It still does not change that holy writings ARE used to justify being dicks to other humans. If nothing happens that your super hero doesn't want, then things like slavery and bans on interracial marriage, just like being dicks to LGBT are something your super hero does want.
Guess who said this? "I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do, because I notice it always coincides with their own desires."
I don't think that your reasoning follows.
I I have distrust also, if I notice, that their speaking for God resembles their own desires, more than the scripture.
No, you distrust when you are not the boss. You trust like minded people, but good distrust is what keeps government neutral, not favoring one religion OR SECT over others.
Unlike you, wise people like Jefferson and Paine and Susan B Anthony <---Her quote, they all understood the dangers of pulpit politics.
We are not like Saudi Arabia or Iran, or Russian Orthodox Christian authoritarian BECAUSE our First Amendment and our oath of office FORBID government favoritism on the issue of religion OR sub sect of even the same religion.
If you don't like what other Christians claim about OUR laws, even if there were no atheists or other religions, you're still stuck with all the sub sects of Christianity and they DO NOT ALWAYS AGREE.
That is the reason JFK once famously said, "I will not use my article of faith to legislate".
You stupidly fear the bullshit Idea that liberals, not just atheists, but the left want an all out ban on religions. NO WE DO NOT, we simply do not want to go back to the very bible based bigotry of the past. Just like Kurdish Christians in Iraq didn't like being bullied by Sunni MUSLIM Sadam.
Your petty insecurities do not impress us or fool us.

LOL. That's the spirit of understanding the other side's position and then having a civil discussion!
BTW, that's a very strong claim. Prove it!

I'd say the same thing to you if you were Hindu and claimed Vishnu hated gays.
Don't like gay sex, don't have gay sex. But do not fucking hand me any bullshit about marriage being a cure all when heterosexuals have affairs and get divorces in far greater numbers. You still have NO FUCKING RIGHT to dictate to LGBT and they do not owe you shit.
We don't give a fuck what your book says, you are not the boss of anyone. We are not a theocracy and we do not live in a dictatorship.
There is no discussion or debate. TOUGH SHIT if you don't like what consenting adults do. Your baggage and bullshit is your baggage and bullshit. How about GROWING THE FUCK UP!
Anger? FUCKING RIGHT! Act like a bigoted dick, we will be more than happy to treat you like one. There are ALSO Christians who support LGBT, so you do not even get to decide for them either. Supporting LGBT is not a violation of your rights.
Dude, that's not healthy. You need to see someone about your anger issues. Seriously. You can't even read a post or understand a point without sending it through some crazed anger filter.
No, my anger is very healthy, your insecurities in trying to bully LGBT is what is unhealthy.
Your bullshit harms LGBT. I could give one shit less what you think of my use of language. If you don't want to be treated like a dick, don't act like one.
I hate bigots and bullies.
