I am explaining the belief because most of you are not capable of even articulating the belief and pointing out that most of the charges are mischaracterizations and straw men--not much of a foundation for civil discourse.
It is utter foolishness to argue with atheists about the foundation of a belief which starts with "Well, in the beginning God...".
I know happy gay people. My religious beliefs do not make me a bigot--by definition. You cannot win this point.
I'd argue it is utter foolishness to argue about any belief that starts with 'In the beginning God..'.
It is a foolish start to any argument.
I'd point out that many of those who argued against miscegenation did so from a Biblical basis and were quite logical in their reasoning. But they were still bigots.
