Ok i asked another similar question and that lead me to another question. Do u think that the bottom quote is true? If you do or dont please explain. Im excited to read the answer to this question from a white persons perspective.

400 years of slavery and Whites there will always be a "invisible or visible divided line between both races", there is just too much history there for it to ever be anything else.

It just doesn't make sense. A man and a woman can get married, but for two people of the same sex to get married, it's illeagal? Why? I mean, sure, most people use the Bible as a reason. But if people just put down that damn bible for a bit, do they have any good reason? If two people are in love, why not get married? I'm not saying people HAVE to, but if they want to, they shouldn't be denied that. Aren't all men created equal? If so, shouldn't a gay man or woman be allowed the same rights as a hedrosexual? For someone to get married to someone of the same sex isn't harming anyone. It's not like they're murdering people.
A lot of people (mainly guys) say that they don't like gay people becuz they don't want to be hit on. Okay, people, if you're being hit on by someone gay, you probably look the part. jk. no but, that reason SUCKS. plus, unleess youre in a gay bar, its not too likely. so can we not create a new generation where homophobia is low and uncommon?

Had to vent. sry.

Just wondering, because I see a lot of "christian" and "religious" bashing in here.
Every time a christian or religious person states what they believe the non religious people attack them call them morons delusional etc..
so did I miss a law or a memo that it's okay to be closed minded and mock others who are religious?
shouldn't we respect what others "chose" to believe or not?
how can we say we are open minded non brainwashed free thinkers if we are on a campaign to disrespect belittle and mock others heart felt convictions.
I mean isn't that what the Intelligent educated great thinkers taught us?
we may not agree but we should "let freedom ring"

If you were were God, would you be proud of this existence that we live in?

I think there's some reason to the saying it's better to be feared than loved. Like last year I was real cold to everyone and I pushed down and sometimes beat up those who opposed me at school and it was going good except I wasn't making any new friends. this year I'm trying to be super nice to everyone and now they tease me and make fun of me a little sometimes. like I know some judo and aikido. Last year some guy was scared of me. Now I'm ncie to him and his friends. Last year people was all like wow man you can probably kick just about anybody's ***. Now they are like he's bigger and weighs more than you, you don't stand a chance. So do you really get more respect if you are feared rather than loved?

They don't agree with or won't accept what is God's order. Such as protecting all human life and the sanctity of marriage.
We did not make reality, God did - the things we know are from his creative hand - so why the opposition to try to meet our broken needs?
We did not make things the way they are, and we are wise to be aligned with the One who did.

that the users in the R&S section whom I would most like to send an email to so I can clarify something or ask a question, don't allow emails? Are people really only brave enough to state their beliefs so long as they can't be questioned?

anybody else think it's kind of funny when a creationist debates an evolutionist because they have no scientific data at all to back up their claims?

Okay for something to be considered a sin, it has to be bad right?

Its not right to take a life because you will not only deprive the other person of a life, but you'll hurt those who loved them as well (there's more but just as an example)

Its not right to cheat because thats how a person stops loving the one they're with and they slowly start loving the person they're cheating with and in the end can hurt the person they're with now

Its bad to steal because youre taking something that isnt yours or that belongs to somebody else and it could very well be something that means a lot to them so you could somehow hurt them.

Its bad to lie because sometimes you could lead a person on or they think they know who you are and when they find out what youre really like, it might not be what they wanted. Basically youre deceiving.

I could go on and on, however I want to ask this

What is wrong with people who have premaritial sex or that are gay? Who exactly are they hurting?

That Christianity is wrong? Who's to say it's right? People should believe what they want to believe instead of attempting to change others' beliefs. Stop "Witnessing" and people will like you more. Because you don't push your religion on them. Who else can comprehend what i'm saying?

If so, please link it. It would be like witnessing a miracle for me because I'm getting very disillusioned with the sheer ignorance these people "think" up.
