    Then stop printing it and citing chapter and verse. Of course it "counts".

    it says they should be burned to death.

    as bud points out, it says these things in the old testament. JC wouldnt burn fags, probably. JC is cooler and is a nicer fellow. but the bible aint just the new testament.

    So would you argue for the punishments that the Bible describes for any of the other sins mentioned in the Bible? Would you say we should have all of those Old Testement punishments in our society today? Not just for homosexuality, but everything?

    the bible is an evil book of lies and should disrespected every moment of every day.

    so i guess no, i wouldnt argue in favor of bible punishments.

    that said, there is part of me that believes their vomit inducing behavior is covered by free speech. but the fine lines of what causes harm and is considered indecent to be considered, i go back and forth
    -----------------------------------------------

    I don't. I believe the US government OWES these fallen GIs, and their families (Congressional Order!!) a proper, and memorial burial. If someone wants to protest, they can protest anywhere that does not affect these services.

    I would provide my own detail to exercise MY free speech should some ingrates insist on desecrating MY child/loved one's memorial service.
