NO.

He said Religion fuels the anti-gay rhetoric.

That is not the same thing as saying that all religious people are homophobic. Some people are religious, but manage to retain a semblance of their common sense.

You need to learn to read, and stop being inflammatory. You do this all over the board, and it's incredibly irritating.

I think it's funny that you have all these issues with me - and you seem so upset and horrified by my one little comment! I like the commercial. I think the world could do with more love, hope, and understanding. Obviously, you disagree with me on many, many levels!
Yep! But not on the levels you accuse me of. LOL


Quote:
Honestly - judging by your many posts, I really don't value your opinions very much.
Coming from you that's a compliment my friend.


Quote:
I have a very different view of what love is from you. I have a very different understanding of right and wrong. If you want to continue to rail against me - that's okay.
Now I'm railing? Wow! You have a persecution complex. Conversations or differences of opinions are attacks, railings, bigotries. Lighten up for crying out loud before the strain fomented by your wild imagination becomes more than you can bear.

I still think it's a good commercial with a good message tha can help ease the pain of many people who think there is no hope and love in the world for them.
OK! I respect your right to your opinion regardless of how my view might differ from it.

You're funny. I don't have a persecution complex. I just think it's funny that I say that I think the world could use more hope, love, and understanding - and you go off on a tirade! You are still going off on a tirade! Read your posts - you certainly are railing! You can continue to do so - it's okay with me. Like I said - it makes no difference to me. Have a nice day!

Then why do you tag opposing views as bigotries, railings and tirades? After all, those words indicate that you feel assailed, harassed and threatened.

There you go again Jimmay LOL! "tirade". Now you are being hilarious. Actually, you are infusing more emotion into what I write than I am capable of generating myself. Perhaps because YOU are writing in a huff and puff vehement mode and imagine others doing likewise? Indeed if you could see me typing you would be shocked by the bored almost enigmatic Sphinx-like expression on my face. Anyway, if it makss you happy-imagine what you will.

We are on totally different wave lengths. When I say that I find your posts funny - I genuinely mean that I find your posts funny - meaning that I chuckle! I'm not in a huff at all! I find it amusing! I think it's funny that you keep going on and on when the only things that I've really said were that I liked the commercial - and that the world could use more love, hope and understanding. You can disagree with me - and it's obvious that you do - but it really makes no difference to me. I genuinely mean that, too. People disagreeing with me doesn't bother me at all. The world would be boring if we were all the same. I find it odd that anyone would disagree with wanting more love, hope and understanding in the world but to each their own! Keep smiling! I know I am!

Really? That's ALL you said? I could have sworn you said much more than that by the context within which those words are imbedded. But OK. Let's just say we agree to disagree and leave it at that.

This was my first post on here.

To which you oddly responded...

Like I said, I find it strange that you would have a problem with what I said - but whatever floats your boat.

Obviously what floats yours is defending a group of people who are known for trashing our Lord Jesus Christ. But as I said-let's just agree to disagree and be done with it.

BTW
There is absolutely no scriptural support for Christian hatred of persons simply because those persons might be deemed to be living un-Christian lives. However, pride of onself as a wilful urepentant habitual sinner who disregards biblical counsel is indeed condemned and certainly not encouraged.
Yet another strawman.

A veritable cornfield full of them.
