For them to acknowledge this would necessarily refute their concept of tolerance, which holds that all ideas are of equal merit. In their infinite resourcefulness, they carve out an exception to their demand for universal tolerance when it comes to their treatment of Christians.
To them, Christianity’s exclusive truth claims are simply beyond the pale—so bad as to disqualify Christians from receiving tolerance from others. One secularist university administrator, for instance, disciplined a conservative professor for exposing her class to literature from a Christian viewpoint, which included an article about how teachers should approach homosexuality. The administrator exclaimed, “We cannot tolerate the intolerable.” You see, it’s fairly easy for these types to extricate themselves from their indefensible positions. They simply move the goalposts. Talk about defining truth through power!

What you seem unwilling to understand is that your kind of born-again, praise jeeeezus Christianity is irrelevant. (Unless of course you live in those parts of the U.S. where they have greeting cards which say: "Happy Birthday Uncle Dad".) Nobody with even half a brain gives it any thought at all. In fact, not too many folks give all that much thought to homosexuality ... you mentioned it by the way ... any more, except maybe some politicians wishing to get votes ... It's a fact of life, always has been, always will be. Of course, those not dealing from a full deck consider that gays pose a greater threat than all the nuclear warheads in the world ... that's including the ones the Russian mob have sold to assorted lunatics. I still can't fathom why naz ... oops ... ultra-conservative Christians are so fascinated by gay sexuality.
It's probably all they talk about as they sit around planning an assasination of a doctor who performs abortions.
And please don't quote the Bible in rebuttal ... that too is irrelevant, except as a work of literary art.
Face it Kevin, your religion is irrelevant, and so are you. I trust that you have a human side. But not once have you shewn it in your posts. Even your praise of your wife is filched from the Bible. If I wished to tell a woman, "I love you", I wouldn't reach for the damned Bible. I would give her a huge hug (oops, wandering to another thread
) and say "I love you."
