ORIGINAL: respectmen No religion is GOOD and yes, christians do too. But at what rate are christians showing hate against gays compared to muslims? This is going to sound weird. The problem with most religions is that people muck it up. A part of that personal opinion is why I identify as a person of faith, rather than a religious person. Maybe there will be a thread on that someday. I know this is going to come of rude without it being intentional, but, you've got to be kidding me. At what rate are Christians showing hate against gays? I consider that a constant from some my entire adult life. Did a Christian man just shoot up and entire nightclub? No. However, we've enacted anti-gay legislation for decades and every time a form of such legislation is being pushed, look who is behind it. So many of the random acts of violence, people shouting "God hates fags" at funerals, and all of that crap. Who do you think does that? Is it all Christians? No. However, we have to admit that it's some. quote:
Look what's happening outside of America for example. Not just about homosexuality, but political correctness in general and why the left keeps protecting muslims. http://www.channel4.com/info/press/news/c4-survey-and-documentary-reveals-what-british-muslims-really-think 52% believe homosexuality should be illegal 23% would like to see Sharia law in England 39% believe a woman should always obey her husband, as opposed to 5% of English overall 31% consider it acceptable for a man to have multiple wives The problem I have here is that we've got some of that as the history in this country and it wasn't really that long ago. (Not the Sharia law, of course.) We didn't just have a majority that believed homosexuality should be illegal, we literally made it illegal. I'd be afraid to see an opinion poll from fifty years ago to see the percentage of how many Americans believed a woman should always obey her husband. The courts are still messing around having polygamy laws challenged, though that's more from cases from those identifying as Mormon, and a number of those cases stem from the state of Utah. It's tempting because we know certain people of a specified faith have done some horrific things. Don't think I don't know this isn't a popular opinion, especially in the wake of the Orlando shootings this past week, but I keep coming back to we have to blame the person who chose to commit the acts.
