Was/is the bible used (by religious extremists) to justify slavery, segregation and anti miscegenation?
Is the bible used ( by religious extremists) to justify anti gay bigotry?
The answer to both questions is "yes". How is that a Strawman?
It's a strawman because you said I said something I didn't say. What you just stated here has nothing to do with what you said I said and I didn't say. If you don't know what a strawman is, it'd take you about 30 seconds to learn by typing "strawman fallacy definition" into Google.
You must really be fun to watch TV with. When they talk about Saddam Hussein, you say, OMG, he gassed his own people, that's like the United States where gays do not have the right to the validation of government marriage. OMG, the Bataan Death march, that was horrible, that's like the United States where gays do not have the right to the validation of government marriage. OMG, Attila plundered and murdered all those villagers, that's like the United States where gays do not have the right to the validation of government marriage. OMG, the Holocaust, that's like the United States where gays do not have the right to the validation of government marriage. You're a one trick pony, I can't take you seriously you comparing slavery and gay marriage.
The problem with the slavery, bible discussion is the implication Christianity is somehow responsible is not established just because some people used the bible to rationalize slavery. Anyone can misuse the Bible, it doesn't make Christianity responsible for their actions. Oddly you get this concept when you say all Muslims are not responsible for the actions of the fundamentalist radicals.
Nobody implied Christianity was responsible for any of those. You went there, nobody else.
Correct.
Christian dogma was misappropriated by those who wished to justify colonialism and slavery in the past just as its being misappropriated by those today hostile to civil liberties for gay Americans.
