Finding a cure

[Alex2011]

I always had the same experience with radical Christians: No respect for other behaviors attitudes, lifestyles, religions, ... and a huge dose of self-overestimation and blase being, not a bit of self-reflection or critical-self-viewing

Same here. Radical christians in my experience tend to have some of the most close minded people i have ever encountered in my life. It ticks me off honestly. I wish organized/close minded religion would just die out.

likewise lol.
religeon should be banned.
world peace is stopped in its tracks mostly by religeous conflict.
the majority of wars are based on religeon. people need to see that and maybe then we can get some peace lol.
all the energy and time wasted praising the gods we have never seen, heard or have any proof exist.

No ... not banned ... religion is a right ... but : Everybody should decide himself for his own religion ..or even atheism : Necessary is the R E S P E C T for each other... his being, his religion, his atheism, his lifestyle etc.
There is no religion which preach Hate, Fight, War.. whatever.... but especially radical christian do and life all the things which are normally forbidden for them.
If I´m a sinner ...it is my sin... I have to discuss that with my Goddess.... not with someone of a complete other religion who is the opinion he must talk and preach for his God. To be a christian and maybe a Pastor is not a authorisation to declare other religions and lifestyles as not valid.
If the christian God has a Problem with my Goddess.... he should call her secretary and ask for a Termin to discuss that. But it is not my Problem .... or the Problem of the christian God´s ground crew. :biggrin:

dear pastor,

i have deep respect for you choosing or accepting God's gift to lead your life in a manner in which other's should follow by example. so with this it bring's me great pain in saying go fuc* yourself. or better yet go have your girlfriend or wife fuc* you while you think you are so special in your hetorsexuality that you are the only one that God loves. now since we're buddies tell me you're church website so i can go fishing for me some tail!

love,
me

Jesus was gay. The evidence is in the bible. Google Jesus is gay.

[marshlander]

I don't think so. There have been interpretations of biblical events, by people such as Theodore Jennings to suggest that Jesus may have been gay, but that in no way amounts to "evidence". The examples given are generally circumstantial, highly speculative and do not properly take into account customs prevailing during the time "Jesus" was supposed to have lived.

Same events, different conclusion. I'd say this is exactly why we don't need moderators. Don't you feel able to stand up for yourself, QT? A bit of discussion and reading between the lines rarely hurt anyone.

Yep good point there, Marsh.

Oh dear.

Wilson, you need to check out Home - Beyond Ex-Gay

In your little Christian bubble, you are likely so far removed from the realities of human sexuality that you don't know this, but no one who is gay becomes straight. You say you want to free gay people from bondage, but you are actually wanting to put gay people in the bondage of delusion. Too many gay Christians have suffered at the hands of well-meaning people like yourself.

Dude! I am extremely glad you mentioned that site. I was going to mention it at some point. I contacted that site once regarding my breakup. They did contact me back and gave me super valuable advice. It is an extremely useful site.
