Are there gays that want no part of the large movement that is seeking to overthrow western society? Of course! But they need to take charge and step up throttle this thing back, because they are getting painted with the same brush. And the paint is the blood of the innocent kids being sacrificed.

I'll say it again, the "right" to play dressup and bang a dude in the ass on the down square does not in any sane universe equate to the right to keep and bear arms.

False equivocation my friend.

I drew an inarguable parallel between two types of advocacy.

I support gay people having all of the rights and opportunities that the rest of us have. That includes the right to advocate for their cause. Each time I have mentioned that, someone has argued with me on the grounds of progression. Interestingly enough, if you listen to liberals, they say the same thing about gun owners. Gun owners want every man, woman and child, criminal, mentally ill, out on bail for murder or otherwise defective, to carry guns. They do that for the same reason it is being done here.

As you might guess, based on what I wrote earlier in this thread, I come in contact with gay people on a regular basis. NONE of them advocate for pedophilia, "playing dressup and banging dudes in the ass on the down square" or any of the other red herrings that have been bandied about in this discussion.
So you are ok with gays adopting children? Also, I literally do not know one gun owner who is in favor of a criminal having gun rights

There are two parts to your response.

Yes, I support gays rights to adopt. I don't like it. My default mindset is that children need a male and female mother and father figure to properly socially and emotionally adjust. I don't mind challenging my beliefs as open-mindedly as I possibly can. Here's where that quest to challenge my beliefs lands me. https://whatweknow.inequality.corne...of-children-with-gay-or-lesbian-parents/

There have been numerous conversations here where people have spoken out in favor of felons regaining their right to keep and bear arms. But that's not the point. The point is that the opposition resorts to red herring extremes to muddy the issue.
Why such a high drive to be as open minded as possible? Do you not see where this has taken us?

Empathy is simply inextricably entwined into my personal constitution. My mother can tell stories of my empathy from way back in elementary school. I always do my best to understand what it's like to walk in another person's shoes. Admittedly, it would be much more convenient to simply say "fugk them people who are different from me."

Obtuseness doesn’t become you, but if you’re content believing the same folks who’ve lied to us the last few years and have sought to undermine our republic that’s fine by me.

That’s what Lenin called a “useful idiot”.

I had to look that up.

Who has more virtue, the person who does what is right because externally it will be seen to be right (virtue signalling), or the person who does right because they know within themselves that it is the correct thing to do?

Do you really think you are the first to attempt that ?

Swampy,

I've had many religious debates with Antlers. Although our beliefs are different, you attack on him is totally unjustified. He's an honest debater, and there's nothing in his quoted post inconsistent with what he's said in the past. I have no good reason to think these are not his honest beliefs, and his position on The New Covenant and Grace are held by a good many Christian here on The Fire.

You attack on his is way off base.

He knows it, and he doesn't care. He's not here to engage in intellectually honest debate.

If you have access to a Bible, and I truly hope you do, read what Romans, chapter one has to say. In case you don’t know, Romans is in the New Testament, and therefore not some “old covenant .”

I suggest you continue on and read it in the context of Romans chapter two.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I do not see where Antlers has offered his opinion on whether homosexuality is a sin. I only see where he essentially says love the sinner, regardless of your belief, which is absolutely correct. Who among us is living in perpetual sin? Porn, drunk, adultery, greed, gluttony, covetousness; its no different.

It’d be politically incorrect and mean if we didn’t.

That settles it…
