I'd consider the homosexual threat to civil liberties to be as great as the risk of terrorist attack by Muslim terrorists.

And yet it's the gays who are seeking civil liberties, not to take them away, unless you consider being hateful, ignorant, and generally inhumane a civil liberty.
You can consider it whatever you want. You , however, constitute 1/360,000,000 of the U.S. population... and your consideration means about as much as that.
The dirty gum on Sarah Palin's running shoes is more important than what you consider to be a threat to civil liberties.
I'm a little more worried about the terrorists -- of any religion! -- than I am about "the homosexual threat to civil liberties."
You know, because terrorists actually CAUSE HARM....
I consider you stupid.
Guess what? I'm right.
So far, so good Sparky. But...ah...er...just exactly what civil liberties are a threat to us due to gay people? And while you are busy filling us in on that one, how about explaining how such a threat is as great as a terrorist attack?
That's the first time I've seen the word 'consider' used to mean 'pull stuff out of my arse'. Even though you're way off on the meaning of the word, it does have three syllables, so congratulations to you!
Hey, they may actually have a point.
I mean, just think of all the homophobes who spontaneously combust at the sight of gay people. I mean, that's got to be a danger to the public, right?
(On the plus side, it could be great for pride events. Get some homophobes, pack lots of glitter and sequins around them, and suspend them in cages over the path of the march. When the parade passes beneath them, BOOM! Sparkles and kidneys everywhere!)
Trying to link Obama to Muslim terrorists didn't work for Sarah Palin, and it's not going to work for you to try to link homosexuals to them.
There should be a new Godwin: Now in any online debate or discussion if it continues on long enough, Muslim terrorists will be invoked.
4 Step Perfect Proof for the Flying Spaghetti Monster
The Flying Spaghetti Monster said He proves Himself by observing pasta. Let's see if He is right. 1) Something can't come from that which does not exist, so pasta requires a cause. 2) Pasta can't always have existed because a) heat death would be far greater than it is, and b) mankind would have approximated into that alleged past eternity and not still be perfecting capellini all'amatriciana to the extent it still does along the exponential progression of conscience we are clearly on. What other option is there than the uncaused (uncreated) created?
Choose the one true faith (true reality) that comes out on top from the ones that are accessible: Christianity, Hinduism/Buddhism, Islam, Pastafarianism. Obviously Pastafarianism is the most personal because the Flying Spaghetti Monster reveals Himself in linguine. And only the Flying Spaghetti Monster is proven by the pirate proof and multiple resurrection appearances in various group settings, e.g.,

If you want to be eternally separated from the Flying Spaghetti Monster, it’s your choice to send yourself to be boiled in marinara. Unwittingly, however, you lead many people to the Flying Spaghetti Monster and strengthen the faith of Pastafarians and lead them to the stripper factory and the beer volcano because you are unable to disprove the perfect proof for the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
RAmen.
As a straight man, to all my bi friends, both my ex's, gay friends and lesbian friends I am sorry we have shitheads like this asshole. Why are you so damn threatened by homosexuality? It has no effect on my rights as a straight man. It is not a threat to civil rights. Well maybe it is in the sense that they might *gasp* have the same rights as you have! Oh no! Not that! Not equal rights!
Re: Doubting Thomas's post
Agreed, there should a new Godwin;s law dealing with this...
But the question is what should we call it ?
Osama's Law perhaps, or "The Son Of The Slave Law..?".
(Note: That's what the rest of the Bin Laden Family called him, though not to his face... The "Slave" was a not so subtle reference to his free spirited Lebanese mother, who divorced his father, & later married a Syrian businessman) .
Finally, to the poster that spoofed a certain troll, LOL...
Wha-wha-whaaat?
For one thing, civil liberties are LIMITED without accomodations for gays and lesbians.
For another thing, just comparing the act of consensual adult love to wanton destruction and murder committed by suicidal bigots for Gawd is so deeply offensive and stupid that I really can't even come up with a proper retort.
@Sasha
Christian fundamentalists trying to create a U.S. theocracy pose at least as grave a threat to our civil rights as Muslim fundamentalist terrorists
No, it is most certainly worse .
First, these nutjob fundies somehow get accorded more respect and treated as if they have more credibility than they could ever have. But no one who can affect our liberties gives respect or credibility to terrorists.
Second, the primary threat to civil liberty from terrorism has almost always been that the fundies are willing to sacrifice almost all freedom in exchange for the mere illusion of safety. Once the attacks start, it's the folks being attacked clamoring to remove freedom.
RIGHT..because peceful homosexuals that have been together for over 20 years and want an official marriage so they can have a few things easier is EXACTLY like strapping dynamite to your chest and blowing yourself up along with children and old people.
Glad to see the Bible has helped you to get your head on straight.
Oh...my....
Gays <i>demand</i> civil rights, they do not pose any threat to civil rights. They want them too!
And I would gladly discuss the question which religious group committed the most terrorist acts in, let's say, the past 2000 years. (although it makes little sense in my opinion)
Because on the day of the 9/11 Terrorist attacks, Johnny and Damien snuck into a stall in the boy's washroom at school and kissed . And God got so pissed off he sent a couple of planes into a building full of innocent people to punish them.
Terrorists slamming planes into buildings hurts people. Johnny and Damien passing love notes to each other under the desks in History class doesn't. See the difference?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
