The unconfirmed allegation is raising concerns that the coffee chain is the latest corporation to cave to far-right attacks on LGBTQ people.

“Normal” people aren’t bigots who go around saying that companies who dare to acknowledge the basic fact gay or trans people exist in the world, as ‘Sexual immortality getting shoved down our throats’.

It’s hateful religious crap like you are spreading right now that gets shoved down our throats more than anything else, that’s the real bullshit right there.

[–] 10A@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (6 children)

You misunderstand. What I said is not hateful, at all. Of course homosexuals exist, just like thieves, murderers, and practitioners of every other sin exist. Everyone acknowledges that. The issue is whether we repent for our sins and do God's will, or take pride in our sins and reject God. Pride itself is a sin (and some say it's the root of all other sins). That makes pride in sin a compound sin. The so-called "pride decorations" in this article are all about pride in sin (specifically the sexual immorality type). While the far-left activists think that's wonderful, and want to call everyone "hateful" and a "bigot" if we disagree, the truth is I expressed neither hatred nor bigotry. I hope we call all come to Christ, and the first step for many is to eliminate all these repugnant "pride decorations".

God isn’t real, you simpleton.

[–] 10A@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Our Creator is most certainly verifiably real. What's truly amazing is that you can deny Him, and you can insult me for loving Him, and you can go on behaving like that for years and years, yet He will still love you and He will still be eager to forgive you.

There definitely is a god, and she just spoke to me that you’re an asshole and you’re going to Tartarus when you die.

Can you relax? Having your beliefs is one thing, but equating gay people to thieves and murderers is another. Most people from the time they are born have had their sexual attractions set in stone. Most men are attracted to women and vice versa. It is literally the same way for gay people.

[–] 10A@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Stop sexualizing children! There is no "gay gene". (Follow the science, or don't you like that idea anymore) Sex is strictly reserved for a grown man and woman who are joined in holy matrimony. Children are not sexual, even slightly, until puberty.

[–] QHC@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nobody mentioned children and sexuality in the same sentence until you did.

Quoting @AnakinSandlover from above:

Most people from the time they are born have had their sexual attractions set in stone.

[–] HaleyHalcyon@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Most people are born with teeth. That doesn’t mean that babies have teeth, nor that kids have adult teeth.

Some people start feeling attraction at a very young age. It may not be sexual but the attraction is there. I'm a straight man and I've literally found girls to be beautiful for as long as I can remember.

[–] QHC@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

You were being influenced by social norms long before you were old enough to form memories, and likewise not being aware of societal expectations does not mean it is not happening or does not have an effect.

[–] Col3814444@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No hate so pure as Christian love.

[–] 10A@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Spoken like an immature child parroting demons. Repent, and ask that you may be shielded from them. The time will come when it's too late.

[–] die444die@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Hahaha this motherfucker believes in “demons”. What an idiot!

[–] briellebouquet@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

jesus was actually gay and there's proof throughout the new testament.

oh damn i forgot, i also received a divine revelation about it. god was pretty chill about the whole thing.

[–] Technological_Elite@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Jesus also had long hair, a very feminine trait according to the right!

Also for those of you downvoting the comment above me, I am almost certain that it was a joke. Mine however wasn't, just adds to the funni

[–] briellebouquet@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

2 of the downvotes are almost for sure the 2 nazis in the thread. the third is probably just bc it wasn't funny lmao

[–] 10A@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I don't know if you think I'm a "nazi" — I am most certainly not — but in any case you can see who upvotes and downvotes any comment by going to more > activity.

[–] briellebouquet@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

you have literally done naziism in this very thread. fuck off and rot you murderous piece of shit.

[–] HipHoboHarold@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

You're part of the reason your religion is dying, and I'm so glad to see it.

[–] Helium@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Who's more insecure: you, or your antiquated god with all your weird-ass rules you worship?

[–] QHC@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

God is not real, and even if he was he would be a real asshole that I would have no interest in listening to. Your idea of morality is nonsense and irrelevant, not to mention disgusting. You are a hypocrite, too, rejecting everything that your supposed savior preached.

If Jesus was real, I sure hope he wouldn't love you.
