Apple under fire for 'gay conversion' app

reply to post by danielsil18


Look, noone is ignoring you. You just have no valid points to respond to at all. You continue to bring up the most absured arguments. In response to the animal argument,,, I've seen a male dog hump another male dog, but do you believe they were being homosexual about it? NO!!!
Have you ever seen a male dog actually stick his penis in another dog's anus? NO! Do you think it happens with dolphins or bonobos? NO. How do you or anyone else figure that female bonobos actually have sex with each other? Monkeys don't have dildos, I've seen no videos of females licking each others vaginas for sexual pleasure. Humping is totally instinctual. Give it a rest.

You wouldn't be whining if Apple marketed an app to turn you into a homosexual, complete with a 4+ star rating?

I have a feeling that lots of people who would never download it, would have something to say anyway. And then I'd have to say they were all whining like babies.

Nobody who's straight would download the app because none of us would care!! Gays already have a bad rap with straight men so why the hell would we waste an ONCE of our time getting angry over yet another way the gays would churn up a plan to turn straights gay...As if that cat hasn't been beat 1,000x in the past..NEXT.

Yep. And people do not choose who their instincts tell them to hump.

For arguments sake, I will agree that homosexuality is not natural. The way I see it, it would be unnatural for someone with homosexual feelings to force themselves in to a heterosexual relationship.

Go to page 3 and go down, there is a post that you skipped and chose not to reply, it has two stars so you don't get lost. I reminded you but you still chose to ignore it. If you want to continue to ignore it then do so, I didn't expect anything more.

You started saying that scientists that don't agree with your views have an agenda. You started putting false information. The one that says that for "every "professional" for homosexuality there are two against it". I asked you where you got that and you still haven't replied.

You are the one making false statements and then ignoring when you get caught.

No, gays have a "bad rap" with bigots. That's different than all the straight men you are misrepresenting, and for whom you obviously don't speak.

so why the hell would we waste an ONCE of our time getting angry over yet another way the gays would churn up a plan to turn straights gay...

Because that's apparently exactly what people like you do when threads like this pop up. Here you are right now, wasting your time (whether you are angry or not) arguing about it just like you claim you wouldn't.

There are some VERY offensive apps out there, there's porn, there's violence, let's talk about those please. Good lord, I have never heard of such utter nonsense.

What? When THEY Whine? Frankly, I'm hetero as they come... and I'm COMPLAINING about this too.

And if you don't recall, having the fundamental right to bitch about something is what our founders had in mind....

Wow...just wow...

I do not care about your sexual orientation. It has nothing to do with this topic. If this goody app is worth complaining about to anyone, then I am happy for them because they cannot have many complaints in life. In fact, this is just about the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen anyone get upset about, and that includes two trekkies I saw come to blows over who was the best Starship Captain. (Winner was Kirk, BTW)

People who say this is fine (and I do agree, they should be able to approve whatever app they like)...would it make sense if it was a "negro conversion" app or "christian conversion app"? Would it be OK in your eyes then? The only people who don't see something odd about it are people who, no doubt, dislike gay people or that sexual bent.

The same instincts that got us worldwide AIDS and HIV epidemic. Thanks for humping the same sex.

That makes no sense! You can't change someone else's skin color, much less from a cell phone, so a "negro conversion" app would be rendered void and useless!!! Think before you bang down on the keyboards next time!

Actually they have a "Convert to Islam" app, and I don't see people flipping out over it.

I seriously don't get what all this venom is about. It's just a goofy app.

Why didn't you say that same thing about the "gay conversion" app? the irony...

I see no problem with this app. The gay pc is getting on my nerve.

I see no problem with this app either - but for the opposite reason.
As long as they don't filter out any app that would want to do the opposite (provide support resources for the LGBT community, etc.).
Apple shouldn't get into the middle of this culture war.
Hence, IMH(f)O, they did the right thing by allowing it.

PS: I also hate Nazi's, but I'm totally against censoring them. It's the same kind of thing for me.

FREEDOM OF SPEECH WRAP THIS CRAP UP ALL READY! I'm still waiting for the WET channel as opposed to BET... But seriously I'm not religious and don't give two snips about a gay "cure" but freedom of speech is freedom of speech... Gays get over it.

Personally I was hoping for a straight to gay conversion app. Was soo disappointed when I read it was the other way round. People need to broaden their horizons and experiment more

Oh really? I thought the HIV epidemic was brought on by vaccines developed using diseased chimpanzee kidneys; and subsequently injected in the New York gay community and Africa.

Um..... I don't think the WET channel would be what you're expecting Check for that in the upper limits of your cable programming.

For white people t.v. you're going to need a different acronym.

Or how Christian Ministers against the use of contraceptives will preach hellfire sermons condemning them in countries like Africa where AIDs and HIV have ravaged the population.

But sure, keep calling it a gay disease. Lesbians have the lowest percentage of HIV and AIDs so I guess we can call it the most morally acceptable and safest form of sex.

Whats the problem with this app? Because it endeavors to provide steps for an individual to change their lifestyle?

Why is this any different than an app that helps you lose weight?

Well, you can change your weight... ( For the most part).... Can you truly change your sexual orientation?

That said, if a person wants to download this app to their phone... Well, I think that is there own choice....

Well, for a Christian you certainly don't know much about the offshoots...It has to do with a black persons skin color being caused by their sin. Stupidity of course, but some believe it.
