Wrong. You have no right to say what the truth is for other people or not. You have no right to set standards. But you do have a right to say you believe in god and you do have a right to continue being homophobic. Holding those beliefs is beyond me.

I am atheist and am not homophobic (I was for quite some time) and the truth for me is there is no god because it is not necessary.

The truth? You, of course, know the truth. The voices, the result of a biochemically altered brain tell you. You don't know the truth.

Man controls his own destiny. As well as having great power, we have great responsibility. We should stop clinging to this childish notion that a super-deity will save us from ourselves...

Tolerance is based on carelessness and selfishness? My God man, has anyone ever threatened to lock you up?
Homosexuality infringes on my rights to live a peaceful life where I don't have to see, hear, or read about homosexuality. I probably would be locked up in England, where they worship tolerance and the only sin is being intolerant which is actually hypocritical since they are being intolerant of those who are intolerant, thereby being intolerant too. Thank God I live in America.

You can't really be comparing allowing sex between two consenting adults and murdering someone, can you?

That's none of your concern and not part of this thread, and it's probably not what you think.

Perhaps this is because you've convinced yourself you and your faith are unquestionably right. It's most likely a defense mechanism to protect yourself from your homosexual urges. (It's a sin, I can't! It's a sin! It's a sin! ad naseum until he truly believes it)

If you knew the Bible, you would know that it says you cannot be saved unless you become like a child. What great power do we have that can not be taken from us? We are fragile as clay pots. A bullet in the head would end your life. There you go making gods out of Man again.

Yeah, we are not very strong. So what, it means we should treasure life all the more. And quite how does our fragility have any bearing on the existence of a God? And the existence of the bible for that matter, after all, arguing that the bible is proof and God and vice versa is just circular logic and has no basis.

I find it interesting, since evolution relies on circular logic as well, that you would point that out about Christianity. I think if you search the world, you will find no idea that doesn't rely on circular logic.

Christianity relies on this circular logic whereas evolution is a theory with considerable amounts of empirical evidence...stacks of the stuff, and new evidence fits in with the theory. The theory has been refined over the year, not overturned or change, just more flesh added to the bone. Evolution, and neodarwinian evolution do not rely on circular evidence. Unlike the God/Bible scenario

They do rely on circular reasoning because you assume things that you can't prove. And then you run with it. You take a fossil and make a bunch of assumptions about it. And since you can't be proven wrong (because there are no time machines), you assume that you must be right. Then you build on that. Then you come back later and use it as evidence to prove something else. That's circular reasoning.

But gay sex doesn't affect you, unless you're being raped (something tells me you'd like it).
