Reparative Therapy

I AM WATCHING. I would suggest to all concerned that the rhetoric cool down a little.

I would be happy if people just didn't use religion to condemn me for the way I was born. Since they believe in God and that he doesn't make mistakes and they don't think that God creates people to be damned then we should be just as good as anyone else. They don't even follow the logic of their own beliefs...

That would be because these beliefs aren't logical or consistent. Just read the various bibles out there... a few random passages here and there say "love everyone" and then several dozen state who to hate/stone to death/set on fire/etc., and people pick and choose which they want to believe and when. One could say that there is no such thing as say, Christianity for example, because all of the multiple hundreds of millions of followers have their own versions of it anyway. Hundreds of millions of different Gods, whether or not they're based on the same idea.

Trying not to be rude here... but just to give food for thought...

"There are millions of Gods out there that you don't believe in so in the end we are all non-believers. Atheists just go one God further."

"I don't believe in your God for the same reason you don't believe in that person's."

I'm just asking people to not discriminate or unfairly judge the religious people. I don't hate atheists. I'm fine with having some atheists in the government along with others of all other kinds of beliefs.

Also, I believe that my beliefs are logical and consistent. Please don't tell me otherwise. You don't even know what they are. Thank you

I can see that this topic is flaring up a little and people are taking thing personally.

In the interest of all concerned, I think that this topic should be closed for the time being.
