Do you feel better about yourself now? You've 'won' against every single other individual in this thread.

Now then; please go away, troll.

"Where was the hatred and intolerance? Did anyone see hatred or intolerance anywhere in this blog post or comment section?"

That is what I addressed. I have no argument and made no argument with the dictionary's definition.

BTW- You never answered my question. Why is that?

I don't say anything, I copied the definition from websters dictionary. I responded to you calling the author a bigot. You can submit your objections to Webster's obviously hasty and ill-conceived definition here: http://www.merriam-webster.com/contact/definition…

I'm sure they'd love to talk about logical fallacies, etc. I'm going to go ahead and read the funny articles here. Good luck!

But I would like to address your definition of bigot.
You say that hatred & intolerance are necessary in order for their to be bigotry.
That is not actually true.
First the concept of "intolerance"…We only "tolerate" things we don't like, so to ask for someone's "tolerance" is disingenuous, but this is not relevant to your definition.
Intolerance (and Tolerance) is a Noun
Intolerantly is an Adjective describing a Noun.
You have substituted the Adjective for the Noun creating =LOGICAL FALLACY. 0 points
As for Hatred-
White Men who owned Black Slaves in general did not hate them. Some were mistreated, no doubt. Some were probably hated, as that is human nature, but so is liking and loving human nature so I don't believe that all White Slave Owners as a rule Hated their Black Slaves.
But I do think, and I think you will agree, that ALL White Slave Owners Were Bigots.

What do you think?

And again, you are using the term "love" to describe the love Jesus Christ has for us and the love we should have for each other. This is not necessarily the same use of "love" to describe what two lovers have for each other. The two uses obviously aren't mutually exclusive, but they also are not exactly the same thing.

I still don't know what I believe about homosexuality in and of itself. All I know is that:

A) No Christian has ever been able to convince me that it's a sin, and
B) No homosexual has ever been able to convince me that it's not.

So, the only thing I have to go on is what's in the Bible, and that is that living a homosexual life is wrong. I haven't studied exactly how it says it and why, and that is what i've been doing…slowly… over the past few years. It is a very interesting subject to me.

Please remember to read the fine print:
'Leave your sensitivity at the door'

Also:
bigot – : a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance

Where was the hatred and intolerance? Did anyone see hatred or intolerance anywhere in this blog post or comment section?

SETTLE DOWN. It's a blog about comedey characters.

He is trying to use the fact that Christians don't take into account the "sell all your possessions" as often or extremely as they should as a way of supporting the idea that homosexuality is not wrong. But in my opinion he actually strengthens the case of homosexuality being wrong. (I won't go into why here, but I can if needed).

Another example of an alluring but false argument: http://johnshore.com/2010/10/01/how-is-being-gay-…

He's confusing love with romance. He says Jesus instructs us to love, and that if we say homosexuals should resist their gay temptations we are saying they can't experience love. Yet, Jesus never had physical romance with another human being, but he most assuredly experienced the deepest possible love.

I respect what this guy is doing and I'm not saying all his stuff is bad, but you should always be wary of everything you read, because a lot of times it's shaped into a very alluring package that is meant to confuse you.

P.S. just because homosexuality occurs in other – even all other – animals doesn't mean it's the way we were originally created. Everything in creation was unfortunately and indelibly touched by sin.

My statement was coming from what I believe in my faith, which is something that I would never force on anyone else and something I'm entitled to believe if I want to. As a Christian, I don't believe homosexuality is the way God designed it. Does God care ultimately about who you have sex with? In my opinion, no. That's not even the point of it and I think it's a deeper matter pertaining to the way we were originally created. Homosexuality is an unnatural thing that spawned out of sin. It doesn't mean homosexuals don't have true genuine feelings just like straight couples, it just means that's not the way it was originally meant to be. Do gay people choose to be gay? No. Do I have a definite answer to the problem of homosexuality? No.

If I had written this post more recently, I would have phrased that sentence differently and/or not even included it in this post. It's confusing without further explanation I think, and irrelevant to my original point in the post.
