I agree that it says much about those who say no to supporting that which is in opposing to what they are tryng to teach.

I can't open my newspaper without being bombarded with homosexual content. I turn on SPORTS talk radio and was deluged with homosexual talk. Everywhere you turn it seems that homosexuality is the talk of the town. So why are we talking about it so much? I would guess it's because the homosexual agenda is being pushed so much.

cruiser_96;1437241 wrote:Ok.

But immorality is immorality, as you pointed out, numbering it #9,612,000 on the list. Even if it was #9, 612,001 it would still be immoral. And how in the world can we expect to be social correct if we are immoraly wrong?

It's not 14 AD any more, most of us have become a little more enlightened, it's well past time we pull the others into the modern era.

Ok.

Heretic;1437252 wrote:Reps on the use of actual logic. Prejudice is prejudice, even if it's tolerated/supported by religion. And religion should be no excuse for prejudice, especially when you consider how much of the bible is cherry-picked by christians as worth following and how much is simply written off as laws of the time put into writing (even though the fact those books haven't been removed/heavily edited to reflect that).

EDIT: Also, I don't think it is fair for you to assume a) I work for a school district and b) that the school district is dogcrap. Show me some love, in peace, with forbearance and kindness. Use gentleness and some self-control please. No need to hate.

Keeping a kosher kitchen was a matter of public health as opposed to a matter of God telling someone he gives a flaming fuck about how people keep their meat and dairy. Procreation was crucial in the days of small populations and short lives. Not anymore.
