That is unfortunate, for the Christians as much as for anyone else. It's sad to see people so blinded by hatred and bigotry.
I would liek to see how the church is involved in world politics directly. i would appreciate information to back yous statement
Every religious group that accept tax exempt status is, ultimately, subsidized by the taxpayers.
Nope, Tithing and thier own direct investments are how the church makes money, look up an arttcle written in 1997 by tiem magazine with which the LDS church made the cover. Everything the church gets in excess of what they use to buy property, build temples and churches, and maintain them, is put into thier plants to produce goods that sole purpose it to be given away.
Of course you don't. Your church has taught you that your bigotry is righteous.
See my below comment.
You believe we are very confused, you believe we should not have equal rights, you speak out harshly against our relationships and believe that by being who we are, we mock God. But you aren't bigots, and you don't look down on us. Very convincing.
You should not have "marriage" rights. you can have all your Civil union, whatever you want to call it,i could care less what you want to call it. but, it should be a completely separate entity from the term "Marriage." I never said you should nto have equal rights. I only stated that Marriage has been pre-defined and that youa re the one who wants to change it now. i believe that in order to be married you should complete the requirements to actually be "Married" (Marriage being the lawful union of a Man and a Woman).
I said the ACTS are what mock's god, not you, you forgot to quote where i said that we have members of the church who believe they are "gay" but refuse to act on those urges because they know it's wrong.
If we were truely bigots we wouldn't allow anyone who has declared themselves as "gay" to even join the church. we only disallow them to enter temples if they act on thier urges.
Your church leaders are bigots, and it's dishonest to pretend otherwise. If you prefer not to hear opinions contrary to your own, it's not a good practice to ask for opinions on a public forum.
You are the one who doesn't like to hear opinions contrary to your own. I appreciate comments contray to my own because they help me to understand other people and to see a broader picture than i did before. you are the one who doesn't have self control over your mind. you are the one who can't wait to finish reading this to reply with yet another vague and un-informative post. Youa re the one posting blatant derogatory comments towards my church and it's leaders.
i posted where homosexualy conflicts with modern christianity,i never called you names, i stated facts.
you have yet to actually provide any real evidence to support your opinions.
