I'm sick of ignorant people not even reading what happened. They WERE NOT kicked out. They were told not to come back after they paid their bill.
If it was such a travesty they should have been kicked out. But, you wouldn't know that would you?
And yes Charles1952.....I have every right to be judgmental as I don't use the bible as my excuse.

So, their bad behavior warranted them a ban. They should learn how to behave in public. Funny, isn't it,t hat they don't mention when the behavior occurred, that warranted the ban? So they ate, then misbehaved, and were told to pay and not come back. Did you expect them to eat for free because they couldn't act like civilized adults with manners?
Using your hatred of Christians as an excuse for bad behavior makes you the intolerant one, not the Christians. Check page five, I think, for the actual facts on Christians and judgment. Link in one of my posts. The "judge not" business isn't what you want it to be.

I understand what you are saying, i am not saying you are a "Bigot" or Intolerant or forcing you to watch Gay porn. but how many stories do you hear of this happening to Heterosexual Couples?

I find it confusing the way the word "accept" is always used for Gay Issues. Accept Gay Lifestyle. Accept Gay Marriage. In what way is accept being used and what does it mean in context.
Accepting Gay Marriage for example means what??? A gay couple isn't giving their marriage to anyone so there is nothing to accept. If they get married, it's just a fact plain and simple like any other. That fact doesn't change based upon any third party acceptance of it. It just is. Even if someone chooses not only to not accept it, but deny it, makes no difference. It still happened and is still a fact.

Exactly. Gays don't give a damn about acceptance, they're happy to be left the hell alone. I suppose there's the parades, but there's also westboro baptist church and osama bin laden so I think a few parades can't hurt.

I agree to a point, but there are gays and there are GAYS....

PDA may make one uncomfortable. Seeing someone spit on the sidewalk might as well. Seeing a parent scream at their children, hearing someone with a horrible cough, etc. etc.
Perhaps, rather than counselling anyone to "accept that some people don't like for you to touch your boyfriend/girlfriend/mate in public so stop it or be subject to name calling, expulsion from restaurants, etc." we should counsel the squeamish to do what I do when I'm in public and see something I don't like ... I turn my attention elsewhere.

What if someone dog barks all the time, and you can not ever sleep.

Well, now, that is an entirely different situation, isn't it? If someone's dog barks ALL THE TIME and the sound comes into your home and you can not EVER sleep, that's MUCH different than a moment's glance in public at something you find offensive, which you can turn your eyes from.
ISN'T IT???

Look, if I want to kiss my husband in public, I'm going to do it. If I want to hold his hand, stroke his back or rub my leg on his, I'm going to do it and if you don't like it, you can look away. My intent is not to press anyone's buttons, but to show affection to my husband. If someone doesn't like it, they can look the other way.
I see LOTS of things I don't like in public, but I don't think I'm entitled to control other people's behavior to suit my sensibilities. Why do you?

That sound perfectly acceptable to me, kind of natural, which is joyful.
PDAs from homosexuals, feels creepy to me.
perhaps this is my deviance.
