Mister Sir Ryantology, discrimination based on sexual orientation is wrong, because its against God's wishes. If anyone is gay, didn't my god foresee this occurring? This is where fundamentalist false Christians fail in the eyes of our Lord.
I will spare you the why god is very discriminating lecture this once and will say no more on the topic of god in this thread. I promise.
