Dan Savage's Anti-Bible Rant Only Hurts The Gay Rights Movement

Why do you lie and call me David? Just because his image fits your hate based stereotype?
You're really sick.

You missed the most FUN event tonight. The dedicating of the 26 foot Marilyn Monroe statue in downtown Palm Springs. There weren't the planned drag queens, but only one, a big black guy dressed as Marilyn. the mayor, city council, all the TV channels. And, maybe a thousand people showed up to enjoy the fun.

I thought of you. I thought "does that changing name guy EVER have fun, or is his life a non stop angry mutter and non stop flipping through a worn out bible, as he jabbers to himself bastards, bastards, they will burn, they will burn!".

I actually felt sorry for you. We went out and had cocktails at a lovely outdoor restaurant, everyone around us was chatty and in a good mood. I wonder what you did this evening for fun?

Sounds like fun, Curt. And if it weren't for you, I'd never have known that Chicago had a twenty-six foot statue of Marilyn Monroe, much less that she'd mover to Palm Springs. I guess I missed the statue in Chicago. Next time I'm in Palm Springs, it will probably be more noticeable.

You really don't need to keep posting that. It makes YOU look pathetic and self hating, which no doubt you are.
What ever happened to Ate a Lott?

You're only fooling yourself. We know exactly what you're up to, and so does your Jesus.

She's only here for a year, sadly! Hurry out! We'll take you to one of our favorite places for dinner and drinks.

She shows up more here than on Michigan Ave. amongst the high rises, here she is taller than most of the buildings around her.

Too bad they didn't suceed in restoring his mental health. We might have a happy homosexual on our hands if they had of.

Simon wrote:

<quoted text>At least you recognize that you cannot refute the irrefutable fact that the Bible repeatedly condemns all homosexual behavior in both Testaments and in the plainest of terms.
.

Five verses is "repeatedly"? God must be really serious about adultry what with almost 200 verses against it.

Here is something refuting your claim of "irrefutable."

Matthew 29:26, "With God all things are possible"

ROM. 2:11 ("For there is no respect of persons with God"

Ecclesiastes 3:1, "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven:"

If you want more you know I have them David.

Like Lulu said, Burrito Bible Boy still is trying to force others into eating his Burrito.

You know, I might eat a Burrito. I may even enjoy eating a burrito. I'm not going to eat David's burrito after he sticks it down the front of his Captain American outfit.

I might like to read the Bible. I may even enjoy reading the Bible. I'm not going to accept Burrito Boy's bastardization of the Bible.

Same difference!!!

Lulu is brilliant.

You are really, truly, sick, but I'm sure you know that.

Funny how you have utterly failed to show any other 'reading' of the Bible other than what it actually says: ALL HOMOSEXUAL BEHAVIOR IS REPEATEDLY CONDEMNED IN THE PLAINEST OF LANGUAGE.

You can't cite ANY Bible translation, ancient Bible text, or Judeo-Christian tradition that places this FACT in question, yet you Spam on and post malicious fiction.

Sick.

I thought about you last night when I was at the Marilyn Monroe statue dedication downtown Palm Springs. They had a parachute over her 26 feet tall head. A fire truck used its ladder to lift the tarp all dramatically. There must have been at least 500 people down there, mayor, city council, etc.

A bunch of us went to a lovely outdoor cafe and had happy hour food and a couple of drinks and it was just so much fun. Even you might have found a new sensation...a smile.

What do YOU do for fun? Do you ever even HAVE fun, or just mutter over your dog eared bible, finding fault with anyone who is not YOU?

I got Subway and Starbucks on the way home. Tasty dinner. Now I'm pondering some lemon spinach for a snack.

Aaaw, did him talking about a burrito make you all horny and your boyfriend nowhere to be found. You can find porn for free online, in case you didn't know.

Ok, David. WTF is it with you? STOP telling lies about the Jews! How many times have I warned you about that?

Yes, we know you are frustrated by the fact that you can make no logical case for your horrible hate based radical homosexual movement.

Claiming anyone who differs with you shares your horrible perverted lifestyle choice just makes YOU and your hate based cause look pathetic.

You're the liar and have failed to cite ANY Bible translation, ancient Bible text, or Judeo-Christian tradition that places in question the Bible's repeated commands against all homosexual behavior. You even lie about my identity.

Keep on spreading that lie. How long have you known better, two YEARS now? I think that makes you retarded.

RAC:

we are guided by the very basic belief that all human beings are created b’tselem Elohim (in the Divine image), as it says in Genesis 1:27,“And God created humans in God’s own image, in the image of God, God created them; male and female God created them.” Rabbi David Saperstein said in Congressional testimony in support of ENDA that “regardless of context, discrimination against any person arising from apathy, insensitivity, ignorance, fear, or hatred is inconsistent with this fundamental belief. We oppose discrimination against all individuals, including gays, lesbians, and bisexuals, for the stamp of the Divine is present in each and every one of us.”

Each of us, created in God’s image, has a unique talent, with which we can contribute to the high moral purpose of tikkun olam, the repair of our world. Excluding anyone from our community lessens our chance of achieving this goal of a more perfect world.

Morning, "VINCE", what are your plans for the 3 Day weekend? A BBQ with friends and family, or three dismal days of anger and muttering over your dog-eared and stained bible, grumbling, stomach bubbling, wishing strangers to a firey hell?

When was the last time you smiled, or laughed, or sat and enjoyed a nice cup of coffee, smiling at the morning sun, being happy to be alive? When you walk through your town, do you smile at people, or glare at them, trying to imagine them all going straight to hell?

If you saw me in a car on fire would you help me out, or stand there and point, convulsed with rancid cruel laughing in bitter self righteousness?

I better drive carefully around your town.
