So, if you believe that, why are you choosing to be an oppressor? There is only one way to truly conquer oppression, and it isn't with trying to win via punishing or oppressing those who disagree with you. Look at the life of Jesus.
It is not oppression to stop people discriminating against those who don't deserve it.
So when we see children being killed in the streets we should do nothing?

what I wrote a few posts back. This isn't a debating game to me.
I often design websites for people. If a person came to me, wanting me to provide them with a website that is an activist gay website, and I refused, what should my punishment be Dan?
Under the anti discrimination laws you could be charged and rightfully so.

But you could just give no reason for turning it down and that would be acceptable.
Notwithstanding I don't see any discrimination against a person, you'd consider my non-compliance to create an activist gay website as discrimination, would have me charged, "

Thanks Dan, for showing where you stand. But, I must say I'm quite repulsed and offended that you'd have me (and other Christians and people) punished for holding to their beliefs.
How ironic that you claim to be Christian, and yet would join the world in oppressing of Christians.
If you can't see how extreme your views are, then here I rest.
