A Man Of God Doing The Right Thing: Franklin Graham Blasts Buttigieg For Being Gay

[Harpy Eagle]

you do bring up a good point, just about every porn flick ever made for guys has woman one woman sex...for a reason

Try as we might, we can't fight nature...……......

I seem to recall reading something about the spirit being willing and the flesh being weak...

You read?

a lot. In the case of the Bible I have read it cover to cover 11 times.

I don't have a smart ass remark for this.....

How can you be a Leftie?

I am not a leftie, never have been never will be.

I am more fiscally conservative than 99% of the people on this forum that I have interacted with. How many lefties are pro-2nd amendment, pro smaller government, anti deficit spending, anti-abortion, pro free market, anti ObamaCare and view Obama as the 2nd worst POTUS ever

I have been labeled a "lefty" because of my dislike of Trump and my Libertarian views on social issues (except abortion which I am vehemently against).

We all know that heterosexual men are repulsed by gay guys...

While at the same time lesbians have a different effect.

you do bring up a good point, just about every porn flick ever made for guys has woman one woman sex...for a reason

Try as we might, we can't fight nature...……......

you used the word 'normal' though as if it's not, then use the word 'nature' when it comes to your voyeurism... but fail to recognize that homosexuality is found in 'nature'

 

[caddo kid]

He doesn't blast him for being gay, he blasts him for defying God and glorifying sin.

It's one thing to *be gay*, we're all sinners.
It's another thing to tell Christians that it isn't a sin.

Or to tell them that you're a better Christian, because you made up your own version of Christianity that says anything you want to do is fine.

i really enjoyed it when trump went to liberty university & recited his favorite part of the bible: two corinthians...

My favorite book in the bible? Uhhhhh...Chapter 11!

Two Corinthians .............. what a fucking ass wipe

A man of God doing the right thing...

Look at that face; Trump, a 'man of God' smiling like there is no tomorrow, grabbing Heff's ass

trump isn't a man of God nor does he claim to be

you're 1/2 right

but he's claims to 'have done more for christians' than anybody else.... ever. & of course, sarah honey boo boo - who's daddy is a 'preacher' has even said that god sent donny here to be prez.

I'm not convinced Trump isn't president by Providence for some unknown reason. Most likely because of His policy towards israel.

His statements about doing more for Christianity is absurd and false.

Who cares what Mike Huckabee says?

god wouldn't design such a creature because he's israel friendly to the detriment of everything & everybody else.

Let me be clear: if your response to "Homosexuality is a sin, and Mayor Pete doesn't get to redefine Christianity to dismiss that" is "Well, DONALD TRUMP FUCKED WOMEN, SO THERE!" then it's pretty clear you not only have no valid, rational argument, but also that you're the village idiot who should be pitied.

First of all I don't relate to the concept of sin. It is a fake concept invented by men to shame and control others.

Secondly , you have wholly avoided the point that I made to counter your false equivalency logical fallacy comparing Mayor Pete to an adulterer and groper .

And to say that Pete is single handedly redefining Christianity is just plain stupid. Christianity has been redefined many times over since it's inception, and many denominations accept homosexuality.

Of course many denominations accept sin. Scripture is very clear on that reality. Jesus told us about false prophets and false churches. Scripture warns us repeatedly about the false brethren and to stay clear of them. You seem to have this crazy notion that just because people accept sin that God also accepts it. Good luck.

The only scripture that I pay attention to is the Constitution of the United States of America. The rest is, well ….unfiltered BS. Save you preaching for the mentally defectives who believe that tripe.

Glad to know you respect the Constitution. How about that First Amendment? You respect that?
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

i'll also add article 6 to your reply...

The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the members of the several state legislatures, and all executive and judicial officers, both of the United States and of the several states, shall be bound by oath or affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States.

 

[caddo kid]

Graham's words from the article:

"Mayor Buttigieg says he's a gay Christian," Graham wrote. "As a Christian I believe the Bible which defines homosexuality as sin, something to be repentant of, not something to be flaunted, praised or politicized. The Bible says marriage is between a man & a woman - not two men, not two women."

Graham continued, "The core of the Christian faith is believing and following Jesus Christ, who God sent to be the Savior of the world - to save us from sin, to save us from hell, to save us from eternal damnation."

So, Graham doesn't believe homosexuality should be politicized then why in Hell is HE doing just that?
Also, why are Graham & the GOP politicizing Christianity & Jesus, as they have been doing since the 1980s?

Mr. Graham, if the core of the Christian faith is believing and following Jesus Christ then why do you support the 'military industrial complex' and a POTUS that has no use for taming the flow of conventional arms sales to the rest of the planet, continuing the slaughter of humanity?

Mr. Graham, you are a funny fucking fake Christian.

 

[playtime]

That is so idiotic on so many levels . Disciple of Satan ? Really?

Yes, Homosexuals are the disciples of Satan. It's not idiotic. It's the truth as written in the Bible. Have you read the Bible?

Answer me! Have you read the Bible?

Fuck no!!

Then you know nothing about Christianity!

neither do you.

 

[tyroneweaver]

Mocking and telling lies about people of God will lead you to the depths of hell to serve Satan.

What a joke yet let those without sin cast the first stone..

Yeah cause Jesus never pointed out to sinners fact that that's what they were.

Jesus spent more time chastising hypocrites than any other brand of fuckwit.

He never once criticized homosexuals.

He did call people who divorce and remarry adulterers, though.

You know, like Trump. And Kim Davis.

Telling the truth suddenly is criticism....oh my.......the wide path is over there.....carry on Mayor Pete ......is that what Jesus would say

The truth is that there is a beam in your eye while you point out the mote in your neighbor's.

butt the difference is the woman probably went and sinned no more when your boy is probably keeping it up

 

[playtime]

Yes I do. Why do you ask? Oh I bet I know. I'm somehow infringing on your right to religious freedom. Don't even go there.

Yes, I will go there. So many of you filthy jackals demand that Christians shut up and keep it at home or in our church. That isn't what the Constitution says. YOU are NOT to prohibit the free exercise (expression) of my religion. That's what it says. You don't believe that.

No one is trying to shut you people up. It is only with the rise of the political religious right that a bastardized view of religious freedom has emerged. It has come to mean that you get to impose your religious views on others. Being free to believe, worship, live and speak your mind whenever and wherever you wish is no longer enough. You might want to take a look at this:

Two meanings of religious freedom/liberty:

1. Freedom of belief, speech, practice.

2. Freedom to restrict services, hate, denigrate, or oppress others.


1. The historical meaning of religious freedom:

This term relates to the personal freedom:
•Of religious belief,
•Of religious speech,
•Of religious assembly with fellow believers,
•Of religious proselytizing and recruitment, and
•To change one's religion from one faith group to another -- or to decide to have no religious affiliation -- or vice-versa.

The individual believer has often been the target of oppression for thinking or speaking unorthodox thoughts, for assembling with and recruiting others, and for changing their religious affiliation. Typically, the aggressors have been large religious groups and governments. Freedom from such oppression is the meaning that we generally use on this web site to refer to any of the four terms: religious freedom, religious liberty, freedom of worship and freedom to worship.

2. A rapidly emerging new meaning of religious freedom: the freedom to discriminate and denigrate:

In recent years, religious freedom is taking on a new meaning: the freedom and liberty of a believer apply their religious beliefs in order to hate, oppress, deny service to, denigrate, discriminate against, and/or reduce the human rights of minorities.

Now, the direction of the oppression has reversed.

It is now the believer who is the oppressor -- typically fundamentalist and evangelical Christians and other religious conservatives. Others -- typically some women, as well as sexual, and other minorities -- are the targets. This new meaning is becoming increasingly common. It appears that this change is begin driven by a number of factors:

•The increasing public acceptance of women's use of birth control/contraceptives. This is a practice regarded as a personal decision by most faith groups, but is actively opposed by the Roman Catholic and a few other conservative faith groups.
•The increasing public acceptance of equal rights for sexual minorities including Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, Transgender persons and transsexuals -- the LGBT community (); and
•The increasing percentage of NOTAs in North America. These are individuals who are NOT Affiliated with an organized faith group. Some identify themselves as Agnostics, Atheists secularists, Humanists, free thinkers, etc. Others say that they are spiritual, but not religious.

One interesting feature of this "religious freedom to discriminate" is that it generally has people treating others as they would not wish to be treated themselves. It seems to be little noticed among those who practice or advocate "religious freedom to discriminate" that this way of treating people is a direct contradiction to the Golden Rule, which Jesus required all his followers to practice. See Matthew 7:12, Luke 6:31, and the Gospel of Thomas, 6.

There is no Gospel of Thomas in the Bible.

Just because it's not in the KJV of the Bible, doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. When the KJV Bible was created, many books were either dropped, or they were heavily edited.

However, the Gospel of Thomas didn't have either of them happen to it, because it wasn't discovered until 1945.

Gospel of Thomas - Wikipedia

The Gospel of Thomas (also known as the Coptic Gospel of Thomas) is a non-canonical sayings gospel. It was discovered near Nag Hammadi, Egypt, in December 1945 among a group of books known as the Nag Hammadi library. Scholars speculate that the works were buried in response to a letter from Bishop Athanasius declaring a strict canon of Christian scripture.[1][2]

The Coptic-language text, the second of seven contained in what modern-day scholars have designated as Codex II, is composed of 114 sayings attributed to Jesus.[3] Almost half of these sayings resemble those found in the Canonical Gospels, while it is speculated that the other sayings were added from Gnostic tradition.[4] Its place of origin may have been Syria, where Thomasine traditions were strong.[5]

Wikipedia is for lazy amateurs. No reputable scholars will use it because it's not a secure site and can be edited by anyone. There are qualifications before a document is considered Scripture. You and other unbelievers do not qualify to tell Christians what is what isn't Scripture.

What a blessing this man is. He knows gays, especially Buttigieg, are disciples of Satan.

You think G-d does imperfect things?

Franklin would be going to hell if there were one.

[TheProgressivePatriot]

That is not entirely true. As a child, I was told that I was Catholic. I was put through all of the rituals and bullshit. The "religious training" and all of that. I was subjected to the guilt and fear of not believing. "Worship this God or burn in hell ". Then one day, in my early 20"s I realized that being Catholic is not genetic, or a congenital defect. It is a choice, and a not very good one . It was an awakening. A new found freedom to choose how I want to live and not be told how to live my the clerics who seek to control other by fear and superstition . I have been happy and free since- 50 years and counting- and know that you don't need religious doctrine or a belief in God to lead a moral and good life without inflicting pain on others, as you surly with to do. .

That's when you let Satan take over your once soul and you chose to become a homosexual. You must repent and let God back into your heart and defeat Satan. It's the only way to prevent from burning in hell for eternity.

More pathetic stupidity! Do you really believe that only " homosexuals" advocate for gay rights and equality? Do you live under a rock?

Not stupidity but fact! You don't know any facts because you haven't read the Bible like most if not all Homosexuals.

So the bible says only homosexuals support gay rights? LOL

The Bible makes it clear that Christians know homosexuality is wrong. Christians shouldn't judge or condemn them that is God's job.

And that has what, exactly, to do with my question? Are you as idiotic as MAGA boy who has decided what my sexuality is based on my politics? Poor little boy! You loose!

Hey Dick brain...

You Tards always try to twist the truth to fit your needs...

Look up Normal in the dictionary Dumb Ass...

It means conforming to a standard; usual, typical, or expected.

Homosexuality in the animal kingdom is a rarity.

It’s so easy to make Fools of you Dumb Ass Tards….

Agree, there should be no religious test to hold office in this nation, but there is. The left is always labeling conservative Christians as "extreme".
