That was not very “Christian” of the owner to thank God for AIDS. It’s crap like that which makes all Christians look like fools.

Is this woman a Westboro Baptist supporter as well? Does she picket the funerals of American Soldiers? She sure seems like she would be up for it.

I’m with you on the AIDS comment. But the rest seemed pretty good.

It also may have been her lashing out in anger. People say and type things they regret later when they are angry and even Christians get angry.

The very first sentence of your post was a deliberate falsehood.

And it goes downhill from there.

remember what the bible says: “Lay down with dogs, get up with fleas”…..guess that’s why God invented aids…

Where in that statement does she "thank God" as you put it for AIDs? At worst, she is guilty of trying to put a human finger on the will of God (bad enough in itself).

Unlike the Westboro Baptists people, she is responding to an unwarranted attack on her morals and freedom of speech. While cringe worthy, at a certain level, her statement is a far cry from the BS you just spouted off about her.

By your logic, one can only deduce that you've already signed the change.org petition.

She didn’t thank God for aids. She remarked that perhaps the reason it came a out was due to His displeasure with homosexuality. I doubt this woman is a Westboro supporter.

Please point out where she thanked God for AIDS.

At any rate, she was angry. Have you ever said anything out of anger that may not have come out exactly the way you wanted it to?

BTW, Christians are allowed to get angry and yet they’re still Christians. Try to be perfect and you’ll fail.

For the most part, she said it well and I agree with her.

What do you think Rom 1:27 means?

and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error

I must have missed something here, Where did she thank God for Aids? I read she said “guess that’s why God invented aids”, There is a big difference in the two meanings.

That is how many senior citizens, 65 years and older, talk. They were raised in the era before political correctness, and they say unfashionable things about gays, blacks, immigrants, etc.

How old are you? Have you ever volunteered to work with senior citizens? You need to do so, in order to realize how elderly folk talk.

Did you watch the 1970s TV show, “All in the Family”, starring Carroll O’Conner as Archie Bunker?

Oh, come now. She didn't thank God for AIDS. It may be disquieting that God permits it to exist, but people are free to interpret the "why" of the world as they choose, aren't they?

The woman's view is not unique to Christians by any means. I had a friend who worked in a hospital in the early days of AIDS. The area where AIDS sufferers were treated was referred to by residents, interns, and nurses as the "WOG Ward," which stood for "Wrath of God." That's how mystifyingly terrible AIDS seemed. Today most of us politely paper over how indescribably awful the disease is, and distract ourselves from the fact that crazy people knowingly do the unnatural things that lead there.

The summation I remember is that God forgives every time, if we ask right; man forgives sometimes; and nature, never. I wish she were a lot more lenient.

WTF? Kind of a big leap of projection there.

That was the line that got to me as well. It was hateful and Christians who do that really don’t help reach others with the Gospel.

You're right. Everyone knows it was created by da Man to eradicate the blacks.

The owner did not "thank God" for aids. She did opine that God may have created aids as a punishment for homosexuality, which may well be the truth.

It's deceitful distortions like yours that make anti-Christian filth like you look like frauds and morons.

Are you a “Southern Poverty Law Center” supporter?

Can we agree that heterosexual monogamy is healthier than homosexual and healthier than promiscuity?

I could not find where anyone gave thanks to God for Aids.

Am I blind? Maybe it’s not me that’s blind.

Talking about driving someone crazy. When someone claims to be a Cristian yet accusing one of his own of such filth just blows my mind.

I'd agree with you but that's not what she wrote;

...guess that’s why God invented aids...

Big difference there.

Read!

She didn't "thank God for AIDS." It makes you look as bad as some liberal whiner when you inaccurately generalize like that.

Whe she said is nothing like that at all:

"I guess that's why God created AIDS."

Not the same words, not the same meaning, not the same thought.

I agree. There are ways of replying to the lesbian that does not make Christians look mean and ignorant.

Turning the tables on the homosexuals and politely refering to them as Christophobic will be far more effective. They cannot take what they dish out. They won’t know how to answer the “Christophobic” charge.
