I know it says it's wrong so i wouldn't marry you BUT i don't have a problem with it and jesus loves everyone he just loves some of you more than others..
He managed to evade offending any viewers quite well i thought without completely undermining his professed relgious beliefs. Fair play to the clever monk. |

But it is a bit of a lie, as if his god loved everyone equal, wouldn't they have the same rights in Dave's church?

Saying that the big book of fairytales told him to do it is not very clever.
He's lucky he's not up or he'd be out Friday. |

In the same way you might love all your children equally and don't allow them to do certain things at the breakfast table. It may very well be because you love them you don't allow footballs to be tossed at the table. |

Sorry i should have stuck to boys ****ing... basically god can't love all his children equally if they have different rights that is unequal and the reasoning behind it is irrelevant to the fact of its inequality. |

Fair play to Josie for questioning Dave on his 'christian' views. The typical answer of a minister or priest when they don;t want to answer tho. 'I dont want to discuss this now'. Thats the problem with religion Dave!

But Dave is allowing some of his children to toss the football and not allowing his other children to toss the football. Yet he claims they are equal.

Yep, very hard for religious people to defend bigotry.

1. You are complaining that David is inconsistent in applying or explaining the rules of his Church. Fair enough. Your complain would be like a parent saying they do not allow footballs at the breakfast table but the other parent (David) says to the kids "..but I don't mind it". OK. 2. In another complaint you suppose that if there is a God then that God must allow or condone or endorse same-sex marriages or else He must not love some and love others. Depends. If same-sex marriage is unhelpful, counter-productive, misleading, artificial and detrimental then God is showing love by forbidding it. Now treating people equally is something that might also be different than 'loving people equally as much. In an example: - the parents may love both sons equally as much but 15 year old Brian is very good at digesting a beer and handling himself well and so he is allowed a beer on some nights. His twin brother Jason does not handle alcohol, becomes agitated, demands more beer, acts the fool. Jason is not allowed to drink beer. You can say the parents love both children equally and the fact they don't allow Jason beer is actually demonstrating this and not mitigating this love. Can you agree? |

I mean you have God as one parent and dave as another so dave is the wife of god? I hope you aren't religious cause that surely isn't allowed to equate a chubby welshman to the almighty lol. I'm not questioning the god of the bible we know he wasn't keen on homos till they had a rewrite and said it wasn't as bad as he initially thought. I'm questioning why Dave would not be consistent which i think we agree on, i simply think he is a fake. And no if you have two parents who give different rules to their children based on their abilities that is not equality, it may be right based on a parental care or caution for safety but it is not equality and in that sense i agree with you. If the parents were to be truly equal they would say neither child can have beer. I'm not saying God must either allow or condone simply that Dave said he condoned it and the majority of christians believe the same, and dave clearly believes the same but didn't want to look bad.

but, I should watch it again. It will help if you know that David is not really a monk and to the best of my knowledge is not a properly ordained minister who can do state-recognized marriages, but, more importantly, you should know that the vast majority of Christians, Christian scholars, Christian clergy would consider David to be a cult member of a bizarre pseudo-christian fringe group, and, that David believes in a lot of things you won't find in a Bible, Church doctrine or really anywhere else. David accepts things that would be considered heresy by not only most Christians but most NON-Christians who would think it bizarre and inexplicable. In fact you heard just a 'minor problem' compared to a number of bizarre, inconsistent, aberrant things that David has and might say. |

The funny thing is there's nothing in the bible outlawing same sex marriages. Even the gay thing is questionable as it only says men laying together is an abomination in the eyes of the lord. No mention of it being a sin. Just means he doesn't want to watch it.

as an agnostic i dont agree with davids reasoning on this matter i have my own opinion which is private but i will give him great credit for sticking to his beliefs the wimps way out would have been to lie and say yes il do the ceremony knowing full well he would never have to do it but he didnt do that he stuck to what he believes in not everybody in that house would have done the same thats for sure so good on him.

A conversation of differing opinions doesn't need to end in conflict if the people are intelligent and respectful. I know in Big Brother it often ends that way, but Josie wasn't spoiling for a fight, merely questioning a comment that deserved questioning. The fact that he was so quick to end that conversation suggests he knew he was onto a loser. It was only smart in a cynical way.

He may not be a homophobe, he may have a live and let live attitude. He didnt say homosexuality is an abomination in his eyes or in the eyes of his god. As he said God loves everyone, but scripture in his interpretation doesnt allow same sex marriage.
A hypocrite no, he defended his beliefs is all. Without meaning to offend anyone. If you read the bible especially the New Testament you will see it does say God loves everyone, even sinners. It doesnt say sinning is okay. |

My problem is that he holds to a homophobic belief - that gay people are not entitled to the same right of marriage as straight people - and yet claims to have no problem with gays. That is hypocrital. He's entitled to not believe gays should marry all he wants, just don't pretend this comes from anywhere but homophobia. And the New Testament says that God sent Jesus to die for our sins so our sins would be forgiven. Basically, because the Old Testament made so many things sins, they had to write a new scripture that absolved people from them. |
