Well a lot of his arguements were aimed at fellow Christians, and I do not think he is bigoted I think he is just stating his opinion. And like I said, you can ignore all the Bible business, the part I was getting at was the statistics that prove that the homosexual lifestyle is a dangerous one. Their life span is proof enough, not to mention their rate of HIV etc. The thing is homosexuality itself states that sexulaity is a subjective matter, and that kind of attitude leads men to question all sexual taboos, and conclude they are all just convention. Now that is easy for an atheist to beleive. But the vast majority of people believe that there are moral rights and wrongs, dealing with sexuality too.
I think you are the bigot, no offence intended, because you are the one who insists on insulting and believeing that he and Christians are evil and so on. He is stating his honest opinion and you are mad at him for it. Futher you act as if his opinions are unwarranted, as if civilization for the last 2000+ years, over most all of the world, has condemend homosexuality. And western civilization has based all of its morality on the Bible up until about 50-100 years ago. Human rights developed within a Christian west, this is just a fact. Now perhaps it could have developed under different terms, but it did not! And in my opinion now that we are moving away from Chrsitianity we will soon see Human Rights disappear, as there is no such thing as a right when there is no such thing as a thing which supercedes governments. Rights are grounded in the idea that we are endowed by our Creator with UNALIENABLE rights. Without an endower rights are just laws, or strong laws.
