Greatest I am 0 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Are Western Churches and Governments promoting hate?Anti-Semitism is a hate crime. Should anti-Gay be? http://www.cnn.com/2010/POLITICS/11/08/min...+Most+Recent%29 Anti-Semitism is now considered a hate crime.We recognized that to discriminate or denigrate Jews, a sub group of our society, without just cause, as just plain wrong.Yet some Western Religions, notably Christian, Catholic and Muslims, as well as some state governments have laws and dogma that promote the denigration and discrimination of Gays, without just cause.They use this dogma and force of law to deny Gays the rights that the rest of us all enjoy as full participants in our various communities. Canada is leading the way in this and I offer them kudos for that and wonder what the other Western nations are waiting for to take the next step to a more moral position.Should governments treat religious intolerance in the same way as they handle Jewish anti-Semitism?Should anti-Gay states be chastised by the Federal Government and urged/forced to comply to the new reality the same way that they were in the days of segregation?Should the Gay movement start to target Churches and governments the way Churches and governments target them? I appreciate that Gays have better manners generally speaking than theists but when does enough become enough.In other words, should Western governments start to clean up their act before urging Eastern countries to clean up theirs?In other words, should Western governments start to clean up their act before urging Eastern countries to clean up theirs?Should gag orders or worse be brought against Churches and their hierarchies such as the two examples shown above?RegardsDL Link to post Share on other sites
