abomination to marching in a pro-gay march on Washington.

A Step in Faith

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) Americans are a diverse, extraordinary, resilient, and passionate group of forgiving men and women. I wouldn't be standing beside them demanding full and equal treatment under the law and speaking out against the harm caused by religion-based bigotry at the National Equality March in Washington, D.C., on Oct. 11 if I thought they were not created in God's image the same as myself, same as my family, as we all are—we are all God's children.

And I know better than anyone, since six years ago I was one of those bigots. At that time it would have seemed abominable to even consider attending a "gay-rights" event. To me, these would have been the people tearing apart the very seams of our culture and our country.

2. Exactly!!!! The people who are really "tearing apart the fabric of America"

are the "religious" extremists. They are fucking haters as they have always been.

How wonderful of this person in the OP to finally acknowledge the rights of other human beings after
years of persecuting them.

6. You arrogant putz!

You know nothing about me.

Too clever by half, cowboy. Too clever by half.

Buh-bye.

7. No hyperbole whatsoever. Religion in one form or another has been

responsible for much of the most incredible violence and brutality throught all human history, probably coming right after greed in scale.
God was one of pour worst inventions.
Talk about arrogance!

Oh, yeah, threaten me with doom, you fucking robot pissant.
