"Finally, for your rather strange idea that miracles are somehow linked to the amount of gay sexual gratification that is taking place would require that primitive Christianity was launched by gay sex, would it not?"

I agree. I'm seriously interested in what she has to say.
You don't think I'm a hypocrite, do you?
I don't think you are a hypocrite because you don't misrepresent your views. But what Jersey Girl is clearly referring to is when you make statements like "all you need is love" and then proceed to attempt to eviscerate those who have faith or belief in Christ.
You are completely consistent in your statements concerning religion, not hypocritical at all. But your statements about having love and being a good person are not seen in any of your posts concerning believers. We can all see your hatred of religion, especially Christianity. Where is your love of the Christian believer? Or the believing Mormon? Perhaps claiming that all you need is love is a bit hypocritical after all.
Thy mind, O man! if thou wilt lead a soul unto salvation, must stretch as high as the utmost heavens, and search into and contemplate the darkest abyss, and the broad expanse of eternity—thou must commune with God. - Joseph Smith

All you need is love, real love that can be shared with yourself and other real people. Jesus is an imaginary person. You can't love an imaginary person except in your imagination. Loving real people is completely different. Love is action and love is expressed between living, real, people.
You don't need religion to have love. You don't need Jehovah and his animal sacrifices to be loved and be loved. You don't need blood rituals made up by Moses to captivate and subjugate. You don't need the blood of a Jew to forgive and to forgive others. You don't need a crucifixion and blood sacrifice to be forgiven. Religion is not the foundation of love nor is the fantasy god of the Bible. Love is love and is shown without religion, without Jehovah, without Christ, and without all the rules made up by churches.

You responded to exactly none of his assertions with your misdirected pile of a post above.
Enjoy your monologue.

Here is JLHPROF's post again. In it he offers assertions and poses questions to you. You responded to exactly none of them.

Shulem, try thinking about it this way. From time to time, I've heard Christians use this phrase with reference to gay folks: I love the sinner but hate the sin. Do you think it's possible to love you but hate your homosexuality? Or is your homosexuality such an integral part of who you are that it's not possible to hate one and love the other?
Now, we all know that religious belief is more changeable than sexual orientation. But does that really matter? Could we not also say that Jersey Girl's religious faith is such an integral part of her that it is impossible to love one and hate the other? And if that's true, might it not be hypocritical to say that love is all one needs and to express hate for Jersey Girl's faith at the same time?

I said exactly what I felt inspired to say. I did not feel a need to respond to every facet of his argument but to state what I consider to be the core foundation to every good thing which is love.
This thread is simple. I don't need Jesus and neither do you. I'm a missionary in reverse testifying to others that the love of Jesus is not necessary for happiness and well being. The blood of Jesus is not necessary to forgive and be forgiven. The myth and dogma of religion and all the garbage it produced is outdated Dark Aged nonsense.

You might say I returned the favor. How many assertions have I made and questions posed in this thread and he has not responded to them?!
JLHPROF is a coward and has failed to render any kind of intelligent response to what I've said. If you can't see that, you're blind, or rather, you're a raving Christian that is mad because I've rattled you.
Yes, I've rattled you. You don't need Jesus Christ, Jersey Girl!
