Leftist logic: Show zero respect for everyone else but expect ABSOLUTE SUPPORT AND AGREEANCE to their favorite lifestyle/Atheism/Anti children/Anti traditional values or they throw a fit. 👍
Disrespecting art and religion seems a little different than telling 2 people they can’t get married.
Like one is potentially offensive on an emotional level, the other is trying to tell people how to live their lives. You don’t have to agree if you’d like to stay out of the conversation….. so, they seem kinda different? Don’t they?
Nobody is telling you not to enjoy your religion just because people make fun of it.
The government tells people how to live their lives all the time. Religion is a Western concept. Religion is not found in the Qur'an or the Greek Bible. Keep your deviant behavior to yourself.
Ok so I can make fun of them too then ? Because I don't care if two dudes or chicks get married either, but now you're saying it's ok for me to laugh at that yes ?
I'm pretty neutral on most things. Grew up in a blue state been (and enjoyed) drag shows, exposed to all this shit before it was 'popular' and kicked it and hung out with my gay peeps. (I'm straight) I was around it all the time.
It was never a big deal. The fact of the matter is, you respect ppl and treat ppl the way they want to be treated.
I'm also agnostic. But if you're religious of which ever kind, I'm going to be respectful. It doesn't matter. It's not always about YOU all the time.
And that's what this 'movement' disregards openly. "You're Christian!? WELL FIGGIDY FUUUUUCK YOU!!!! I'M THIS!"
When no one even asked. Or even cares for that matter.
I'm constantly seeing this from this movement:
Christians: A ok to disrespect, always all the time 💯
Lgbt..: ALWAYS respect us no matter what under EVERY CIRCUMSTANCE.
Being evil to either side is wrong, that's common sense. But here, yall pick and choose who deserves respect and who doesn't. That's what ppl have an issue with. That's what I have an issue with.
The lgbt groups seem to have lost their sense of humour a bit, I think it’s mostly because they’re feeling attacked? But I’m not sure.
I think the problem is that it’s becoming harder to tell what’s “good humour” vs an attack. The lines have become very blurry, and there are legitimate attacks happening on their existence (the overturn of roe v Wade has opened the door for many legal challenges to the gay community)
Soooooo……. A significant portion of the populace is still very “anti-gay” to the point of legitimate threat….. so yeah, they’re more sensitive than they used to be. The more real the threat is, the harder it is to decipher the jokes.
I don’t have an answer, but I’m steering clear of many gay jokes that used to be “well meaning” just because I understand why they might think it’s not funny anymore.
It feels like telling “dead baby” jokes to someone that’s had a miscarriage. Dark humour is fine, but context matters.
…..also, christianity is not under any sort of threat at all, so that explains why it's always okay to make fun of christians. they ARE the threat lol
I don't think we're gunna fine middle ground here Mr. Kaboom in regards to the other guy.
You know what my point is so I'm just explaining it for everyone else. The point is it doesn't matter who you are or every lifestyle you have, you respect others and treat them the way you want to be treated.
They're argument is consistent with "You're allowed to pick on groups who fall into a right wing category because they don't agree with my favorite politics"
If you want respect, then be respectful to others regardless what you believe. That goes for both lgbt and Christians in this case. One doesn't get to have respect while you shit on the other.
However, orthodox tenets of the #Christian faith are being ostracized from mainstream western society. The West has become against some of the things that #Christianity is for.
@ArbiterXero@realcaseyrollins Against abortion, gay marriage, sex out side of marriage, blasphemy to God, I.e. mocking.
and all forms of Slavery. oh, drunkenness and recreational drug use.
Sooooooooo nobody is forcing you into a gay marriage? How is that one threatening Christianity and putting it at risk? Is my gay marriage somehow making you risk jail time, or preventing you from having a family?
Because limiting gay marriage does prevent some people from having families…. Can you see that difference?
Sex outside of marriage is a really heavy handed interpretation, as is alcoholic consumption, and quite frankly even gay marriage, quote scripture please for evidence.
Nobody in America seems to be actively promoting slavery, so I’m curious where that threat is coming from?
I started my life as a Christian boy, soooo I know someone making shit up when I see it.
Such a low effort comment, free speech is not at play here. No one is calling on the French to arrest anyone, not even the guy who got his beans over his frank.
Are you crying about other people who are crying about the last supper parody?
I'm glad you were not upset that I was upset that you were upset that others were upset about the last supper parody. There's hope for you yet, even if you don't understand freedom of speech.
