Intolerance, I'll give you intolerance!

It's time these aggressive christian sectists stopped judging other people's lifestyles and recognised they are a tolerated minority in a secular world. The time they used force and violence to dictate has finished. Perhaps we need more of these cases to make them face reality and not rely on their outdated myths and untruths.

The force and violence exhibited by a supposedly "aggressive Christian sect", was a comment by an individual about gay marriage made on a private Facebook page a work colleague ("friend") called intolerant :

I don’t understand why people who have no faith and don’t believe in Christ would want to get hitched in church. The Bible is quite specific that marriage is for men and women. If the State wants to offer civil marriages to the same sex then that is up to the State; but the State shouldn’t impose its rules on places of faith and conscience.

So that comment is judged as "aggressive" and what punishment for a tolerated minority?

It lead to a disciplinary hearing and the man was demoted and given a 40% pay cut. He took it to court, but they decided it was enough for some-one to interpret such comments as homophobic. Seems to be that the secularists are the aggressive ones, and they are particularly intolerant of different ideas.

And ponder for a moment that whilst secularists do not pay heed to these myths they are demanding access to a church to be married before God.

Regardless of ones position on gay marriage, this is another blow to free speech.
