And you know why that is? Because the koran doesn't forbid sex changes.
Seriously. The 7th century book doesn't forbid sex changes, which didn't exist back then. It's like giving credit to the culprit
It is still monstrous to force homosexuals into sex changes on threat of death
What is the "Christian world"?
No doubt. And surely you realize that with a few changes in particular words above, it would be an equally apt description of issues on the political left and a lack of tolerance there, as well, as this particular episode highlights. It just could be that both are wrong, but I wouldn't want to be the fellow that points such a thing out. I have better things to do.
How did this place close when they just got 50k from Gofundme?
Catholicism, Orthodox churches, and Protestant denominations.
Statistically, though (and depending on the region you live in, of course), if you're a white hetero Christian you've probably never encountered discrimination from a minority. Okay fine, yes, a lot of us might have encountered that one taco vendor who had a bug up his ass one day and refused to sell us a taco, but it's not an endemic problem for the majority.
Basically by providing their services for something that is supposed to be (in their eyes) just be between a man and a woman it is showing that they are accepting sin. That they are promoting sin by "helping" it along. By providing a means to contribute to it.
Actually, what the Qur'an doesn't forbid is the use of science. It's seen as something that comes from god to them. As such, Islam ironically embraces sex changes.
Yes, I've read the reports from the "New Civil Rights Movement" too. However, it's based on nothing but allegations of there being a report. The actual issue however is far more complex than your one liners and silly allegations.
So every Christian on the earth is opposed to gay marriage in your opinion?
No one claimed the Christian world was obsessed with it. However, there is very little doubt that there is a sizeable Christian population in the US that is obsessed with regulating morality and whitewashing their hatred of homosexuals.
The whole "protected class" thing has to do with Affirmative Action laws. Laws are not Rights and they do not confer any Rights. And the 14th Amendment talks about equal protection under the law. It does not state or even imply that private businesses or even private individuals are not able to discriminate. If it did then you would not have the Right to boycott any business that held a view opposite of yours. You would HAVE to give them your money.
That is not where i got this notion. I saw a documentary filmed in iran in which an actual iranian teenager was warned that homosexuality is illegal and was steered into a sex change, "because the koran doesn't forbid it." I then looked into it further and i see nothing that contradicts that example.
tol·er·ance
/ˈtäl(ə)rəns/
noun
noun: tolerance
1. the ability or willingness to tolerate something, in particular the existence of opinions or behavior that one does not necessarily agree with
please see the bolded part. you evidently don't know the definition of tolerance either.
you don't get to pick and choose which part of the word you like.
you don't get to re-write the definition of a word to justify your argument.
what does their spiritual life matter? sounds like a strawman to me.
the fact is people that say they are tolerant really aren't but it makes a good sound bite.
This is the 3rd time where you've proven yourself to be completely unable to understand a simple sentence.
What part of that says anything about every Christian being opposed to gay marriage? Please, embarrass yourself for all of DP to see.
Not the quote thanks.
Be honest at least.
You as usual posted a generalized statement about the "Christian world" and then said to you it meant every major religion.
And then presumed to speak for it.
And save the personal; insults...it may make you feel smarter, but it's boring..
Could be worse though. Plenty families still totally reject them upon finding out.
Should businesses be able to refuse Christians?
Obviously your opinion is that being gay IS NOT an immutable characteristic. Being a skinhead, neo-nazi is assuredly not an immutable characteristic. They like to wear their blatant bigotry on their skin - and usually in a place to be seen in plain sight.
Now if a person was born with a swastika birth mark...that would be an immutable characteristic. While it's still a symbol people might find offensive, the birth mark wasn't by choice.
So in my opinion, your objections to gays is like telling blacks that they can't go the grocery store until they take off their dark skin.
Yep, a good friend of my brother's - a very good human being by any account other than he's homosexual - was so completely disowned/rejected he didn't find out about his mother's illness (cancer) or death until 2 months after her funeral, so dad, and two siblings, couldn't bother to make a phone call, send an email. They'd send b'day or Christmas presents from him back, unopened. Would hang up if he called. Etc. Pretty sad.
An Indiana pizzeria remained closed on Wednesday, embroiled in a national debate after its owners said that they would not cater gay marriages due to their religious beliefs.
Read the article here: Indiana's 'No Gay Wedding' Pizzeria Has Closed
I don't claim to be an expert on this, but how many gay weddings are followed up by pizza parties? :roll:
My guess is that these people are declining to serve people who would never be their customers.
This is not unique to gay people. A lot of families do a lot of awful things to each other.
That is, when there used to be a lot of families. Those days are gone.
How did this place close when they just got 50k from Gofundme?
I'm not sure what the point is - because some other families are equally cruel, it's OK or something?
Well, that's not true. Every child has a family, just not a 'traditional' family.
