Your innocence is quite lovely ryupower, but denial and pretence cannot change reality, no matter how hard it is to accept.
Catagorise? Lump whacko's with 'decent christians'? Name occam a christian church that says gays will not go to hell The catholics? The anglicans? The protestants? And does not that gaggle of faith..represent christianity? they seem to think so. Occam
Is there any reason, pertaining to this reality, that warrants their position? I understand the whole it makes God mad bullshit... but maybe something about how gay people are actually negatively affecting society? If you want to fuck with people's lives you best have a good reason. The problem is that people base their decisions on something that isn't REAL in any practical sense. So when I see stem-cells and the shit possible with it in action, I see nothing but good, for reasons I could go into. But the religious posit a claim that is completely fucking arbitrary, without the concept of God, which is unverifiable. Congressman should be able to hold any belief they wish. But as a public official they should explain themselves in rational terms. References of God and Faith placate to our feeble emotions. It is not fair, it is not wise, its not progressive.
most are dipshits............ ........suppose that could include most of the population............wether their christian / athiests / spaceheads / republicans / tories / pigs / soldiers / traffic wardens ........etc etc ........... man the list could be endless.
First off, the "protestants" are not a church. Protestants are all of those denominations that grew out of the Lutheran reformation. Anyhow here are some denominations that do not believe that Gays go to Hell. Episcopalians (sp?) Methodists Quakers Jehova's Witnesses Mormons (believe that Gays probably won't go to hell but might) Seventh Day Adventists Old School Unitarians and Universalists (most of these are in Central and Eastern Europe) United Church of Christ
Professor Fantastic So some religions are not insane. [regarding this issue ONLY] Please, now list all religions that are insane. [PS. SO it's 'protestantism' is it. Then why is there a 'protestant' church 4 blocks from occams house? And a protestant section in the graveyard?] Catholics for one. For they send EVERYONE WHO ISNT CATHOLIC TO HELL Catholic dogmata is so illogical that the smart catholics escaped into the jesuit order, hoping to escape the horror of mindless unquestioning dogma. The movie CONSTANTINE is about the insanity of catholic dogmata. And as such, is a comment on the evil of religion taken litterally. But what of moslems..the sunni and sh'ites Are they insane? Occam
