re: Which religion will stand its ground against the gay agenda? [W:743]
If God accepted everyone, like you seem to want, then what would be the point of life here on earth?
This is fascinating. For whatever twisted reason, you actually do believe that it is
hatred that gives meaning to life?
Of course, you are not alone (I've mentioned the Commies and the Nazis before), but what a remarkable sideways leap of faith - to imagine yourself an instrument of judgment on behalf of a hypothetical being, based on reasoning you or I cannot possibly comprehend...
There's a very simple and very sad alternative explanation, of course: The elementary lust for power. Force your neighbor to conform - or else.
Personally, I think it is disgusting, but clearly disgust wouldn't be a good argument, considering the topic. Moral considerations would not play either, since you have already jettisoned them to make space for your confessional taboos. But there is still one argument left - a cold, pragmatic, "conservative" argument: Your own personal safety - or perhaps safety of people like you, some generations later.
The State empowered to judge what kind of interaction between consenting adults is OK and what is not - such State will
not stop when it runs out of homosexuals (Jews, Poles, Gypsies, kulaks, "bourgeoisie", people wearing glasses...). The wheels will keep spinning.
The 20th century was a lot fun - check it out. And Hitler, Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot did not have computer databases and GPS tracking at their fingertips....
Have we learned absolutely nothing?
