I believe that Christianity isn't about denouncing but welcoming, faithfully and blindly accepting Jesus Christ as your lord and savior and reforming to get closer to god, seems as if people have forgotten why their ancestors came here for one reason or another.
While not exactly how I would have worded it, this is the only time that I can find (I checked) you have said this.
Had you stated it before, we might have already found some common ground.
On a separate note mestral what are your thoughts on abstinence? Pornography? Children out of wedlock? Couples playing house? Cheating on ones spouse? I'm asking because those are all things that are viewed as sinful behavior but should the government regulate those vices?
All of those behaviors can be sinful, including abstinence, under certain circumstances.
(Wow, that statement should rile some people up So I will just leave it as is...)
The government shouldn't regulate any of those behaviors.
You won't find any posting where I have said differently.
What gets me on the warpath is when the government tells a Christian that they have to participate.
And that is what has been happening for about 10 or so years now.
I don't mind being called far right.
I have been right so far.

I'll wait for your response as I'm always interested in the opinions of others.
Where in the bible does it say that "Pornography" is a sin?

So what's your deal with gay people? You mentioned it, if you don't think the government should regulate these other actions then what's the deal with the LGBT community.

You can't be serious? I'll just use the supreme courts lemon test and say I know it when I see it.

Re-read what I wrote. It is clear.
If it isn't clear, re-read what I have written before.
To be clear: I have never stated that I have a problem with how
any adult choose their particular adult sexual partner or partners.
I challenge you to show me otherwise.

It is a sad fact that, after four generations of national apostasy, the people of our nation have been so thoroughly indoctrinated in the lies of Secularism and its Communist propaganda, that they are completely unaware of the fact that this was founded as a Christian Nation, to the point where they will not believe the truth when it is spoken.
As one pastor put it: when they stop believing in the Bible,
it isn't that they believe in nothing, but rather, the problem
is that they will believe anything, except the truth.

Can't we talk about anything without religion coming into it?
Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

No.
Any other questions?
Ultimately, religion or faith is about everything you consider true and worthwhile,
so it is hard to have a decent conversation without religion coming into it.
Even if you don't think it does, it is probably there in a covert form. This is not
usually discernible when talking to someone with beliefs similar to your own,
but when the subject is something like muzzling babies, it is bound to be obvious.

Some of the questions you ask are ignorant. If you'd like the Supreme Court case that I quoted I guess I can share it with you, but they've ruled on legislative sinful behavior since the 1800s.
