In reply to Ken. They only believe in their imaginary friends to make them feel better. Stay away from religion and the bible and you will be a better person for it.

So homosexuality is biblically an abomination. So is eating pork. I wonder if this cherry-picking christian hypocrite ever eats bacon or ham? ‘Nuff said.

The ACDP has a policy and philosophical conundrum on their hands. They’re a political party routed in Christianity in a country with a supreme Constitution and a Bill of Rights – which is not based on any religion. If they are applying the Bible to their politics then sure they should be parading outside non-christian churches are according to the Bible this would be pagan. “Nobody comes to the Father but through Me” – as the Bible said. So is this lot going to attack everything that not Christian or just a select few things. That being the case, then this is clearly discriminatory and calculated to offend a particular group, namely our community. When will Christians in leadership positions realise that our society is regulated by a Constitution and not the Bible. You have the right to believe whatever you like but judging whether people are sinners or not based on a religion to which neither the country nor members of the public ascribe to is just wrong, unconstitutional and constitutes hates speech. The case of the offended scholar and preacher in Grahamstown is going before the Equality Court at some point and I hope it will clarify this eternal religious freedom and freedom of speech vs LGBT rights to dignity and freedom of association.

How sad if the only reason for two people (man and woman in this case) to be together is to reproduce. He needs to practice his Christianity a bit more – judge not less ye be judged, love one another as I have loved you etc. Of course he would be one of those Christians who have very little to do with Jesus and more with religion. #sad
