Quote (thethinker @ Aug. 19 2009,10:02)I did not say I have some new covenant. I said that we are in the new covenant age inwhich putting people to death has passed away. Why are you creating a distraction?thinkerThis supposed “new covenant age” is not a universal thing for mankind according to the Jeremiah passage. It is only for Israel.

t8, why did you not address the OP instead of me? Or is it OK to commit crimes against someone who is gay merely because they are gay?

Quote (thethinker @ Aug. 20 2009,03:01)The bold lettering also does not infer that A = B.

Depends. If someone assaulted an older person because it could be shown they did it due to prejudice against the elderly, it could be a “hate” crime. If it was just to get a purse, no “hate” crime. Likewise, not all crimes committed against gays will be seen as “hate” crimes, just those that are motivated by a demonstrable prejudice.Should it be a…[Read more]

You just don't get it WJ. The article was “in your face” (as was the picture) because they wanted you to give you what you already accuse them of. It hit upon many of the stereotypes of the fundmantalist Christian view of homosexuals. That you took it seriously says more about you than the writer.

WJ,In this thread, you have been arguing that the homosexual agenda is to “convert all others to homosexuality”. While you have not done an admirable job of backing this assertion, could I not also say that it is the agenda of the Christians (at least on this site) to condemn homosexuals?
