I don't seek your approval for my stance or how I state it. P/C can go to hades. As was stated - bless your heart. Because you really are showing a Christain attitude. Is a "Christian attitude" (and who gets to define it) required to post here? I am sick of flaming homosexuals being forced in my face 24/7. It has gone from just leave us alone, to tolerate us, to forced acceptance to you WILL celebrate our perversion or we will boycott you right out of your job, home and when the inevitable end comes, into the camps.
Nobody is "forcing" you to celebrate any perversion. In fact, nobody is forcing you to "tolerate" anything, for that matter. Only you can decide that. If gay people are "in your face" it's because you are being goaded into reacting with so much vitriol. That just fans the flames. I don't feel threatened by the gay lifestyle at all. I have enough sins of my own to worry about before I take up the mantle of social responsibility and start passing judgement on others whose private acts pose no threat whatsoever to me or anyone else. If I want to look for sins, it behooves me to start by looking in the mirror first. Try it sometime. |

*Lick* Yup, just as I thought.....Bitter! On a serious note, I pray that one day you find peace from the demons that are causing you to be so miserable and hate filled. Oh and that has nothing to do with the fact that you find us homosexuals revolting. I simply cannot fathom how anyone can carry around such anger as to be able to express any opinion with such venom. |

I don't really like your use of the words "flaming homosexual" but I found a SpongeBob picture that makes it a bit funnier AND it has a rainbow (hehehe)

     Location: Oklahoma | Hatred for a group is often born of fear and lack of knowledge and understanding. Tolerance and compassion does not have to mean agreeing with someone's lifestyle, choices or opinions, but it does mean at least listening, learning, and taking the time to understand where they are coming from and the thought process behind their beliefs and actions. One can wholeheartedly disagree with someone, but still apreciate the opposing position.
At least bigoty on this forum is far outweighed by those who don't tolerate that frame of mind. |

I'm pretty sure the bible defines Christian attitude. In several places. It was kind of one of Christ's most important messages......
John 13:34 (Read all of John 13)A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.John 13:35 (Read all of John 13)By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.John 15:12 (Read all of John 15)This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.John 15:17 (Read all of John 15)These things I command you, that ye love one another.Romans 12:10 (Read all of Romans 12)Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; Romans 13:8 (Read all of Romans 13)Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. Galatians 5:13 (Read all of Galatians 5)For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. Ephesians 4:2 (Read all of Ephesians 4)With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; 1 Thessalonians 3:12 (Read all of 1 Thessalonians 3)And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you: 1 Thessalonians 4:9 (Read all of 1 Thessalonians 4)But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another. Hebrews 10:24 (Read all of Hebrews 10)And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: 1 Peter 1:22 (Read all of 1 Peter 1)Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: 1 Peter 3:8 (Read all of 1 Peter 3)Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: 1 John 3:11 (Read all of 1 John 3)For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. 1 John 3:23 (Read all of 1 John 3)And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. 1 John 4:7 (Read all of 1 John 4)Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 1 John 4:11 (Read all of 1 John 4)Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. 1 John 4:12 (Read all of 1 John 4)No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us. 2 John 1:5 (Read all of 2 John 1)And now I beseech thee, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment unto thee, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.
And I'm not really sure how gay people are in your face "24/7".... I mean is the only channel you get on TV Logo????
And Camps? Really???

I do like camping, though the last time I went, I cut my thumb in half with a hammer hatchet.
It was however, a memorable way to spend my first wedding aniversary (in the OR) hahahaha |

          Location: Bastrop, Texas | We're going camping at the Conrad Hotel in Chicago in June for a couple days. That's my idea of fun camping. A great Chicago restaurant, meeting some old buddies, a Cubs game at Wrigley....and camping at the Conrad. |

Nice! Make sure you hit up Water Tower Place and eat at the Original Cheesecake Factory- you'd have to cab it.
Grand Lux is also pretty close, and delic! If you are into fondue, make sure you eat at the Melting Pot....House of Blues is cool to catch a quick show... lots to due in that area! Have a great time!
And whatever you do, eat at Lou Malnati's and get some deep dish pizza.... its amazing |

I'm sure they will have a wide selection of salads, and plants, and weeds, and seeds, and nuts and sh!t like that, NTO. She eats like a bird anyway. If they have chicken she might eat that. Chicks love chicken and yogurt and plants and green tea. |
