I suggest you go there and argue that with those people. I am a Christian, not a Moslem.
You're not a Christian. That would you require you to follow Jesus Christ, and you don't. Can you stop trolling already? It's way beyond pathetic at this point.
No wonder we have such great difficulty reaching people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. No wonder professions of faith are down, baptism's are down, church attendance is down. Who wants to be a part of something as hateful and judgmental as that?
The sad part is that those believers are sincere, but lack even a basic knowledge of Scripture. Oh, they know all about the Law, they know all the do's and don'ts, but nothing of forgiveness, nothing of grace, tolerance and love. In other words, they know nothing of Jesus.
When Jesus said, "Suffer the little children to come unto Me," he didn't mean so that they could be taught songs like that, especially at such a young and impressionable age.
I can't help but believe Jesus weeps when He sees stuff like that done in His name.
While I am appalled at the lyrics, forum and response, ... this isolated example of incredibly poor judgment does not provide a license to automatically trash all Christians and the Bible.
Isolated? I have seen 3 examples of this "isolated example in the past week. And those are just the ones that have made it to you tube.
In that respect, there are far more examples of the far left seeking to impose their 'gay agenda' on kindergarden and pre-school children...and on society in general, under the auspices of 'equal rights' -- when, in reality, the goal is to impose the equal funding of homosexual lifestyles on an American public that doesn't want it!
We aren't trying to teach children that it is ok to hate, kill, or isolate behind fences people that you don't agree with.
Again, this 'redneck' version of "Aint no homos gonna get into heaven" ... particularly, as done in rote by a small child, is shameful and not an accurate or valid representation of Christianity.
I really love the way everyone has their own view of what christianity it. Why don't all christians just worry about their own relationship with their chosen deity, and STOP worrying about what your neighbor is doing wrong.
Still, the Bible has some very specific things to say about relationships between men and men, and women and women -- and the notion that God and His Word can simply be innored or ridiculed is the height of foolish arrogance. (eg; Romans 1).
The bible has been translated, and edited, and translated, and edited, and translated a few more times. Who knows what was originally written down by MEN who claimed to be speaking for their deity.

And yet people like you who don't understand verses like Romans 1, and think it has anything to do with gay people, are the same people who teach children a song like that.
As long as you continue to misrepresent 5 out of context verses in the Bible and use them to condemn gays, we will continue to see children being brainwashed with such filth.

If 'you tube' represents the authority in your life, it's no wonder you are all riled-up --- Do you look beyond the social networks or positions that only support your own?

We aren't trying to teach children that it is ok to hate, kill, or isolate behind fences people that you don't agree with. Not sure who "We" is, but, overly dramatizing an opposition to homosexuality is not synonomous with "teaching children to hate, kill or isolate behind fences" -- Do you have real examples of the latter (beyond radical Muslims)?

I really love the way everyone has their own view of what christianity it. Why don't all christians just worry about their own relationship with their chosen deity, and STOP worrying about what your neighbor is doing wrong. 'Christ'-ianity is a belief in Jesus Christ and following His teachings ... as led by God's Holy Spirit. Love and concern for the lives of others is a fundamental tenant of Christ's teaching ... even though many of us don't do as good a job of that as we should. (eg; "Love your neighbor as yourself" -- 2nd greatest Commandment).

Sorry, but, there is no verifiable truth in that often referenced, but, totally false 'mantre'. It is only used as an excuse for totally ignoring and rejecting God's Word of truth. As Mark Twain once said, "It's not what I don't understand about what the Bible says that causes me problems, ... it's what I DO understand.
It appears that you have a pretty strong anti-Christian and anti-Bible bias ... that is based more on inflamatory rhetoric than truth.
The Bible makes it quite clear. Homosexuality is a sin. Unrepentent sinners are lost.
The Bible is a work of fiction written by men who, in different circumstances, would've gone on crusades looking for pots of gold at the ends of rainbows.

Then repent now, and often.
