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 know the question sounds stupid but I wasn't a saint myself with other past gfs either during my younger years. I think that's part of the reason I guess I'm being more lenient and trying to see if it can be worked out.

In the past, I would either dump a girl just to sleep with another one, party too much, made a girl live with me with false hopes about starting a family and one time did cheated on an ex girlfriend. When she found out, I realized what it felt to see a person in tears and asking why countless times. I never begged to be take back but said she deserved better.

I changed my ways by late 2016 and take things more serious now. I didn't find out. She confessed in the evening of that same day it happened and has been losing sleep over it. So do I take her back? I have to admit this is the first time I've ever had a girlfriend cheat on me. It's also my first time I'm in the position to grant forgiveness.
