I actually had a short conversation with my grandmother about two guys she says are gay, and her wanting to bring them to the church so they could change. Because homosexuality is an "abomination".

I told her yeah, the bible says that. It also says a guy that finds a woman in a field can rape her there, pay a dowry to marry her, then continue to violate her as much as he wants. But if two men fall in love with each other, that's the abomination in the eyes of the lord.

Morality in the bible is skewed, and I make no bones about mentioning it, even if some would consider it blasphemy.

believers distorted legal awareness
they don’t know that other animals also have gay sex
this is the norm

Christians just hate sex in general, honestly. They only allow it with married couples because they know people need to breed for a community to exist.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.

Doesn't take much to make the fonts all one size. Just select all and pick a size. If that's too much work you may want to consider why you should bother posting the material.

That's a bit difficult to understand but it sounds like it's time for ricin application. Maybe in his borscht.

RE: Blasphemy law in the United States
@Interaktive You're partially right because there are some European countries that prohibit blasphemy.
Do you know article 166 of Strafgesetzbuch (German penal code) ?

In USA laws against blasphemy aren't applied nowadays in my knowledge because it was considered there are unconstitutional.


In some states books you can find matters relative to prosecution of homosexuality and others practices considered as sodomy  but there aren't applied.
Even if I'm a French who did never put a foot in USA.
I don't forget some time ago anal and oral sex in male to male relationship was illegal in some states.
I don't forget some time ago anal and oral sex in straight relationship was illegal in some states.
In 2003 sodomy laws were invalidated by Supreme Court of United States with Lawrence v. Texas (Full case name : John Geddes Lawrence and Tyron Garner v Texas , United States Reports : 539 U.S. 558 (Open the page 558 of United States Reports volume 539 to find the case))
This case law on Wikipedia : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_v._Texas
Read the case law : https://www.loc.gov/item/usrep539558/
More about anti-sodomy laws in USA (Some of these are still in state statute even if unenforceable because of Lawrence v. Texas) : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodomy_law...ted_States

I'm speaking of this to say there are many things in states books that are unenforceable because there were ruled unconstitutional.
I'm impressed to see states books contain illegal things because there are unconstitutional.
I think it's funny to read unenforceable stuff in states books because they were de facto repealed because the "Supreme Court of the USA" said it's unconstitutional but than state legislatures didn't repealed the unconstitutional texts even if there are not enforced.

You spoke about blasphemy laws but what's about obscenity laws ? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Sta...cenity_law

If god dislikes blasphemy (or anything else) why does he not do something to stop it himself, why is it always humans who have have to do his work for him? Lazy idle god!

When the grand creator's tiny wittwe feewings are battered by the meer mention of insubordination or non-conformity it becomes so despondent and unable to cope with the situation. Thankfully, its therapy guerillas are there to comfort it, and correct such distressing conditions.
