Is it as tough being a rational, logical person in a US "bible belt" small town as it is being the only ?

Question

g*y in a small Welsh village?

Answer 1

No.  If you are g*y and show affection toward your partner in public in a small Welsh village or in a US Bible Belt small town, you will be assaulted, attacked and possibly murdered.  I've never heard of rational logical people being killed for public displays of affection nor will religious extremists try to pass laws to stop rational, logical people from marrying, adopting children, serving in the military or working.

Answer 2

Yes.

Answer 3

bloody h**l,mate.

you'll end up like edward woodward in the wicker man.

i can hear 'em now, "burn the heretic,burn him !!"

Answer 4

Normally, I have no issues.  Today, while at a baseball game a woman who had just moved here from "up North" proceeded to tell me how all of the people in her small TN town are hypocrites.  I patiently listened for awhile (until she was driving me to drink) and then I said, "Take I-75 North."

If other people are happy, why are you forcing them to change?  LOL

Answer 5

Why do people assume that being a Christian denies rationality and logic?  I assure you that I constantly study both science and the bible and it does nothing but affirm my faith in God.

There's no such thing as "atheist" evidence and "Christian" evidence.  Both atheists and Christians look at the same evidence, one this "there can't be a god" goggles and another with "there must be a God" goggles, so to speak.  It's all about presuppositions.
