It also says it is unclean to eat shellfish. Red Lobster has a 2 hour wait for a table every Sunday after church!!

Gimme a break holy people!


<snicker>

Though to be fair, that stuff they serve at Red Lobster can only charitably be described as food, much less seafood.

Yes the woman must submit to the man. Eph 5:21-23, Col 3:18 Thanks for reminding us.



Another thing that's found in Paul but not in the gospels.

22:49 here and I usually take what Paul says with a grain of salt.

But I like how he tells women to love and respect their husband but doesn't forget to tell the husband to love his wife like Christ loves the church - to the point he gave his life for her.

If only each of us did our part of the deal...

Did any of you actually READ the article?? This was not a serious debate of the bible for crying out loud. Are you all seriously going to start explaining why homosexuality really IS wrong according to the bible? That's insane. Enjoy your stupid religion that condones referring to an entire class of people as subhuman. Jerks.

The Ranting Atheist. S/he obviously hasn't read any of the preceding posts, and that combined with insults makes her a complete waste of time. She's basically a troll, although she'd have you believe that there's a different set of rules when the trolling involves religion.

Her arrival means the thread is dead, because all the reasonable people who want to have a conversation start leaving.

HA! I'm not the ranting atheist that you think you're referring to. The article posted was tongue in cheek humor. Or do you need to look that up to know what it means, because you clearly don't have any. This thread is dead because it was a funny article posted and you assholes "want to have a conversation" about frickin' scriptures and crap. It was A FUNNY POST. Do you not understand that??

New poster here - by "reasonable," you mean the posters who are quoting Cathechism and the Bible to argue that homosexuality is wrong?

Huh. I've apparently been mistaken about the meaning of "reasonable" all these years. I'll have to go look it up.

Who made you DCUM censor? What I don't understand is how somebody can post something and you think the rest of us shouldn't be allowed to discuss it.

And apparently you also ignored the several posters (including me) who said that Jesus didn't say anything against homosexuality. So you just focus on the posts you want to focus on....

Calling the scriptures "crap" just underscores how stupid and immature you are....

I bet the poster who called the scriptures "crap" would object to be called a troll. But she is a troll. Just because the context is religion, doesn't mean that it's OK to call other peoples' thoughts and beliefs "crap." It makes you a troll.

Ignore the troll.

Why do so many atheists come off as obnoxious, rude, immature bullies? Who want to shout insults instead of having a two-way conversation? I'm talking to you, 11:21/11:50, and to the Ranting Atheist. (I'm not convinced you're different people, but it sucks for thoughtful conversation if there's more than one of you.)

There are definitely some thoughtful atheists on DCUM. But 11:21/11:50 ruins it for the rest of the atheists.

If you atheists want to be taken seriously, you need to clean up your act.

Sure, but God didn't actually *mean* that. Or if he did, it was a parable. Now the things that I *personally* find either offensive or alien? All those prohibitions are meant to be literal.

You all need to get a sense of humor, lighten up, and stop lecturing. Yeah, I'm talking to you 12:28. Who made you DCUM Atheist Police? Yes, there are many of us on the board, and yes, there are more than one of whom you consider ranting, i.e. "don't agree with you." The whole thread was completely hijacked by religious folks who actually took it seriously. Are you all really that one-dimensional that you lack all humor?
