PERSECUTION! PERSECUTION!
Fraser: "It is an insult to Christians in genuine persecution."
Yes! To say that Christians in England, or the US are persecuted is nonsense. Let those who think so go live in certain countries in the Middle East, such as Iran or Pakistan, for a while, and they'd know what it is to fear for their lives in the practice of their Christian faith. I'm thoroughly sick and tired of the whining. Good for Giles.
The Roman Catholic hierarchy tried to pull the same persecution stunt over rules that require health insurance companies to provide coverage for contraceptives for their employees. You'd think the bishops themselves were being forced to hand out condoms and birth control pills.
What Lord Carey, the former Archbishop of Canterbury, in England and the RC hierarchy here in the US want is for everyone in the respective countries to live according to their rules.

No one wails as loud as a bully...
ReplyDeleteIndeed. As a friend who is a priest in the Church of England said, "It is time Carey learnt to ‘shut up!’"
DeleteHe likes to dance on the graves of others (the man is a cowardly mess).
DeleteLord Carey may want to reconsider speaking out so often and rather confine himself to doing good works.
DeleteRuss, the Rev's statement so ridiculous as to be laughable, but I understand if not all LGBT persons will find his comments funny. All I'll say is that ya'll have a lot to account for, including climate change, which I'm guessing the Rev probably doesn't believe is happening.
ReplyDeleteI'm mystified by the obsession of certain religious folk with gay sex. What would Dr Freud say?
On that note, I've always thought it highly revealing that the standard objection to gay rights of any kind is: "Stop trying to shove it down our throats!"
ReplyDeleteLOL. Indeed.
