And once again religion gets shoved into a topic that had nothing to do with religion whatsoever. What if these parents were *gasp* atheists and not "most likely Christian"? I honestly feel embarrassed when I read some peoples' posts on this site; which is precisely the reason I don't post here often.

There's a 57% chance that they're christians, and a 4% chance that they're atheists.

Right... and what does this have to do with religion? They didn't do this to their children because of their religion, so why bring religion into this topic?

They most likely DID do it because of their religion, Christianity, which sees homosexuality as disgusting and wrong.

Indeed, the Bible and Jesus said to burn off childrens genitals if they caught them fucking other children i just dont remember where tho. Oh yeah, that's right - Christianity is against violence and torture overall, especially against little children. But let's focus on parts I don't like and over exaggerate them as blow them out of propotion. Oh and the parents had to be absolutely christian, because, you know, we're just that fucked up xD. And as we all know, judisam, islam and Hinduism have all absolutely nothing against homosexuality at all. Just this fucked up white man' christianity that says hate the sinner, not the sin, and as we all know there's nothing more to person than his sexuality, and since Jesus tought never to forgive a sin no matter how small and insignificant, that all translates to = Christians burn off their childrens genitals if they caught them in ''homosexual'' acts(because,you know, children by age of 7 have their sexuality all figured out).

Perfect logic, there's no arguing about it

Jesus and the bible is strongly agaisnt homosexuality. 
"Christianity is agaisnst violence and torture overall"? Have you read it? What about stoning your children/wife/neighbors etc. Or what about jesus' instructions on how to beat your slaves? What about the thousands of people God killed in the bible? What about God destroying everything and everyone apart from a family and a few animals? 
And judaism and islam are just as bad if not worse, so I agree with you there.

My original point was that there is a high probability that they did it because of the idealogies of their religion, which is most likely christianity, which sees homosexuality as disgusting and wrong, so yes, there is a huge connection. 

The stuff I put in bold don't really relate to anything I said, but actually relates to the stupidity of the parents and what christianity teaches, so thanks.

After reading this, i realized u don't know shit about christianity. Sooo....where to start.

1.Jesus Christ WAS NEVER EVER AGAINST ANY GROUP OF PEOPLE. HIS TEACHINGS ARE A FOUNDING STONE OF CHRISTIANITY, AND NOT ONCE DID HE SPEAK AGAINST ANY GROUP OF PEOPLE AT ALL! Honestly, my 7 year old sister has more knowledge of christianity 

2.Stoning children and wifes??? ARE FUCKING LISTENING TO YOURSELF ??? I seriously had a MUCH HIGHER opinion of u before this post.

"Let thee who is without sin cast the first stone" <--- Sounds familiar to you? Probably not. You dont know the founding teachings of chrtianity and spew bullshit about it.

3.Beating slaves? Jesus advised slaves to be obedient to their masters TO AVOID getting beaten. He was against slavery all together, as he considered all man to be equal and children of God.

4.If you are talking about Soddom and Gomorrah

1.) Thats probably a biblical myth

2.)If GOD himself killed them, I am sure he had a good reason. I mean, if death penalty by people is approved, death penalty by the Lord himself is unquestionable

5. Noahs ark is a myth, has nothing to do with christian morals. Not that i excpect you to actually be knowledgeable about this topic

It is arguable if Christianity sees homosexuality as a sin - Jesus nor God nver said so. It is likely however that view on homosexuality was borrowed from jewish tradition and culture and was written in the old testament (which is mostly irrelevant to christians btw) It happens quite often that one religion borrows a tradition or a cultural rule of another to make a conversion of that cultural group easier

Their ideology is nothing like christian, christianity doesn't support torture or violence, you need to stop judging the whole religion based on actions of few zealots (what am i saying? that's impossible for an atheist) and we don't even know if these people are even christians to begin with

My bolded part shows how intelligent you are. If u haven't noticed, my whole post was sarcastic. There IS more to a person than its sexuality, and christianity DOES say hate THE SIN, NOT THE SINNER. If you are able to connect the dots here, you would figure out that all that translates into Christians SHOULDN'T HATE HOMOSEXUALS because that's not what the christian message is, and no matter how many other "christians" act the other way, that will ALWAYS remain so.

 

Don't bother with trying to start a debate on the matter, because you seem like a lost cause on this matter. Im not gonna change your opinion and you sure as hell ain't gonna change mine so why waste time? I just hope you think a little about what I wrote

1. If Jesus is supposed to be God (trinity), and it the following are God's words or inspired words, Jesus is agaisn't homosexuality.

  • Lev. 18:22, "You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination."1 
  • Lev. 20:13, "If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltness is upon them" 
  • 1 Cor. 6:9-10, "Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God." 
  • EXODUS 21:20-21 According to God’s law, it was wrong to beat a slave to the point of death. But if the slave survived and got back up within a few days, the beating wasn’t punishable, because the slave was the property of the master. (God endorsed slavery and the beating of slaves.)

 

 2. Ha. 
Exodus 19:13
13 He shall surely be stoned or shot with arrows; not a hand is to be laid on him. Whether man or animal, he shall not be permitted to live.' Only when the ram's horn sounds a long blast may they go up to the mountain.
Deuteronomy 13:10
10 Stone him to death, because he tried to turn you away from the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.
Deuteronomy 17:5
5 take the man or woman who has done this evil deed to your city gate and stone that person to death.
Deuteronomy 22:21
21 she shall be brought to the door of her father's house and there the men of her town shall stone her to death.

3. Nice apologetics, still doesn't justify a human owning another human and being ALOWED to beat them in the first place. 

4. GENESIS 6 & 7 Unhappy with the wickedness of man, God killed every living thing on the planet except Noah’s family. Men, women, infants and animals drowned in unimaginable terror and agony.

EXODUS 9:5 God killed all of the Egyptian livestock with a plague.

NUMBERS 16:27-33 The men were rebellious, so God caused the earth to open and swallow up the men, wives and children.

 

NUMBERS 16:35 A fire from God killed 250 men.

NUMBER 16:48 A plague from God killed 14,700

 

I could go on...

5. Well obviously Noahs ark is a myth xD It's still in a book that's said to be "inspired by God". Ofcourse, I don't believe of lot of the shit in there didn't happen, I'm using it to present to people how disgusting a lot of what is in the bible is.

It's not really arguable, plenty of quotes from the bible I could show you (including new testament). 

Their idealogy partly comes christianity, you can't seriously be saying their aren't parts in the bible that have God endorcing violence and being violent. And no, I don't judge the whole religion based off them, I know most christiants are good hearted, kind people. My mum is catholic, it would be pretty hard to live with her if I really thought that. But thanks for lumping atheists all in the same camp, which is what you accused me of doing with christians. 

I know your post was sarcastic, but it was wrong, it's clear that not only the old testament, but the new testament and mainstream christianity sees homosexuality as wrong. You really think the majority of christians accept homosexuality as ok? I think a big minority do, but not a majority.

I held back from trying to insult you as you did me, but screw it, you came across as a fucking arsehole in the post this is replying too. At least give me the same amount of respect I gave you.
