Thread: This is really stupid

    Re: This is really stupid

    They always say " as a Christian " or " I am a christian "

    I don't go up to women and say "as a black leather satan following metal head I object to religious songs in schools "

    Strange people

    Now that's scary
    Oh, please! Yes I am a Christian and I know/have known many, many Christians over the years and I don't recall any of us being responsible for barbaric laws, religious wars and world-wide bloodshed. I would like to suggest that the people you are referring to could not by definition be classed as Christians!!

    I will predict the future

    A happier and more tolerant one for transgender children

    Christianity and the various world religions are responsible for barbaric laws , religious wars and bloodshed worldwide

    Arabs v Israelis

    Hindus verses muslims

    The murder of doctors at abortion clinics in the united states

    That's all in the name of religion and people arguing whose is best

    Agreed, i'm a non believer but grew up around plenty of christians and catholics who aren't hard line or intolerant, they have faith and interpret it and use it as a way to make themselves a better person, the ones that don't are doing it wrong.

    I was actually going to agree with you and say that it's ridiculous that the teacher could be punished for saying "well done girls" until I saw the teacher's comments.
    He did apologise straight away, the opinions he is stating were just made to the bbc, he did not say it in the class

    Wait... He apparently apologised but then completely did a 180 and went on the offensive against transgender people, making him look like he was singling the boy out orginally. That's not an apology, is it?

    The comments he made were in a letter to the headteacher, not to the BBC. Maybe read the article properly before making judgements in future.

    It does say that he apologised when he realised that the pupil was angry, although it doesn't say that he apologised for implying that she was female or for making her angry, there is a difference. He has his views and beliefs and as far as i'm concerned he's entitled to them. The issue at hand is the fact that he doesn't recognise the girl wanting to identify as being a boy, he's openly admitted that. I suppose the problem is that because he's in a position of power and would've signed up to school policy that somehow, the pupil concerned may think that he has a conflict of interests or doesn't respect him-her depending on what you believe. At least he's being honest and true to his beliefs.

    As a music lover, I object to heavy metal being described as music.

    Christians were saying this about gay people 10-20 years ago. Why would you want to keep being backwards on things like that?

    He’s allowed to express his opinion, he’s not in prison is he?

    And do think Christ would recognise these people as his own?

    You missed the point. The implication of the ToTaL ITK post was that it is only Christians who do not share the belief in the ideology of transgenderism - what about the general population? I think this is what CleveVanLeef was referring to when he wrote about the PC brigade. We are led to believe that everyone thinks the same way and by saying something contrary to this automatically labels someone as an intolerant bigot, hence most people keep their real opinions to themselves!

    Ah, intolerant, the favourite word of the PC brigade. Oxford dictionary definition: the fact of not being willing to accept ideas or ways of behaving that are different from your own. In this case, was the teacher being intolerant of the child or the ideology?

    Re: This is really stupid

    Take a look at this article:

    https://www.spiked-online.com/2018/1...g-on-children/

    Is this guy being intolerant of children or of an ideology?

    Of the child or the ideology? Of the child - if he is really a Christian then I would say yes he would be, he would have compassion for the child even if he was not happy with what the child had done, knowing the potential consequences down the line. Of the ideology of transgenderism, clearly how can he be accepting of something he disagrees with!!!
