You don't see the difference, do you? When we are talking about fundamentalists, we are talking about your beliefs and the things you do to harm others, whether purposely or not.


When you are talking about gay people, you aren't talking beliefs. You aren't simply saying, "Well, I disagree with you about gay people, and here's why." No, you are trying to deny them basic rights, such as marriage and the ability to shop where they want to. You are telling them that you despise everything that they are, that they are abominations headed for an eternity of torture for loving someone of the same sex... Do you see gay people trying to deny basic rights to fundamentalists? Do you see them advocating for different treatment of fundamentalists? No. You see them asking fundamentalists to follow the law, and stop discriminating against them


These two things are in no way similar. At all. The fact that you think they are only shows how out of touch with reality you truly are.

You mean it depends on if your narrow-mindedness and prejudice overwhelms your decency, empathy, and common sense.

News flash the Bible is the mark of the beast taken in hand than read to forehead. You think it is holy you are marked in the beast. You see its evil you are not marked in the beast. It is that simple and no religion or religious book varies from this fact to date. I am in fact a true God judged pure of heart and Chosen by his Spoken word. Devils were there to bare witness.



This is a perfect example Hate made for anyone loving outside what we are taught to love. Love is never wrong or a sin. and sexual relations are a free choice and not sin. GAY PEOPLE DO NOT TEND TO MAKE MORE SOULS FOR HIM TO ABUSE! It is that simple. and he created a word for you to hate them by! same as he gave christians a reason to hate other religions.



The problem the Devil has with this is simple he wants to kill as many humans with disease and age as possible before he and his kind are made to stop.



So anything he can teach you that will make you feel just in cause for your hate for another he and his kind will empower. If religion was the answer than why is it that they all differ and lead to hate and killing all those that oppose what ever book you follow? You think I lie? OKAY THAN EXPLAIN WHAT HELL IS TO ME AND HOW THAT DIFFERS FROM WHAT I JUST SAID! IF DEATH WAS THE ANSWER THAN WHY DO DEVILS STILL LIVE IN ETERNAL FLESH? THE MASSES ARE FALLEN AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN. I AM THE FIRST TRUE PROPHET TO KNOW THE HOW AND WHY OF IT!

THIS WAS ALLOWED FOR THE LESSON IN EXPERIENCE OF BEING EXPOSED TO EVIL BUT THAT TIME NEARS ITS END. LUCIFER AND HIS FAMILY BLAME ME FOR THAT AS HE CHANTS I HATE YOU IN MY EARS EVERY WAKING HOUR! THIS IS NEARLY OVER JUST TRY TO BE GOOD!
