| The_Yoda said: I said before people should be accepted warts and all. Perspective plays a huge roll in this. From a Christian perspective homosexuality is a sin or in my simplified example a wart. From a homosexual's perspective they may consider the view of homosexuality being sin as a wart. It depends from whose perspective you view things who is right and who is wrong. So many things in life boil down to perspective. |
Ultimately religion societal progress hasn't occured in the US because of Christianity, its because of philosophy and humans rights movements. Religion was will always be used as an excuse for why people should be held down. Its just the way it is and when 78% of the country thinks like this, its very hard to find reason. This is not to say that everyone shouldn't have the ability to practice and believe in what they want. Thats what the forefathers wanted us to do and have the luxury to do. The problem with Christians that they are trying to force Christian dominant thinking into the political sphere and when that happens society will only fall from it. History books teach us how dangerous it is to mix church with state.
