But what if they agree that they ARE Christofacists (I prefer Christian Taliban myself, since fascism implies an economic component to the derangement)... and they want to be TOLERATED for their intolerance and bigotry?


I don't know how many times these dolts need to be told that embracing tolerance DOES NOT mean embracing their bigotry as valid!!! They made THAT up in their heads!

Why do the "people who don't approve of homosexuals" think they can use the most vile language to describe gay people (seriously, pedophile? On what grounds?) but as soon as ANY response from a gay person is made, the gay person is accused of name-calling?
I don't call gay people pedophiles - I state that both pedophilia and homosexuality are wrong and call out hypocrisy of people who say anyone should be able to marry whomever they love - but then deny that "right" to certain groups - like pedophiles.

Do you deny that some pedophiles are homosexuals?

What purpose is it to bring pedophiles into the conversation AT ALL? Unless its to do what YOU'RE doing, which is to try to get people to make a connection in the mind, that homosexuals must be pedophiles. You're making a point that if A equals B and B equals C, than A must also equal C.

After 48 pages, I have to conclude that my premise was correct when I began this thread....There are a lot of homophobic bigots in the US, some far worse than others....What amazes me is how some try and defend their position by accusing those that support equality for all, of what they themselves practice by calling us the bigots....

They claim the we are bigoted against their bigotry, an amazing lack of logic! Others claim that we are bigoted against Christianity, or whatever belief the hold dear...It is just not true....I do not care what religion you are or if you lack belief at all, if you are of the opinion that homosexuals do not have the right to be treated equally and with respect, you are a bigot...What is hardest for me to understand is that these people will vote against equality, even though it has no effect on their lives at all...They can keep their bigotry, but should learn to mind their own business.

You know nothing about Canada do you...Until you do you should shut up.

Constitutional Law of Canada:.... Freedom of Expression in Canada

Section 2(b) of the Charter states that "Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms: ... freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication.

You've really got it bassakwards. The law of the land, ie. the constitution already says that homosexuals have exactly the same rights as you. Read the 14th amendment. And by the way I'm not gay, liberal, or a fascist. Just an ordinary citizen appalled by the hypocrisy of cafeteria Christians.

Certain politically incorrect speech is illegal in Canada and can get you in a heap of trouble. Does Canadian law prohibit "hate speech" against gays?

Yes, in certain instances, those being inciting violence against any group or persons. This includes everyone, not just homosexuals.
