Homophobic Baptists and the Atheist

Hello again all...I am a born-again atheist. I don't really want to be an atheist. The simple idea of you are born in pain, live in pain, and die in pain, then become worm fodder, is one bleak story. However, the current state of Christianity leaves much to be desire...I wonder why God actually talks with Pat Roberson? And why didn't God tell Pat where and when the nuclear attack was going to happen? God did say nuclear, or so Pat claims. Think maybe God watches 24? If I told my friends God spoke with me last night, they would have me committed. I digress...
The latest Born Again Yappist mania is from the President of the leading Southern Yappist seminary, Rev. R. Albert Mohler, Jr., who came up with this gem...first he went against the grain and said there is scientific research that "points to some level of biological causation" for homosexuality...the conservative right-wing lunatic fringe must be boiling since they know homosexuality is really a choice...like I choose to be straight anymore than someone chooses to be gay....and I wonder why the Yappist's God is homophobic? First Timothy points out that God is misogynistic: "Women cannot teach or have authority over man: she must remain silent." The Catholics have made good on that misogyny, but the Catholics let pedophiles teach the word of God, but keep them women from preaching...keep them women silent...so I guess God is homophobic and misogynistic....I digress again...
but Mr. Mohler's real gem of thinking is that he would support the possible medical treatment that could switch an unborn gay baby's orientation to heterosexual but tinkering with the unborn...never mind the fact the such gene or genes would be tied to other aspects of social and sexual behavior. If Big Religion cannot make people straight by changing their minds and making them choose to be heterosexual, or by forcing them to be straight, then they are willing to try prenatal techniques to reverse homosexuality....Mohler believes: " I realize this sounds very offensive to homosexuals, but it's the only way a Christian can look at it. We should have no more problem with that than treating any medical problem."..Paging Dr. Mengele....Paging Dr. Mengele, white courtesy telephone....even more chilling is a quote from Rev. Joseph Fessio, a prominent Roman Catholic thinker and homophobe....."Same-sex activity is considered a disorder. If there are ways of detecting diseases or disorders of children in the womb, and a way of treating them that respected the dignity of the child and mother, it would be a wonderful advancement of science." And these are the same people against stem-cell research...We spend more time and money legislating and trying to cure homosexuality and making Muslims Republicans than we do feeding the poor, helping seniors get their medicines, or helping the homeless....I wonder if the right wing lunatic fringe for war and intolerance thinks Mary Chaney, Dick's daughter, is immoral?

Then General Pace makes his brilliant statement that homosexuality is immoral...there are 65,000 gay people serving in the military. So when a gay soldier dies in Iraq or Afghanistan, his or her death doesn't matter since he or she is immoral. Do gay soldier deaths figure into the body count? Nah. One way to keep the body count down. I guess the families of the dead gay soldiers don't grieve for the loss of their sons and daughters...They're relieved. I guess gay soldiers are not heroic and don't serve their country with honor...when gay soldiers die, the world is a better place...no death with dignity for gay soldiers...and people wonder why I am an atheist...

We heterosexuals have committed incest for years...is that not immoral? Why not stop incest in the womb? Heterosexual marriage has fostered mental, verbal, physical, and verbal abuse for years....isn't that immoral? why not stop abuse in the womb? Christians refuse to see their own immorality. The Born Again Yappists only see gay people as immoral, when we straight people have been immoral for years....Why aren't the Yappists against everything immoral? Why pick only on Gays? Why not be fair and see the immorality in straight people too..and what about bigotry and hatred and intolerance? Isn't that immoral too? Why can't we eliminate those traits? I guess when God is homophobic and misogynistic, it follows God's followers would be homophobic and misogynistic too...I wonder who created whom in their image...seems humans have created a God in their image more than a God created humans in God's image....guess the line in the Bible "don't judge lest you be judged" is only a suggestion....another of God's many contradictions...God is such a trickster...I have a hard time with Yappists because I have heard several delusional Born-agains actually say Catholics are not Christians...the arrogant and ignorance of that statement...Yappist really believe they are the only ones that will be saved....the Yappist's God is bigger than every one's else God. What if God and Jesus are really Catholics??? I didn't know religion has become my God is bigger than your God....but I digress again...
Morality is the false hope we are redeemable, with conscience...we are the Christian nation that wiped out the native Americans. We are the Christian nation who enslaved blacks and openly lynched them for years. We are the Christian nation, the only nation, who dropped two nuclear bombs on another country. We are the Christian nation whose hands are covered in blood. Morality is a human creation to relieve our guilty conscience of the heinous horrors we have inflicted on each other since civilization began. When exactly was civilization totally civil? Moral?... I digress....
