I should have been a tad bit clearer. Being gay is as perceived as being wrong , just like the things I mentioned, However this is a personal opinion and has nothing to do with equality.

I know. I understand people believe it is wrong. But to me personally it's like someone having the belief that heterosexuality is wrong. It doesn't make sense to me.

Being Gay Is personal. Equality is public. Lets keep it that way, shall we.

And to be quite honest with you, only God reserves the right to judge.

Either way, saying gay people are hurting the population is just ridiculous. That's what I was getting @.

I suppose. I'm just someone who sometimes enjoys acting as an unbiased observer and understanding another person's perception of something. Kinda like... walking a mile in their shoes to understand them better. It helps me to understand why that person believes what they believe.

Oh, religion. It does always seem to come back to that.

The way I see it is Homosexuals want more or different rights than that of the rest of the US share.

Why ? ?


Yeah? Like the right to marry and have that marriage recognized by the federal government? Not.

If anything they help it. They can adopt the children that already need a loving home.

You pretty much covered it all, I feel the same way. It's all about sexual perversion. If it wasnt for the "sex" there would be no definition of what gay is.

You can't be "born" with a sexual preference. You develop one.
Does one deserve the same rights as everyone else? ya, I don't care, they can do their thing I'll do mine, wether I think it's wrong or not. It just gets a bit annoying after a while, because there are bigger more important issues to deal with, if the gays win all their equal rights battles, yet by the time they get them, they have the right to line up next to the straight population in the fema concentration camps. lol


If there are bigger and more important issues to "deal with" than individual freedoms and equal treatment under federal and state law, then feel free to skip this thread entirely. Your input won't be missed.

Here's the problem about not being specific about the marriage issue. From what I've found, when bringing up that gay people are not allowed to marry, that isn't true. They can marry the same as heterosexuals can. And heterosexual can't marry the same way homosexual can't. It's the issue of the homosexual wanting to marry their same-sex partner that is the problem.

Men wanting intercourse with men is not normal. Sorry it makes me sick.

I have no sympathy for any of them.

Really? Who passed that edict that sex was only for procreation and not for expressing love of your partner? Please inform us all.

Issue should be can we all conduct ourselves in a orderly fashion.As far as equal rights are concern, EVERYONE deserves equality, problem is ,is that equality is not a human trait. Its a goal. Great thread Jax


No we can't come to that conclusion. How is being gay wrong? Leave out the bible references and just state the argument and supporting facts that make being glbt wrong.

Facts like how homosexual men increase the amount of AIDs in the global population?

If you happened to view to view my rebuttal I made myself clear. If you would like to examine that, Im all ears. FYI, I did not use any bible reference. (dont need too)
