You can find a handful of examples (south africa, nazi germany, some US states).
If a handful of kooks did attempt to justify these using the Bible they were quiet obviously failures as the Christian Abolitionists (in the US case) used the Bible to conquer them with massive public support (most Christians).

One thing you can try and do is visit some community in Harlem New York and announce that black men are the same as gays.
Also mouth off about the Bible.
See how long you can remain an 'atheist' as you are being beaten to death within maybe.. maybe you will have 10 minutes of slow death before finally being eliminated.

I'm not recommending it but its something you could try and do?
If you believe 'blacks' are the same thing as gays in that sense.

Just so you know (you can google this) but gay marriage is NOT VERY POPULAR in the black communities.
Not at all.
In fact you can find plenty of USA blacks on youtube VERY OFFENDED by your idea that their civil rights are the 'same thing' as Gay Agenda goals.

Just so ya know.

Wow, talk about knocking down a straw man. When did I ever say black is the same thing as gay? I'm talking about the specific issue of blacks marrying whites and the same sex marrying, and even more specifically about their justification with the same arguments from the same book. I am not comparing the civil rights struggles of both groups.

I live in the US. I've lived really close to Harlem, it's actually not as bad as your grotesque Hollywood picture, so I'd **** about that. And I'd be much more worried expressing my atheism in the south than NYC. Blacks that get offended by atheists or gay marriage are also either A) not thinking about their own beliefs or B) assholes. They should empathize with stigmatized minorities, as they are a stigmatized minority themselves, however incomparable their suffering may be.
