HoMoPhObIaEw, look at that
Father, grab the bat

She raped me with her eyes
She speaks of love, lies

Perversity and sin
Our side is larger, we will win

Satan knocks at our door
Their love is slime upon our floor

We can't touch them, it is wrong
Stoners, sex-dolls, the list is long

Kill her now, don't you see?
There is no heaven for her or me

Burn them in the church they taint
Their lies, our fear, the life it ain't

We'll fear him till he's dead
He has a boy in his bed!

Sinners, one and all!
Kill them, kill them all!

Your slumber parties safe again
Your sports teams are without sin

They chose this fate, not I
Teach the dykes and fags

Conservative Christianityby ~Eshto

Cartoons & Comics / Traditional Media / Cartoons / Drawings

Political cartoon that was published in the Badger Herald, a campus newspaper here in Madison. Printed Tuesday, February 7, 2006.

The context of this is important. I was pretty active in the fight against the constitutional ban on gay marriage and civil unions in my state. I wrote editorials and attended a lot of debates, including a public hearing at the state capitol.

I heard ALL of these ideas and much, much more (and worse) come straight from the mouths of the conservative politicians, religious leaders and average joes who supported this limitation on the rights of LGBT people. This includes Gundrum and Fitzgerald, the two lawmakers who wrote the amendment; Julaine Appling, leader of the Family Research Institute, an anti-gay group here in Wisconsin; a conservative lawyer who, I swear to god, said that it is ridiculous tha equality would apply to everyone (???); a crazy old man who said his Bible talks to him and that gay people caused hurricane Katrina.

So there are a few conservatives and/or Christians who take issue with this cartoon. Well you know what pal, if this upsets you, and if you don't feel this represents you or your beliefs, then it's not me you should be taking issue with. It's your leaders, and the homophobia ingrained in your cultures.

Mind if I use this on facebook if I give you credit?

Seriously its people like this on my platform who make me sick. If you think its wrong but its not hurting you, then shut the fuck up, let the dudes fuck, and deal with it... not like you have to watch em, as wrong as it is. Basically, I don't like homosexuality, but do what ya gotta do I won't stop ya.

I wish on the other side it would state more than just their anger against gays, (like lack of care fore the environment and calling abortion muder) but, regardless, I can completely understand this XD
From what I've been just reading, this fits the situation perfectly for representing the conservatives I have seen.

I hate people like this, as a christian I find I don't agree with homosexuality, but America is founded on freedom, not intolerance.

Some people are gay, it's a thing that exists in nature, it doesn't matter if you agree with it or not. And there are plenty of Christians that are perfectly accepting of gay people. Might want to rethink your statement.

Cannibalism exists in nature. Can I eat my hypothetical future kids, just like my hamster did? It's all good, according to that logic, right?
Christianity is not about sexual orientation and homosexuality is nothing you can refer as 'natural'.
As a psychologist once said: «Homosexuality is a process and a choice, not something defined by birth». That being said, you can't consider it "natural" for it is not in your instinct to eventually become gay, it's nothing more than a thought that crosses your mind some day.
By the way, I liked the drawing itself but I don't like religious and/or axiological controversy. There's no point creating something just to watch shit fly everywhere and thus -- being that your purpose or not -- I don't consider this a critic, leading me to dislike the concept.

And people say the Government isn't run by religion. Well obviously, that's a lie.

God bless the USA?

It's on the motherfucking dollar bill too.

We need to stop letting Christianity control our government.

And BTW, I'm christian and saying this.

ALSO I WANNA MARRY MY GIRLFRIEND, Y U NO LET THAT HAPPEN?!

God defend New Zealand? At least gay marriage is becoming legal here next August
