 DouglasDirk says: This photo and others like it make me very angry. Anger towards the parents that are using their children to promote hate and intolerance. Bigotry and hate are yet alive and well in our society and we need to ban together to aid in eliminating it. The photo is sad. The photo is a lie. I can hear Jesus now saying, "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do." And I am sure that these children have no clue what they are depicting by wearing these (rags) shirts. Shame on the parents or guardians of them! POP ME IF YOU AGREE! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Unbelievably, Unbelievable ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! I agree and I popped! every clip like this brings me more fully to atheism. Oh baby, I so do agree! "Hate is not a family value." That's the slogan of a organization called (PLAG). It's a slogan that most Americans, conservative or liberal, believers and nonbelievers alike, accept as a given. That is just so wrong deb, great quote you pointed out. I like that and agree with it. Can you provide more info on PLAG? Sorry Ort, You might have recognized it had I not inadvertently left the F out. It's PFLAG. http://www.pflag.org/ I can hear Jesus now saying, "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do."Nice to see his words quoted. I often wonder if it's a different Christianity that you have over there than the one I grew up with. You know, the one with love and not hate and retribution. His one. You've got to be taught to hate and fear You've got to be taught from year to year It's got to be drummed in your dear little ear You've got to be carefully taught / G - D9 - / / / G Am7 G - / You've got to be taught to be afraid Of people whose eyes are oddly made And people whose skin is a different shade You've got to be carefully taught You've got to be taught before it's too late Before you are six or seven or eight To hate all the people your relatives hate You've got to be carefully taught You've got to be carefully taught / Cmaj7 G+ Cmaj7 G+ / Cmaj7 G+ Cmaj7 C#dim7 / / D7sus4 - D7 - / G G7 Cmaj7 C#dim7 / D7sus4 - G - / Rogers and Hammerstein, South Pacific I hate to see beautiful children so wrongly abused. I hate to see beautiful children so wrongly abusedYes, but Hamas Mickey teaches both HATE and VIOLENCE. Guess they one-upped the western nations on that one didn't they. Hamas Mickey was canceled so the producers wanted to ensure their teaching of hatred by killing off Hamas in front of all the children and declaring him a martyr. Of course this goes far to show all how peaceful and non violent Islamic religion is. The Westboro Baptist Church (creators of t-shirts in photo) was recently successfully sued for $11 million in damages by the father of a deceased U.S. soldier whose funeral they picketed. To Napster:: Why the yes but.... do you think that one hatred justifies another? Hate is a fire that eats the soul. Proclaimed by the ignorant who try and raise their self opinion, by discrediting others. It is ultimately self destructive, but can also leave carnage in it's wake. The worst thing we can do is answer hate with hate. It doesn't deserve that much credibility. We can't ignore it. Love and compassion are the only things that can put out the fire of hate. If someone who is burning refuses water. the hate will burn out when their life ends. and leave no remains pokkets said:I would say it was more accurate to say "followed" by the ignorant. Those that proclaim hatred to others are not ignorant, but intolerant and they seek to validate that hatred by getting the ignorant to agree. Give me a break! The world is full of stupid people and they usually teach their kids the same stupid things. Your just playing into the whole shock value ploy that they are wanting. The unfortunate part is that the kids learn the same behavior, and thus it's perpetuated into the next generation. If stupid people make your claim for atheism "stronger," that's pretty pathetic. Such statements show your lack of depth and prove that you truly are not really interested in actually knowing that there's a God. One who is willing to do the work required to gain faith knows that the adversary is actively involved in trying to cloud our sight and mind, the acts of "stupid people" actually ... jeli, you did not say one true statement. You have done the same thing that these haters have done, and that is make statements based on your belief and your refusal to accept that what you believe cannot be true. "God hates fags". Why? Because by plying that statement as true it panders to the intolerance promoted in the bible and attracts the ignorant to accept the belief. "Good and Evil requires the existance of a Higher Power". Why? Because by plying that statement as true it panders to the fear promoted in the bible and attracts the ignorant to accept the belief. Religion uses fear and reward as a means to influence people. It's a methodology feeds off of the ignorant ideas and under... Blah, typing error and no editor. The statement should be "based on your belief and your refusal to accept that what you believe cannot be false." Oortcloud: I stand corrected, as hate is so often used to manipulate. Often being personal and specifically directed, ignorance can just be providing messengers, while instigators are more inclined to maintain a low profile, and an inoffensive mask. I don't understand. You mean you think god likes cigarettes? |
