Religion and the LGBTQ community.

wait what

Nation of Islam I believe.

tbh I just thought of this

[Geneviev]

The Bible was used to justify racism, the Quran wasn't. Your point is?

True, however, ISIS uses the Quran to justify inhumane acts towards the Infidel. Such as beheadings.

ISIS does not represent Islam any more than the KKK represents Christianity.

Litterally Jesus saying Love Thy Neighbor as thy self?

Have you never heard of the Curse of Ham?

No I have. However, Rascism is in Violation of Jesus’s Command. Is it not?

You are aware that didn't start being used a justification for racism until the late middle ages at the earliest, yes? Even then it was just people who didn't want to feel bad about the slave trade making some shit up. It has no real basis.

So is homophobia.

Same with homophobia. It wasn't in the Bible until 1949 if I remember correctly.

Bullshit. You can go read the original Koine Greek stuff and it will still say the same thing. I'm sorry Geneviev but your positions on Christianity have no basis in reality.

[Des-Bal]

Let's be fair here: Nation of Islam isn't Islamic any more than Mormonism is Christian.

Yeah I get it, every other one true religion is a liar and pretender at the truth.

Where has Jesus ever said to Hate Gays? He hasn’t. He said to love the Sinner for You are a Sinner yourself, we all are.

It did not say the exact same thing.

Anyways, cool. My life has no basis in reality. It all fits, doesn't it?

It absolutely did and you've offered no proof otherwise. People can still learn and read Koine Greek, it's not hard for clergy to check these things.

I think you're using your experiences to trivialize other people's experiences of religion.

The only mentions I saw, the word could have been masturbation, rape, or fornication.

Well, I’d certainly hope You life is not based on being hateful towards Christians. But It’s okay! I Forgive you~ And you are beautiful just the way you are~

No, of course not. Other people are free to believe whatever they want. I only disagree.

But you're saying that Islam is more tolerant because your experiences with Christianity are bad, but you defend Islam in the face of experiences other people have had with it about LGBT rights. That's trivializing other people's experiences.

People are doing the same with Christianity. Defending your beliefs does not mean trivializing other people's experiences.

Hey, I'm not exactly a friend of Christianity either, but the criticisms you are making are rather... odd.

But when you're saying "Christianity is worse" in the face of being told time and time again that many Muslims support the death penalty for homosexuality, you can see how that looks, right?

Odd is the wrong word, but you are applying personal experience to a framework based on larger patterns and data. I can understand why you would not wish to be a Christian/why you would want to be a Muslim, but that is personal and not generally applicable to the world at large.

Christianity can be just as bad or worse.

sure, why not

[Halmund]

Let's be fair here: Nation of Islam isn't Islamic any more than Mormonism is Christian.

You might want to educate yourself before you make such a claim. Mormons are Christian.

Christianity can be just as bad or worse.

The percentage of Christians worldwide who support that kind of thing is much smaller than in Islam, as evidenced in polling and legal systems.
