Read all about it A fanatical Christian friend I had once told me how homosexuality was wrong, but he would not hate them "just" for being gay, and did he not believe they would go to hell. How magnanimous it is of Christians to let gays through the pearly gates, along with child murderers who have been redeemed on their way to the gas chamber. He would only say he "loves the sinner, but hates the sin." Sin? I would ask him, isn't it the least bit possible god created homosexuals to control the population? Or perhaps to provide nannies for orphaned children. Women were dropping left and right during childbirth...a flaming homosexual nanny would be a gift from god, in my mind. It wasn't possible to him that human beings are so complex, so much so that infinite variations are possible, and that this is one of the defective variations just like cleft palates, dwarfism, or red hair. I wouldn't normally compare gays to dwarfs, but I'm trying to reach Christian logic centers here; if a person did not choose to be homosexual, there is no way it could be a sin. Even more, it might be part of the grand design, of which Christians always profess not to have personal knowledge; that doesn't stop them from telling us they know better than we do when it comes to their belief systems. He couldn't answer why fanatical Christians are so concerned with who screws what in where. After all, if homosexuals are so evil, and they're recruiting, protect your kids from them the same way you would from drug dealers, or people who use the F word too much. It never made sense to him when I said, "It's none of your business what they do in bed, and NO, holding hands in public does NOT make it your business any more than it makes it my business whether or not you and your wife have oral sex, just because you hold hands in public." We must not tolerate fanatical Christianity any more than fundamentalist Islam. The ultimate path of each is the limitation of personal liberty and bloodthirsty pogroms. The Crusades may have been hundreds of years ago but Bosnia, Serbia, Sudan, and many others were just yesterday. Let's not have a tomorrow.
