My god have you watch sense8...



There is no issue with it but the problem is that the church ahouldnt be force into anything, just like a cake baker shouldnt be forced into anything... he has a right to follow his religious beliefs just as the gat couple has a right to do what they please

True. I believe the baker was kind of in thr wrong though, although he disagreed with it his job is to make cakes. It's discrimination to deny people a cake based on their sexuality.

Churches are not necessary are they? I'm sure people can find other ways to sort things out. It's quite a big thing for me to think about and the lines are blurred with these hot topics...

Churches are just ways to make money imo.
I dont think im a worse christian because I dont go to church, nor do I think someone else is better because they go.

I wouldn't say always, I have seen stories of pastors using it as a tax free way to collect funds. There are shady people in every corner.

No, The baker was forced to make a cake he had never made before. He was told to make a special cake for them. He already came out and said he would sell them any cake he all ready makes.

That's like going to a food store and demanding they fix your car because you are special. The food store doesn't do that business.

I stand corrected. I was not fully aware of those dynamics. Thanks for that info

I consider myself a very strong Christian but I don't believe churches are what makes a person a Christian. First...it's the belief that makes you one...second, is following the Christian way.

I do look at churches as a good guidance and learning experience though. Kind of like they polish you in areas where you may have slipped.

What? Have you not payed attention to the media nowadays? I think they need to be tougher on Muslims, after all the horrible things they have been doing. I'm sorry but you can't put Christians in the same category as them.

Some people are more accepting of ridicule or humour of their religion. I guess

There are general religious individuals. Extremism comes from every religion and needs to be stemmed out entirely.

I'll suck in the loss and move on. If only everyone is like that in a sense. Just know when to move on
