Since when was bigotry an "exercise" of Christianity? And, if they were that damned-scared about it, each and every time, why didn't they try to take it to the SCOTUS, 'eh?<br /><br />It seems like they specialize in fear-mongering, rather than any sort of a logical debate!<br /><br />h, and don't forget: A recent Preacher tried to martyr himself within the past several months when he went to DC proclaiming how "sinful" we Gay folks are, hoping to get arrested and prove Christians' fears!Wade@MacMorrighan.Netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33855769.post-19603179854589038712010-04-22T06:01:31.653-07:002010-04-22T06:01:31.653-07:00That's easy, Alvin... it's because the rel...That's easy, Alvin... it's because the religious reicht are masters of propaganda and fearmongering! They've been doing it since before the Civil War, during the fight for suffrage, the battle over Jim Crow and segregated schools, a woman's right to choose, and of course equal rights for TLBGs and marriage equality.<br /><br />It's also due to the fact that in conservative faiths, discussion, debate, and especially questioning of doctrine is expressly frowned on, usually with the threat of disfellowship or excommunication against any and all who dare defy the leader. This means you have a congregation of sheep who believe that everything the pastor says is gospel and from the mouth of god himself.<br /><br />Luckily, there is a new generation of real Christian leaders who know the truth. Just like most the previous generation who got to know racial minorities and knew what their parents told them about blacks and Asians were misstatements and irrational fears, these new leaders grew up with TLBG kids in their school or have openly TLBG family, and know what they've been told about us were also misstatements and irrational fears.<br /><br />This new generation is more focused on the environment, and poverty - not worried about gay men and lesbians in bed together and raising kids. This is purely a generational divide.<br /><br />Yes, we do have Christian youth who's been filled with the reicht's propaganda and are good little goosesteppers in the culture war. Hopefully, they're going to be few and far between.<br /><br />Listen to "TransTalk" every Monday from 4-5pm ET on http://www.falconradio.orgMarlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10796191877135640907noreply@blogger.com
