Guys, may I remind you that it is 2019.

You might want to remind the many various gods of that. They haven't changed their stance, so far as anyone knows.

...or maybe the new testament

When did he say that?

It's all nonsense of course, and at best was written several hundred years after someone called Christ possibly lived and died.  But anyway.

Romans 14

Quote

You, then, why do you judge your brother or sister ? Or why do you treat them with contempt? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat. 

11 It is written: “ ‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord, ‘every knee will bow before me; every tongue will acknowledge God.’ ” 

12 So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God. 

13 Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister. 

14 I am convinced, being fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean in itself.

 

 

 

Supposedly Christianity is big on forgiveness and acceptance, except when it's being big on bigotry, sexism and judging.

Can an imaginary friend in the sky be said to have a stance?

Don't turn this into one of your usual Christian bashing threads when that's not the topic of discussion

Pointing out inconsistencies in a religion isn’t ‘bashing’ it, is called free thinking.

Atheist proselytising more like. 

 

Some of the most homophobic bigots I've ever met have been atheists.

Conveniently forgetting that it's not the topic of discussion regardless

So everyone has to be a brainwashed robot and hold the same views ?

Cannot abide this woman, she is a complete twonkess. But whatever has happened to " I Disapprove of What You Say, But I Will Defend to the Death Your Right to Say It ".  Has this saying now been consigned to History, never to be mentioned again?. Do we all have to think and say the same in 2019.
