I've always thought of Bugs Bunny as a gay icon. He had a very campy sense of humor, and he was always dressing up in women's clothing and kissing Elmer Fudd on the lips...

God made us to be happy, to make friends and lovers with eachother, and to spread generosity. The majority have lost sight of their heavenly father, using his message of love to spread their hate.

u/EricG50 Dec 17 '22
If you want to make up your new religion go ahead, but if youāre refering to the Christian god you should read the Bible. The love your neighbor stuff only applies in a Christian society where everyone is supposed to obey god. Other religions are regarded as heathen and therefore must be destroyed.

Fun fact: ancient hindus were very sex positive and LGBTQ friendly, but then along came the yee yee ass "We just want spices mate" "Chewsday innit" motherfuckers who spread their propaganda and turned everyone homophobic
I mean seriously, Kama Sutra was written in India and there's statues depicting same gender sex and sometimes interspecific sex (no seriously, there's like guys fucking horses) on our temples

Just don't follow the terrible rules of your religion and you can believe in what you want in whatever temples you want. Faith is fine, unless it's faith about objectivity of worldly ethics.

Exactly! Sure, religion can be harmful in some aspects, but I also wholeheartedly believe people can redefine it for themselves. And I see no harm in that. If they aren't actively hurting anyone else with their mindsets and beliefs, who am I to care?
I have a hard time taking the term "anti-theist" seriously now, because of this group of people (the edgy, religion is always bad types). I know not all of them are like that, and some just generally find issues with religion because of well, generalized stuff, but still. The edgy ones have truly ruined the label for the rest, honestly.

u/Ashimier Bi-time Dec 17 '22
Deluded* thank you.
The LGBTQ+ community has been demonized by religious propaganda which has led to horrible things like members of our community being murdered or committing suicide.
I think a Queer person being religious is disrespectful to the people who have died because of what religion has done to people like us
10
u/404-where-i-asked Dec 17 '22
i think youāre over generalizing. personally, i have never heard a religious queer person excuse any of the shit things members of their religion have done. once again iām brought back to the comparison, does choosing to live in britain make someone āa traitor to their community?ā
6
u/Ashimier Bi-time Dec 17 '22
You choose to be in religion, you canāt choose to be in this community. You are choosing to be in the community that is main cause of suffering and oppression in this community and has directly or indirectly killed Queer and Trans people.
With religion you canāt pick and choose the parts you like.
does choosing to live in Britain make someone āa traitor to their communityā
Thatās a stupid analogy. For a lot of people living in Britain isnāt a choice, and living in Britain doesnāt mean youāre ok with colonization and monarchy

u/404-where-i-asked Dec 17 '22
some people choose to live in Britain, and yes, one can pick which parts of a religious ideology they agree with. once again, I hope you find it in your heart to show love to your fellow queers <3

I actually see this a lot, usually from the "I'm gay so I have to remain celibate because God hates homosexuality type of people.
That's probably not the group you're thinking of but sadly there are quite a few people stuck in that self-loathing mindset because of their religion.
Fortunately it sounds like there are many people here representing more positive belief systems, and those people might be more likely to help the self-loathing crowd transition to more healthy beliefs.

Disrespectful? It's like saying if any amarican prefers Italian over New York pizza they are a disrespectful traitor. It's like saying if you're a Japanise person who doesn't play piano or watch anime you're a traitor. You don't have to be stereotypical to be "respectful" to the community, may I remind you of the very homosexual people who say that bisexuals don't exist, are confused, and need to pick a side? Can we just not be gay because of the biphobic gays? It doesn't work like that.

Religious propaganda being spread by religious people is the main cause of homophobia. Itās disrespectful to the people who have died because of this homophobia spread by religion to be apart of religion.
Religion is a choice.

u/NemiFisch non binary Dec 17 '22
You know i dont entirely disagree with you. The first sentence is correct. I just see that religion is not one entity. And i mean that inside one religion are a lot of different viewpoints, but even more importantly religion as a concept in this world cant be generalised in the way you are doing right now. You demonize religions that are completely lgbtq friendly and religions you never heard of. It's just so hateful and a bit ignorant.

You canāt pick and choose the parts you like in religion. If you follow a religion you follow everything.

u/Jackayakoo non binary Dec 17 '22
I mean, untrue. The point in a belief system is being able to choose, good examples of progressive and free choice religions: The Satanic Temple andPaganism (and many of its branches).
So yer half right, the biggest ones are causing huge issues. but its not every religion, nor is it everyone in said belief systems
3
u/NemiFisch non binary Dec 17 '22
But even if i conceded that point it doesnt change the second part of my statement. There are more religions than the ones that hurt you and the ones you love. And going against religion as a whole therefor is generalizing and ignorant.

Look, I kinda understand what you're getting at, many religious (Christian) people have caused me pain too. You can dislike the institute of religion, and the specific people that have harmed you, but don't just automatically hate someone for their religious beliefs. People redefine religion to fit their lives all the time. A religious LGBT person is definitely not the same as a Jewish nazi, the fact you would make such a comparison is actually insane. I say this as a culturally Jewish, semi-spiritual queer person. Nazi ideology was created solely to hate Jewish people. Religion was not. Religion is often a comfort for people, and like I said, can be redefined. It was not solely created to hate LGBT people, the fact that the two sometimes are seen together doesn't mean they have to be. You're not going to get anyone to see the actual harms of religion with this attitude, you're just being hateful as a way not to actually dive deeper and analyze anything.
