Social ***mozilla Firefox ceo forced to resign for personal views****

[Jukai]

But you are doing the exact same thing...are you not?

I am, but I am not acting hypocritically about it.

To summarize my opinion:
-it is the Mozilla's CEO's right to be able to donate to an organization that is against gay marriage
-it is the right of the gay community and their allies to not do business with the company

You believe that the Mozilla CEO should be able to do what he is doing, but the gay community should be ASHAMED for doing what they did. Your only argument is the fact that you find homosexuality disgusting and it physically repulses you, so you don't want them to be doing the same thing you are doing (marriage).

Do you see the flaw in your logic?

So, you want your religious views protected and legally enshrined but don't want others to have the same protections if they disagree with you. How is that not bigoted and intolerant?

No, I just want HARMLESS traditions upheld. wow, im such a radical

Again, they're not very traditional and what you call marriage is a recent construct. Maintaining that "traditional" construct is also not harmless. Maintaining that construct denies equal legal protections and equal financial benefits afforded to married couples from being extended to gay couples.

Dolphins have high intelligence. http://news.discovery.com/animals/dolphin-intelligence-explained.htm

Just because they can't speak doesn't mean you should ban my ability to marry one.

Are you saying marriages to deaf-mutes should be illegal too?

Marriage is solely about reproduction and family dynamics. I can't successfully reproduce with a dolphin or a deaf-mute (legally they're the same).

Well, to be fair, both the New and Old Testament condemn homosexuality. Of course glennrod picks and chooses which condemnations he agrees with.

Sure there are. According to the Bible, the community should publicly execute you without trial via stoning if you do yard work on a Saturday afternoon.

But I don't see many Christians jumping all over that. Seems odd that they choose the homosexuality language to hang their hat on but don't condemn Saturday yardwork.

While the Israelites were in the wilderness, a man was found gathering wood on Saturday. Those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses and Aaron and the whole assembly, and they kept him in custody, because it was not clear what should be done to him. Then the Lord said to Moses,

those Christians are about as legit as the marriages they support, and that pastor should have been slapped, as well as "defrocked". what a dumbass

Would you disagree with the notion that

one can be a good christian, yet be gay?

No doubt there are a lot of cafeteria christians. Personally I favor stoning those who do yard work early Saturday and wake me up.

in bold translates to: its their right to act like a bunch of bitch ass babies because someone supports traditional marriage. y'know there is some irony here, there is a word to describe people like them and it begins with "f" and it has nothing to do with their sexuality :icon_neut

and no I don't see a flaw in my logic, is it really suprising that putting ones (hmmmph) into another mans chocolate box is considered rank?, oh I forgot, its just the same as pussy, that's why a person comes out of one, and poo comes out of the other. :icon_neut

Who follows the old testament? Isn't that similar to the Torah?

 

[glennrod]

Would you disagree with the notion that

one can be a good christian, yet be gay?

now this is an interesting question, see I subscribe to the whole "god loves everybody" deal, it makes me feel better about some of the shit I have done in my life. someone could be gay and still demonstrate good Christian qualities so I guess the answer is a yes, although, those who try and campaign to flat out ignore the teachings about homosexuals are fucking stupid. those that acknowledge that what they are doing is against their own religion, yet ask the lord for forgiveness are no different than me I suppose

 

[ncordless]

Who follows the old testament?

Nobody, really. But lots of people, including Jews and Christians supposedly follow it, and Muslims revere at least parts of it as well.

Have you ever mowed your yard on a Saturday?

Are you aware that the Bible's punishment for doing so is the same as committing a homosexual act?

it will be interesting to see if muslims are forced out of their positions due to their horrific religious beliefs....oh wait, no it wont because leftists tend to go after the softer target, christians

Do you subscribe to biblical literalism, i.e. do you think that what is in the bible is completely factually accurate?

the old testament is gay

absolutely not

It's not tradition. We've proven beyond a doubt that it isn't tradition. You have no argument that it is tradition outside of "that wasn't how I grew up with marriage!" but even then, there was no federal law defining marriage between a man and a woman till the fucking 1990s!!!

At this point, if you use the word tradition, you are trolling.

And no, I don't think homosexual sex is considered "rank" nor do I think about it anywhere as near as you do, apparently. Maybe you should stop thinking about it and it won't bother you.

Unlike fighting for equal rights, this is some real acting "like a bunch of bitch ass babies". Care to guess why someone in the US might be more concerned about the influence of christians on policy and society?

Their beliefs are similarly horrific to Jews and Christians. If I don't go after Muslim CEOs of major companies, it is not because they are Muslim, but rather because they either don't exist or don't engage in public speech that way. When one does, I hope he gets thrown out of his job as well.

I'd gladly boycott a company because the new CEO donated to a campaign to force women to where burkhas, or any other stupid shit Muslims believe.

 

[UpaLoompa]

absolutely not

So you reject some portions of the bible. Why are you the final arbitrator on what parts should be rejected? How do you know that you're rejecting the correct parts and someone that thinks gays can marry is wrong?
