From what I have seen people who are atheist or gay have a far higher moral standards than most
Christians. They are more accepting, understanding and do not have their morals dictated to them
through that of a book. |

I have Gay friends who are not evil, and one of my best friends is an Atheist. May I add that he is
one of the kindest, most thoughtful people on this planet. In fact I haven't met a Christian yet,
with a higher standard of kind morals. Keep the Faith! |

Yes indeed. And you have an interesting past Scorpion, and I mean that as a compliment.
I was raised very Catholic but now am much more open minded. I've never been an atheist but I also
don't think any of the church dogmas are necessary for an individual to win God's grace. And I've
known people from many different world religions, as well as atheists, who were living their lives
equal or better than most Christian's I knew.
I also went through a phase when younger trying for abstinence and waiting for marriage, but in
college I took that next inevitable step and have had no regrets since. I don't think I was a
better person then, nor a better person now (but I do feel more mature and balanced after getting
over being uptight about abstinence), and frankly I don't think anymore that nonmarital sex reflects
badly on a person's morals. As long as they're responsible about it. Nor do I have any issues with
homosexuality, what other people choose to do for sex is their own business so long as it's not
illegal. |

If there was any sin. Let him who is without sin cast the first stone. |

I agree, this is only common sense. You can't base a few decisions made by one to judge him or her
overall. |

I’m inclined to agree. |

Who cares?
Not to be calloused about the "issue" but I think the fact that it is an issue only proves that evil
and immorallity exist on both sides of it.
People, right or wrong, are going to have opinions about it, and those opinions are as acceptable as
the behavior/beliefs.
In the grand scheme of things I tend to agree with the above statement, but defend a society's right
not to. If, as a whole, a society finds these things unacceptable, so be it. I don't care.
I don't think it's any big secret that I'm a conservative. I applaud any gay/atheist who has the
same political views I do. If that person were to run for office, that would be great too. However
if that person was running against a straight christian - and all views we're equal, the straight
christian gets my vote.
That's all for now. |
