Birmingham (Alabama) mayor denies gay parade permit

[Mark&Steph 0]

I hate homosexuality not necessarily homosexuals.....

You don't hate them necessarily but you'd like to see them go to jail. Okay....

[Alhamdulillah 0]

So why are you so afraid to say 'i would rather the child grow up alone than with gays' since that's your position that the kid would be worse off?

IF that's how you feel, then own it, instead of fannying about with the 'oh there's always an alternative' bollox

I'm not afraid to say anything (you must not have been around much to know me ) You're giving me an choice that's not likely to ever happen.... there will always be someone else to care for the child other than a gay person or couple unless everyone on the planet died except the child and the gay person/couple. That's ridiculous and is not a choice that anyone would ever have to make.

No, I'd like to see them do the right thing.

You prefer something that isn't logical just because you think it cames from god? That would be laughable if your histeria didn't affect the way other people can live their lives.

Who says it isn't logical? You? Who made you the authority on logistics? Who/what have you created, designed and given life to?

Another example of your ability to think clearly, logically and rationally? There are thousands of children in care today because they can't find any sort of foster parent to give them a loving home so your 'there will always be someone other than a gay person' argument is as flawed as it is malicious.

Logistics? That would be logic. I do not subscribe to the fairy tale that is god created everything so your histerionics are meaningless to me.

They aren't "alone" if they're in "care"

It's not my fault this country and others have a low sense of family values and the people here refuse to take care of their family members or orphaned children of their community. The fact remains that there are people who could take care of these children..... whether or not they are willing is another matter.

Oh I'm sorry I mistyped something....

If you refuse to accept something so simple as the fact that it took some being of higher intelligence to create everything then you're opinions are meaningless to me..... fools have no credibility with me.

You'd like to see homosexuals 'do the right thing'? They are doing the right thing, living their lives according to their own orientation. However, you are very disingenuous. We know you want to put homosexuals in jail, you said so, because they offend your sensibilities. There is nothing moral about your position because homosexuals have no adverse affect on you, your life or the lives of anyone they touch and yet you want to see them 'do the right thing' which is presumably abstain from having a loving relationship because hetrosexual sex is as abhorrant to them as homosexual sex is to you, or somehow 'convert' to hetrosexuality or if they can't restrain themselves throw them in jail. As I said before, your logic leads you to some horrid conclusions and all in the name of obeying this god of yours. Nice.

There are LOADS of kids without any permanent homes, without someone to call 'mom' or 'dad'.....you assert that its not likely to happen, but it already is happening.

I don't see why, if you feel you are on the side of right and morality, why you won't just say what you already have said, but are hiding behind semantics...

Oh, and I know u plenty. Even have a piccie of you in a pink headdress holding a rifle....that is, if you are who I think you are

Who's the fool? There is nothing at all in the real world that requires there to have been a 'higher intelligence' in order for it to exist. That is a quaint notion and gives some comfort but it's not real or scientifically sound.

All I see that religion does is cause massive death -

Hung for being gay, lovely, this just makes me sick, really it does

This poor thing for Adultery, and you only need three males to say they saw you do it. Speachless

God seems a little cruel to me, but than again what do I know

"I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own -- a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotism."

Albert Einstein

"Without religion, we'd have good people doing good things, and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion."

Why would you be holding onto a picture of me? Obsessed much?

Good for Mayor Larry Langford we need more of his kind to ban gays and stupid pride parades. Too bad can not do the same in SF lol.

There's plenty of proof of the existance of God but no one can force another person to acknowledge it if they're blind to it by choice.

Where is your proof that those men were hung for being gay? Where's your proof that woman was buried for adultery?

Where's your proof that God told men to do that?

What kind of woman would have sex with a man in front of four (not three) other men?

Don't be so absurd, VP....I wouldn't have even brought it up had you not pulled the 'oh you don't know me' card....Now, with absurdities aside...can we get back to the matter at hand, please?

Would you rather see a teen homeless on the street with no one or with gay parent(s)? Don't even tell me teen homelessness doesn't exist.
