Anti-Bullying Speaker Curses Christian Teens[W:165; 667]

Afterthought: this somewhat reminds me of when my Dad decided to preach a sermon against racism when I was 15 - Some church members actually walked out. Two, I remember quite clealry, came over to our house after church that afternoon angry - ready to rip my Dad a new asshole only to discover I was the only one at home. . . and wasn't going to tolerate my Dad being run into the ground for any reason by anyone.

Maybe like... 100 bullied gay kids will go crazy and eliminate 1000 homophobes in their high-school with guns or something...
then it'd be like... evolution, social darwinism, all that awesome stuff they believe in... and theyd be happy to be dispatched into the next life...

Um, the thread IS about Savage's comments about christians hypocritically using the Bible to bully/condemn gay teens. Are you not following along at all?



Um, he is not an "expert on bullying", try againIf you want to equate his calling journalist students walking out on his speech "pansies" with bullying gay teens that leads to suicide....well there you are.

My take is that you are trying to prove that Savage is an "expert on bullying" because the title of the thread implies it....to you.

My take is also that you can't form a specific question for me to answer.....that I haven't answered before.......after you "thought" I was not "following along".

Go away, Billy.

How do you know that hasn't happened? Because it didn't make the news?

You don't have to be homophobic to not want to be bullied.

Yes... because the news tends to tell us what happened.

I assume you assume that it has and the media is a giant conspiracy that hates christians...

just a guess...

if you think that... that's pretty ****ing stupid...

Journalist students listening to criticism of the Bible should not cause them to leave the room, nor is it "bullying".

Christian people hating gays because 'it's in the Bible' - or someone saying 'knock it off - stop using the Bible as a battering ram against people' - which one's more 'wrong' -

If it's ok for them to criticize and judge *with* the use of the Bible then what he did was also perfectly acceptable.

:shrug:

I've been to church quite a lot in my life - if you think what he did was Bullying then you must also realize that a lot of what's being taught in Sundayschool and preached about from the pulpit is also a form of bullying.

Seperation of church and state...
also this guys wasnt state sponsored...
and the state needs to fire at radical christians with rubber bullets...
thatd be awesome.
 
It's amazing to watch the same group of hardliners who condone the murder of various brown people across the globe, who regard their president as a communist usurper, and who sympathise with war criminals lining up to get butthurt over someone calling bull****.
Calling bull**** isn't bullying, the man's point is made. Calling somebody "pansy-assed" isn't bullying either when they already left the room 'cos their poor widdle feewings were hurt. They'll have to sit through a lot worse as grown-up journalists, maybe they're not cut out for that kind of rufty tufty career.

Do you agree homosexual students shouldn't walk out if it were a devout Christian speaking against the sin of homosexuality?

Do you think also calling those said students "pansy-assed" when they file out, "cos their poor widdle feewings were hurt," will be acceptable to you?

homos should walk out, the devout christian is a whack who cherry picks his bible verses as he sees fit, in essence a radical hack and not an actual christian

evangelicals among others are radical cults from late in the 20th century... theyre hokie redneck voodood spookoo crap, to actual Christians...

The guy was doing exactly what he was "supposedly" talking against. When some of the Christian children walked out he called the "pansys". Thus he was his on prime example of what not to be/do . . . . . cut and dried.

Interesting that he used that particular slur. :lol:

I think what he probably wanted was "candyasses."

You should reread what you just posted.

Do you think you're being fair?

Really?



Savage isn't addressing a few ugly kids calling a gay kid a faggot. He's addressing kids being tormented and brutalized to the point where they want to commit suicide. THAT IS NOT COVERED BY "FREE SPEECH".



This from the guy making bull**** comparisons, backtracking and then making the same comparison again less than 3 posts later is rich.



No. It would not. He's not getting in these kids faces, following them home, harassing them through facebook, beating the living **** out of them, etc. He called out an editorialized group of nutbags to the acclaim of people in crowd.

You're so dishonest in your comparison it's almost laughable that you have the balls to deny you're comparing the two.

Why does it always have to come down to balls? Why is insulting another man's "manliness" the ultimate insult?

Again, the equating of criticism of the Bible....with.....an attack upon a persons sexual orientation (something that god did).

Sure, if I was walking out if the speaker was criticizing a book, I would be a pansy. That is fair.
 
Really? You'd be a "pansy" by the conventional non-floral definition?

(1) I think you err in this comparison. Not everyone believes in the concept of sexual orientation, and not everyone believes the Bible is just a book. To be fair I'll say that gay kids find their gayness to be important to them, but you must also acknowledge that those religious kids find their religion to be rather important to them as well.

(2) I believe you have tunnel vision, seeing this issue from a rather secula/liberal pov. If that it the way you wish to measure things, I don't think that's what makes a good discussion.

A wimp...because someone criticized parts of a book......and I am a journalist student? Yep, I'm a wimp.....and shouldn't be a journalist.

Maybe everyone shouldn't call others names. It's possible for a Traditional Christian and a Secular Atheist to have a respectful conversation.

yes... by extension of what i said the radical Christians are not logical and attempting to emotionally harm other people...

as in... Christians that believe they carry out divine authority by using their personal favorite excerpts of holy texts to further their own egos without actually gaining any knowledge...

and the gays are merely trying to exist...

sooo... put the Christians in jail for all i care... they can parametrize some means to spread a punishment to them for instigating suicide in others through their invalid religious beliefs...
