Christians (my team) need to get their heads on straight. People who struggle with homosexual desires/tendencies need not to be hated on or yelled at; there is moral responsibility for homosexual acts/lifestyles, but there is also moral responsibility for lying - do we wear shirts that says “God hates liars”? No, because we share that same sin, so we wouldn’t want ourselves looking bad - instead we pick on the people who live homosexual lifestyles because that doesn’t point out our own sin.

Get a grip, guys. People with homosexual desires/tendencies/lifestyles do not need to be bashed, because that does nothing but make God look awful and Jesus look uncompassionate; instead, share the gospel, because as much as you yell at them, without Christ they have no reason to change. Once someone becomes a Christian and becomes a new creation with a new heart and new desires, *then* HELP them to live a sexually pure life, either with a member of the opposite sex or celibate, whichever is possible/needed.

I hope this can be a beacon for the Church to any person being bashed by the Church. Maybe give a Church a try with the RIGHT attitude toward persons with homosexual tendencies - that you should be welcomed with open arms and have the gospel shared with you, and if you then accept Christ your desire to live the homosexual lifestyle will fall to the background as your new desire to please God will come to the forefront of your heart, just as it has with myself and with any other *real* Christian you talk to (and there are PLENTY who claim to be Jesus’ people, but are not, and they make God look bad - please look past them and look at Jesus, because people only screw up what Jesus would have us do as we’re all imperfect, even as Christians).

The scripture is “He who has no sin, throw the first stone” because NO ONE has no sin and has no room to be criticizing anyone for sinning. God says not accept the lifestyle of homosexuality but not to put it down because its just as bad of a sin to make fun of it as it is to be living it.

What part of 1 Corinthians 14:33-14:36 don’t you understand? The bible cleary defines woman aren’t worth as much as men (Leviticus 27:1-7), so if you have some kind of idea you’d like to share please run it by a man first before running your mouth, because your opinion holds no weight, at least not as much as mine, a real man, praise the LORD!”

Actually, you are doing as many do with the Bible and taking it out of context not only of the chapter and paragraph, but of the times. This paragraph is directed towards church worship and as such is addressing some issues that those in the church of Corinth had. In those times, the men would sit in the front and the women in the back. It was such that the front was on the lower level and closer to speaker whereas the back was raised up a level and farther away. Women could not hear the speaker as well and would talk across the way to their husbands asking what was said and such. THIS is why it is said for women to keep quiet “in church” (also duly noted that the verse does say ‘in church’, not ‘in general’ or ‘everyday’ discussions) and ask their husbands things when they are home. To keep the church sacred.

You have to toe the line, or you will be pulled out of the line the next time you use the airport.

The Democratic half of the Illusionistic dance of the fictional 2 parties
has squandered it’s last election mandate to end/change/impeach/ do SOMETHING.

All of this is theatre, designed to distract attention from the lizzards devouring our heritage.
Aren’t you amused?

I would be interested to know what you think after you complete your deliberations.

For me, it was an extreme over-reaction. Of course, in the days before tazer guns, he would have likely taken a few boots to the head or a couple of whacks with a night stick or billyclub or a couple of kicks to the crotch.

Every time I run it through my thought processes, I can simply not see such a scenario play out up here… hell, the cops have to fill out paperwork if they even unlock their holsters (and you should have heard the hue and cry that went up when the cops here went to open top holsters from closed holsters). If you recall the school shootings in Montreal last year at Dawson College, one of the cops who shot the gunman said it was the first time in 25 years on the job that he ever had to draw his service weapon and fire it (other than on the firing range for re-certification).

Its a great testiment to those that you are working with.
One can tell that alot of heart went into this production.
All the best,

Like you, I hope she has found peace and happiness wherever she may be.
