Reply #228: You know, I guess even that isn't a religious slam.

Maybe a paranoid one, but you aren't saying that Jesus didn't exist or that God is dead. You are just saying that all Christians are out to get you, or at least enough so that you have to watch your back.

I can't argue with that. I don't know how physically safe you are in places where, eg, a gay man is killed and his corpse left to find out of a feeling of impunity. I don't know how much of that is the god hates fags mentality as opposed to just plain homophobia and hate, but it's got to be some. At least, it adds to the feeling of impunity.

But DU, and the democratic party, isn't that place. No more than you can doubt the straight men here on their, well, not-gay-beating up anyway.
