		<description>I guess this thread is by now effectively long closed but I wanted to say I enjoyed reading through the comments (cure for insomnia - lol). While it is likely I would on balance side more with Peter Cotton and Sola Scriptura because of my Christian beliefs, I did value reading the other comments made (except for the ones aimed at goading and insulting, which I feel are unnecessary). I have to say I have never attended a Pride parade but I appreciate the opportunity of being better informed should I ever do so and be respectful and understanding. Best wishes to all!</description>

		<description>Hello once again!Sola Scriptura here.May I direct my remarks to 21st Century Spirituality and Dr.Robin Guthrie.I was very sorry to read that you,Dr.Guthrie, are terminally ill.My husband and I have prayed for you.This fact may or may not please or help you but at least you know that complete strangers are genuinely concerned about your suffering.We did not answer 21st Century Spirituality&#039;s questions as our laptop broke down and is only now operational again.With these comments, we&#039;ll close our correspondence on this comment line unless someone wishes to learn more of the Lord Jesus Christ.</description>

		<description>@ Sola Scripture...&#039;The homosexual agenda is a sinister and deadly attempt to overthrow Biblical morality and it has a totalitarian impulse.&#039;

&#039;homosexual lifestyle&#039;...&#039;homosexual agenda&#039;....What are these things? What exactly do you mean by those things? Because I&#039;m gay and I haven&#039;t got a clue what your talking about and neither have you by the sounds of it. My life is pretty much like everyone elses, give or take, so what exactly is this &#039;homosexual lifestyle&#039; you mention? And what makes you think that you are qualified or entitled to dictate and decide how gay men and women live their lives and to define their &#039;lifestyle&#039;? Can you define my &#039;lifestyle&#039; please? What does a typical day for me look like?

I see no suggestion in what gay men and women are asking for apart from a desire and wish to be treated with fairness, dignity and respect and to be recognised and included and acknowledged as human beings with as much right to justice and equality as all human beings. How exactly does the concept of justice and equality for everyone without discrimination fly in the face of Biblical morality?

And &#039;totalitarian&#039;. Thats rich coming from the likes of YOU!</description>

		<description>Always goning to be some bible thumpers.  Sure I&#039;d like to sling 10 pounds of what comes out of my ass after eating two peperoni pizzas at them.  But they stink so bad that it wouldn&#039;t make any difference.

Instead go kill them with kindness.  Kiss them on the facecheek, offer them some booze. And more booze.

And when they are loaded, offer to have a little sex fun with them in a private place.

Youre bound to get some takers - the closeted gays who throw out their self hatred on others to try and hide who they are.

At least you&#039;d be doing both an act of charity as they scream more more harder harder faster faster.

And have it videod to help them come out of the closet when their mind clears. Hallelujah</description>

		<description>Sent off to Sunday School to learn the ways of 
Protestantism as it was at the time.

Even at the age of 5 I saw through the lot of it.

However I knew something was different.

I did not know at the time, sex being an alien concept.

I spent the formative part of my teens assisting my parents with 
my severely mentally handicapped sister as I still do now.

She has Praeder Willi syndrome.  

Look it up. ( it&#039;s not nice ) 

I then spent years protecting her when she went to her
&quot;special school&quot; from , lets say at the moment people 
who did not understand her condition and could only offer insults
due to their ill informedness.

She was born missing a Chromosome. Namely recognized as Number 15.

Still, being a child of the 70&#039;s I had nothing to compare my inherent feelings
with given the only media representations of how I felt at the time.

Presently, I support 18 various charities through either working directly 
or offering money to the tune of £240,000 per year.

I have also been diagnosed with terminal cancer, and at the end of my life
all that will be in my head, is how hateful you alleged christians actually are.

Not one word of Jesus&#039;s message has entered into your thick skulls.

Even as a dying aithiest I know the Jesus message better than you.

How sad.</description>

Antony&#039;s remark about BNP backing of most anti-gay Christian groups is utter nonsense.

The BNP are well known to have Evangelical Fundamentalist Clergy amongst their ranks. When the list of BNP membership was published online a few years ago these people were exposed.
Sola . . . you appear to have a short memory

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Sola Scripture Wrote
I am opposed to the BNP and I have no dealings with, nor support from them, nor would I want any support from them.Again I note the viciousness and hostility of the &quot;gay&quot; lobby towards anyone who opposes them, particularly Christians.

JohnK’s response
We are opposed to homophobia, heterosexism, and other oppressive mindsets which some Christians think are comparable with Jesus teachings; which hare clearly not. Jesus preached “Love” not hatred. If we appear opposed to you “Sola” it is because we view you as preaching and inciting hatred, and we are wondering when you are going to repent of your homophobia; rather than constantly trying to legitimize your hatred through pick and mix scripture bashing. 

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Sola Scripture Wrote
This is a deliberate strategy on the part of &quot;gay&quot; activists i.e. to attack and slander all opposition with a view to silencing it, and &quot;hate crime&quot; laws are one of the weapons used in the &quot;gay&quot; war against the Bible-believing Christian. 

JohnK’s response
Sola Hate Crime Laws are a “Civil” intervention . . . there is no gay war, only in your head. Sola you think these things because you are in the grip of paranoia.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Sola Scripture Wrote
Some years ago, two homosexual activists, Kirk and Madsen, wrote a book entitled, &quot;After the Ball&quot; and they outlined their strategy to persuade and later force America to overcome its fear of &quot;gays&quot;.
They suggested distracting attention away from their sexual conduct and linking their agenda to the civil rights movement.
They proposed three sophisticated propoganda techniques, 1.Desensitising, 2.Jamming, 3.Conversion.They have been remarkably successful in their achievements.
The homosexual agenda is a sinister and deadly attempt to overthrow Biblical morality and it has a totalitarian impulse. 

JohnK’s response
Sola clearly desensitising, jamming and conversion have not worked on you. I will send a psychiatrist around to give you a dose of ECT, this might stimulate you brain cells into a less paranoid view of the world. 

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Sola Scripture Wrote
I will let the Bible have the last word, &quot;for the wages of sin is death;but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.&quot; Romans ch.6 v23 and &quot; 
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgement&quot; Hebrews ch. 9 v.27.This verse speaks of natural death, which is followed by judgement.
However, there is a second death for unrepentant sinners (all types of sinners), see Revelation ch. 20 vs. 14 and 15. 

JohnK’s response
Yawn Yawn Yawn . . . Sola your insistence on quoting from the bible shows you lack of creativity, low intelligence and to put it bluntly, a nonexistent level of reasoning perpetuated by your constant spoon feeding which protects you from thinking for yourself.</description>

		<description>Fact 1: ALL religious people Choose to be Religious. Choose to act according to what their scripts say. (Or what suits them anyway!)

Fact 2: LGBT people Don&#039;t! We are Born the way we are. 
Get Over it!

Why do religious people feel the need to impose their Lifestyle of hatred on others? Get your heads out of the sewers and respect people for more than what they do in bed... Sickos!</description>

		<description>@87  &lt;i&gt;&quot;They suggested distracting attention away from their sexual conduct and linking their agenda to the civil rights movement.&quot; &lt;/i&gt;

Sounds like a good policy to me.... What we do in our bedrooms is NOBODIES business but our own... and YES, it IS a civil rights issue!

&lt;i&gt;&quot;The homosexual agenda is a sinister and deadly attempt to overthrow Biblical morality and it has a totalitarian impulse.&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

Again, what total rubbish. It´s none of your business and totalitarian? Not at all. You live your life and I´ll live mine thanks.

&lt;i&gt;&quot;However, there is a second death for unrepentant sinners (all types of sinners), see Revelation ch. 20 vs. 14 and 15. &quot;&lt;/i&gt;

Yeah... there you go again with the ´threats´ metered out by the churches for centuries to control the masses... . ´Repent or you will burn in the fires of hell´ bullsh-t! 

Well, I´m not planning on being burnt in any fires any time soon.. I could´nt afford the gas bill... Have you &lt;i&gt;SEEN&lt;/i&gt; the price of gas these days?  :-)

It´s a shame that if what I believe is true, when YOU die, that will be it. Nothing, Nada. You won´t even get to reflect on a whole life wasted worshiping some all-seeing sky-pilot. A ´god´ who lets people starve and suffer from ´natural disasters´ and other ´acts-of-god´.

You have spend a life filled with hate and ignorance. You certainly won´t be seated at gods ´top-table´ as you obviously hope.

I do seriously worry about your state of mind though... Let´s take a look at the clues shall we?

1)  Worships mythical beings
2)  Loves to sing (but only on Sundays)
3)  Worships and promised undying allegiance to superior MALE
4)  Loves men in frocks who are in close proximity to huge candles.
5)  Spends a good portion of each day hanging out on gay websites...

Okay, let´s punch the above 5 points into our little computer shall we?

&lt;b&gt;.........COMPUTER SAYS....

CLOSET CASE!!!!!&lt;/b&gt;</description>

		<description>Look Sola Scrtura.

Don&#039;t you get it.  

This is a gay magazine&#039;s online web presence discussion board.

It mainly consists of gay people discussing topical subjects
on gay issues.

The problem with your posts is that you come into these discussions attacking us, or informing us how ungodly we are, invoking various rent-a-scripture quoted in the process.

You now have the temerity to question why people go on the offensive and return the attack.

Please go off to the www.ekklesia.co.uk/ and spout your bile there.

I&#039;m sure you will find plenty of like minded people to discuss how revolting we nasty gays are.

Run along now.  Theres a good boy......</description>
