[on the proper punishment for homosexuality]
I think they should not be executed(per the Age of Grace as you said Florian), but they should not be able to display such behavior in public, whether it be kissing, gay pride parades or whatever. Neither do I think they should be able to speak to children about such matters or adopt children period. Also..they should not be allowed to organize as a political lobby group.

That is a violation of the First Amendment because not everyone in the US has a religious aversion to t3h gh3y.
Then again, you guys really do seem to think the First Amendment is the First Commandment.
I think they should not be executed...
My, how magnanimous you are.
Remember what you said here the next time you and your ilk scream persecution.
"I think they should not be executed (per the Age of Enlightenment as you said), but they should not be able to display torture devices in public, whether it be crucifixes, nails or whatever. Neither do I think they should be able to speak to children about such matters, or adopt children period. Also..they should not be allowed to organize as a political lobby group."
Fixed that for ya.
So in other words, take away our rights. Is that what you're getting at?

So you basically want to take away their political agency and make them disappear from public view. Should they have to wear a pink triangle on their shirts so you know who to avoid? Maybe move them into internment camps so they don't spread "teh gay?"
Or hell, why not just come out and say you want to gas them like the Jews? You're 90% of the way there already.
They're also forgetting the right of "Christian doctors" to experiment on gay people in order to cure them. And while you've got them up on the table, might as well make sure they are blue eyed and right handed.
Lord, save me from your followers. Sheesh.
"the Age of Grace"
Grace who?
So, basically, while you might not have homosexuals killed (you are a prince among men,) you would take away their civil rights.

I think they should not be executed(per the Age of Elightenment as you said Florian), but they should not be able to display such behavior in public, whether it be praying, tent revivals or whatever. Neither do I think they should be able to speak to children about such matters or brainwash children period. Also..they should not be allowed to organize as a political lobby group.

In other words, you'd like them to be deprived of their liberty and their happiness, but not of their life.
Thanks for clearing that up.
So they stay in the closet and young people will be afraid and ashamed to ever reveal that they may has teh queer. Got it. Totally healthy way to live. Nice of you not to execute them, though. People with a same sex attraction will just be at the mercy of a tyrannical, bigoted majority and have no voice. If someone is discriminated against, gets fired from their job or beaten up or murdered because they're gay-- or perceived to be gay-- big whoop. Who cares?
And these are the loons who rant about how GLBT people persecute and harass them on a constant basis and want to take away all the rights of Good Christians everywhere.
SwordofGeddo, you have forgotten disowning a brother with gay friends .

He said here that the fact the 1st Amendment fordade the Congress of establishing a state religion don't keep the President from declating so.
This fundie flunked Constitutional law in more than a way.
EDIT:
"I think they should not be executed"
This not only passes for tolerance in Fundieland but is considered too tolerant on RR.
'Cause y'know. gotta hate sumptin', dontchaknow 'wink'.
So basically in the US you would like to eliminate the First Amendment. Why not propose that? The Constitution gives a clear procedure for amending it - it was actually already done: the 21st Amendment eliminated the 18th Amendment. So all you have to do is propose a 28th Amendment and find enough hate-filled, judgmental lunatics like you to agree to it.
I wonder how long these people you demonize are going to want to live without basic human rights. How, exactly, does any of that stuff impinge on your freedom, Geddo?
H'mmm Sword, what about having the homosexuals wearing a symbol so that children know to avoid them. Perhaps a pink triangle ... Then maybe they could live in "Gated" communities (for their own protection, of course) and work would be provided because, you know, Arbeit Macht Frei.
And we atheists will put up with Christians if they no longer display their unique behavior in public (making the sign of the cross, taking communion, quoting from the bible, publicly showing their faith via nativity scenes). They should never be allowed to speak to children or adopt them, unless the child is wearing armored underwear. And since they already are one of the largest political lobbies on earth, they should lose their tax free status.
If all that happens, then I'll put up with them.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
