LGBT vs Christians (Hometown Assembly - Please Read Before Watching)

in #dtube7 years ago (edited)


Seriously?

So today I went truck shopping. Pops rode with and we had to stop at the U-Haul place to re-up a storage unit. The entire block was surrounded by Christians bearing signs like 'Homo sex is a sin'. Within the block were LGBT peeps. A few months ago, the awareness of the not-so-straight community came to light to the Christian populace as they volunteered to read stories for children at the public library. Now, I could care less what a human's sexual orientation is. I am comfortable with boobs and if you like scissors, good on ya. But here in Tennessee, some people aren't as apt to 'turn the other cheek' or see the planks in their own eyes. You'll see what I mean in the video.

oh boy. where do i start.

i was baptized a few years ago. and have spent the better part of 2016-to present reading the bible and becoming as close to God as i know how.

the one thing i have learned is that when we start pointing fingers there are a few pointed right back at us.

what a mess. here’s scripture that make it pretty clear to me.

1 John 4:7-8

God is love.

i’m most definitely not the be all and end all of this faith lol i’m learning. but nowhere does it say to hate your fellow man. ever.

at least that’s the bible ive read lol

crazy times we live in

God is love. The three most important words in that entire collection of books. Too often forgotten and misinterpreted.

Witty, i choose to ignore such fucking bollocks. My 22 year old son has gay mates and most kids I work with do and find it odd people would see anyone other than just who they are. These guys are a laughable dying breed ... doesnt mean you shouldn't front up... but dont despair THEY ARE DONE.

Laughable dying breed indeed. No room for such ignorance anymore.

When I see two guys going at it with tongue and all it still makes me squirm a little. But what gives me the right to judge that. Heck, before I was married I slept with numerous women ...too many to remember. According to the Bible that is no better.

And what about these far Right people who are divorced and remarried ?? That is no better than Gay people according to the Bible.

So just live and let live I say. It's between God and that person. Please ,no loud lecturing

Lmao🤣not my preferred method of arousal either, but ya, to each their own. We're never gonna traverse the stars until racism, homophobia and segregated religions cease to exist. 😐

That is scary in so many ways. Sad in even more ways. Let people just be people. and those people need way more to do on a Saturday like take care of their own families

They probably don't have cute puppies or kittens to pet so they're all angry and had to take it out on someone.

Imagine, the sin of reading to children?

Ya, that was sad man. Lunatics on the loose.

Howdy sir enginewitty! these people give Christians a bad name. You aren't going to influence anyone to even look at your position by being so obnoxious. They're driving people away.

They are too. I mean, if you're trying to attract attention, I suppose any press is good press, but this is just sad.

totally agree sir enginewitty!

I lived with a gay couple a few years back, we were walking down the street in the city and some christian's were handing out leaflets and wanting to talk to people about church/god. One lady approached us and gave us some handouts, one of the men said 'I wouldn't be welcome at your church lovely' she said 'sweeite everyone is welcome in god's church', to which he replied 'oh your church actually welcomes gays?'. She snatched the handout from his hand, turned on her heel huffing and puffing and stormed off. I remember thinking to my self lady, you are so disconnected from god and you have absolutely no idea of it.

But it is fair to say not all christians are like this, i also know one or two devout christians who are more modern in their thinking and have no issues with it at all.

No, they're not. This was just a particularly rude sect in my city. Definitely not a church I'll be attending.

Aaaand that’s why I’m not involved with the church anymore. Hypocrisy, intolerance, judgmentalism, and narrow-mindedness are divicive, and accomplish nothing. This makes me sad.

Narrow-minded for sure hun. If churches can't accept others, how are the masses expected to conquer racism?
