      If that's true, it's sad and maddening of course.

      But indeed the article says he's sorry.  One can assume he's ashamed of something---either getting caught or else ashamed of his actual behavior.
      That's something many people have none of---shame for being involved in perversion.
      That shame leads to repentance if one is willing to do so.  And that's the only salvation any person has.

        This explains why christians are such criminals and behave so badly. They know there is no everlasting judgement as long as they are ashamed afterwards.

        I was wondering why Christians did not need to follow the rules they so loudly shout about.

        Thank you for clearing that up.

        Do you have to wait to be ashamed of preaching against the word and being ian adulteress? Is it OK to go on doing that even though you know it is a sin  and then be ashamed later?

        What is the cutoff point? Do you have to be ashamed already or only when you get caught and it is in the newspapers? I must admit - I like the sound of your religion more and more Brenda.

        "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law as long as you are ashamed when caught."

        Liking it a lot. Where do I sign up?

          Nicely put Mark.. Christians today are really complete fcuk-ups..

          What annoys me the most is those that preach against something like homosexuality and in the end you find out they've been homosexuals for a gazzilion years!

          Christians should learn to understand that its not their words that people listen to.. it's their actions that people see. I believe the book of James puts that very clearly that "be yea doers of the word and not hearers only"

          Most Christians today are just hearers and hypocrites and thank God he doesn't judge us according to our sins smile

      So do we know for sure WHY he was at that club?  Does he actually have sex with other men or was he just looking to get the gay vote?  Maybe he decided their votes count, too.  Just like all those people out there who don't give a crap about illegal aliens because they can personally make money from them.

    I just love pro-family, Chritian, conservative hypocrites. They are so much fun to watch get caught. In the men's room, in Argentina, in gay bars.

    It's why they have a God that doesn't require anything but believing in him to be saved. If they had to earn it, they'd fail miserably. All this guy has to say is I Believe, I'm Sorry and his God says okay. And the Christian followers go along....

    I used to love going into gay bars back in Glasgow. If you bumped into someone on the way to the loo or when making your way through a crowd, the gay contingent always said sorry or graciously accepted your apology. In a straight bar you got growled at with "watch where you effen going!"
    I liked the atmosphere, it was much more relaxed. and p.s. I'm a straight as they come.

        No you're right. I wouldn't be so two-faced as to say one thing in public and do another in private. But then all politicians are the same. That's why we hate them so much - none of them deserves our vote especially after the expenses scandal.

      Nope, nor do I understand where this christian movement came from. There are plenty christian churches in the UK and none of them are gay-bashers, as far as I'm aware. They all accept people for what they are. Even Spain, a Catholic country, allow gay marriages and you never hear of gay-bashing here; the people are tolerant of everything - laid back - when I say everything I obviously don't mean everything - like they hate pedophiles and rapists and murderers and the like - but ordinary people going about their business and not bothering anyone else, no probs.

            It's called "effortless virtue." It's easy to bash gay people when it doesn't require any change in your own behavior.

            Quite a bit more difficult to follow Christianity's other commandments to take care of the poor, love everyone, etc.

          Hehe that's true, one of the first questions my future american inlaws asked was what denomination of Christian I was, they did not even conceive that I might not be religious.

          Over here in the UK and a fair amount of Europe, religion is much more of a background thing. I can't speak for the entirity of america, since my view is still fairly limited, but even in the liberal areas the religious intolerance seems just a little bit stronger than I am used to, it kinda freaks me out a little bit!

              No, the intolerance comes in where I actually have to pretend to be religious to be accepted by her grandparents, just like my fiancée has to pretend to be religious if she wants anything to do her grandparents as well.

              That is true intolerance. I don't care if they are religious, but they care if I am not religious.

    To be honest the problem is not with the hypocritical gays who promote anti-gay bills, the problem is with those who would have never let them get to the position they are in if they were openly gay. The problem is that in many systems the people who don't let the gays in to power, are the voters.

    He will probably be like that minister who was caught in a gay affair (can't remember his name) but his wife has forgiven him and he has said he is not now or has never been gay so all is forgotten now...

    However, if he were a liberal politician people would still be calling for his head.

    It is fine to be a gay politician but not admitting it to the voters out of fear of reprisal, it is another thing when you are constantly condemning gays and denying them rights.

          Not in the slightest. I am pointing out that you are in no position to be pointing the finger at anyone.

          I have no interest in saving you whatsoever. But people who go around preaching when they are not perfect invariably cause srife and arguments.

          As you do.

          So - I am attempting to get you to be a genuine christian instead of a hypocrite in the hope that if I can get enough of you to be so - the world will become a better place.

          Make sense?

          As an example - The Arch Boishop of Canterbury has been preaching a LOT about the "ills of secular greed" and the need to "invest ethically".

          The CoE just recently lost £60 million in a dodgy real estate deal that involved illegally evicting rent controlled tenants from their homes in NYC.

          I guess the reason I am so against your religion is that it is very much a "do as I say, not as I do" religion. Disgusting really and has caused 1800 years of wars.

          Take yourself as another example.

          Publicly claiming to be scared of those who go against the Word - and doing so yourself. Defending yourself all the while. Hypocrites, Brenda - Hypocrites. Jeebus had a few words to say about them also if I recall. wink

            I fear for the morality of this nation as a whole and I fear for the souls of innocents individually who are being led astray by the liberal mindset.


            Yes, it makes sense----you don't care about my soul,  you just want to tell me how to be something that you yourself have no interest in being.

    What I'm asking is WHY?
    WHY do you want me to stop being what you perceive as a hypocrite?   That's my question.
    You said the world would be a better place.   How would it be a better place?
    You said I'm not perfect.  I agree!   How would the world be a better place if I were perfect??   Jesus was perfect,  and yet you refuse to listen to Him.    I am "perfect" in Him because I'm a sinner saved by His grace.
    What is it you're looking for, Mark?  Perfection?  Then you've missed out on it so far, because you ignore the One who is Perfect.

      Mark Knowlesposted 14 years agoin reply to this

      LOLOL

      The world would be a better place if you practiced what you preached.

      But - it seems that is not necessary. You can go around demonstrating "the liberal mindset" by getting a divorce and living in adultery.

      Yet you feel you are qualified to preach out loud that others should not do things that you percieve to be the "liberal mindset" and corrupting others.

      See how this is hypocrisy and people will not be able to take what you say seriously - because you do not follow the rules you preach about?

      And you do not understand why this causes strife and wars? sad

      So - when you tell me I am missing out on perfection - I cannot believe you because you are such a hypocrite. See? wink

    He's a politician. He has to say what the voters want to hear to keep his job whether he holds the same beliefs or not.

      We do have a few openly gay politicians in the U.S., most notably Congressman Barney Frank from Massachusetts, chairman of the House Financial Services Committee. There are several openly gay mayors also. However, in many states and jurisdictions (Red states)being openly gay would mean the odds of getting elected near zero.

    I thought this article was hilarious (I am in no way connected with the author and get no sort of kickback!): Top Five Republican Gay Sex Scandals

    It's a list of the top 5 only in 2007... Of course, since then, there have been dozens more.

    The intro is hilarious:
    "It’s gone past ridiculous and straight to the absurd. At this point, it appears your average public restroom has more gay Republicans in it than clean handtowels. The “holier-than-thou” party has spent an awful lot of time on their knees this past year, but they haven’t been doing a lot of praying." lol

      Yes. I thought I made it clear that I think hypocrites  are a bad thing and cause conflict and violence wheresoever they go. Was I not clear Brenda? I am not a big fan of deliberately obtuse either. I find it dishonest.

      I will try and be more clear in future. wink

    If I was a male republican, who actually wasn't gay, I don't think I'd visit the men's restroom at any republican conventions.

      If Barney Frank got caught in the men's restaurant with his pants down and his **** in another guy's mouth, nobody would blink an eye, because Barney Frank has been out for years and doesn't pretend to be something he isn't.

      But you can't go around preaching about "family values" and the evils of gay marriage and expect people to let it slide when you get caught in that situation. It's the hypocrisy people are scoffing at, not the orientation.

        its not the hypocrisy its that a conservative got caught doing something wrong in your eyes

        the truth is hypocrisy is a virtue in dc

        and the republicans have not cornered the market on that virtue

        not by a long shot

    Hypocrisy like denying rights to people and condemning them for how they lead their lives and lets not forget the DUI.

    And I'm not a Democrat.

      how does one man deny rights to many people 

      what about the dui

      is that a sign of his lack of morals or a mistake that 1000s of people make everyday

      maybe youre right

      we should shoot him to make an example of him

    DUI is illegal regardless of who you are. It would be just the same if a Democrat who condemned gays was caught coming out of a gay bar and arrested for DUI.

    i read the original article but not all 7 pages of responses..theoretically, a politicians vote should reflect their constituency's wishes not their own personal beliefs.

    I also despise hypocrisy and limitations on personal freedoms but I would equally despise an elected official who did not represent the interests of those who elected them

    note: I know nothing about this individuals political base
