So what exacly is a difference between

"we should kill all the studmuffins" and "my god tells me we should kill all the studmuffins" ?

As far as I can tell, it is only lack of balls to stand by your own convictions and using God as an excuse.

Yes, along with anyone else he chooses to insult. We have this little thing here called the constitution that tells us it's OK to speak our minds, even if it offends someone. Provided he doesn't incite anyone to cause gays harm, of course.

We could learn a thing or two from Sweden in this regard. Bill Cosby should be locked up for his non pc rhetoric.

Outside of a church he's free to say what ever he wants but when giving a sermon in church priest should keep his own agenda hidden.
It's not his platform; he's just a guest in that house.

When I kept speaches to our employees I couldn't say some things because they weren't in line with company's policy.
Hopefully that priest learns to do the same.

Here in the US Staga the state is kept out of the church. Ministers are usually allowed to produce their own sermons and if the congregation doesn't like them they can leave or vote him out of the position.

So everything is really possible in US; you can even use Churches for spreading hatred and bigotry. Kinda like in Rwanda where several "good christians" (Bishops, Chaplains, Pastors) are now accused of genocide of 800000 humans.
These "Good Christians" were using also churches for recruiting new participants to fulfill their "mission"; What would be more powerful way to turn one part of people against other than use that age old slogan "God's Will".

Anyways fck that priest; I hope some studmuffin takes care of that priest.

Staga, I'm just curious... are you gay? Not meaning to offend, just really want to know.

I guess from now on he should just have the state write his sermon for him, after all ya never know who or what toes you might step on.

Staga,

If you stay something at your place of work that offends someone, as you used for an example, do the police come to your work and arrest you? Would the court prosecute you? Just for saying something someone else might find offensive?

If so, I am glad I am not living there.

The problem is the law. We may have to add Sweden to our list of countries in need of liberation. Viva la Revolucion!

Nope Mark, I'm a 100% hetero; It's just not my cup of tea.
Well I was in a restaurant one which was known also as a meeting point of gays thought I didn't know that then; I used my best pickup lines for a very good looking girl in a bar before she told me I was in "gay side" of that bar... and she was one of them....

IMHO if someone is gay it's his own business; I got enough problems myself so caring about other people's sexual habits is wasting of time. If he or she is adult then go ahead; I couldn't care less.

Dago; If I would be spreading hatred, bigotry or racist thoughts as a representative of the company I would get booted faster than I could say "Sieg Heil".
In my previous job I had to use quite hard procedure when a skinhead begun to give speeches in our stockyard.
Guy got two choices; Either take payoff with clean papers or we would give him one with explanation why we couldn't keep guy like that in a company with full of people with different skincolours, religions and backgrounds.

So Staga you really think state control of religion is a good idea? If religious your beliefs offend people, the government can put you in jail?

If the same happened to any preacher here in America, it would be hypocritical of any liberal to stand by without protest.

Don't worry, Storch, I'm sure you will make excellent lion scat.
