What a horrible world when you have to pick and choose every word for fear that when you describe evil you may be jailed for hating it.

If a man cannot speak against a practice that reduces the life expectancy of people by 30 years, but can be jailed for smoking a cigarette because it might reduce the life expectancy of someone in the room somehow by somewhat, freedom is a concept long lost.

The law has become a protector of acts of evil, while at the same time a persecutor. All the while, the most offensive rule by the right to not be offended?!

The Homosexuals right to sodomy is protected as a "freedom" by removing the right to speak against it. Somehow the right of men to speak is more common to mankind than the drive to have intestinal sex.

This reduces freedom to the lowest common denominator, which to all is an odious price to pay, but the hopelessly addicted pervert is happy because his right to a fix is secured.

The ideas of the intercourse of philosophy is abandoned for the right of intercourse with the object of your fantasy. For those who live at the basest levels of gratification, it is a fair trade, but for those who the use of their minds is more satisfying than the use of their sexual organs it is the lowering of the sights of men from the Stars, to the gutter.

All enforced by law.

Homosexuals are not fighting for the right to be homosexual, but for the right of not being told is is a bad thing to do, we are not ruled now by freedom but by the fear of offense.
Well, I am offended at the spread of Aids, the high rate of child molestation by homosexuals, the flaunting of accepted sexual mores in public and by the high cost to society cleaning up after the mess that homosexuality causes in its wake. If you want to be a homosexual, that is your choice, but if you want to dictate to society how it must agree with you that is not your choice it is society's. Sorry, but the Homosexual Nazi is the rule, not the joke of the day. And to remove mans right to speak his mind so your conscience is not impinged upon will not silence it, nor change the fact that you will die from your actions, on average, 30 years before your fellows. You may outlaw dissension, but you can not outlaw cause and effect.

You of course are correct. My post #48 was merely asking the question if the pastor was in effect inciting violence, instead of simply condemning the evil of homosexuality. Evidently, he was not intending on inciting violence. Regardless, the Swedish law is frightening, and we should pray that our 200 year legal tradition of freedom of speech will prevent such laws from being enacted here.

I should mention that in my profile, I happen to say what I believe about homosexuality. I don't know if that would get me in trouble in Sweden or not!
