Gay rights is wrong. God did not tolerate it. Why should we?

Do Muslims hate homosexuality? Yes. And they have no qualms about admitting it. Christians, on the other hand, try to sugar coat their hatred and bigotry, by saying dumb shit like "I love homosexuals, but their actions go against god's word", or other such things. They hide behind their religion, pretending to be all-loving, while harboring hatred in their hearts. Muslims, on the other hand, wear their religion on their sleeve, and aren't afraid to admit their beliefs, or hide the obvious. In this regard, Muslims are more repectful than fundamentalist and conservative/evangelical christians, in my opinion.
In which way did God not tolerate it?. Sodom and Gomorra doesn´t count, bearing in mind that he's overpassed Rome, Greece, Amsterdam and Harun Al-Raschid, among others.
What #878704 said.
Even assuming for the moment, for the sake of argument, that Sodom was destroyed for homosexuality, that is only ONE example of God not tolerating it.
What about all the other examples throughout history and throughout the world? From cultures which totally accepted it, to individuals doing it - God is strangely silent.
Seems like tolerance to me.
Moreover, Sodom and Gomorrah, Biblical scholars who are Christians and Jews alike say, was not punished over homosexuality but over lack of hospitality. Rape was a common way to humilliate people back then, regardless whether they were women or men.
Because God is an insane, fictional character, however, we are real, caring human beings. Got it?

Gay rights ARE wrong. God did not tolerate HOMOSEXUALITY.
On that note, your statement is full of bullshit anyway. Show me proof of the existence of your God. Show me proof that the Bible is accurate AT ALL.

First, there is no agenda.
Second, human rights is never wrong.
Third, god is an ass and so are those who hate in his name.
Funny how Gawd didn't smite David and the rather flaming Jonathan, don't you think?
@#878911: I remember someone explaining on FSTDT that, in this instance, the inhabitants of Sodom didn't mean it in the biblical sense when they said that they wanted to "know" the angels, they simply suspected the shady strangers who kept their faces hidden of being spies.
"God did not tolerate it. Why should we?"
Because if God hates it so much, you should just leave it to Him.
Does His all-powerfulness really need your help?
Gay rights is wrong. God did not tolerate it. Why should we?
Because we are more humane, wiser, smarter and more compassionate than the bigoted savages that made up your god.
@ a mind far, far away: An excellent point, but the difference is this: not all Christians (not even most of them) hate homosexuality. I'll take "I'd rather not think about it" to "I want to kill them".
But this guy is priceless, nonetheless.
@thejebusfire: How apt. How apt...
KarateMom has been featured here on FSTDT. In fact, it was shown she has a hard-on for Obama.

Okay, if that's the way you want to play it...
I'll get my friends together and we'll vote to take away your rights. No, you don't get to complain; we voted! No, you don't get a vote; you're not good enough because you're not one of us!
Unfair? Damn right! If you can't see what you're doing to gays after my little example, then you're officially beyond saving and should stop wasting oxygen.
Thanks for admitting that you lot = Al-Qaeda then. Oh, and...:

...God doesn't tolerate you . Otherwise your J-boy would've blown his horn, gone down and sucked you off way before now. So why does he tarry so...?! [/Millerites' Great Disappointment, 1844] [/'Campers' Great Disappointment II & III, May & Oct 2011]
Aye, and there's the doctrine-destroying rub Enjoy your daily Great Disappointment, heretics. >:D
Once the fundie-bashing... er, I mean the 'Tribulation' starts, ask yourselves this, o Ruptured Retards: Because you didn't tolerate those not exactly like you, give us one good fucking reason why we Atheists should care what happens to you in turn?
Karma's a bitch, ain't it?!

I refer you - and the homophobes on RR - to the Amnesty International signs on the above pink Abbot Self-propelled Gun: 'Love is a human right. Protect the human'.
SSM legalised in UK recently; that 'Gay Tank'. Judges 1:19 therefore proves that God is inferior to his creation, as those LGBT people on such are strangely un-smitten by that 'omnipotent' God; if 'Omnipotent', he wouldn't let a measly armoured vehicle stop him from exerting his 'wrath' if he 'hated' gays so much. Thus the above can only bring you to one of these conclusions (check one):
[ ] God now likes LGBT people, and hates you homophobic raptards; the 2 mile wide tornado in Oklahoma last year; Obama's re-election & death of the GOP. You lot not being sucked off; your J-boy's 'tarrying').
[ ] Welcome to the New Normal, and your 'God' doesn't fucking exist.
Choose wisely...!
Moral: If certain people - i.e. those not exactly like you - don't have the right to do as consenting adults in private should, as per the 10th Amendment, then - re. your need to tell others not exactly like you how they shouldn't , is in itself political , then kiss goodbye all your fundie ilk's Constitutional right to exist .
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
