If you are impious, or possibly impish, you could replace the word perverted with imperfect and upset fewer people. I'd still argue with you, but it might be more constructive.
I'm not a nicer than Jesus Christan. I'm to the point and direct in my statements. And as far as being constructive is concerned, well, that is a laughing matter here in this forum. Perhaps you would agree?

Satin don't you mean Satan?
How long have you been a Christian?
That is funny just because people are nice to other people doesn't make someone a Christian. You don't say to a muslim or buddist, "oh that is very christian of you for walking that old lady across the street.

Being gay is repellent and an obimination in the sight of God and anyone with on ounce of common sense.

Originally posted by StarrmanI totally agree Starrman, I think it is really sick that people continue to use religion as an excuse to rack up hate speach against groups of people they don't understand.

I just don't see how being gay can be a choice, you can't just choose to be attracted to those of the same gender; and why should go against there very own nature anyway? If they are born that way surely God made them that way on purpose...if he exists at all.
Originally posted by StarrmanYour own words convict you of hypocrisy. Your words are the words of hate.

Originally posted by StarrmanSaying " I hope you end up in hell" is hateful speech.
How can you possibly say that with a straight face? My words are the only sort of words someone with a view like yours deserves. How am I being hypocritical?
But I would never hold that against you. It doesn't really bother me. After all, I have said some mean things to people myself.
The issue here is about homosexuality. I believe it is wrong based on my christian beliefs. But you can't accept that, so you then get all worked up over it for some reason.
We don't have to agree you know! We are free to believe what we want without fear of some one stoning us to death. And we are free to live as we please as long as we don't hurt anyone doing it. That's the law of the land.
And so is free speech.
Originally posted by Bad wolfI couldn't agree more...the key word is speaking cruelly and heartlessly about those whom you don't understand.
I think it is really [terrible] that people continue to use religion as an excuse to rack up hate speach against groups of people they don't understand.
Nobody has any right (or even basis) to say that God himself desires to punish homosexuals for being themselves.
