You may joke. I don't think Clirus is though. She/He/It also wants homosexuals to be killed as well. It's like hesheit is a pretty radical Irani Muslim supremacist cleric. You know the kind who sends people to blow themselves up to stop a perceived evil. Like goldfish stores. Evil goldfish stores.

Man must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love.

Advocates of capitalism are very apt to appeal to the sacred principles of liberty, which are embodied in one maxim:
The fortunate must not be restrained in the exercise of tyranny over the unfortunate.

Most music I listen to doesn't mention God one way or the other, so it can hardly be thought to generate hatred... and the more I listen to my brother's blues collection, the more I hear a great deal of respect for God.

So really, clirus, what music has you all in a twist?

I used to be all about Norwegian Death Metal. And Black, too!
You know, guys like Antestor, Extol, Ganglion, Frosthardr and Drottnar. Really rock-solid great Christian guys with a really powerful ministry in and through extreme metal.

Democrats are fighting with God with their health care/welfare policies
Considering the fact that there are people in this country dying right now because they have no health insurance, I would doubt that.

Making health care affordable isn't a "handout" - it's common sense.

i think god is a lot smarter than either you or i and could know when someone really hates him.
i doubt next to any, even the most extreme music could be called true "hatred" of god.
unless you define really fuzzy guitar riffs and hard drum beats as hatred of god.

Ah, you gotta love Clirus's "Christian" morality. Music represents hate of God, but firing squads are from...what...the Ministry of Love?

I believe many people are dying right now because they are living the Atheistic Lifestyle that leads to disease, death, destruction and poverty, but not from no health insurance.

A person having health insurance does no good if they continue in the Atheistic Lifestyle that leads to disease, death, destruction and poverty.
