You gotta love Anandtech...all these people bashing God and Christianity all day long without recourse but say one thing about some homosexual that is deemed "unflattering" and you get banned. Go figure.

There could be a relation, but what is often said about Homosexuals goes way beyond what is said about the Religious.

I think that's his subtle way of calling for the waaahmbulance. You are, of course, correct in that there's no correlation.

The religious/religion is idiodic, lying, hateful, pedophilic, brain dead, utter nonsense, hypocritical vs. ur gay, don't be gay, that's gay, gays are going to hell, nasty, disgusting, wrong, etc.

I'd say they're pretty much even as far as offensiveness. His point is just that you guys can rip on us all day for being brainless morons that keep little boy slaves around the house (as some of you have), but a thread that degenerated into lame cracks about gay people being so disgusting and just wrong, etc, would be locked.

We use logic and rational reasoning to argue against religion. I admit that sometimes it is taken a bit far. I might even go a bit overboard at times when making a point (see my analogy refuting the common religious line "but you can't prove (G)god(s) do not exist").

Generally, when religions bash gays they do so because of a cherry picked verse out of a book that completely defies logic and rational thought.

Not only would it be locked but you'd get a PM from a pissy mod who felt it was their obligation to ban you for 30 days because it is their course in life to take up the pastel-colored rainbow mantel of the homosexuals who frequent AT. They want to ensure that certain members on AT, God forbid, might be shielded from getting flamed...LOL...no pun intended. Christians members and others who have a religious outlook on life are fair game for atheists/agnostics/et al to bash away at.

I guarantee a video someone posted about homosexual love that generated the equivalent comments from straight people making fun of/disgusted with that lifestyle would get the members hand-slapped by mods because you may have hurt some emo's feelings.

Basically...say what you want about members and their respective religous beliefs all day long without fear of recourse. Just be sure you censor yourself before posting anyting about the homosexual lifestyle choices some members of AT have made.

Well, let's look at it this way... IRL, which group is more persecuted and mocked? Christianity needs no protection. I'd think any true christian being flamed would turn the other cheek 😉

Depending on the country and/or region, either group could be persecuted just as harshly as the other, or not at all. 😛 Oh and don't think I haven't rewritten a few posts for that very reason

Just another in a long series of terrible coat-hanger abortions of logic. I'd point out why, but you just gotta let the special needs kid win at tetherball once in a while. Good deed for the day complete!

Well Mr. Omnipotent, enlighten us...oh wait, you can't. Homosexual maybe? Hit a nerve? Don't like the comparison but can't back up why you call it an abortion of logic.

Let me help you while you're watching Bravo channel, surfing the new cruising spot listings on the web, and wondering how you can rid yourself of unsightly body hair...It's perfectly logical to associate the two because, inherently, you are calling out/questioning/berating/belittling someone's choices...easy as that...even the special needs kid playing tetherball could understand it.

Just admit it...here, you can post what you want about someone's religious beliefs and berate and belittle them all day long and you'll be protected...post something about someone's choice of engaging in sexual activity with a same-sex partner and you get banned/flamed.

Not true at all. Your response to this will be the proof.

They're not both choices. One of the two can change, the other is genetically predisposed. I could just as easily say that amphibians are at fault for not being the dominant class of animals in the world. Why don't they just EVOLVE already?

When it comes to ideas, even religious ones, there is plenty of room for change within a single individual. However unlikely the concept is, you could very well decide that religion isn't the way for you. That is within your power. A homosexual may not have any more choice in their sexuality than a fish has between living in the ocean and on the land. There are those who berate homosexuals on this board because they disagree with the way they live, but the ire directed towards the religious is more justified because the religious are not trapped by biology in their way of life, but by ideas. People argue with you because they know it is totally within your power to change, and that every barrier you set up against logic is something you decided to place, rather than something that was placed against your will.

There is a difference.

I'm just going to go out on a limb here but, because homosexuals are real and God isn't? Just a wild guess.
 
Jesus saved me from certain hell.

He also changed me in most every way, everyone that knows me seen it. Many people would write it off as something more "scientific," but I was there and know what happened.

No, I understand perfectly. You have no idea about religions. You got suckered into believing what every other wannabeliever got suckered into believing. EVERY single person that ever believed in ANY religion throughout history believed that it was their path to eternal life. No worries, you're not any dumber to those who sacrificed an ox to their god so he would grant them eternal life. You're not any dumber than those who danced around a fire and chanted to their god so he would grant them eternal life. You're not any dumber than those who saw lightning and thought god was angry, so they fell on their faces and peed themselves in fear of not getting eternal life. The sad part is that you're not any smarter than them either. You'd think mankind might have gotten a little smarter in 100,000 years of worshipping non-existent gods who don't do anything to help. At least some of us have.

You just don't get it. Your foolish belief in your great god of the pedophiles is exactly the same as everyone who prayed to Zeus or Apsu or the great moon spirit. Your god is going to wind up on the scrapheap of time just like theirs did. When you walk through an airport and see Hare Krishnas singing and chanting to their god don't you laugh at them? When you see some morons castrate themselves to take a ride on a comet don't you laugh at them? When you think of Scientologists who pay for their faith and worship an alien with atom bombs and spaceships don't you laugh at them? That's why we're laughing at you pal. Your imaginary god is just as silly as theirs. At least theirs don't molest little kids.

:thumbsup:

Amen brother. I had the same experience too, except The Mighty Leprechaun is the one who saved me. It changed me in every good way. Christians say that's impossible because only Jesus saves, and scientists are always throwing these stupid things called "facts" and "proof" at me, but I was there and know what happened. As a matter of fact, I have the Lucky Charms he gave me to prove it.

Really? Wow, that sounds like my experience too, except it was Nessie the Loch Ness monster that saved me.

Praise Nessie!
