EDIT TO ADD THIS DISCLAIMER/NOTICE: THIS THREAD IS ABOUT TERRIBLE THINGS DONE TO PEOPLE IN THE NAME OF GOD/RELIGIONS. THIS THREAD IS NOT FOR DISCUSSING THE GOOD DONE BY SOME RELIGIOUS PEOPLE. START ANOTHER THREAD FOR THAT PLEASE. DO NOT CONTINUE VIEWING THIS THREAD IF THE TRUTH OF BAD THINGS HAPPENING IN THE NAME OF GOD/RELIGION OFFENDS YOU..There have been and are people posting here against gay folks. They follow this thinking. http://lovegodsway.org/GayBands quote:
Suffering is one very long moment. We cannot divide it by seasons. We can only record its moods, and chronicle their return. With us time itself does not progress. It revolves. It seems to circle round one centre of pain. Oscar Wilde (reformed homosexual) One of the most dangerous ways Homosexuality invades family life is through popular music. Parents, please keep careful watch over your children’s listening habits. Especially in this age of Internet mp3 piracy. There are multiple levels of Gay Music. Some bands are what we like to call Gateway Bands. They lure children in with Pop Grooves and Salacious Melodies leaving them wanting more. They’ll move on to more dangerous bands and the next thing you know you’ve got a homosexual for a child. We’ve taken the time to highlight the bands that are particularly Gay. Please take the time and dissect your child’s CD / iTunes catalog. If you find 3 or more of these bands in their collection it is time to take action. We Strongly recommend that you burn the CDs. Make sure your child is watching. Make sure they can feel the heat. It is crucial that the image remains emblazoned in their young minds. They need to know that if they continue to listen to these bands they may Burn eternally as well. Bands to watch out for Lady Gaga (tricks girls into lesbianism) Ween (Rainbow) Lil'Wayne P!nK (gay family) The Black Keys Coldplay SlipKnot (make-up) RadioHead Michael Jackson Justin Bieber (gay bullying) Boredoms School of Seven Bells (gay twins) Jason Mraz Jonas Brothers Rilo Kiley Death Cab for Cutie Sarah McLachlan George Strait Cold War Kids Toby Keith (cowboy) P-Diddy Black People Vampire Weekend King Crimson Kate Bush (kissed a girl) Bob Dylan Fleet Foxes Sigur Ros (nudists) Twisted Sister The Spores (endorse suicide) Scissor Sisters Turbonegro Rufus Wainwright Merzbau Ravi Shankar The Butchies (lizbians) Wilco Bjork (mb) Tech N9ne Ghostface Killah Bobby Conn Morton Subotnik Cole Porter The String Cheese Incident Eagles of Death Metal Polyphonic Spree The Faint Interpol Twisted Sister (jj) Tegan and Sara Erasure The Grateful Dead (drugs too) Le Tigre Marilyn Manson (dark gay) The Gossip The Magnetic Fields The Doors Phish Queen The Strokes Morrissey(?questionable?) Metallica Judas Priest The Village People The Secret Handshake The Rolling Stones David Bowie Frankie Goes to Hollywood Man or Astroman Richard Cheese Jay-Z Depeche Mode Kansas Ani DiFranco Fischerspooner John Mayer George Michael (texan) Angel Eyes The Indigo Girls Velvet Underground Madonna Elton John Barry Manilow Indigo Girls Melissa Etheridge Eminmen Nirvana Boy George Jon Brion The Killers Lou Reed Lil' Wayne Motorhead Jill Sobule Wilson Phillips DMX Wesley Willis Lisa Loeb Ted Nugent (loincloth) Dogstar Thirty Seconds to Mars Lil' Kim kd lang Frank Sinatra Hinder Nickleback Justus Kohncke Bob Mould Clay Aiken Arcade Fire Bright Eyes Corinne Bailey Rae Audioslave Red Hot Chili Peppers Panic at the Disco The Cure (makeup) Spin Doctors The Deers Lindsey Lohan The Smiths Beck Tom Waits The Cramps Cannibal Corpse Britney Spears(kissed Madonna) Perfect Sin The Queers NoFx(gay punk) Soup Dragons Elton John(really gay) In Our effort to keep this list up to date we'd appreciate your help. If you know of a band that is Gay or propogating a Gay message please email us so we can update. Donnie is handling this his email is: DonnieDavies@gmail.com The response is overwhelming. You guys know of a lot more Gay Bands than I do. I can't keep up. Hopefully soon we'll have it so you can add them by yourself. ©2007 Love God's Way Ministries. All Rights Reserved.

mirage29 {{{hugs}}} I know it is negative thinking but seeing so much bigotry, even here in a spiritual/new age/astrology site; and up to bloody hatred from other countries and the 3 main religions; The indoctrinating innocent children in hate and bigotry before they have a chance to know otherwise....... I am rapidly losing the idea that the human race will not go extinct one way or another. The power shift is not in favor of love betwixt all humankind. It looks very bad on planet Earth at this time. The fragile balance is out of whack; because the religious bigots out there and haters have political power and the will and desire to kill for it; Peaceful folks who just want to live and let live don't really have a chance.

Some of those choices...personally, I think they're a bit brave to list Ted Nugent as a "gay band." And while I don't think Toby Keith would care (unless you heckle him), I know plenty of his fans, and frankly I'd more scared to tick them off than I would Slayer fans! (His fan base are mostly rednecks, guns and military experience common among them, but they tend to be the type with little patience for holier than thou Bible thumpers...IOW, they tend to be rednecks I get along well with.)Oh! And Cannibal Corpse! HAHAHAHAHA! They have songs like Necropedophile, anything to be as offensive as possible, seriously that band will LOVE being on the list and burning their CDs in front of kids drawn to it will make them even bigger fans just because it's such epic trolling. If parents weren't offended then the kids would probably burn the CDs themselves! I can't help but notice that Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus is missing from the list despite being a big gay supporter (and also, I believe being silly, pretends to kiss other females). That reminds me of back when Hannah was bigger than Jesus, and I mean seriously, her tickets were so popular that it wasn't unknown for ORGANIZED CRIME to muscle in on 'em, and then Miley at the height of this popularity made a public statement that God loves gays, no loving father could hate someone for being gay, and supported full equality under the law, and the big anti-gay groups instantly called for a boycott against Hannah Montana...and had to give it up because their own daughters were defying them, going to friend's houses to watch if they had to, and hating the fanatic bigots raising them more than Hannah/Miley, and they gave it up...and then they silently erased all evidence that they'd called for a boycott which is too bad as even they admitting they'd lost to Hannah was hilarious to me.

Oh, btw, Exodus International, an "ex ex-gay" has apologized for running that horrid organization (at its worse it even helped to sponsor "kill the gays" bills in Africa, supported by Chick Fil A): http://exodusinternational.org/2013/06/i-am-sorry/ Plenty of other Christians are abandoning their bigotry as well, though this one at a gay pride parade made my jaw drop and feel really good:

Hey, I had some wonderful Bible quotes... If I was an emotional Christian or suffered from a lack of Faith, I probably would be hurt or angry at the title of this ( and other ) threads.
I so agree there is rabid bigotry and it is soul suffocating and spiritually trying.. What I`m saying is there is much emphasis on the bigot rather than the humanity of goodness . There are wonderful Christian souls on this planet. They are here to serve their God and humanity. They are gentle, kind and wise ones who is often viewed as weak. Those who follow Christ would never condemn, belittle or bully. Any other type follows religion not the Christian Way. Seperate them out and recognize their goodness. Let us celebrate them and the gifts they share with the world. ------------------ Christian, Jew, Muslim, Shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the Mystery, unique and not to be judged.

only the guilty of hatred towards all who do not believe as they do; would feel threatened or angry at my post/threads. I am not talking about the kind, caring non bogoted folks; I am talking about the abusive rabid ones, who go out of their way to hurt others. quote: Originally posted by juniperb: [B] I so agree there is rabid bigotry and it is soul suffocating and spiritually trying..
THAT IS WHAT I MUST SPEAK OUT ON! quote: Originally posted by juniperb: What I`m saying is there is much emphasis on the bigot rather than the humanity of goodness .
If you did not notice; I have posted nice things about god and believers and yes, even nice bible quotes I like. In my real life I have and still do when physically able; I HELP OUT with helping the good folks who label themselves Christians; to help others out. I do not understand why you and others ignore my positive posts about non rabid bigoted Chreistians...... And my happy threads about god. quote: Originally posted by juniperb:

Celebrate the ones who show love for all humanity? Geeeeez......... I do I do and I still do! But folks here seem to ignore my celebrating the caring kind non bigoted ones and ignore my threads on god. :sad: I show truth and people go off on me. I cannot keep silent about the cruelty, hatred, and condemnation that SOME people feel is A-OK to do perazzze jayysuuus!!!!!!!!!! continued next post............IP: Logged |

READ VERY CAREWFULLY PLEASE. I do NOT have a problem with all who call themselves Christian; even though I do not agree with them. My best example was my beloved mother-in-law/ex mother-in-law. She NEVER PREACHED; and only showed love and kindness and tolerance for all. Humble, caring, forgiving, understanding, and such a sweet soul. She lived by example without preaching. A truly extraordinary woman. She is greatly greatly terribly missed. PS. Her maiden name was "Christ". I am not the monster the offended Christians seem to want to paint me out as. I love many bible quotes and related ones. My longest time frirend is an Orthodox Christian yet we have been close for over 40 years to date. Two of my grandmothers were Christian and I loved them both and they were not bigots. I have had many Christian friends, most have long since fied; but I still have living ones. My family doctor has a 12 foot high portrait of Jesus right out in front of his private practice office. He is EXTREMELY Christian but is never unkind and after the medical stuff is taken care of whenever he has time; like my being his lasy patient of the day; we have some fabulous long conversations! So I wish folks would frraking pay attention, because whilst I feel I must not stay silent about the cruelty and hatred from the rabid ones; I do not hate the caring ones at all. In fact I do not hate anyone... disgust, sadness, and pity at cruel actions and the people who believe that is OK; that is not me showing hatred.

Lexx, I was speaking rather general. I know you give credit where credit is due. We have had a terrible experience here in DD and I was simply trying to accentuate the positive to balance the negative. The rabids and kind souls. If we can keep a balance here, we can all post comfortably and share. That was my thinking at the time of my post. Rabid christianity survives and thrives and it gets great notice because it is so in our faces. Question is, what can we do as a community to change it around? I have pondered this hard and long and all I know is it takes many and a great effort. I sincerely believe humanity can and will reverse it`s self and become what an Aquarian Age represents. I am so sorry you fell ill. I know we never bonded tightly but know I never ever said what`s being passed around. ------------------ Christian, Jew, Muslim, Shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the Mystery, unique and not to be judged.

I think we should always take a stand for what we believe to be right/true, but sometimes the cost is a dangerous price... A very wise man whom I know you have much admiration for Lex, said: quote: To fight the Empire is to be infected by its derangement ... Whoever defeats the Empire becomes the Empire; it proliferates like a virus ... thereby it becomes its enemies.
I often feel like my own irreligious zeal if left unchecked, leaves me in a no better state of mind than those whom I see as religious fundies...

Any over zealous beliefs or actions leads to becomming it`s enemy. As an aside, I believe if I am right, theres nothing to fight over Seriously, we can`t become emotionally involved with an idea or belief to the level it rules our lives. I am an advocate for prevention of animal abuse and if I let it, I will let it take over my life. All we can do is offer wisdom, facts, beliefs; support them and let them talk for us. ------------------ Christian, Jew, Muslim, Shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the Mystery, unique and not to be judged.

When I and others quoted that and many other obscene and or violent verses, when we were children, We got whipped for talking dirty and our mouths washed out with soap, for saying that was in the bible. Oh and punished for questioning the so called good book. Damn religious child abusers. We were all very afraid to talk back and just took the abuse no matter how bloody because the bible tells parents to kill children who talk back. Scary scary childhoods. And sadder because some had it far worse. :'( IP: Logged |
