His pride stands in the way of his repenting. Atheism is very common among homosexuals. Why? Because it is a worldview that does not require accountability. There is no god in atheism for the Atheist to answer to but himself, the perfect set up for a person who's life revolves around himself.
Homosexuality is the lowest form of self love that there is. Rather, it is a self obsession. The person wants or craves a lover that is like themselves. Homosexuals are selfish by nature. They don't give a darn if their lifestyle negatively impacts children or the culture at large. It is a adoration and a worship of self. Who gives a zip about others is the philosophy behind this lifestyle. Homosexuals are selfish to the point that they even want to force acceptance of their behavior on churches and privately owned businesses.

Atheism is also common among hetrosexuals. And there is no god in atheism PERIOD. We atheists see ourselves as part of a greater community, to which we are responsible and accountable.
Your homophobic bullshit is noted.
Maybe if you actually understood homosexuality or atheism, you'd be a bit smarter and not write stupid drivel like this. As far as being selfish, when's the last time you sold all your belongings and gave that money to the poor like your Jesus told you to?
'Homosexuals are selfish to the point that they even want to force acceptance of their behavior on churches and privately owned businesses.'
No, churches, which influence the owners of businesses believe they have the right to dictate how people conduct an aspect of their lives which is private, and does not affect anyone else.
Why wouldn't atheism be common among homosexuals? These people are subjected to constant demonstrations of the hypocricy, hatred, dishonesty and fear which lies at the very core of christianity. Why would anyone who has seen that want to be a part of such a grubby institution?
Says the guy who believed he was created in the image of fucking god.
Buddhists, Taoists, Confucians and members of animalistic religions don't have a god either. Your arguments sucks.
Evangelism is the lowest form of self love that there is. Rather, it is a self obsession. The person wants or craves company that is like themselves. Evangelists are selfish by nature. They don't give a darn if their lifestyle negatively impacts children or the culture at large. It is a adoration and a worship of self. Who gives a zip about others is the philosophy behind this lifestyle. Evangelists are selfish to the point that they even want to force acceptance of their behavior on churches and privately owned businesses.
if a privately owned buisness offers a public service, then they are, by law, not allowed to discriminate based of sexuality.
and for people who are always griping about how immoral people are these days you sure seem quick to shut people out of the churches. christianity cant afford to become an old boys club. the sooner you realize that and stop excluding/targeting/harassing innocent people who have done nothing to/against you the better.
"Homosexuality is the lowest form of self love that there is. Rather, it is a self obsession."
If there's anyone that's obsessed with homosexuality it's you homophobic bigots.
I wonder why that may be?
> Why? Because it is a worldview that does not require accountability. There is no god in atheism for the Atheist to answer to but himself, the perfect set up for a person who's life revolves around himself.
You know, this was one of the most insightful moments when I became Wiccan. I'm not accountable to some supernatural things for my actions - my fuck-ups affect most immediately me , and they affect other people . This, if anything, makes morality a little bit higher priority.
If you have in any way functioning sense of morality, then when you realise you can do everything, you will also immediately realise that you ought not to do everything. Some things just are bad for you, and bad for everyone.
Homosexuality, however, isn't one of those things. There's no rational reason why it would be considered bad. All you have is your accountability to following a piece of outdated literature.
How's your logic look to you when we amend the denotation of the argument?
"His pride stands in the way of his understanding. Theism is very common among heterosexuals. Why? Because it is a worldview that does not require accountability. There is no responsibility in theism for the theist to answer to but his all-forgiving imaginary friend, the perfect set up for a person who's life revolves around himself.
Heterosexuality is the lowest form of self love that there is. Rather, it is a self obsession. The person wants or craves a lover with whom they can make another that is like themselves. Heterosexuals are selfish by nature. They don't give a darn if their lifestyle negatively impacts gay children or the culture at large. It is a adoration and a worship of self. Who gives a zip about others is the philosophy behind this lifestyle. heterosexuals are selfish to the point that they even want to force exclusivity of their behavior on churches, privately owned businesses and everyone."

WWWWolf, you're entirely right.
Also, I think that Inzl Kett got homosexuality and atheism wrong; xir notion is one huge straw argument; God (whether He, in the viewer's opinion, exists or otherwise) is just one stakeholder where accountability is concerned.
One more thing wouldn't believing in a God / Pantheon who agrees with you all the time and condemns all you disagree with be even more self-obsession than even Inzl Kett's own definition of homosexuality? Just my gut-feeling.
Maybe quite a few GLBT people are nonreligious and atheist because they were soured by religion. I wonder why that could be? Or maybe, like many people, they decided religion wasn't needed.
Hell, fundamentalists aren't just wrapped up in themselves in making god in their own image, they want everything and everyone else to conform to their irrational views. It has to be about them 24/7.
It's boggling they can even try to say an atheist isn't accountable for their own actions. We don't pray to god for forgiveness to make everything okay if we do something bad. We put all our life choices and consequences squarely on ourselves. Can't pass the buck on that "sin," like Christians.
[Homosexuality is the lowest form of self love that there is. ]
Psst. You forgot about that "I love you but hate who you are" mantra of love spread like a social disease from wonderful, err... "Christians", such as yourself.
[They don't give a darn if their lifestyle negatively impacts children or the culture at large. ]
Ah, just like religious fundamental ists.
[Who gives a zip about others is the philosophy behind this lifestyle. ]
Ah, just like religious fundamental ists.
[Homosexuals are selfish to the point that they even want to force acceptance of their behavior on churches and privately owned businesses. ]
Ah, just like religious fundamental ists.
Well actually no, gays could only aspire to be as freedom-denying and vitriol-spewing as the religious fundamentalist.
"There is no god in atheism for the Atheist to answer to but himself..."
Other than their lack of intelligence, I can't understand why there Fundie morons equate atheism with believing oneself to be a god.
"Homosexuals are selfish by nature. They don't give a darn if their lifestyle negatively impacts children or the culture at large."
Homosexuality is not a lifestyle, it's a sexual orientation. That said, prove that having homosexuals in a society negatively effects children and the culture at large. Show your work.
Atheism is very common among homosexuals. Why?
Probably because they see through the fearmongering that most major religions enact towards homosexuality and start to question if any of those religions' content is valid, often coming up with the answer "no." They realize that the bigotry directed against them stems from millennia-old, uninformed prejudices that have no bearing on today's society.
And, actually, it'd be more correct to say that atheism is common among out gays. Many religious gay people suppress their actual orientation because they've been told gays are horrible depraved monsters, and they for whatever reason do not choose go against the grain.
Well, other people got the God in your own Image thing down.
I'm agnostic, not Atheistic. But trust me, there can be no self love when you're busy trying to love someone else who is separate from you, who is entirely unlike you, no matter than sex or gender. I've spent enough time in my relationship to know that if I loved myself most of all, I wouldn't have made a life long commitment to another person.
Accountability does not just involve "answering to" people. It also involves being willing to be blamed or criticized if your actions are hurtful to other people.
In my experience, and in all the years I've been reading conservative news sources, conservatives Christians are pretty good about being accountable for "following all the rules", but put them to a different test and they have little accountability at all, because they almost never acknowledge that their EVER actions harm others. They meet criticism and blame with solipsism, ironically accusing their critics of shifting blame.
Personally, if someone told me that the only reason he doesn't go on a murder spree is because he thinks God will punish him if he doesn't, I would carefully watch my back around this person -- he might actually kill me if he thought God had given him special permission to do so.
If atheism is very common among homosexuals, it's probably due to the treatment they have received from religious people. Everyone in society has to answer to the government if they break any laws. Homosexuality is very similar to heterosexuality, the only difference is the genders involved. Heterosexuality has about as much impact on children and the culture at large as homosexuality does, maybe even a a bit more as it's much more common.
You seem to know an awful lot about how homosexuals feel and think. Is there something you want to tell us? Don't be afraid; we're not as judgmental as your friends would be.
Supercilious, holier-than-thou, delusions, projection.
Is there any such thing as a quad-fecta?

Yes, for the life of me, I can't figure it out.
What we know about man-made inventions such as Bible God is that they appeal to the delusional prig. They cause people like Inzl Kett to write reams of fatuous drivel and down-right lies under the impression that it's either theologically sound or that it's clever propaganda.
What a dribbling moron. Worm food that wastes his only shot at being a human.
You do realize that gays are twice as likely as straights to have a partner of a different race, right? So much for your narcissism "theory," gays tend to have lovers who do not look like them.
You, on the other hand, think you were created in the image of a god, AND that you have *no* personal responsibility to actually *do* jack shit, all you have to do is pray, and your god will make it better. Meanwhile, responsible atheists actually have to do something to make a positive impact in the world, they can't just mouth some words to make themselves feel less selfish.
Confused?
