I know WBC is one family. If that poster can show me links where mass media claims they have 1,000s of followers or that their views line up with the majority of Christians than he should.

Boom!!!! Upvoted

I applaud the guy for taking the step he did. people can make jokes about him all they want, but at the end of the day what Sam did was a brave thing to do.

This was actually a good publicity stunt by Sam. He realizes he probably won't get drafted after his performance against Auburn, so he needs to promote his name to the liberal media somehow. This gives him recognition after football.

wow
The handle is just an alter here for shock value. Don't encourage it. Or do, if you are entertained by that sorta thing. He won't stop either way really.

Gluttony? Southern conservative Christians in Dixie are statistically the fattest people on EARTH as a percentage, but do ever talk about gluttony? No you fricking don't. Are you supporting legislation to ban/limit fast food purchases?

So stop fricking acting like you see all sin equally, you fricking don't.

In other words, you use a strawman to declare the specific person a hypocrite.
We're all biased hypocrites, you just refuse to admit it.

Do you think pedophilia should be classed as a sexual orientation?

Utter nonsense. No church I have ever been in ignores all of that. BTW.. divorce is not a sin.

YES! 100%

As a matter of fact, I do support the limiting of what fast food franchises use. In fact, I believe that certain fats have been now banned!

I loath Cher and broadway show tunes. And we all know the gays are responsible for both's popularity. They are both abominations.

I applaud Michael Sam's decision to come out. It's a courageous decision and a huge first step (no matter how much it will be either chastised or belittled). I hope it gives strength to other gay players to not be scared to stand up for who they are.

That doesn't make it "ok", because usually there is only one consenting party and the other party is many cases is far too young to even know what sex is.

Upvote for you, my friend.
It's how the churches control the masses.

The catholic church makes a very clear distinction between mortal and venial sin, and the bible very clearly states that there are "sins onto death" which are worse than others.

Easy two gays can't procreate with one another biologically. If evolution created gays then why can't they reproduce together?
