BPINAZ said:So, as an American I don't have the right to get pissed off and make a statement? Do I not have the right, or freedom, of speech like homosexuals, liberals, blacks, atheist, muslims, and others? Why is it that they can voice their opinions and beliefs, but as soon as a white guy does it, it's considered hate. Well sir, I'm not exactly white. Maybe I should be politically correct and use the term caucasion so that nothing gets lost in translation. My family is mixed. My father Cajun, mother Irish, grandmother Scandinavian, and so on. My wife is hispanic......do I need to continue with the family lineage? Needless to say, my family is colorful. Also, are certain races entitled to use words and names while others are not?
Are you insinuating that homosexuals do not have equal rights? If so, you're wrong. For instance, the whole bakery ordeal. Several bakers lost their businesses due to the fact that they would not comprises their moral conviction. Basically, the beliefs of the homosexuals were forced onto the bakery owners. How would you feel if you lost your livelihood simply because you did not agree with another person at your place of employment?
I'm not angry with you because of your rebuttle to my previous posts. You have the right to say, write, post, or believe whatever you like. The real culprit here....you're profile says your 26 years old, I'm in my 40's. I would be willing to bet that I was taught a different variation of history, or at least a different perspective, than you were. Just like my children were taught a different version than I was....I've read their high school history books. Therefore, we'll both have a different opinions on the 1st Amendment based on who's point of view we were taught by....teachers not only teach their area of expertise, they pass on their personal beliefs and inlfuences of the subject.
One more question.
Besides Jus Soli and Jus Sanguis, what have you done to earn your freedom of speech, you're entitlement to voice your personal beliefs and opinions? I'm asking, because we are loosing our rights. Broken window affect.....think about it.
Yeah man no anger here. I just love a good debate :smoke: All of that post wasn't all specifically directed at you. Probably should had said that in the beginning.
Im not trying to say you don't have the right to make the posts you did but just like tbitoy said... leave people alone and they should leave you alone. The whole story about gays forcing their way into those stores is wrong just like I believe trying to force your beliefs in their life is wrong. Live and let live and be done with it. As long as they aren't trying to harm you or take what is yours then let them get plowed in the ass or scissor all day long if they want to. As long as they do it in the walls of their own home then im ok with it. There shouldn't be pro white pro black pro gay or pro anything.... just everyone live their lives and stop trying to force their opinions on other people.
I honestly don't remember any of my teachers opinion on the 1st amendment, I just read it and don't see anywhere where it sais anything about Christianity. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof... that's the part about religion anyway.
What have I done to earn my rights? 1 word... taxes. Military service is not required in this country to earn citizenship but im signed up for the draft just live everyone else is that's 18 or older.
I 100% get that a person who is steeped in religion is not going to agree with this new law and thinks its one more step closer to the 2nd coming and all that but I just wish people would try to talk to gay people with a little more love and not all this hate. I personally don't see how you can change a person from being gay because its not like they chose that life. Not a single person on this planet could convince me to like sucking ****... will never happen I don't care how many religious quotes you throw at me. Im a male who loves me some women and even if the majority of the US turned gay I would still be heterosexual and I would hope they would leave me alone about it. Shouldn't religious people be happy about the 2nd coming anyway???? Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to go now... ( funny song imo )
If your not religious and you just don't like the idea of a gay couple being married... then that's called being an asshole in my opinion. Marriage at its core is about religion so look in the damn mirror. If your married and not religious what you have isn't a marriage its more of a " legal binding" than anything in my opinion. I was brought up in the church of Christ and ate that **** up as much as I could. It wasn't until I got to about 18 I started seeing a lot what I believe to be major flaws in religion so one day when I get "married" I could give a **** less if we use a preacher or not so if the name was changed to something else besides marriage because it wasn't based off religion I would be ok with that as long as it has the same legal applications a marriage does. I personally believe in a god because I see evidence of intelligent design but im not so sure god is what the bible sais "he" is. Agnostic is the word I believe.
It seems to me that with every new generation there is more and more acceptance to things. I cant tell you how many times I hear older generations talk **** about my generation and Im sure that the generation that is dead talked **** about their kids generation. Id say that if you go back 200 years every single one of those people would think we were ALL going to hell. They would pass the **** out if they saw a woman walking down the road with exposed skin and having a job... Carbon emissions wouldn't come from cars.... they would come from the billions being burned at the steak haha.
Every single one of us has the right to be pissed at anything that doesn't follow mainstream thinking... so flame the **** on if that's what you want to do I just personally don't think its the Christian thing to do.
