I was reading an interesting story about an HIV positive gay Christian man. But what interested me more were the comments. Click here if you wish to read the article or the comments.
Here were a few things that bother me:
1) I was expecting a lot more hate speech... either tolerance has increased our Health24 has a great subs... honestly I believe it to be the latter.
2) You never hear "gay and catholic..."
3) From what knowledge I've gathered from the Bible and the amount of church appearances I've made or actually paid attention in... God already knows your whole life, before you are born... What I also know is that God loves all his children... so why would God hate a man or women who is gay if he knew how their lives would turn out before their parents decided to procreate???
4) Also none of the ten commandments say: thou shall not seek affection from thy same gender...
5) I am quite familiar with the verses that say gays will never enter the kingdom of heaven... these are the verses the so-called Jesus freaks use as their shot gun blasts, well let me tell you something, did you know there's a verse in the bible (old testament not sure where though, but it's there) that says: (more or less) Anybody who calls another a fool will be condemned to hell...
6) Interestingly enough, the Bible is copyrighted, but not by the original writers... but by our modern translators... Are these translators trustworthy??? Only as trustworthy as a modern day priest...
7) The Bible doesn't explain the existence dinosaurs... yet the fossils are proof of there existence...
8) Do you give 10% of your salary to the church every month, or are you the kind who saves up the odd 20c here and there and expect that to be enough... be honest now... God knows what you offered... no point in lying...
9) Do you really think you're going to heaven??? Is it possible for you keep repenting... and expect to go to heaven... you do know that the entire Bible is rule book, not a story book, not a self help book, not a intervention.... its a rule book plain and simple...
From what I gather, women aren't supposed to cut their hair (did you repent for that?), aren't supposed to wear men's clothes, like jeans or any pant (did you repent for that?) and shouldn't mix their fabrics (did you repent for that?)
Suicide is mortal sin, right? Well did you know that smoking a form of suicide? So no matter if your a quitter, yo ass is gonna burn in Hell! (Feeling the hate you give gays??? If you're gonna give it, be prepared to take it!)
Being lazy is a sin no??? Well all you drivers, who are so freaking lazy to walk to work, you'd better pray for forgiveness every night and every morning so you don't go to a little place I hear so often as Satan personal torture chamber : HELL...
Greed is a sin right... ok so all rich and fat people who like to eat no matter how religious they are, are going to hell...
Gossip... hope you repented last night, actually I hope you repented right this minute, because I'm pretty sure you gossiped about someone at work today...
The list goes on... if me being gay is sending me to hell, don't think that you being straight is a get out hell free card...
One more thing to add: Go fuck yourself
Mr Lovelace out...
Oh and this post goes out to all the haters...
ReplyDeleteCo-sign... I'm so sick of 'so-called' christians using christianity to suit their needs.
ReplyDeleteThe bible is man made, not God made. The laws & regulations in there are created by man.
ReplyDeleteIt is not worth getting worked up over people that have such a narrow perspective on life.
Someone commented on another blog & I think it very true.
"Jesus loves everyone, but some very strange people love Him".
Love life :)
Just read the comments on the Health24 website. . . .HECTIC!!!
ReplyDeleteIt always amazes me how people that follow any religion can so shamelessly justify themselves and their naive opinions based on what their religion teaches them. . . .yet their belief system is based on something someone else teached them and they follow it (without any doubt) like a flock of sheep and do not dare to question or challenge it. WORST of all is they do not really know jack shit about their religion NOR WHAT THEIR RELIGION TEACHES them. . . TO LOVE. . . and to LOVE with no boundaries!!
