Social liberals need to get over the supposed obvious correctness of their positions and drill down on these morality questions. They discredit their positions (which, again, I mostly agree with).


But, conceptually, morality is the key issue here, right? My take is every position that considers homosexuality to be "immoral" is necessarily rooted in a religious system of ethics and morals. In a secular nation where religious beliefs are in theory applicable only to private lives, secular liberal notions of morality seem to have become orthodox, which I assume is why so many speak of their positions with the confidence you alluded to in the post. I don't always agree or disagree with these positions, just trying to make an observation, which is probably wrong...

they're not really his beliefs. i think if you asked him to explain why he believes what he does he'd have a hard time doing so.

oh, and his thoughts on homosexuals aren't all that special either.

after reading 4 pages and hearing many people over a couple of days i would like to chime in. everyone should be entitled to express their views in a non inflammatory way without being jumped own. to say those of us who views are shaped by their faith are hypocrites is to paint with a broad brush. everyone views are shaped by something. do i agree with homosexuality, no. do i think people should be treated different because of it, no. just as i wouldn't want to be called the n word, i wouldn't use the f word. but please don't compare me and others who view all sin equally with the westbro (sp) people.

and lastly, i'm always amused by those who berate christians tell them how they should act. not everyone is the same.

No one is telling him how to act, they are disappointed his opinions suck. And again, he has the right to express his views. There are certainly no rights that say you can express your views and have no recourse.


And I don't know for a fact he's a hypocrite, but I'm relatively positive if I took 15 minutes to do some googling, I could find several things he's doing or has done that the bible says he shouldn't. Would he then be a horrible Christian or whatever he called him?

Once again, religion proves its utter worthlessness. It's a cancer of memes. The sooner it's eradicated, the better.
