Amazing. I saw this same issue presented a much different way over on Brightons blog last week and Deb talked about it a week or two before that only on a more personal account. It amazes me that people do that. The funny thing is people that yell the loadest are usually pretty bad themselves.

First of all, I think I should take first swipe at these idiots. It's Vocabulary 101 with Mrs. BG.

A 'fag' is an abbreviation for 'faggot.' A faggot is a bundle of sticks.

I would then have to ask these fucknuts how exactly one enables a bundle of sticks. Does one put the faggot away from the campfire or fireplace? Perhaps one just soaks the fag in some water to avoid burning proceedings.

Interesting. I just adore *vomit* the religious right. They're so damn judgemental and self-righteous.

Did these idiots some how corner the market on the "Bible for Idiots" book? Did I miss the Cliff Notes version where the big book said something about casting judgment on others? I say not.

Prove to me that having sex with someone who is a willing, loving, committed partner is wrong; same sex or not. G'head.

Whatever would I do without them yammering inane shit while holding offensive, ignorant signs in my face?

What the heck is a "fag enabler?" My god, these people aren't even coherent let alone intellegent.

I think some people forget who God is. I am not saying taht one lifestyle is right and another is wrong.

I am saying it is our place/job as Christians to do right and show love. It is God's job to touch a person's heart. He has the greatest way of LOVING people to Him.

Sad thing is is that by the time some people finish doing what they think He wants them too, they chase other's so far away from Him.

It works both ways though. For example the cross that stands in the memorial in San Diego. Why is it ok for certain people with thier certain views to protest it?

Why isn't everyone outraged over that? I am !

The memorial cross in San Diego was put there to remember all the deaths in both world wars, if I got it rigth, but I think.
That symbol is there for the loss of people of all colours and all religions and to remind us, the people after that time, not to be so stupid to throw life away.

Wars can only start with stupid closeminded people like the ones in that picture. I really cant understand how the minds of those people are funktioning.

I always thought that religion was about loving your brother and forgiveness. Just don't get me started on this one it makes me so angry.

They forgot 'God is Love and Love is God' ?

Repent or Perish. According to me, they have to perish! I know I am taking a strong stand there. It's jusst because how easily these people are convinced and they go so easily as a judgemental person and say some ridiculous stuff like these things. According to them, alternative lifesstyle is a choice and it is not normal (btw, I would love to ask them to define "normality" and who are they to define 'normality' in any way?) I want to tell them that alternative lifestyle is not a choice. That's how things are.

One heterosexual man or women woke one day and said to himself/herself 'Ok, today I know that I am hetersexual and I am going like my opposite sex' ...so the same, no homosexual person woke one day and said this. It just comes. That's the way it is. No choice or no abnormality in it.

If they say that "faggots" are abnormals and they have to perish. I say "ya, buddy, likewise"...

What a lot of people forget is sin is sin. The bible says that one sin is no worse than another.

We all sin and fall short of His glory. At least I do.

They need to be reminded that fornication, covetisness(sp.ch), lying(more sp ch), hate are also sin. Maybe we should all just walk around sporting signs.

I myself will continue to show love. Judging other's is not my job! I will however fight for what I believe in, and that is GOD!!!

Right on Sistah!

If I had ultimate power ....

(you guys are all shiverin in yours shoes now, huh? LOL) .....

But if I did, I'd toss each hater in with a loving family of the very people they profess to hate. Alone, away from other haters, feeding each others fire, I believe they would see each other differently.

We exist to love. And yearn for acceptance. Our hearts swell with emotion when a stranger comes to our aid in times of trouble. A hug, a smile, can turn a bad day completely around.

It's so simple. And yet seems so far out of our reach. Why, I wonder, can't we just love each other?

The Beatle's were dead on when they wrote that song, "Give Peace a Chance." If only.

You know, maybe that's what heaven is. A place where, people just love each other. Where no one feels "less than".

I just read the post below. I laughed so hard I shot Diet Pepsi through my nose. Thanks for that!

I can't add anything to this conversation that hasn't already been said. :-)

You know the funny thing ... if people would just ignore them they would go away. I am not saying do not pay attention, just don't publicize things, don't report it. The same thing happened with KKK rallys around my neck of the woods. As long as they got people all fired up they kept showing up. When hardly anyone showed up they went away for a long time.

If no one was there to take that picture then that group would go away too.

Only the gay ones Denny.

;-))))

What's a fag enabler? Is that a naked guy that bends over and yells "stick it in my ass"??

what the hell is a "fag enabler?"

sounds like a "as seen on TV" device of somekind.

anyway...

i'm not religious. but assuming there is a god, there is really nothing to forgive.

its just people being themselves.

now if you're ken lay, or these hatemongering protests. now those fuckers might wanna ask for some forgiveness.

Yay Crabby! Well said babe.

And i really like your idea for a solution too. Intelligent and well-thought-out. (No suprise there... heh.)

` What's especially interesting is that God really hates shrimp! I wonder if those people ever ate at Red Lobster?

` What's even more interesting is that God apparently doesn't hate 'fags'. The passage in the bible that people cite actually says that a man should not lie with a man in the way that a woman lies with a man. Right? It doesn't say the other way around...
` You see, the bible was for people of upper status, and anal sex was one way higher-status men humiliated and tortured prisoners. To receive said sex act from someone with lower status from yourself was an abomination, but it doesn't say anything about not screwing prisoners!
` Notice it also does not say anything about lesbians! Apparently, God doesn't have any problems with gays, just the way that certain men might be treated by those below them.

` In fact, God even allows his son to be friends with 'fags'. Really! Here's a picture of Jesus hanging out with a really gay guy and his crazy boyfriend!
` Behold the tolerance of Jesus!
