There are many things that are innapropriate and one way to be effective in that situation is to use family drug intervention california with your loved ones. No matter if they are straight, gay, happy, or sad, you should confront the one you love and make them get help!

Which for me, undermines its credibility as the literal word of God, since a loving God wouldn’t order us to kill people, an all-powerful God wouldn’t need us to kill for him, and an infinitely wise God could come up with a less revolting alternative.

Amen, brother Bill. That’s fucking articulate, and should be pasted into the front of every one-god religion’s book. If what’s written in there doesn’t meet that logical threshold, it’s probably not really your god’s words.

Well put as usual, D. Sidhe. I wish I was one-tenth as articulate.
In answer to an earlier question: Yes, I know it’s wrong to kill someone. But I certainly wouldn’t have learned that from reading the Bible, which advocates killing people for a variety of reasons, including, according to the Leviticus (mis)quote, homosexuality. Which for me, undermines its credibility as the literal word of God, since a loving God wouldn’t order us to kill people, an all-powerful God wouldn’t need us to kill for him, and an infinitely wise God could come up with a less revolting alternative.

You bet, Steve. I’m intolerant of people who want to make other people artificially miserable. They’re bullies. Telling people they should feel guilty for being gay? That’s bullying. And I’m intolerant of that. If you want to make yourself miserable because you’re gay and your god says you shouldn’t be, well, I guess that’s your business. It makes me sad, but it’s your life. If you want to be miserable because your god says you’re a sinner of some other stripe, that’s your business too, though that makes me equally sad. If your sins are hurting people, may I suggest trying very hard not to do them anymore, you’ll be surprised how well that alleviates your misery. If your sins aren’t hurting other people, I’m not sure why you think they’re sins.

My gods, and I thought the Christian god, teach that it’s the soul that’s important, not the body. Why else would you guys be over here witnessing at us? As a bisexual, I’m responding to and loving the person inside the body, not the body itself. With any luck, gays and straights are doing the same thing. Isn’t that what a just god would demand? Where’s the sin in that?

The only sin that matters is hurting people. And telling people they can’t love each other over something as inconsequential and ultimately finite as a body is a sin.

You may honestly believe that letting people die without your god and go to hell is hurting them, and that you must save them from that. But that should be a form of love. And none of you are showing very much in the way of love. What you’re displaying is judgment, which is definitely looking like a form of hate. You’re here to warn us that we’re going to hell, not so you can save us because your efforts are calculated to do anything but, but so that you can feel better about being saved yourselves. That’s greed, hatred, anger, selfishness.

I can’t imagine why you think your god would approve.

Yep.

I do love the self-falsifying statements.

Thanks for playing. Now run along back to your just-so stories…

That’s tremendous, actually.

Religious zealot: Your behavior is sinful and you will go to hell.
Homersexual: That’s kind of a dickish thing to say, man.
Religious zealot: YOU’RE BEING INTOLERANT OF MY BELIEFS THAT YOU ARE UNCLEAN AND EVIL AND ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE GOD-AWFUL NIA VARDALOS VEHICLE “CONNIE AND CARLA”! YOU ARE A HYPOCRITE!

Gays scream tolerance and acceptance. Yet you are the most intolerant people around . It’s their way or no way.

Yes, everyone has to have gay buttsecks NOW or I will stone them.

this life is as good as it will ever get for you, this will be all the reward you will ever receive

This is the only place I can agree with fundies; the difference is that they except themselves from the rule, and I don’t. Life is the reward, so I refuse to spend it engaged in pointless sacrifice and miserable piety.

Candy, the more you rant the more you prove that the word of God Is true.

How exactly?

That might be okay but it’s the “ex-gay” (in this case “ex-dyke”) loonies that I can’t stand. I’d like to keep those out.

(Pssst. Batman’s not real either. Sorry.)

I suspected. But don’t start talking shit about Superman or we’ll haveta dance or something equally vague and euphemistic.

Christians are fun. They are even more fun than regular trolls because they are so very very sincere in their stupidity. Could we lure more in from time to time? Maybe a trail of heathen kittens leading them over from a born-again singles site?

And those eggs you got on Sunday? There really isn’t an Easter bunny.

I have a joke about that!

Q: Why does the Easter bunny hide the eggs?

A. He doesn’t want anyone to know he’s been screwing chickens!
