wrong binks. You should always respect the views of others even if they're insane.

And the award for best Straw-Man of the week goes to Hitchslap! Congratulations! You win absolutely nothing.

I switched gays with blacks, and religion with racism. Other than that i said EXACTLY what you said

Back to the original post...

1) What does your roommate being an adult film star have anything to do with your support of gay marriage. You know they don't do film porno in your apartment. I bring this up, because associating gay marriage with making gay porn videos is inappropriate.

2) By your logic, your question should also read, "Why Christians should support sin." because you equate gay marriage to every other sin, as they are all equal.

Then, you give a long explanation about why homosexuality (gay marriage) doesn't bother you or hurt anyone, so you don't care. I doubt you could make that same argument about other sins. Eg. It really doesn't bother me when you kill someone else.

So by extension, do you even think homosexuality (gay marriage) is a sin?

No, you made a straw-man analogy that does not correlate. You're attempting to present two very different issues as if they're the same, when they're not.

Nope same exact issue

In fact at the time interacial marriage was prohibited, the bible was the primary justification for it, just like now with gays

Hitchslap go cry tumblr no one likes you.

"I switched gays with blacks, and religion with racism. Other than that i said EXACTLY what you said"
Religion is protected by the Constitution (even if you don't like it). Racism is not. That is the difference.

"Jesus advocated for the poor and spoke out strongly against the rich exploiting the poor, the very basis of libertarianism. You CAN'T be a Christian and a libertarian. "
1). Look up what libertarianism is before you make shit up.
2). YES, YOU CAN. Look at my profile picture.
3). It is a sin to waste money, but you can be a rich libertarian who gives to the poor. A thriving capitalist economy benefits the poor more than redistribution of existing wealth. People should help the poor, but it should be through Church and charity, not government.

"In fact at the time interracial marriage was prohibited, the bible was the primary justification for it, just like now with gays"
That may be true, but WHERE in the Bible does it say interracial marriage is a sin? It is not explicitly stated, unlike gay marriage.

To Conservative: I think gays should be allowed to have civil union and say they are married and the like, but I do not think the church should perform services for them. Of course, the church has the final say, but I would leave my church if they performed a gay marriage.

As GeneralPE pointed out. Interracial marriage is not directly forbidden by the Bible, this was a myth made up by racists who simply used the Bible as a facade for their own ends.

Secondly, you missed the point of my post, by a massive mile. Whether the people who oppose gay marriage are right or wrong is totally irrelevant. Nobody deserves to be punished just for holding the "wrong" political view. Do you honestly think it's fair for people to be totally ostracized and have their lives ruined just for saying something that the homosexual community didn't like? Should someone be treated like a pariah because an old tape resurfaced that proves they used the n-word once in their life?

Modern social justice relies on mob mentality and disproportionate retribution to achieve its goals, and they say it's justified because they are "morally superior". So, answer me this, do you think using said means are justified just because a person believes they're in the high ground?

You forgot something, who cares about what the bible actually says? Is america a theocracy?

No (unlike most Muslim nations), but Christians (who make up the majority of the nation) follow the Bible. And this wasn't about if gay marriage should be legal, but whether Christian's should support/accept it. You are actually just retarded on this thread. Just leave.

If i start a racist religion, it is protected by the *second (edit: first) amendement too. Doesn't mean i have the right to discriminate people based on race, even if my holy book say i should. Same with gays and the bible

Another thread filled with arrogant people, who can't feel empathy for anyone or anything, apart from their massive ego.

If you have a legitimate religious belief, you should be able to refuse service to people your religion does not approve of. However, you should not be able to harm them.

who cares about what the bible actually says?

Religious people do, and now they have others trying to force them to go against it.

Is america a theocracy?

No, it's a democracy. Which means you don't take freedom away from one group just to bolster another. You have the right to be gay, you don't have the right to force other people to perform your marriage or cater your wedding if they are deeply against it.

I've noticed you keep falling back on racism comparisons. Is your argument that un-stable you have to keep shifting the focus in the wrong direction?

On another note, I must congratulate you. You sir are a champion of evasion. Once gain you completely ignored the main purpose of my post and tried to distract the argument in a different direction. You failed to answer any of my points regarding underhanded tactics being used by so-called "social justice" activists and also ignored the point about religious liberty being stepped on (Although from your previous posts it's easy to gather you don't give a single dime about religious freedoms except the ones which apply to you).

I'm only reading half your post and making short answers because i don't have the possibility to do anything else atm Eklypse. I'm on my phone

excellent post eklipse
