A small experment
February 24, 2013 at 12:03 am
(This post was last modified: February 24, 2013 at 12:18 am by Gooders1002.)
I was wondering are theist more or less likely to be pro gay than Atheists.
First I am a gay man And I will openly admit that and I want to know if homophobia is in the religion then the person. So If you could answer he poll I would be grateful.
I am, drunk at time of writing so I apologize for that, and please be truthful and maybe an explanation for why you choose the option you did would be helpful.
( If you are in-between like [an agnostic atheist] please tick the closest to your position)

Freudian slip, Daniel. Don't worry about it.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Remember I am drunk (at time of writing) so cut me some slack please. I will respond fully when I have sobered up.

For my part, it was a bit of good-nature ribbing, but if I caused offense I apologise unreservedly. If it's any consolation, I was the first to cast a vote.

I want to know who really who, believes what.

I struggle to find a reason why I might deny another person any right I might myself wish to enjoy based on where he/she sticks his/her hoo-hoo-dilly.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
