POLL Homosexuality

[EERs 3:16]

Yeah...what did happen to live and let live?

I’m not bothered and don’t really care about very silly (they all are...) religious rituals but rather just entertained. When children talk/listen/attempt to communicate with imaginary friends it’s cute but when adults do it...not so much. Again...still entertaining.....

So why does someone’s belief in a higher power bother you? Why can’t you accept that some people find joy and comfort in the belief of a God.....

It doesn’t bother me... ...as I wrote before. I find it amusing...’almost’ like a child with an imaginary friend.

I actually offered up my life so you can believe whatever you want...do whatever you want that doesn’t negatively impact the lives of other great Americans.

Same for gay people.... ...if they want a religious union (marriage) I don’t give two shits... ....but I did offer my military service for their rights too. So to that point I do take issue when people actively try to steal (like that Kentucky clerk...not saying you) something from them (even if I find that something silly but entertaining).

Offering your opinion on the topic is fine....acting on it not so much. Plenty of other people put a lot of effort acting on it and there’s zero reason for their efforts.

No?

It is impossible to start a statement with "All American churches..." and finish it with anything.

How cute

 

[TarHeelEer]

Sorry. That makes sense to me. I can get with that.

Oh just be that way. Been saying the same thing for years.

You’re sayin as long as a ‘church’ marries them as a ‘religious’ ceremony....it can be called marriage

why are you limiting things to just churches? what about jews and muslims or wiccans?

The ‘ ‘ denotes a loose interpretation of the word.....encompassing, in this instance, any religious org.

Ok? Marriage is a religious act. Civil union is a government construct. Separation of church and state, amIright?

Words can only have 1 meaning/uses?

So words don't mean things Mr. Clinton?

I married a woman, not in a church, by a minister not of my religious faith, while reciting vows written specifically for my wife and my god. Am I married?

That's between you and whomever married you. Not my business.

They do mean things. They can mean more than one thing.

Why can’t you just say the same for homosexuals then?

 

[TarHeelEer]

Why can’t you just say the same for homosexuals then?

I could, if the government wasn't defining it.

 

[WVUCOOPER]

lol. They've defined it for years for legal, governmental purposes.

 

[TarHeelEer]

So that makes it right? pfffft

 

[WVUCOOPER]

Maybe not. Just makes the whining funnier.

I do not think muslims go to a kirk, rather, they go to a mosque and not call it by its proper name is kind of an insult.

You can suck my left nut, cause I’d just hate to be insulting.

‘Church’ was used to cover all possibilities for the sake of the conversation on this db.....it also was used to signify buildings used for worship that are not official buildings of worship - as well as outside venues (like the Grand Canyon). Anything that would qualify as a religious venue: hence the ‘church’ instead of using the straightforward church.....fools can be insulted by a lot of things, even with explanations.

then you should have stuck to phrases like 'houses of worship' or 'places of worship'.....instead of using kirk in the familiar.

I didn’t count on you being a little bitch I guess.

Funny how conservatives are against all the Bullsh1t pc talk, unless it involves something they care about

Separation of church and state.....is that phrase insulting to Muslims and Jews too?

yes, esp. if you desire the government to be a theocracy.
