Bigger Threat Than Terrorism or Islam

"Homosexuality," From Sally Kerns, a Christianist er., Republican Representative in Oklahoma as she addressed a secret Republican group on the homosexual lifestyle.

Here is the audio of her remarks:



This is one of the best reasons for an absolute position on free speech: it is easy to find out who the radical people in society are.

According to CNN, the Representative will not back down for her beliefs. Hopefully, the good people of Oklahoma will show a basic level of human decency and vote her out of office.

Isn't there something in the Bible about thou shalt not judge? I don't understand how so many Christians can openly damn homosexuals to hell (which, unless I'm completely misreading the rhetoric) a judgment, seemingly overlooking the fact that they are casting judgment. Doesn't that mean that in casting judgment they are also sinning? I am the only one to see a problem with this?

We all know that the Bible, Old and New Testaments, have just way too many rules.

Consequently, it is best just to focus on the one or two you think is most important and then carry on publicly regardless of what the rest of the rules state. Do we really care about prohibitions on shell fish or wearing clothing made from different types of material?
