I used to be on Yahoo Answers, and once complained about free speech violation, and someone told me, "They have the right to violate it because it's a private organization."

That may be true, but the platform serves the public.

I didn't know originally that the Constitution only protects your rights within GOVERNMENT run institutions, though in reality is doesn't even do THAT. *cough cough Public Schools.

So my question to YOU is, should private businesses that are used by the public, ESPECIALLY social media be forced to abide by the Constitution?


Apparently Trump is trying to do exactly that

The actual post in my opinion is not specifically anti-gay. It is anti-sin. Because he is right. The Bible specifically says;

"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is external life through Christ Jesus."

I don't know much about Australia. And perhaps things work differently over there. But I don't think it is fair and certainly in American society, he would not be disciplined or even fined. Because that is considered to be freedom of religion.

His post;

"drunks, homosexuals, adulterers, liars, fornicators, thieves, atheists and idolaters," reading underneath, "Hell awaits you."

So if he was in America, he was already saying that Clinton, Trump, Newt Gringrich, Bill Barr, etc. were all going to hell if they did not repent. In the Bible, homosexuality is a sin. Along with all the other sins. The Bible says specifically that one must repent and ask for forgiveness. This isn't as problematic at Freedom of Speech. He didn't say something to just to insult people. He didn't specifically target gays. He didn't cite some conspiracy theory. This is actual text from the Bible. This is from several passages. It isn't something he made up.

So I just wanted to show folks here at GaG, the difference. But the larger question is, at what point does Freedom of Religion end? I would say if YOU CLAIM your religion sanctions violence and the murder of other people, then you can't be in a free society. You physically need to relocate.

I get questioned a lot on the dating apps because they are certain individuals in a certain country who use pictures of movie stars and they don't use their real photo. Mind you again, I am born and raised here, and I am treated differently because of the actions of some

Why is that?

NOTE: They are others who do the same thing in other parts of the world, but being in many chat rooms most of my life (AOL Chat, Yahoo Chat, ICQ, IRC, Pagoo, Powwow,) the prevalent people from overseas.

I am not trying to cause a firestorm or insult anyone. I just don't do the preconceived notions
