[This is a classic case of "Exactly What It Says On The Tin". If you're so opposed to homosexuality, why watch the GAY POWERTHIRST video?!]
Based on my religions beliefs, homosexual BEHAVIOR is a sin just like
drinking booze or having sex outside of a marriage.I can not do anything to help sins against the teaching of the Bible
thus I can not, based on my religous beliefs, allow any of these
activities on my property, INCLUDING rental property I might own. The
civil rights laws that say I would have to rent to drinkers, unmarried
couples, or gays violate my right to live up to my religion thus such
laws are UNCONSTITUTIONAL

Oh I SO want you to toss your tenants out on the basis of religion. I would fucking love watching them take everything you have and everything you ever hope to have, then going back to the home you USED to own and getting hammered and having sex (GAY SEX EVEN!). Fuck. I think I just creamed my panties.
If you can't follow the law, don't rent. What you do in your own property is your problem.
Who the fuck are you to think that you are more equal under the law than others?
"Based on my religions beliefs"
Translation: Bullshit ahead.
"I can not, based on my religous beliefs, allow any of these activities on my property, INCLUDING rental property I might own"
I was not wrong.

No, because your religious freedom does not trump other people's ability to be treated fairly. Besides, it is against my religious beliefs to be kicked out of apartments on the basis of my drinking and sexual habits.
True "Cristian"? Wow.
Also, sure, you're welcome to kick out people based on things like that, but trust me, word will get around, and that's not the kind of reputation you want, dumbass.
Your religion requires you to be a landlord? What are you, a Rentacostal?
The law does not require you to rent at all, but it does require that if you decide to do so, you do not discriminate.
Which works both ways, because I sure wouldn't voluntarily rent to bigots like yourself.
drinking booze
Water into wine...
You as my landlord? I don't think so. You can't even spell 'religious' , or 'Christian', so I don't think you're qualified in any direction and certainly not in taking my rent for your noisome hovel.
Oh, and you can't punctuate, either. In fact you're an idiot, and I'd sooner rent from Jeffrey Dahmer than from you.

YOU can live after your stupid fantasy laws all you want, the problem starts when you are trying to push them onto other people. I know you are a fundie, but see a lawyer first will you? Your own ability to reason seems rather lacking so any help you may get, would benefit you.

And as such, you're free to abstain from all that. Have fun with that.

Yeah, you just try and evict someone for being teh ghey. See how that works for you.

Aw, boo...sorry that the law of the land says you can't just turf someone just because your sky daddy says you shouldn't like them...apparently people get pissy about someone throwing people out into the cold because you're a sanctimonious ass.
If your religion prevents you from doing business, you're in the wrong fucking business.
I mean, have you ever tried to hire a born-again hooker? Those bitches is stuck UP.
Pfft, I'm male and about as straight as they come, but if I had a landlord ban me from having gay sex on his property, I'd make a point of getting myself a boyfriend, and probably marry him (sorry, enter into a civil partnership) just for extra credit.

Eris is telling me to punch you. Of course, I know you'll agree not to press charges on the grounds that punishing me for following the commands of my goddess would be unconstitutional.
Laws that enforce the civil rights of minorities, as per the Constitution, are unconstitutional? Huh? You know, you don't *have* to rent to anyone you don't like based on religious grounds, *but* -- and this is important -- it's highly likely you'll end up on the streets after paying legal fees and damages to those people you refuse to rent to.
TRUECRISTIAN, you're their landlord, not their mommy. You have absolutely no say in what your renters do in private, as long as it's not illegal or distructive. Doesn't your own bible say something about not being a busybody?
I do believe you’re correct.
You cannot rent property to people who practice actions that violate your faith.
However, if you really read the bible, I realy believe Jesus’ advice to you would be to let them live there, free.
He hates wealth, and wants everyone supported, right? His direction to welcome the stranger and feed the poor doesn’t say anything about them obeying Hebrew Laws.
The True Jesus (not Republican Jesus) would listen to your problem and say, “You CHARGE your brothers for shelter?”
Confused?
