Women banned from homeless shelter ...because Bible
« on: December 14, 2015, 03:34:56 am »
http://www.addictinginfo.org/2015/12/13/kentucky-christian-homeless-shelter-just-banned-women-and-girls-because-the-bible-video/

Kentucky homeless shelter decided to throw out the women (and girls) because they are a "Good Christian (tm)"  organization and were afraid of the people in the shelter having pre-marital sex.

Quote
    “They may want to meet or even slip in a room occasionally and then we can’t have that. It seem like these last days it’s getting worse. Ungodly time.”

...

“I don’t know if what’s happening, uh, if it’s a whole because they know it’s a men and women’s shelter, they say, ‘well, we’re homeless — maybe we can find somebody, a mate or something,” he explained, adding that “if they done it right, they’d be fine but they go overboard with it.” Woodward did not explain how they could “done it right.”

At least the women weren't just thrown out on the streets. They were moved to a shelter 30minutes away and the director hopes to let women into the shelter again as soon as the place has been renovated so that this kind of shenanigans can be prevented. (No idea how they think they will accomplish that.) Also, majority of the people in the shelter were men so it is plausible that had the gender ration been the other way round the shelter would have kicked the men out.

And a final quote because I honestly can't think of a better joke:
Quote
Of course, he did not address the possibility of hot, steamy man-on-man sex or “solo play” — because the problem, obviously, is the female population.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

Woodward should go ahead and ban the men, too. And himself. He has no business running a shelter if he's that fucking stupid. A better use of the shelter would be an open squat rather than him running it.

I sympathize completely. However, to use against us. Let me ask you a troll. On the one who pulled it. But here's the question: where do I think it might as well have stepped out of all people would cling to a layman.

It's nice they had another shelter to take them in.

How is it that people are still hung up about premarital sex in 2015?

I guess Matthew 25 was missing from their Bibles.

Direct question, UP (well, more of a direct request):

I'm interested in these theories you mentioned. Explain your best one to us.

I think my best one is that it's an extension of the unfortunate human tendency to look down on those they consider inferior.  There are always those considered less deserving than others, whether it be "lazy bums" who don't deserve monetary aid or "bigots" who don't deserve free speech rights.  Really, I'd say that's the root cause, when you get right down to it.

But why are people who have sex before marriage considered inferior? Or are you saying that the issue isn't sex before marriage so much as sex before marriage for the homeless?
