For doing what?

Reason I ask is that's illegal.

Yes, it is illegal in some states, it still happens. And no, it is still legal to fire someone for being gay in many states.

I haven't personally been persecuted (unless you want to call what the Christians haters on here do, persecution) but, daily throughout the world, many are persecuted or killed.

Many are, and not just Christians. All sorts of humans from all sorts of categories and groups are persecuted. So is there any real point here to playing the victim?

That doesn't happen around Austin TX. (not in my completely Conservative county) A lot of places would rather you be Gay from my POV.

You people make out like because I don't approve of the Gay lifestyle or SSM that I hate them...I don't.

Only people I see playing victim are the usual suspect...homosexuals.

That's because most of these calls of "christian persecution" tends to be victimhood deflections. But playing the victim is a rather common tactic these days.

I couldn't agree more on BOTH accounts

Oh yeah sure, because I'm sure even though you want to deny gays rights that you love them. :roll:

Didn't use the word *love.

The only thing I 'deny' is the use of the term marriage which they stole as an act spite.
 
WCH said:
Because I consider them in the same category as other depravities. That's enough reason. IMO.

I trust the knowledge that has been passed down to mankind from God. I spent a great deal of my life ignoring his word and now know I screwed up.

I wish I had taken the knowledge I learned when I was young and applied it to everyday of my existence.

you need reasons for all of those things to be considered depraved mind telling us what they are? if those reasons don't hold up simply considering any of these things to be depraved is senseless

you have not shown a god condemns anything you have not shown why god would be rite to condemn homosexuality

you have not shown homosexuality screwed up your life or any ones life

or even how considering it evil on faith has helped you

I don't question the knowledge. [mainly because it makes sense to me]

Sorry Dude, I can't help you.
 
WCH said:

though in this case you would be using the correct word to say a ssm is a marriage since its included in the same legal institution

They break the laws of their country and get punished. That's what depravity will get you in certain places.

Those countries write those laws because they believe homosexuality is BAD for their society and against their religion.

No one group OWNS the word marriage, so nothing was stolen. You want to deny their use of it when YOU and others don't OWN it.

Against all Christians, not necessarily me.

If you read all my posts you would see I said I've never been persecuted for my beliefs other than on the Internet.

Me? Never. Others who actually are gay? Lots, up til around this last few decades. Killed, imprisoned, castrated (both chemically and physically), raped, tortured, involuntarily committed, and prosecuted for all sorts of various "crimes" for simply being homosexual, crimes that got them put on sex offenders lists or put in jail for life, just for daring to be in a relationship with another person of the same sex. I'd call that persecution. And it has been happening for much longer, in various cultures, depending on the time, than 2000 years (not that Christians were truly being persecuted on any grand scale for that time, since they had major power in many parts of the world for a good portion of that time, to the point where people who weren't Christian were being killed and/or imprisoned or "converted" by Christians for not being Christian or believing as they did).
