Let's face it, the so-called Christian conservatives do not object to bullying of gay students

[bluestateguy]

They oppose any anything that would even acknowledge this is a problem, much less try to stop it before it happens.

They may not come out and say it directly and publicly, but this is what they believe: that the gay teens who are bullied or attacked are getting what they deserve, and that such bullying might even be good for them if it gets them to repent and "change".

These fundamentalist so-called Christians are afraid that their children will not be free to mock, taunt, threaten or patronize their gay classmates, and that has them outraged. They have never regarded gay people as their equals who are worthy of respect.

In fact, a good many Christian schools bar gays from teaching there and even expel openly gay students (or encourage them to leave by way of shunning). This is the culture they come from.

1. They could give a sh** about gay students and also those not easily indoctrinated as

christian soldiers. In fact, they don't give a damn about anything I learned as a youth many decades ago about christianity. I left any form of religion decades ago, I'm so fed up with the BS and hatred.

4. Nonono! They hate the sin, but love the sinner.

Sure they want to psychologically damage the sinner, but they still love them.

[Angry Dragon]

2. Theirs' is a god of hate ............. the god of the old testament

so they can not call themselves Christians
for they do not follow the words and deeds
of Christ.

It is time for us to call them what they are,
they are terrorists and it is time to charge
them with crimes of hate.

3. and they would love to kill them....for god...

[WillParkinson]

5. They only shun out of love...

And the fact that priests are worried that they might take away some of the hotter boys from them.

6. Perhaps, too, it will upset some long-standing blackmail arrangements.

"What, nobody cares if I'm gay? Then the deal's off."

[Cleobulus]

7. Christians threaten themselves with hellfire and damnation all the time...

to be honest, why do we expect them to act any better than how they are acting now? They have no respect for human beings in general, but our culture, unfortunately, enables them to target GLBT people in particular, and teens most of all.

8. Let's Call Them What They Are....

Christian Terrorists......


The only sane approach to belief is "Deism"........


You don't need a person who is dressed in certain clothes, nor pay them wads of money, or make sure they drive the latest model Bentely to be able to convene with a higher power..... Deism gives you the "power", and the "permission" to make your own calls whenever, or where ever you like with no 3rd party meddling.


"Belief" is not the problem..... "organized religion" is a huge problem........ without a doubt.....


"Many" of the founding fathers of the United States were indeed "Deists"...... no matter how much the Christian Terrorists hate that fact.... it is indeed.... a fact!

"Deism in the United States

In the United States, Enlightenment philosophy (which itself was heavily inspired by deist ideals) played a major role in creating the principle of religious freedom, expressed in Thomas Jefferson's letters, and the principle of religious freedom expressed in the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. American Founding Fathers, or Framers of the Constitution, who were especially noted for being influenced by such philosophy include Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Cornelius Harnett, Gouverneur Morris, and Hugh Williamson. Their political speeches show distinct deistic influence."
