I've never thought of it that way, but thinking about it, you make a good point. I think it would be feasable to say that.

Maybe not terrorists, but not Christians. Christ loved everyone. If you read about the work that he did he cared for those that were marginalized and cast off by society - the people that his society looked down upon. Not that I think gay people are marginalized, but that Christ behaved in a way that I am not sure the gay bashers get.

Terrorists? I would say so, but not extreme terrorists like Al Queda. Most of them certainly don't murder people en masse for being gay (with a few infamous exceptions).
I would say terrorists however, since they put forth every effort to persecute them, marginalize them, demonize them, abuse them mentally and socially, criminalize them, and strip them of their civil rights (including the right to the relationship of their choice).
Most of these Christians (so called) are sincere, and believe they are following the will of God. The same could be said of Al Queda.

They shouldn't be bashing. They should consider what being a Christian means.

Christians who bash gays aren't really "Christians" at all.

Should Gays who bash Christians be called terrorists?

And what about Gays that bash Christians who disagree with them?
Most Christians respect you. We may not agree with you but we DO respect you.
There is a great Christian ministry that reaches out to the homosexual population. You should check them out.

No more so than non-Christians who bash Christians should be called "secular terrorists."

I've never bashed any homosexuals. In fact, I've had friends who are gay, and I still loved them. I believe they have the right to live their lives free of harassment.
I do not, however, condone their lifestyle or accept it as "normal" behavior simply because its normalcy is being drilled into our heads through the media, television programs, schools, etc.
And, the day I'm labeled a terrorist, fined, or thrown into jail for respectfully expressing those opinions is the day that YOUR and my right to freedom of speech is in grave danger of being jerked out from under us.
THAT is what should cause you concern.

It would seem fair to. Doing physical harm to people or spreading fear regarding a group would qualify you as a terrorist in my book.
