I can't believe such simple words brought a tear to my eye.

@powerofthroughts That so-called "prick" won the Nobel Peace Prize, the Gandhi Peace Prize, the Sydney Peace Prize, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the Pacem in Terris Award, and the Albert Schweitzer Prize of Humanitarianism while you're here just wasting your life.

The white so called jew. Is of the seed of esau and not of Abraham. For the bible told me so.

[ocerg1111]

never forget that the same book of the bible also calls eating shellfish an "abomination," and I dont see any church groups condemning Red Lobsters.

Fantastic quotation amidst a sea of extremist, right-wing nutjobs taking this book literally when it suits their ends, and ignoring the portions that do not.

Finally!  A prominent and reasonable religious stance on homosexuality.

[Aaberg123]

Sucks that he, according to YOUR book, calls them an abomination. Moron.

@Aaberg123 watch the entire documentary so you can see what they say about taking the bible literally, you being religious or atheist. there will be an explanation about how the word "abomination" is not meant to mean something "disgusting" but only "unnatural", and also that "unnatural" was not the opposite of "natural", but the opposite of "not expected", which, finally, meant that the jewish community back in that time needed men to get involved with women, so that the "culture" could go on.

@Aaberg123 It calls it תֹּועֵבָה (To'evah) which does NOT mean abomination as an intrinsic evil. The same hebrew word is used in many other contexts where it is quite clear that it doesn't mean what we would call 'abominable'.

This is EXACTLY how I see things.
