US Christians want to jail homosexuals

US Christians want to jail homosexuals. It seems ludicrous in the 21st century, but some mainstream Christian organizations want to criminalize homosexual behavior in order to prevent legal recognition of gay marriage and the repeal of the US military's "Don't Ask Don't Tell" policy.

      If only it were your own voice. I don't find everything you post offensive, lets get that straight. I don't jump on everyone of your comments, but this attack of yours on homosexuality is where I draw the line. I am a bi-sexual person who is currently in a homosexual relationship. When you say things about homosexuals its an attack on my way of life. I am going to be upset about it. Can't be helped.

      On another note, I really do get that you are sincere and you really believe that you are doing the right thing. That is why its sad for me to be so abrasive to you in general and I only speak up when it hits home with me.

    • Someone got screwed up the poop hole and I guess didn't like it... Hilarious though to see people who never went out of their 25 mile security circle want to change what's on the outer perimeter.

    • Society is moving in a totally different direction. There's no way criminalization of homosexuality is happening any time soon. The only thing that will really happen is that this sort of backward mentality will gradually deteriorate, leaving only an embarrassing blemish on the face of American history.

    • Jesus does not approve. He requests that you stop calling yourselves Christians and use a more appropriate name like Nazis. He also told me to let you know that you are all headed for hell for mutilating his message to justify your continued persecution of God's children.

      Jesus out.

      Oh wow! Thank you so much for warning me. I better give up my life as a bi-sexual porn star. Say, you don't happen to watch lesbian porn do you?

      LOL, God told me to tell you to stop bothering the other humans that actually use the brains he gave them.

      I can read and spell. I can also write coherent sentences and formulate my own opinions because I recognize brainwashing for what it is and decided that I wanted no part of it. But you go right ahead and enjoy your narrow mindedness. :D

      My you have some serious issues going on do you not, firstly prove to us all the existence of this God then your words my carry some ring of truth, however do not preach about gay death through AIDS this world has yet to calculate the number of Hetreosexuals who have had unprotected sex with people who have HIV you'll soon see it already there is a dramatical increase in hetreosexual cases being reported. The worst part is those that have been infected some beleive it is still a gay only disease & still sleep with their wives & girlfriends will they to be damned to the burning pits of hell or just the gays. Get with time HIV & AIDS is an issue that faces all sexualities tell the church to allow condoms to be used or shift some of the millions they have in the vatican (Property, stocks bonds donations we know they have them) towards helping with the cost of care, as they are assisting in the spread by saying condoms are evil so either they pay up or shut up.

      'So called Christians' indeed. I am a Christian, but these people are shameful. They have prostituted religion, to the point 'true' Christians, will be ashamed of the name. They want to take back my country. I want to take back my religion.

    • yes, because i know when I'm in a communal shower all i can do is molest men. In fact i'm so busy molesting them i forget to shower. God, Sprig needs to be beat with a stick.

    • Where is the reason? Where is the love and understanding? This is NOT a christian group, I don't care what they say. If I was God I would be ashamed of them, I'm not, but I'm still ashamed to call these animals my fellow man.

      Well gee, theft is illegal in just about every nation as is murder, be their laws debatably founded by Christian principles or not, so I think we can by that virtue see that humans can decide what is right and what is wrong without a little book to tell them so. The argument that Homosexuality is more harmful than heterosexuality is purely religious. And the overused argument against it, that HIV was a homosexual disease, is a load of crap. If HIV was a homosexual disease, strait people wouldn't get it, it wouldn't be such a goddamn epidemic in Africa, and the majority of people who were infected would continue to be the homosexual. Homosexuals have not continuously been the majority of people infected by HIV, nearly all HIV spread in 3rd world countries in Africa are spread by heterosexual intercourse (quite often rape), and to be redundant HIV spreads just as easily between heterosexual partners as it does homosexual.

      Let me guess; the 13 behind your tag is your age?

      I would much rather my child be exposed to homosexuals than men thinking it's OK to have a tribe of kids before they find the "right woman" to actually be bothered with to marry OR who think a dusty old book of myths should be everyone guide to life.

      My father was gay, he and his partner of 18 years were monogamous and more devoted to each other than most of the "normal" married couples I have ever known in my 52 years of life on this Earth! They had us out there as kids marching for the rights of others, rights he himself would NEVER know. He dared not dream of marrying his partner before his death in 1982 of cancer. And from the way you talk it was probably your rights he was marching for. Good thing he isn't around to see how he is repaid. He saw your injustice, take a few steps back and see theirs!!!

      My apologies but those of us who are european are so glad we are not American, that way we do not have to deal with pathetic bible bashing fools who convince themselves of some omnipresent being controlling their lives. You say you wish to return to Christian fundamentalist laws as in the bible do you even know what they would be like, firstly I would like to know what the going rate for a slave would be in the states as the bibles says slavery is ok, can I start to stone my American relations if they wear an outfit of two different cloths or is that just pulling passages out of context who would do that oh yes Fundamentalist Christians.

      Do you think you're clever? Why do you make the same arguments over and over, only to tune out any logical counter-arguments?

      Theft should not be legal, ever. Why? Because Person A has the **right** to his property, and Person B (said thief) does not have the **right** to steal Person A's property.

      Laws & rights are quite simple: you have the right to do anything you want, so long as you don't infringe on the rights of someone else. Gays do not infringe on anyone's **rights** by being gay or having consensual gay sex.
