(re: clashes between anti-homophobia rally and right-wing Christian protestors in Adelaide)
As the march began, the Christian preachers led the way in protest, denouncing homosexuality and lesbianism as a crime against God for which those who practice will be damned and go to hell.
The motivation of the Christian preachers was one of love for God and their neighbour, and equal marriage rights will not be tolerated by rational Australians.

Threatening people with eternal torment is bullying, not love. It also goes against what your own god said:
"Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again."

Love is knowing when to destroy lives
"As the march began, the Christian preachers led the way in protest, denouncing homosexuality and lesbianism as a crime against God for which those who practice will be damned and go to hell."
Homosexuality and lesbianism are both the same thing. For the love of God, get the damn thing right!
Also, it's certainly nice to know that God would send people to Hell for loving the wrong person.
"The motivation of the Christian preachers was one of love for God and their neighbour, and equal marriage rights will not be tolerated by rational Australians."
Cut the bullshit and just admit that you have nothing but animosity toward us. Whenever I see you imbeciles screeching and protesting against equal rights, I don't see anything remotely resembling love coming from you.
"The motivation of the Christian preachers was one of love for God and their neighbour, and equal marriage rights will not be tolerated by rational Australians."
The editor certainly had fun with this one.
"The motivation of the Christian preachers was one of love for God and their neighbour , and equal marriage rights will not be tolerated by rational Australians."
God is love, so to hell with all them dykes and faggots!
Explain to me again how this makes sense?

Well if that's the case then they aren't exactly rational, now.
@meh
No need to apologise, pal. Fundie freaks such as those are a rarity in your country, as they are here in the UK.
Having met a few Australians, I can say that their religion is:
Good beer.
Everything else follows from that.
Australia's a damn good country. If only 95% of all the animals & gribbly things there weren't lethal, eh?!
But at least they're the majority of poisonous things there.
"As the march began, the Christian preachers led the way in protest, denouncing homosexuality and lesbianism as a crime against God for which those who practice will be damned and go to hell."
Matthew 7:1-2
Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you.
That line about you being judged? That doesn't mean that other people are going to base their opinion of you on your actions, dumbass. As I'm sure you're aware, only god can judge someone so you acting like a fuckup is going to come back on you when your god judges you . It also clearly states that the more severe your judgement of others, the more severe the judgement against you will be.
In other words, play nice and don't fuck with other people or it will come back to bite you in the ass.
Edit: Damn. The_L beat me to it!
"The motivation of the Christian preachers was one of love for God and their neighbour, and equal marriage rights will not be tolerated by rational Australians."
I'm pretty sure that "love thy neighbor as you do yourself" doesn't mean that you should attempt to strip basic human rights from them. I could be wrong though. You can ask Jesus to clear it up for you before he sends you to Hell.
Fucking morons.
>fundie
Hell fucking no.
Yea, well homophobes will be cast into a pit, and fucked in the ass for eternity by a minotaur. Also, the pit will suck too.
God's going to torch you for eternity for not repenting of something you didn't choose!
Oh, did I mention he loves you?
Ah yes, the Australian. Owned my Rupert Murdoch who, surprise surprise, also owns Fox News. The Australian is a right-wing conservative newspaper.
"The motivation of the Christian preachers was one of love for God and their neighbour, and equal marriage rights will not be tolerated by rational Australians."
How can anyone not see the contradiction and irony in that statement?
Good thing for you all Australia's government seems to have no one rational in it, huh?
Yeah, between this kind of thing and the horror stories of the government, I feel sorry for those living in Australia. Not to mention how it seems to be one big death trap.
The Christian God and his followers can really be compared to an alcoholic abusive father.
@#1290787, that's one of the best descriptions of the fundy god I've ever seen.
Hell does not exist, and anyway, the only thing the bible says is a requirement of getting into heaven is believing in Jesus as the son of god, so gay/lesbian Christians are good. And if you're there, I certainly would rather go to hell.
Why do you fuckers harass people who are different from you at their own rally? Can't you leave us alone on one fucking day? Harassing people for being different than the majority is NOT love of your neighbors, you prick. And having sex with someone one is attracted to is not a crime, in any sense of the word, unless one is brain damaged by their religion. Get over yourself - not everyone is attracted to the opposite sex.
Love for your neighbors. Unless they're a fags, of course, then they deserve to be harassed, terrorized and beaten without mercy.
@anon moose
denouncing homosexuality and lesbianism as a crime against God for which those who practice will be damned and go to hell.
I thought all heathens will be damned to hell anyway, gay or not. They can't even get their own religion right.
This quote is now irrelevant. I make it 16:00 GMT, which means several hours ago all of Australia suffered major earthquakes and calamities, and all the loving haters are finally with their God. The rest of the population, including all the ebil homos, will be dead by October. Sorted.
"Denouncing homosexuality and lesbianism as a crime against gawd for which....."
Well, why dont they ever protest other crimes against gawd? Like, dont people covet thy neighbors wife? Or...dont people lie (false witness). Why dont they protest those things?
"The motivation of the Christian preachers was one of love for God and their neighbour," - Bullshit.
"Equal marriage rights will not be tolerated by rational Australians." - Why the previous quote is Bullshit.
The thing about "rights" is that you need to define them in terms of other people's rights or else the term is meaningless. For example, I have the "right" to swing my fists around as much as I want. But, (and this is important) the right to swing my fists ends at the tip of your nose (because you have a right to be not socked in the face). You see how that works now ya zany fundie?
just what I'd expect from a country that censors anything with a controller to hell and back, and you guys think us americans are all neocon fundie nutjobs, hell I know more liberals than fundies and I live in UTAH!!!
@meh
A combined "1984"/"Hostel"-esque scenario, a homophobe fundie strapped to a chair, a face-cage - but instead of rats, funnel-web spiders.
That's all I ask.
>:D
Aaah Australia... been there twice, lovely country.
Unfortunately I've gathered it apperently has a fundie vermin infestation second only to the US. Fortunately I didn't meet any of them. Most of the ozzies I met where very nice and sane.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
