Funnily enough General Conference is achieving a similar result but with massively higher numbers of people.

This is quite frankly one of the lamer responses. Do you tell Jews about their silly hats and their goofy prayer towels?

Then try to imagine how those statements would make your non-numb Mormon friends and family feel, and then you might be able to understand why it's inappropriate to make similar arguments about gay people.

And that reality is obvious because these positions is why pedophilia is a protected class now in Greece.
The article that was erroneous, that you posted, doesn't stated they are a protected class even if it wasn't in error. It stated classifications for disabilities. "Protected class" is term used in the United States which designates classes that cannot be targeted for discrimination and harassment in a legal defintion. In the U.S. and Greece a company can certainly choose not to hire a pedophile because they are a pedophile - you cannot do the same because of someones sexual orientation that makes homosexuals a protected class.
You are using an article that has nothing to do with what you said in the first place, and which has been stated to be erroneous by the article I posted and still claiming some kind of justification for what you wrote. What is wrong with you?

Interestingly the symbols of Jewish faith are sacred but not secret, go figure...

Reading comprehension is a good thing. I said it could LEAD. Are you familiar with the term "lead"?

They certainly don't have ones that make enquiry into what type of panties you have on.

Ok so lets not ever talk about it. The homosexual community gets their way and no one else has a say. That will set a great precident teaching other groups they just have to emotionally bully their critics into silence.

Don't you know? Panties are *just like* hats and shawls.
