I have decided there must be a debate class for right wing Christians, and rule number one in that class is, "when all else fails, threaten hellfire."

I've been engaged in a spirited debate on Topix.com with one of these idiots. The thread started in the comments about a news story that stated if states would recognize gay marriage, it would cause a boost to their economies.

Of course, this one idiot had to jump in there with her rabble-rousing Christian bullshit about how homosexuality was against God's will, etc etc etc. She claims gay people make the choice to be gay.

Well, I shouldn't have, but I couldn't help it. So I jumped in with my comments that she was an idiot for saying that gay people chose that life. I suggested that we choose the life just like breeders choose their lives.

She responded about how wrong I was, and I was choosing to live a lie, and that there were many organizations that would help me, and that it was never too late to change UNTIL I TOOK MY LAST BREATH. There it is. The infamous, "you're going to Hell" warning that is supposed to scare me straight.

Oooh, I'm shaking in my boots lady. Fearful of eternal damnation in a place for which there is not one shred of evidence that it exists. And even it it does exist, why should I fear it? Jesus gave two commandments. Love God and love your neighbor. There was nothing in there about not loving another man.

And, the big question is, why is this woman hanging out in gay forums? Why do right-wing Christians do that? I say to her, "get thee to a nunnery."
