Christian hate group looses fight

[WarEagle]

No no no WarEagle, if they repeat it enough it's true. Just like how homosexuals are born that way. It doesn't matter what science says.

I know. It's just fun messing with them and watching them hang themselves.

Canada: Population 33,000,000. Same-sex marriage legalized over five years ago. 75% of the population in favour. No fire and brimstone yet.

And how big do you think Sodom was? Denmark has a population of 5.5 million. The largest city in the ancient world was Rome, which peaked at 100,000. If you're going to argue that scale and population matter when attracting the dubious wrath of a deity who's been AWOL for quite some time, then it might be worth considering the facts.

Sodom and Gommorah were areas within a region. Rome eventually fell(and it was more than 100,000). God would not destory a whole continent like Canada because the population is scattered. It would be a much more concentrated area. One that is known among the world for indecency and that actually takes pride in it, like California or New York. And we can already see whats happening to those 2 states. Massive pollution, crime, rape, disease, high AIDS rates, murder, feminism, abortion, divorce, drought, fire. Dosen't take a genuis to see that its a ticking bomb.

Hate group?

What is your evidence that it is a hate group?

This sounds utterly over the top.

BTW... Christianity and Hate do not mix:

1 John 2:9
Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates his brother is still in the darkness.

Its even more rich than you might think at first glance. Not only did the "Christian" hate group's own natural allies (hillbillies) turn their backs on them they said that to attempt to pass such an ordinance would be "unquestionably unconstitutional". Which of course it would be.

So you have a supposedly "Christian" activist group suborning sedition and a bunch of back-water County Supervisors actually have to teach THEM a lesson on the law. ROFL!

I am glad that at least you understand this group is not Christian but I take offense to the notion that rural people with conservative values can so easily be referred to as a demeaning term as hillbillies.

You are supporting legislation that prevents kids from being called pejorative words for gays but will call the people who disagree with you a pejorative word?

 

[Polycarp_fan]

It's so ironic that the people claim to be hateless are often the biggest purveyors of hatred themselves. I wonder what this group has to do with you? Did they call you names? Steal your car? Burn down your house? None of the above, but you still vent your hatred for them and narrow mindedness toward their values here on this board.

These are the same kinds of people that mocked and ridiculed Noah and cheered on the rape of Lot's visitors. The purveyors of filth think it obscene to promote a moral family. Jesus taught about these kinds of people. The Apostles never tired of warning the Church about them.

Let them have their day (again). It to shall pass.

So the notion that women deserve the same rights as men is just as bad as murder?

 

[Ryal Kane]

Lot tried to convince his neighbors to rape his little girls.

Who in turn, got him drunk and slept with him to continue their line. And he was the BEST person in Sodom and Gomorrah?

As a side note, I'm pretty sure ancient Rome had over a million people.

Pretty San Francisco morality. Also, Lot's daughters thought they had to carry on the family line. Shows you how corrupted Sodomites can get you. Moabites were detested peoples by the Israelites. Buttttttttttt, Ruth was a Moabite. Shows you how a heart turned to God can be made pure. Ruth is a grandmother of Jesus. Ahhh, now all those wierd stories are making some sense.

As a side note, I'm pretty sure ancient Rome had over a million people.

As a side note, Roman culture was like what present day liberals and progressives desire in a society. Approving of gay sex and all. Christians were rejected by the majority Roman populace for their stance on morality. Until things went from bad to worse, then Christian morality seemed very good indeed. Then things went from good to bad.

Sound familiar?

 

[Isambard]

Well, yeah, that's pretty much what John 3 says some people will do.

On the other hand, there are a lot of atheists who have been born again as a result of reading the Bible.

You got it backwards champ. Most atheists are former christians who left their religion after reading the bible. To highlight my point, I regularly substitute passages from the bible with passages from the Similarion in discussions with christians when they go on about me not knowing their book. Gets me everytime when I see them clap their hands at the switched verses. lulz.

Rome didn't fall till long after it embraced Christianity, and was approving of gay relationships until then. Funny how "god" never got around to punishing them several hundred years while they built up their empire, and only punished them after they became christians.

Thank you for pointing out this fact

 

[Illuminatus]

I went and looked it up, and estimates range from 0.5M to 1M. Not sure where I got 100K, it hasn't been *that* long since I read Gibbon.

 

[Trevorocity]

I know. You think that's something, you ought to see what Jesus did with the Pharisees!

That's funny because Jesus did have a lot of criticism for the Pharisees because they were hypocrites who condemned other men while ignoring their own flaws. They demanded everyone else uphold the old law (leviticus...cough...ahem...cough) but frequently oppressed the people. Good job, you hanged yourself on that one Pharisee.

Good ol' Bible based Christian morality. You know it's ok to do stuff...like supporting slavery, beating slaves, supporting putting to death adulterers, homosexuals, people who work on Sundays, blasphemers, supporting ethnic cleansing, genocide, selling children into slavery, sanctioning the rape of female captives from a foreign war,execution of prisoners, the sacrifice of children for God's help in battle or to end famine, executing kids who curse their parents.

Could you please substantiate those charges by quoting New Testament passages?

 

[SiderealExalt]

.Look them up yourself. Oh and you'll find some in the OT oh and don't forget out Revelations. Now if you want to, you can in fact back peddle on your God is eternal and never changes stuff.You are free to make excuses for the evil acts sanctioned and committed by the Christian God in the bible, and are indications of said figure's moral compass.

Or as one author put it when discussing the moral implications of the disgusting immoral acts sanctioned by the "Allmighty".

"To devote one's moral reflections to constructing elaborate rationals for past genocides, human sacrifices, and the like is to invite applications of similar reasoning to future events."

The Bible is, at best, morally self contradictory. While many of us find that we are glad that the Christian of the modern day is far far far more likely to espouse to, promote and try to exemplify the more positive moral aspects of the bible. It does not excuse both the Bible's moral failures, or the actual real actions of Christendom throughout history. Nor does it make excuse for Christian ipso facto attempts to declare a moral superiority based on slow cultural changes of hearts on moral issues.

 

[tulc]

I guess it's a good thing for Canada that we're now under the New Covenant and God no longer punishes entire nations like He did under the Old Covenant.

Then you agree the fires in Cali have nothing to do with legalizing gay marriage?
tulc(doesn't think so either!)
