Don't forget that there are ones out there that really believe in not casting the first stone. Some of them are best people period that I have ever met, and do a better job of not judging people than even I do. People that are truly Christians are loving caring people that have a genuine care for everyone that can be really inspiring. Everyone else is a hypocrite, or just a bad half-assed super sinning Christian (i.e. me in the past, which is why I no longer call myself one, to give respect to those who really are Christians and have the force of will to strictly follow the beliefs). I know a lot of Christians probably give you shit not stop for being gay, but you also got to remember that they are NOT representing even their own most holy beliefs when addressing you in foul ways, and are therefore, not even Christians to begin with. They are just people with prejudices latching on to a system of belief as a guise to act in a certain way. Much like extreme fundamentalists of any faith oe idea they exploit it for their own means. Stay away from that trap man, least you forget that it is infact assholes you hate, and not people of true and honorable convictions.
I probably do have an ill view of all people who follow organised religion and I don't see why someone who is devoutly christian deserves respect. So what if they are nice guys because of it, they still follow blindly what other people tell them and to me that is a dangerous prospect. It's human nature to be nice, we wouldn't be here if it wasn't, nothing to do with if an old book tells someone to be nice or not. It's much more respectful to be a nice person than to be nice because it's your religion. Religion does annoy me and I guess I can't help that but I do think the world would be a better place without it but people are free to do what they want.
