LOL! I also agree with beast, but replacing mother nature with god. Gay people aren't bad, but the act of being gay is wrong.

Just for the record, Im bringing this up because there is a gay kid in my debate class. This kid is the most whiny kid I have ever met. He claims he is a minority etc... We were debating today, affirmative action. And he started getting all personal saying how he couldn't walk down the street holding his boyfriends hand. And how everything was bad and that affirmative action was there for him as well, somehow. I don't know how? He was the only one in the class for affirmative action, it was great I thought he was going to cry :)



Opinions?

My opinion is that you go to school with a certain exiled member of AT.

I wouldn't choose it for myself and I can't recommend it to friends and family.

For some reason though, and this is admittedly hypocritical of me, it's perfectly fine for women. :p

I didn't choose to like woman I just am. So I don't think it is wrong to go for what you are atracted to.

So don't preach well alla, zeus, god or whatever, that just shows how closed minded you are.

I think chris Rock said it best... "You don't like gays, then your kid will be gay..."

My questions is why does it bother people so much. And what if smeone had said "Blacks(or jews, etc..), Wrong or Right? No flaming!" In the 50's just about everybody would have been they are not smart, they are slime, keep them out of MY school, etc... And I think the gay thing will be just like that. 10-20 or however many years from now when it is not a big deal anybody that said other wise in the past will be remembered. Look at trent lott and what trouble he is in.

Look, in theory the thread is a good idea. Do a search though and you'll see how these come out. It's been discussed / flamed to death here. ATOT doesn't handle things like this well. And my post was no more thread crapping than most of the other responses you got.

Well I singled you out, just because one thread craps doesn't mean you should. I learned that when I was 4.

I wanted to express my ideas, and didnt feel like looking at an old one. Sue me.

Exactly, there were no flames in here until you came HotChic.

So there were movements for black rights in the 50's I agree with them. Now there are gay rights movements. I don't really agree with those. Next there will be movements for what? Clone's rights? Murderer's rights? Where do you draw the line?



The only reason why it will be like you say in 20 years is because society walks on such thin ice now. Everyone is afraid to offend everyone else, and no one will say what they believe.

Just so yah know I don't dislike gays. I wouldn't mind having a gay friend. I just think what they do is wrong.

Haha, go HC!

Get a life, Cuda. You should know that these threads are a little less than flamebait.

Thanks for the attention, I feel special. :) The only problem with expressing your ideas on this topic is that simply stating "no flaming" doesn't make it so, and these theads often, if not always, wind up being locked and people getting vacations. You evidently realized the risk of this and tried to minimalize it, but you understand that you're throwing a cat into a yard of pitbulls, right? My response wasn't to do with your topic, only the wisdom of making this your choice of venue.

He hangs out on the paulsonator forums, if anyone wants to pay a visit.

Why, because everyones looking for an argument? If you dont like it get the fsck out! People like you make me sick. Its impossible these days to have a discussion without people getting OFFENDED, or insulted about something not even meant to offend.


This is just what I was talking about earlier, it happens here, and IRL. Society is walking on thin thin ice because they are always afraid to offend someone.

Ok, well I'd like to hear your opinions on whether its wrong or right. I have a theory myself, that I will tell you later, but first I want to hear what all you think, and why. No flaming guys, lets not get outta hand :)

Okay, a serious answer then. I believe homosexuality is a sin, not denying that it is a natural impulse of some people. However, I think violence is a natural impulse as well, and so is self-pity, and so are other types of lust. Doesn't mean I think that people who act on their homosexual impulses are any worse than the rest of us, because we all sin, or that they should be in any way abused. God allowed people the freedom to make choices, to sin, and we're in no position to overrule that.

Think I can avoid flames from my opinion? Probably not. And that's why threads like this cause trouble.
