Comments on: Ray Comfort’s Homophobia http://pulltheplugonignorance.com/2009/12/ray-comforts-homophobia/ On the matters of faiths, beliefs, sciences and worldviews.

First, I tolerate Ray's beliefs, so far as to allow him to express them. I wouldn't censor his blog even if I could, and I freely and openly defend anyone's right to say whatever they want on the internet. That is why I don't moderate my comments (which Ray does). So yes, I do tolerate his beliefs. I just won't sit quiet and listen. It's not intolerant to be critical of someone or their beliefs. Second, I'm not "hating" anything. Ok, maybe I do hate organized religion for all the hurt and evil they represent, both in modern times and throughout history. It is due to religion, and religious beliefs alone, that people are being burned and tortured as "witches" in Africa right now. That's just ONE example of the horrors for which I hate religion. Oh, and guess what: those people in Africa are Christians. Wouldn't you know... Your turn, my "friend". Well, my “friend”, you’ve got a few things backwards.

Interesting statement. Will YOU tolerate Ray's beliefs? I thought not (as evidence of your entire blog dedicated to him). Nice try though. You could believe or not believe and go on your way but you find it necessary to unknowingly PROVE the very bible and ideas you hate by hating them and making it your point to be actively against them. Interesting indeed my friend. What Ray sees as a decline in moral integrity is the fact that homosexuality is more and more tolerated (and, as we all know, tolerance has no place in Christianity!).
