Homosexuals are "live and let live" as long as you go by their party line.

>> all because of a book he wrote for a men’s Bible study group at his Baptist church.

But, but... “Separation of Church and State.”

for a thread about the book.

Also, a link to buy the book.

We have sent, in the last 48 hours, the book racing up the amazon.com charts.

48 hours ago, it was at #21,000 as of this hour, it is at #598.

Sue them under a 1st amendment infringement, age and racial discrimination.

The laws are written to protect tbe right of the individuals religious concience and must be enforced to protect everyone’s rights, which are equal to each other.

His views didn’t disenfranchise anyone.

They didn’t infringe on anyone’s rights to be gay.

He didn’t intimidate anyone to conform to his thoughts under some penalty he mete out.

“I will not tolerate discrimination of any kind within my administration.”

Except for the discrimination you showed towards the fire chief and all christians.

Imagine if the Fire Chief wrote a book about coming out as gay. The city would have celebrated it, but professing Christian beliefs will now get one fired. There’s a weird role reversal where gays can be openly gay at work and Christians now have to be closeted.

“Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed”... stopped right there. An arabic name on an African American signals that the individual is a member of he “perpetually aggrieved” class and therefore hard lefty.

“This is about judgment,” Mayor Reed said during a Tuesday press conference. “This is not about religious freedom. This is not about free speech. Judgment is the basis of the problem.”

EVERY time we speak we are making some sort of judgment.

let me see.....this guy wrote a book that disparages homosexuality. He did NOT make anti-homo comments on the job to any of his co-workers. And the mayor fires him???

This is certainly grounds for a lawsuit, and I think he should run against the mayor in the next election. He would likely win in a landslide, even in Atlanta, I suspect. Though Atlanta is largely black and thus Democrat, MANY blacks are not in favor of queerdom.

He wasn’t fired for his faith. He was fired for speaking his mind outside of work. It’s a far more insidious problem because it affects everyone regardless of their belief system.

Choosing to be homosexual trumps the benign characteristic of being black. And that’s because the trunk spelunkers, far out of proportion to their numbers, have wealth and megaphones to destroy anyone who disagrees with their filthy, dangerous, and immoral lifestyle.

Homophobia: Absolutely forbidden. Christianphobia: go ahead, its really ok, no problems. I also note here that according to spell check, homophobia is spelled correctly but there is no word Christianphobia.

Who needs intolerant Muslims when you have intolerant queers?
