Ben Carson: Liberals Don’t Like Me Because They’re ‘Racist’ (AUDIO)

So you theorize that gay people, who grew up in the same world as you did, just don't "get it" ?.............Deep................
I think they choose and believe differently than I do and I am OK with them doing that. I don't believe they are 'right' and they very obviously believe I am 'wrong'. THEY don't have to believe the same way I do. People see things like sexuality very differently. If you think that is 'deep' then your mind must be blown on a regular basis.

No one is advocating the cessation of heterosexual sex...................As you like to make people aware of, it is the way alot of species reproduce.........................

Honestly, how can anyone take this man seriously? Sure there are racists on the left. Certainly more than their fair share on the right as well.

When you make inane comments like this man has, and you put yourself out there as he has, expecting not to be criticized on one's position is rather short sighted. Playing the race card just looks shallow.

The guy may well be educated. But he certainly looks stupid.

Like most politicians he said what he thinks his voter base wants to hear. And like most black politician he is willing to play the race card when it benefits him. Honestly this headline could have read "politician acts like politician" and it would have meant the exact same thing.

Nor am I advocating you stop doing what you are doing. Win win.
 
Feel free to show where I am thumping the bible..

You refered to the book of fairy tales as some sort of law. The definer of marriage etc. Just stop pretending you're soemthing other than a right wing nutjob who has sold out to the religious right like all your pals.

God's Laws supersede Federal Laws.

Whose and Which God(s). There are religions that have different interpretation of God and even the number of Gods. Which one(s) supersede's Federal Laws?
 
No Mr. Carson, I don't hate you because you're black. I don't even hate you.

Why I think you're a moron is because you compared homosexuality to bestiality.

No race issue at all.

Hmmm... what was the comparison he made?

And he couldn't even get that right. The OT doesn't identify pedophilia as a sin. Indeed, marriage to 12 year old girls was common.

Further nowhere in the NT is homosexuality identified as a sin (though oddly in Romans 1 is named as a punishment for idolators).

In short Vance is just doing anything to defend the ignorance and stupidity of Carson.

Actually it doesn't.

But if you're talking about Christianity, then Paul says in Romans 2 that anybody who condemns gays is a sinner. I guess they didn't teach you that in rightwing christian Sunday School

This is true...about those who condemn gays...but what of the gays themselves?...

God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
Romans 1:26-27

Could it be this that Carson was referring to, not he condemning but the scripture?

It's pretty simple. In Romans 1 Paul condemns idolatry. He says (somewhat weirdly) that God got so fed up with these idolaters that he gave them over to "unnatural" desires, which suggests that the natural desire was heterosexual (by the way he uses that same word to describe himself as an apostle that came after the fact), but they engaged in gay sex, as a punishment. Paul doesn't say homosexuality is a sin.

He does say clearly that ANYBODY who judges the sinners in Romans 1 is condemned himself. And of course that's exactly what Carson and the rest of the hypocrites are doing. As it typical, conservatives have turned the New Testament message on its head.

Rom 2:1 - Therefore you have no excuse, whoever you are, when you judge others; for in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things.

Turds of a feather.
 
Not in my goverment. Get back to me when you find God in the US Constitution.

Done in Convention by the Unanimous Consent of the States present the Seventeenth Day of September in the Year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and Eighty seven and of the Independence of the United States of America the Twelfth. In Witness whereof We have hereunto subscribed our Names.
No problem.
 
That was how they referred to dates back then. There are no references to God in the Consitution. But you go ahead and cling to that.

I bet he quotes the Declaration of Independence at this time, hoping nobody will notice the difference!

You didn't put any condition on it. I showed you God in the Constitution, so you fail as usual.

So tell me Einstein, how exactly does that refer to God? And how exactly does that infer religion and state are combined? Or that the US Constitution was written with God as an integral part of it?

Cue up the dodge.
