I've always despised people who sexualize animals to look like humans, and I do consider it very close to beastiality conventions, that much is true.

-but that does not make it okay to bring harm to them. Perverts are human beings too, and they are not, nor should they ever be, harmed for their deviancy. Not only dioes it create martyrs and destroy the opposition's credibility, it's simply a sick and unbecoming act of hate that has no place in the civilized world. The fact that we live in a world so fallen that people are doing this more and more hurts my heart.

They're our neighbors as much as like-minded people are. In fact, it is much more pleasing to God to treat the ones you despise with love and civilized behavior than the ones you like. Anyone can like people like them. It takes a whole lot more effort to like people who don't think like you.

Very true.

Unfortunately, some people will inevitably point the finger at Leviticus despite the fact that Hebrews basically says, "Leviticus bad." Really the only reason the Old Testament is still part of the Bible is so we can see how and why Jesus came.


But anyway, my heart goes out to those who were gassed and their families. I'm still in shock over this...

Sweetie, when was the last time we at the Christian Right tried to kill someone we didn't like? Wasn't the last clinic bombing in the nineties? Do you really believe that reactionaries and Christian fundamentalists are out to get you? Are you so swayed by the BS and propaganda against the far-right that you really think we'd do this? If any religion is behind this, it's Islam, not Christianity.

They have that? I was referring to fur suits and the like but thanks for that disturbing image. I use disturbing loosely, I'm just extremely modest.

Yes. Muslims attacking "furies" in America is much too common of an occurrence. I mean, if fundamental Muslims wanted to attack someone or something in the United States, it would be individuals who like to dress up as animals.

With chlorine gas, I'm sure they were going intentionally for the people in that convention. Just like the sarin gas attack in a subway in Tokyo.

Where did I say kebabs did it? I said Islam is the religion, in its Shariah/fundamentalist form, that encourages violence against perceived vices (like women who don't wear their dress code), that is going to kill those who don't match their worldview. I never said this was done by a Muslim. I said that it was beyond retarded to somehow blame Christianity and/or the far-right.

One would presume, however, being in the Great Satan, and in possession of chlorine gas, they would find someone or something a little more important, or you know governmental, than a bunch of people in animal suits.

Frankly, I think this is an attack by someone who just doesn't like this group. Even though I am not very aware of this affair or this subgroup's dealings, there seems to be some sort of new "culture war" of sorts going on in America between some niche groups and their opponents. Or at least from the articles that I read regarding somethings related to this, it would seem so. Obviously I could be wrong.

I feel as though that world be worse. At least in this scenario we can make a guess at motives and where the next attack could be, and prepare for it. As opposed to having every convention being a potential target.

I mean, sure, the 'terrorist' part is not entirely true (If you put in the whole 'political gain' part of the definition), but it is still an act of violence against an innocent group of individuals.

What more reason do you need to not be, in any way, condoning this?
