You know, there is one thing about this (and we both know that we're guessing, but with a probably better-than-even chance of being right).

How hard must it be for someone who has been brought up with the sort of fundamentalist religious belief, loaded with fire and brimstone, and eternal punishment for all sorts of trivial failures, to discover in yourself one of those failures? How hard must it really be to live such a life. What spiritual virtue can ever be the happy result of such a hopeless conflict? To be honest, I really felt for Ted Haggard as he had to face his public comeuppance for exactly this, even though his hateful rhetoric (informed, as it was, by his own inner conflict) was offensive to me.

I tell you truly, this is one of those ways in which I honestly believe that religion has the power to be a very, very great evil.

Yes. Just like Islamic fanatics and Muslims I know.
That would be terrible as well.

But in case you are wondering, I do not think that there is much of a valid parallel.

I will gladly explain you why, if you are being plagued by insomnia or something.

The internal struggle between their own nature and what they are told that nature is supposed to mean is probably the reason they are so full of anger and hatred. Religion is not doing them any service, nor the people that are their targets.

I feel sorry for the Christians that I know.
It must be awful to be confused with people with such a discourse.

Jesus Christ himself never once condemned the LBGTQ community; Leviticus only applied to the ancient tribe of Israel, and where homosexuality gets condemned in the NT was written by a homophobic person named Paul whom Jesus wasn't around in Galilee.

"New Independent Fundamentalist Baptist Church Calls For Capital Punishment for All LGBTQ+

June 11, 2019 — Several congregations from the New Independent Fundementalist Baptist Church (the NIFB) will host their “Make America Straight Again” conference at the location and on the anniversary of the PULSE Nightclub shooting.

With plans to convene at Revival Baptist Church (320 US-27 Clermont Florida)

View attachment 29929

on June 14-16, the organizers of the conference have been secretive regarding their exact itinerary, however they are clear on the reason for their chosen dates. The NIFB are vocal proponents for not only bigotry against and marginalization of the LGBTQ+ community, but also for government-enacted capital punishment of its members.

For this reason they have chosen to hold their conference in Orlando during Pride month on the Anniversary of the Pulse Nightclub shooting to not only publicly celebrate the anniversary of the tragic deaths of the 49 people who lost their lives that weekend, but to advocate for more.

The NIFB’s own promotional video for this conference can be found by clicking on the idiot below.

This specific religious sect are vocal regarding their ownership of weapons and ammunition, as well as their proficiency in their usage. They also reference their familiarity with both conceal-and-carry and stand-your-ground legislation in the state of Florida, raising serious concerns that there may be violent escalations during their planned public activities surrounding the PULSE anniversary.

A group of YouTube creators and other activists have been actively coordinating efforts to not only expose the agenda and intentions of the NIFB, but also actively documenting their organizational structure and activities. For example, video clips gathered include… [YOU'LL HAVE TO CLICK ON THE SOURCE TO WATCH]

Pay no heed to what any so-called Christians claim, save for a true Christian like J.C.

Even if I agreed, that would in no way, shape or form be a justification for the vitriol that LGBTIQ+ receive now.

Just like the existence of an epistle with instructions for proper behavior of slaves is no justification for maintaining slavery, mind you.

I take it then that because no one else is like J.C., the only one we can count as a "true Christian" is Jesus himself. Interesting.

Well, I suppose according to my notion of what constitutes a true Christian, besides J.C., they're none.

You are right, it must be a great struggle being brought up to believe an inherent aspect of yourself is actively evil. On one hand, you are right, such people deserve our sympathy and empathy.

But on the other hand, knowing how much pain and harm they cause persecuting other people just like them, it's hard not to point and laugh when they inevitably get busted. Hey, it's called schadenfreude for a reason, and FWIW, I'm happy to admit to it.

This is why LGBT people should arm themselves and learn self-defense.

Well some of the politics you espouse on this board pretty much matches up with theirs.
Really ? You had better be able to prove your salacious accusation, or be prepared to apologize.

I am left handed, I bet that matches up with some of them too.

Guilt by association. A blackguards method.
