@Spintendo: Before Pope Francis Met Kim Davis, He Met With Gay Ex-Student By Jim Yardley and Laurie Goodstein of The New York Times OCT. 2, 2015 If Archbishop Viganò is held responsible for what is seen as a grave misstep on an important papal trip, he is likely to be removed at the first respectable opportunity, according to several church analysts. "The pope has to be able to rely on his own system, and in this case the system failed him. The question is, was it a mistake, or was it done with full knowledge of how toxic she was?” Britney was there as well, that bitch!    :crazy2:

Just now on the morning news the vatican has said he regrets meeting with her.  Giggle.

Lock her up, and throw away the key.

Freud is still liked because he was "father" of psychology, despite being wrong about most everything.

Jews have been allies in virtually every minority rights fight in the US. Buddhists believe in universal equality.

i like indian movies and respect there culture

Hi this is something that I had to do myself Today. I am a member of my Local church I live in the UK. I told a very close friend and the vicar of the church a few years ago and they where fine. I am still good friends with them. However I have decided to come out to the whole church for a reason. Basically there was this young lady who liked me. So I decided it was best if I was upfront about being gay so no one got hurt. I also decided to let other people know. I guess over the next few weeks I will find out how people take it. But everyone I spoke to seems to be ok by it and in some weird way it feels like a heavy load as been lifted off me.

Elder Miller, Titov, Peter are so cute and hot… I would kill to get inside of their uniforms >:D but Elder Peter video does not exist on the site now. so  :cry2:

Gay people can't turn straight is what I think….. but depending on the cultural regions, Gay people have to marry one day and live a straight life.

@FairyFae: My mother has my brothers and me! She and her partner have been together for 30+ years. They live in Kansas where gay marriage hasn't been formally legalized yet, but the laws allow for them to be common-law married now. So when my mom had a stroke, her partner, my stepmom, went to a lawyer to find out if she could legally handle Mom's affairs and found out because they had a formal ceremony of committment in front of witnesses (300 of us!) they are married in the eyes of the law. So yes. Family we are! :congrats:

I just think it's funny that Christians (particularly the effervescent body known only as "The Church") keep pretending that they somehow hold a monopoly on the very concept of "marriage", despite the fact that people of all religions (including a lack thereof) and walks of life get married (or whatever their equivalent of "marriage" is) all around the world, with or without their "sanctification". It's why I truly believe that we need to rip the entire concept of "marriage", at least that which religions want to dogmatize, from the legal status of "marriage". Or just completely abolish the paperwork version of marriage altogether, and replace it with a gender- and number-neutral civil union contract setup which gives precisely all of the same rights that current "marriage" does. I've been saying this for a long time, but it needs to happen if we ever hope to get past this issue, because the religious right will keep stirring it up as long as they continue to exist.

@myrea: The question is albeit freewill might exist, in a dogmatic view the path, and choice of path, and circumstance that make you chose said path, is always guided or predestined by a diety in some way… hence (god fault ) this in typical monotheist culture, I'd could easily argue that christianiaty is  not monotheistic and that god is unperfect in the bible, so freewill might actually exist around faulted dieties... Who defines being perfect.. one's idea of perfection is all conditioning.. what may seem perfect to one may not be true for the other.. so if you think that a deity has to be perfect.. it should actually match ones idea of perfection.. hence nothing can be perfect… if viewed by all

@raphjd: Technically, the bible does not condemn gays as beings.  It only condemns gay sex, if interpret it that way. Most modern day believers accept the being vs actions argument. I believe that I pointed that out.  Love the person and not the sin and God did and does.  He prevented the stoning of prostitute because he said "he who is without sin, cast the first stone".  This does not in any way, shape or form mean that he condones Prostitution nor does condone gay sex, even though he still loves gay people and gay people can still follow him.

Regardless of that, it still only shows the magnitude of God's benevolence and not his accpetance of condonation of their behavior.  God also stepped to prevent the stoning of a prostitute, which is also not a condoned behavior.  Again this just shows God's mercy not acceptance.  Love the person and not the sin. :love:

par for the course

@shdwrulr: Also I live in the Bible belt, so it does get into politics and law. All of which is really annoying (especially where people give up science and equality because of their religious views). It is ironic that you mention that they are ignoring science, when few people here are bringing up the science and psychology of homosexuality.  No one else will have an interest if you do not show an interest.
