As Gerryh (our resident Catholic) will tell you, God hasn't said any of those things....man wrote them in a book.If you want to understand it from my perspective, God hands over to a DEBASED MIND the people that reject Him. (Romans 1:28 ) This gives them what they really want, which is the freedom to celebrate what God decrees is wrong, and the freedom wallow in their sin.
God said homosexual behavior is sinful. They embrace, celebrate, and call it "good".
God said He created life and gives it (and He makes no mistakes). They uphold "we know what's right, not God, killing an unborn child is an acceptable choice".
I think you have a mental disorder...I diagnose it as religious fanaticism.A debased mind, and its evidence of calling what is wrong "good" is in fact a mental disorder or condition.
Yep, all those programs like public education and universal healthcare that were introduced by the left mean nothing compared to giving a couple of hundred bucks to some child molester in a black robe & white collar.What exactly do leftists do to mitigate suffering? And I mean the big picture, not talking about giving a bum a toonie here. There are countless Christian charities that make a difference, yet the only solution leftists seem to offer is "tax the rich".
I don't know...things like spewing your radical religious views to the wrong person, telling them they have a mental disorder and then picking up your teeth if you can see them through 2 black eyes. No, seriously, you close so many doors with your views you are going to miss out on a lot of life....and teeth. ;-)Uh huh. What kind of problems? :roll:
I actually showed some of your rhetoric to my girlfriend's parents this afternoon. Both devout & practicing catholics, church every Sunday, in the choir, pillars of the local parish....they laughed and expressed concern for your soul.Not your Muslim neighbor, but if you're claiming to have Christian friends who vote left, you should ask them how they can reconcile voting for an ideology that contradicts the God they profess to believe. Does the bible not say that homosexual behavior is sinful? Then how can a "christian" vote a party that embraces the very sin God says in wrong? A good chuckle indeed.
You want science? A fetus is a parasitic bundle of cells feeding off the host until it breathes on its own.Actually we want to protect life, not control bodies. "Hands off my body" is a false argument because an unborn baby is not a woman's body. An unborn baby has its own sex, blood type and DNA.
I'll spare you any "religious" argument against abortion.
Science
Since Allah & Yaweh are one in the same that would make you a devil worshipper too! :roll:They feel like that because they're devil worshipers who read a book of hate.
Exactly the same thing can be said of christians...with you ion the radical category.What needs to happen to make a difference (short of another crusade) is the "moderates" will have to purge radicals from their ranks.... It's never going to happen.
I fear dumb-f*ck radical christians like you ever having an influence over the weak minded or even worse kids of your own.We should fear Christians praying in their own home because it drives people to pray in their own home? No Christian is forcing nor wants to force you to believe in God, pray, or attend church. Thanks for proving my point about the leftist mental disorder i.e. irrational fears.
Not normal for me but for a lot of priests and other christians it is.You think a guy sticking another guy's dick in his mouth is normal? First of all, stay away from my kids, and second, by calling perverted sickos "normal" and "healthy", you again prove the point that leftism is in fact a mental disorder. "What's good is bad, what's bad is good". This is the left's M.O.
Well since god doesn't exist (hate to break that to you) that means you believe some imaginary old dude who lives in the clouds tells you right from wrong....who has the mental issue here?That's right! We don't determine right and wrong either! Only God can do that!
If I'm going to read fiction I prefer sci-fi and detective novels.My opinion aside, this is the biblical position, which is that people like homosexuals (one example) have debased minds. Does debased mind not sound like a horrible mental condition to you? And I'm not stretching it, that's what the bible plainly says. Read Romans 1:24-32.
I can help you with this. You can step on your soap-box and preach on the street corner if you like and if anyone will listen. You can spew any rhetoric about traditional marriage you want. You can protest abortion as much as you want (as long as you don't interfere with them conducting their business or clients). What you cannot do is enact laws imposing your views on the rest of us.You'll have to define "crosses that public realm". What does that constitute? Preaching in public? Defending the traditional definition of marriage? Protesting abortion butcher shops?
Now just for a little giggle here is a short list of some prominent christian republicans and their exploits...
Top Five Republican Gay Sex Scandals | Badmouth
Mark Foley
U.S. Representative
(September 28, 2006)
The Crime: Sending sexually laced, gramatically challenged instant messages and e-mails to teenaged boys in the Congressional page program for more than 10 years.
The Hypocrisy: Chairman of the House Caucus on Missing and Exploited Children. One of the foremost opponents of child pornography in the Senate.
The Quote: “get a ruler and measure it for me”
Ted Haggard
Leader of the National Association of Evangelicals
(November 2006)
The Crime: Paying male prostitutes for sex and snorting crystal meth.
The Hypocrisy: A powerful force in the evangelical movement, Haggard participated in weekly meetings with President George Bush and top advisors where he gave spiritual advice. He taught that homosexuality was an abomination and actively lobbied against gay rights.
The Quote: “I did not have a homosexual relationship with a man in Denver.”
Larry Craig
U.S. Senator
Senate Liason for Mitt Romney’s Presidential Campaign
(June 11, 2007)
The Crime: Soliciting sex from an undercover cop in an airport bathroom
The Hypocrisy: Craig twice voted against adding the words “sexual orientation” to the federal hate crimes law. Craig also voted to give states the right to refuse to recognize gay marriage–a right they already had, but the Senator wanted to really, really prove he didn’t like gay people.
The Quote: “I am not gay, I don’t do these kinds of things.”
Bob Allen
Member of the Florida House of Representatives
Florida Chairman of John McCain’s Presidential Campaign
(July 11, 2007)
The Crime: Offering an undercover cop $20 to allow Allen to blow him in a men’s room in a public park. After being arrested, Allen tried to explain that he only offered to blow the cop because the cop was a “burly black man” and he “didn’t want to become a statistic.”
The Hypocrisy: Allen was one of 21 Florida legislators to sign Gov. Jeb Bush’s friend-of-the-court brief supporting the state’s ban on gays adopting children, and he co-sponsored an unsuccessful bill that would have enhanced penalties for “offenses involving unnatural and lascivious acts” such as indecent exposure.
The Quote: “I certainly wasn’t there to have sex with anybody and certainly wasn’t there to exchange money for it.”
Glenn Murphy Jr.
National Chairman of the Young Republicans
Chairman of the Clark County Republican Party
(July 28, 2007)
The Crime: Murphy got a fellow Young Republican drunk and then spent the night at his house. The other young man woke up in the middle of the night to find Murphy giving him mouth-to-penis resuscitation. After this incident, a 1998 sexual battery report came to light in which Murphy was alleged to have done the exact same thing.
The Hypocrisy: Murphy was a well-paid political consultant for Republican candidates and often advised them to use gay marriage as a wedge issue to paint their opponents as out of touch with traditional values.
The Quote: “I was in the Sound of Music in High School…don’t ask” (from his now-defunct Myspace page.)
