What are some quotes that you absolutely hate that homophobic christians (No not all christians) use as reasons to dislike gay people? Mine are...
"It was Adam and Eve not Adame and Steve"
and the O' so famous
"Love the sinner, hate the sin"

No, those two are the worst, by far. Some others are nastier, but that 'Adam & Steve' just pisses me right off! Who made that up?
(I'm kind of hoping 'Amber' is going to answer this one...)

There simply isn't enough space to list them all.
I think my favorite has to be when they are asked to leave religion and the Bible out of their reasons and then attempt to explain why they are "against" homosexuality.
They will go with "it's not natural" which has been proven to be untrue considering it is found in nature.
They go with" but you can't have children" when there is no law insisting that either children or fertility are needed to validate a life or a marriage.
After those two, they pretty much start rambling. Strawman arguments, 'ick factor" declarations, and then either shut up or revert to, "you'll see when you go to hell" or some equally meaningless phrase(which leads right back to the can't say anything without using the Bible or Religion as a reference).
It gets pretty pathetic actually.

When they say, "I am not homophobic" ... while they stand there lying through their teeth and taking delight in telling people that they are going to hell -- as if they are special and have the right to cast judgment. AND then later incite more intolerance and bigotry by preaching against gay people. Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson come to mind, immediately. But that's a sport that Ted Haggard will not be playing, for awhile!

good grief, where does one start? they all repeat the same, lame, stereotypical, generalizing b.s. like a bunch of brain-washed robots. the 2 you mention are among the worst ones.
and
you're an abomination! when/why did you choose to be gay? marriage is between a man and a woman, you can't have children (uh, yeah we can, and do!). you can't be both gay and Christian (yes we can, and I am!).
plus all their stupid assumptions that we've all been raped/molested/abused (not me!). we had an absent parent (nope, mine were together 29 years until my dad died), or an "overbearing" or "weak" parent (nope!). that we had a "bad" relationship with the opposite sex, and that "turned" us (never have been with a man...because I always knew I was lesbian). we were "exposed" to the gay lifestyle somehow growing up (never met anyone gay until after I realized I was).
....I know I've missed a lot of other lame reasons....and I'm sure the other posters can add plenty to this list....

I hate the Adam and Eve/Steve one, good God, grow up people.
My Mom wants me to go with her to a friends for Thanksgiving, but is afraid I'll INSULT THEM with my beliefs in equal rights, since they're Catholic (or nearly), LOL- not that it's funny, just somewhat ironic.

LOL Adam and Steve is my favorite one too, even though I'm not Christian, I sometimes sue that phrase, not because I hate homosexuals (I really don't, a lot of them are nice) but because it's hilarious

It is not what they say but what they do, or not do; like ignore you like you don't exist anymore.
