Are you threaten by the bible or something? It's called "the good book" for a reason.
You cannot compare a person's race to a sexual oreiatation. Because it's not the same thing. And why are you so defenive of the gay community schaeffershawn? Do you wanna confess something on this thread?...
Get over yourself! And I'm not a bible thumper. And by you saying that dumb shit. You've offended christian wrestlers such as Shawn Michaels, Sting, D-Von Dudley, and the late great Eddie Guerrero. And this thread subject is about Michael Hayes & Mark Henry, not me!
Schaeffershawn, I pray that one day that you see that being gay is just a fad. And that religon is REAL. And it's not to be taken lightly.
Holy fuck dude, I'm a christian and i hate people like you. Sexual orientation is NOT a choice. Why the fuck would anyone chose to do something that a lot of people hate? It's science, it's psychology, people who are gay have different brain activity. It's not a choice.
second, the bible is a collection of books (who decided which books?), that started out orally and were written down by scribes (who added their own stories), and was rewritten and retranslated (between languages that aren't the most comparable, for example, there is one hebrew word for land, earth, and country, so did God flood the whole world? Or the land?), and not only has it been passed down for thousands of years (surely to be some changes) but passed through the hands of people with political aspirations (Martin Luther helped solve that but how much was changed?).
In other words, the bible is a guide, mostly filled with good messages. However, to think it's complete fact and hasn't been manipulated is naive. Not only THAT but please, explain where in the bible it says that being gay is wrong? When Peter (I think it was) wrote a letter to the local politicians at the time voicing his displeasure (where the scribe got his information), he wasn't saying "a man loving a man" is wrong. Back then, it was extremely common to be bisexual, guys would fool around with guys all the time. Peter was saying it was wrong to do so when you're married and when you don't love the other person. That's just one example. Most stories about jesus weren't written down for hundreds of years after his death.
I mean, you COULD just stick your head in the sand like a fuckin ostrich and be an idiot and alienate yourself from everyone else with a brain, or you could use a mix of theology and history to interpret what probably really happened and not be such a close minded idiot. God gave you a brain, use it.
Your arrogance and ignorance shows not even just in what you said about homosexuals, also this line "You've offended christian wrestlers such as Shawn Michaels, Sting, D-Von Dudley, and the late great Eddie Guerrero" because you're so arrogant and close minded and "ME ME ME" oriented that you think they all think the same way as you. It's that egocentric mindset that is holding you back. How the fuck do you know what Eddie would think if he were still alive? I'm a Christian and I am more offended by you making an ass of all christians through your stupidity than by either post that was directed at you or the term "bible thumper".
One final thing, how is being gay a "fad"? You realize people were more openly gay in shakespeares time right? And in jesus' day? It's not something new. I mean, conservative christians will tell you it is and that it didn't exist in the good ol 1950s, but it did. I am honestly boggeled right now that a human being in 2011 that can operate a computer thinks the way you do. I don't live in San Fran or some place like that either. I like in Springfield, Missouri which is the self-proclaimed "belt buckle of the bible belt", so I hear some stupid shit, but wow....you're just really REALLY ignorant.
Before you say "do you wanna confess something..." in a similarly condescending manor that you did with schaeffershawn, no I'm not gay. I have a girlfriend. I do have several gay friends. In almost all cases, members of their family have disowned them and they struggled with depression. Some attempted suicide. I guess that's what God would want right? You seem to be defend the christian extremist side quite a bit. Is there something YOU want to tell us? Do you attend church at the westboro baptist church?
