Why do Christians hate Gay people so much?
407355
In my opinion, from personal experience, having grown up in a christian church before following a wiccan path, the majority of christians have proven to be THE most judgemental, condeming, hypocritical, stone throwing and unmerciful lot I have ever encountered. While they preach the bible it would seem they forget an important thing, do not judge lest ye be judged and save judgement day for the almighty father. Love thy neighbor as thyself, love unconditionally, and he without sin may cast the first stone. We are all sinners, as only the christ is pure, so there is none who may cast the stone but they do it all the time with the excuse that the bible says...forgetting they are not to judge but should love. While I understand it is hard to love everyone then running a close second is tolerance. But tolerance is seldom seen in this religious sect as well, no wander I left christianity. I have met several gay people, and they are open, loving and have immense hearts, the christians could learn a thing or two from them if they would open the passages of their narrow minds and turn their negative gloomy outlook into a postive acceptance.

Religious people are not "afraid" of homosexuality, they fear the creator, the one who has power over all things and the one who deals out punishment in the hereafter. Those who choose not to engage in things they or their religion deems as sinful acts only fear the one who will judge them for their good and bad deeds when this life is over. Fear of the things that people choose to do with their own lives has nothing to do with it.

AMEN SISTER!!!!\nI'm not a religious guru myself, and I'm very tired of the gay bashing, but I do recall many people saying that if you hate upon others or something like that, that that's a sin as well...i'm not sure I don't read the Bible...\n\nI get really offended with this bullshizzle about that i'm going to hell because i'm a lesbian...well you know what? The people whom are trying to convert are the real sinners, and God does love all of his children...\n\nSo again, Thank you for the psudo question...

the reason people are against gays/lesbians are the fact that they do not fit the social norm and they are not hetero like everyone else on this plant or so they think and also they find the sexual acts disqusting mainly religion is a big factor in this because we are taught it is not natural....

Some Christians are actually respectful and secure in their faith.\n\nAs such, they don't see the need to preach to "sinners."  They're just fine with their beliefs and don't need to be obnoxious to others.\n\nGod loves everyone, which means he loves the homosexuals.  If you love everyone, you would choose to let them come to their own decision rather than drive them away by preaching to them.\n\nI've seen the gay category, and I don't see these people that are hurting.  Well, I've seen plenty of jerks go in there.

the Bible condemns a lot of things, including lusting, stealing, etc.I will never understand why my fellow "christians" pick homosexuality as the be all end all sin.

As a christian, I have a distaste for homosexuality, but that does not mean that I should hate you. Jesus loves everyone, even those who do not follow in his path. I don't take homophobia as a bad thing, in a society the majority will naturally be heterosexual, making homosexuality a deviancy. It's just natural for a civilization to be wary of that.\nBut going back to your beliefs that the christians "hide" behind the bible, we don't. The bible defines our beliefs and therefore we must follow them to the best of our abilities. That includes disapproval of homosexuality. I'm sorry that you've been burdoned with this, just know that Jesus' love really is unconditional.

They believe they are doing acts of freedom and passion. But morally, they are doing something that is wrong. I am not against a homosexual person; I am, however, against their acts of immorality.\n\nAs in the Bible, love the sinner but hate the sin. I can love the person but hate what they do in their life.

Because we ARE gay? Why do people hate us, is it the fact that they can't stop poking their big fat noses into other people's sexual business? Pathetic...

I think there are a lot of Christians who have been taught to hate themselves and their God given sexual orientation, and it hurts not only them, but their families.  I pray constantly that God will free people from the bondage of lies that keep them closeted.  Someday, homphobia will seem as outdated as racism, and probably take twice as long to shake off.

You obviously never heard the stories of Jesus accepting sinners, lepers and pagans when Jews of his time shunned and out casted these people.  Do you bash Christianity because it teaches that being gay is wrong or are you just not knowledgeable about Christianity?  It sounds like you're bashing Christians.

Because they reject God, not necessarily us. But Jesus did say that "those who hate me will hate you also". I think it's sinful nature to hate the idea of an almighty God that is gonna judge those who don't repent.

Let me set this up. I am a heterosexual father and grandfather. I am a conservative Christian. I object to your language and what can only be described as your blind hatred. \n\nYour question is NOT worthy of discussion. It is only worthy of disdain. You have given the progressive humanists another reason to say that Fundamentalist Christians are bigots and homophobes.

Youre absolutely correct. Not one Christian pays any attention to THAT PART of the Bible anymore. Unless, of course, they feel like bagging on a gay person. Then they reach out with open arms to embrace their hateful Bible as PROOF that God hates gay people.....when in reality, God hates everyone that isnt a Jew. \n\nHey, dont blame me - its all written in the Bible!
