I think your comment must be pertaining to the atrocity in Tel Aviv in which gay youths were killed, not the atrocity in Pakistan in which Christians were attacked.

Wrong thread?

“Are those who bravely stand up against the deviance of homosexuality—which violates the dignity and worth of those involved — responsible for all crime against those drawn to the lifestyle? This kind of bigotry has no place in a civilized society and is wildly irresponsible, unjust and inaccurate.”

No, those who “bravely stand up against the deviance of homosexuality” are not responsible for all crime against gays. Maybe none of it. And yes, It would be “wildly irresponsible, unjust and inaccurate” to blame them for all of it. We don’t know what motivated these shootings. Maybe homosexuality had nothing to do with it.

But maybe just a little part of anti gay sentiment is inflamed by the message that says gays all have an “agenda”, are “anti-Christian” and that they are psychologically and morally inferior to straights. Or maybe those who already hate gays just use that message as justification for their violence.

I have seen signs at Gay Pride events that say, “Suffer not a sodomite to live”. Of course, this is a hateful fringe — and not representative of real Christians.

Spelling errors:

It’s leader, perhaps? It’s headquarters, perhaps? It’s congregation

Should be its, not it’s.

There’s only one muscle body out there right now–the US. Korea, Iraq….

I meant Iran, not Iraq.
