Comment: Thanks a lot Rowling, I'm gonna go light the local bookstore on fire to cleanse it of Satan's stench. Being gay should be a crime and is an instant ticket to hell. I hope all of you gay sympathizers end up in hell too, supporting the Devil is one of the biggest sins (besides being gay) ever.

Wait, wasn't HP already shitlisted by fundies worldwide due to the whole magic thing? Why are they this up in arms NOW regarding the gayness?
Oh. Right. Fundamentalism.
This isn't even considering the fact that unlike magic, Dumbledore's orientation was an obvious afterthought.
Finally, you can GTFO my dimension for even CONSIDERING a bookfire, nevermind a -whole bookstore- fire.
Okay.
The revelation of a fictional character being gay is what sets you over the edge? The hundreds, if not thousands of books about gay people, by gay people, and for gay people weren't?
an instant ticket to hell.
As is everything. And everyone. Wearing polyesther clothing, having imperfect eyesight and being a modern farmer are all sins, and will send you directly to hell. As will so much as mentioning Yahweh. So why is te Gayz bad? In fact, why is any sin bad full stop? They cannot be followed, so you shouldn't care.
So the revelation that a fictional character in a series of popular kids' books is gay--a revelation that has had no bearing on the series is enough to send you into an arsonist's rage?
What about the books and essays written by, say, Gay Talese? Are those "Satan's stench" too?
Freakin' moron...
Thanks a lot Rowling, I'm gonna go light the local bookstore on fire to cleanse it of Satan's stench.
And I hope that you get arrested for it.
Being gay should be a crime and is an instant ticket to hell.
Being a hateful, intolerant bigot is a crime and is an instant ticket to hell.
I hope all of you gay sympathizers end up in hell too, supporting the Devil is one of the biggest sins (besides being gay) ever.
I hope all of you homophobic sympathizers end up in hell too, supporting the Devil is one of the biggest sins (besides lust, sloth, pride, gluttony, wrath, envy) ever.
Please do it when no one is there, otherwise innocent Christians who are just trying to buy a new bible after wearing out their old ones might get hurt. As long as no one gets hurt, I'll laugh when you get a life sentence.
I will laugh my arse off whilst your arse gets worn out.
This reminds me of a library being burned in Iran (IIRC, middle east anyway). The perps were angry over a koran that was "desecrated", therefore thay torched the local library which contained several irreplaceable antique Korans.
@#340367: You forgot Greed ^^;
Also, while there's not really a specific heirharchy of sins, there are at least 7 worse than homosexuality by definition and you can probably add another 10 from the commandments making homosexuality at most the 18th worst sin.
Wow the Holy one can be locked up for terroristic threats now!
RE NotMe:
How Ironic, so do they think they're going to hell now? After all they must have burned many Korans, antique and modern.
Yeah, I love how these people make homosexuality out to be the biggest sin there is, but it never made the seven deadly sins (Well, lust maybe, but that's equally applicable to heterosexual relations, so it's pretty null) and never made the 10 commandments. Hell, the best it made was a couple remarkably vague verses, one of which was repealed by the coming of the new testament (Either all Levitican laws were nullified or none of them were. Deal with it. :p) So I fail to see, if God himself never made THAT big of a deal about it, why the fundies do, unless they're just looking for a new boogyman, since DA DEBBIL seems to be losing his luster.
Wow. You will burn a bookstore that also sells books that SUPPORT THE BIBLE! Think before you speak, asshole! Also, learn to be more tolerant, you homophobic bully!
In one interview Ms Rowling said that Dumbledore just turned out gay, it wasn't a decision of hers.
Anyway, it's not like he has gay orgies in any of the books, he just had a teenage crush on a friend.
If being gay is such a great sin, how come it's neither in the Ten Commandments nor in the Seven deadly sins? According to the Bible, being gay just as bad as eating shellfish, cutting your beard or wearing clothes of mixed fibers. Come to think of it, supporting the Devil isn't in the Ten Commandments or the Seven deadly sins either...
It's almost as God isn't that fussed with gayness, really.
Which is worse: letting a book about gays sell, or arson. Gay --- arson.
[fundie]Gay! Gay is worse![/fundie]
Wait, WHAT?
So being gay is a bigger sin than DIRECTLY SUPPORTING SATAN?
Somehow, that just doesn't seem right. But with fundies, what does?

Didn't Rowling say at one point that Dumbledore turned out gay without a conscious choice from her side. Besides, it's just a boyhood infatuation, and then nothing. He might as well be bi, or asexual. And, ya know, fictional.
Y'know, I learned abour Slash Fiction way after I became a "Star Trek" fan.
My attitude?: 'Just another facet of 'I.D.I.C.' '
Now get over the fact that you learned only too late that Dumbledore was gay, and get over yourself , THO.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
