Why does BK participate in gay topic threads?

Case in point...

You hate nuns too, and I'm not a nun. So it's hating religious people, rah.

I don't hate all Germans, I just hate Nazis.
BK: Yeah, well Hitler and Himmler were both Nazis. That's two Germans you hate, therefore you hate all Germans.

Not accepting the presence different opinions is worse then having a very strange opinion.
Democracy ends where your attitude becomes common.

First they came for the posters who do nothing but spout ignorant hateful crap, and I said nothing...

Incidentally, what "strange" opinions do you think that Ben is reviled for?

I don't hate all nuns, just some. I actually liked a few nuns that I had for teachers.
I don't hate all religious people. Just hypocritical asses like you.

And yes, hate may be too strong. I guess I could use despise.

In context, "they" sounds like it refers to "religious people," and the second sentence is clearly meant to be sarcastic. Which part of this lets us know you refer only, or primarily, to Plomp/BK?

Do you really want to be this pedantic ?

I was reacting to his post.

Loin:

I'd assume total depravity of mankind.

How often do you bring that up relative to the frequency that you, e.g., mock dead people?

Apparently

Hating gay people = bad
Hating religious people = good.

It's a wrong comparison. One's religion is a choice, ones sexual orientation is not a choice.
Hating people b/c of their opinion is a valid reason, imho.
Hating people for who they are is plain evil and wrong.

For my part, BK, it's not your abhorrent opinions that bother me so much as it is the way in which you abuse logic and reason to arrive at and argue for said opinions.

Pretty often actually. Everyone here is either a devotee of Marx or Rousseau.

Link to a post where you discuss the total depravity of mankind - see if you can accomplish this before I manage to link to a post where you abuse the memory of a dead person. Timer starts... now!

Hating people for who they are is plain evil and wrong.

The comparison is legit, because everyone is saying it.

Hating religious people = good.
Hating gay people = bad.

You just defended the position yourself by saying it's ok to hate religious people because that's a choice that they make and not, presumably, "a fibre of their being". I should think that most religionistas would disagree.

Hating gay people is wrong. Hating the sin that they commit? Ok.
Hating religious people is wrong. Hating the sin that they commit? Ok.

That's what I expect a fellow Christian to say.

I win!!!

You can still finish second if you can post a link within the next hour.

Considering I didn't see this, it took 2 minutes to find a post that had a reference to the total depravity of mankind. You lose, loin.

All too predictable. Try linking to a post about sin that isn't in a "Ben Hates Gays" thread. You can consider this moving the goalposts if you like, but I asked for a post where you discuss the "total depravity of mankind," not the "total depravity of homosexuals."

Acceptable alternatives: a post where you discuss how Muslims on average are no worse than Christians on average, a post where you admit that Obama is a Christian and an American citizen, or a post where you apologize for posting something false.
