Yeah, somehow I knew you would not be able to answer my question.
Now on to your next challenge to ignore.
Produce these gay friends that claim they are only gay by choice.
Hell, produce any gay person, any ONE gay person that claims they are that way by choice.
And how exactly would I "produce" my friends seeing as this IS the internet?
Point is, not ALL gays are going to agree with you. Get over it.

I agree we should keep kids in mind when discussing this topic. But shielding them from natural biology is not as important as shielding them from the hateful ignorance that your previous post conveyed.
Also, it is meaningful to this argument that the sexual mechanics of the penis and the anus have nothing to do with the state of homosexuality.

Shielding them from natural biology is just as important. We do not need AIDS spread more than it already is. Schools promoting "safe sex" isn't cutting it. How about they promote NO sex?
And I was not being "hateful". Some people just happen to jump at every little thing and call it a "hate crime". Once AGAIN, I do not care if a person is gay or not. That is their decision and I respect that. However, do NOT teach it in the public school system and don't tell the parent. I do not want my daughter being taught that being gay is ok. Its not. Thats not how she is being raised and therefore I do not want her to be taught that "filth". And calling gay "filth" is not a hate crime. Sorry. If I called you the "F" word then, yes, that would be called a hate crime. I will not be teaching her to hate gays. Most of the ones I have met are funny and outgoing. Nice people. And thats what they are, some are nice people. Some are complete assholes like non-gay people. All I am saying is do not teach kids how to be gay in the public school system.
Now do you understand WHERE I stand? Seriously, I am not repeating myself a 4th time.

That is by far the most idiotic post I have read yet.

I did NOT attack your kid. You attacked gay people. I offered you the idea of the situation reversed against your child.
Get it? I asked how you would feel if it came back that way but I guess I am expecting far too much here.
I guess trying to have an intelligent conversation is off the table if all I can do from here is type words and all you can do from there is fail to put them together correctly in your head.
P.S. qestion my parenting skills but I did not need to protect anyone from becoming gay. I did not need to hide them from the realities of the natural world. When the time was right and the questions were asked, I answered honestly and kindly. I never gave the slightest impression that there was anything better or worse, more or less correct, about any sexual orientation. Yet, nobody "turned" gay. So, I have to question what damages your daughter has already been dealt by you that she would need such severe guidance.

Again, maybe you could choose to be gay and choose to be sexual aroused by a male but most people do not choose who they are sexually attracted to. This fundamental ignorance in understanding homosexuality divides people.
And you say that you are not "hateful" but than you say this.

You say being gay is not ok...
That is pretty much the definition of hateful.
You are saying you don't want your daughter to be taught that being gay is "ok". So I understand why you would disagree with the topic of this thread. But if your beliefs are fundamentally ignorant and hateful, how can you expect people to care about your opinion?
Don't worry, you daughter won't be taught how to commit evil homosexual acts in school. But hopefully she WILL be taught that the intrinsic differences between us as humans are not bad thinga. Hopefully she WILL learn not to think differently of people because of old prejudices and hate.
Those of your opinion are behind the curve, and as your daughter grows in this ever increasingly acceptingand enlightened world, YOU are the one who will be left behind.

Wow! Wow. So calling the way someone was born is not hateful. Interesting. Describe your daughter for us, I am sure she was born with some qualities that the board in general can find to be "filfth."
You are so ignorant that you are hating people while telling them you are not being hateful.
You do not care if anyone is gay, you are cool with that. But it is still filfth?
English is your second or third language? I do not want to insult anyone's intelligence based on writing incredibly stupid things if they have no idea what they are saying is wrong so if you are having trouble with a new language, my appologies. If not, read what you write sometime.
Also, you have still completely missed that part where no-one was teaching kids to be gay. Where are they teaching kids to be gay. Show me the class, the books, the teaching schedule, lesson play. I want to see the schools that are teaching kids to be gay.
Call them all out on the floor. I would not want my kids being taught how to have any kind of sex by their school, nor being pushed one way or another - against their natural inclination.
So, if schools are teaching kids to be gay, I am as upset as you.
Name them and provide us with at least a little evidence that they are actually teaching kids to be gay.

Originally posted by PoliticalRevolutionUNDLOL, you have got to be freaking serious. Being gay is NOT ok. That is my damn OPINION and something I believe. If you do not like it then TOO BAD. Its not a damn hate crime to have a freaking opinion!
Again...I do NOT hate gay people as a few of them are my damn friends. If you don't want to think that then thats fine with me. I could seriously care less. We are going to argue this to the end of time so damn lets drop it already.
