Next person to say something like this in/about this thread gets a warning. No joke.

If it ever gets out of hand, believe it or not, we mods are competent enough to notice.

I cannot say I'm very fond of the morals that christianity and the church are spreading...

Um, what's wrong with our morals? I'm just asking, don't kill me...

Among other things, I find their stance on homosexuality pretty questionable, especially how it is considered a mental illness that needs to be purged. The whole thing is pretty stupid and makes me question if those guys even know the central virtues of their own religion. Christianity is about the New Testament and following the example of Jesus Christ, a guy who was all about forgiving sins and looking at ones own faults instead of those of others. This brings the pursuit of gays into dogma territory and would make Jesus feel pretty terrible if he knew. I don't know if the Vatican still does stuff like that. I haven't bothered keeping up with their recent activities because I stopped caring some time ago.

Also, I don't have anything against christians in general (i.e. the guys who just peacefully go or don't go to church). My whole family is christian. I'm just irked by the religious extremists. That means you can relax as I won't kill you. I never planned to, so the implication is a bit rude, but whatever.

I don't think I've ever heard anyone refer to homosexuality as a mental illness...

It was legally defined as one until the 70's if I recall correctly.

The Bible never said that, but this is most likely a quote from the Pope or puritans.
