I don't approve of homosexuality and I'm not a homophobic

[Distorted_Rage]

Oh crap this is going to end in a shitstorm.

I was raised and taught a certain way and believe a man should be with another women.

I do not hate people because they're homosexual
I am 100% positive about my own sexuality
I have an opinion that I have every right to express due to the fact that it is based on my own understanding, upbringing, and it is not a hate speech.
It is foolish to think someone is a bigot or hasn't embraced their sexuality because they think this
way.
Saying that I don't have the right to say such a thing is more oppressive then the gay community goes through. Society (at least in the US) will accept homosexuality and will make other think the same.

Honestly, there isn't much worth discussing, but you're right, I am being petty, although I do consider it warranted.

So are you blatently trolling, or merely seeking validation for what you consider an unpopular opinion?

And apparently you're incapable of thinking for yourself.

Based on what?

Quote:

How excellent - you do not hate us, you merely believe we should not exist. Or am I misrepresenting your position and you'd like to tell me that I can exist, as long as I stop "being with" men? What does that mean exactly? Stop loving them? Stop sleeping with them? Stop ******** them up against walls in seedy clubs?

Quote:

How wonderful for you. So am I 3nodding

Your understanding is wrong, your upbringing is hateful, and while its not hate speech per say, it could be certainly interpreted as hateful.

Quote:

It is bigoted, but I wouldn't describe one as not having embraced their sexuality.

Quote:

You have a right to say such things, I have a right to call you a moron, and it is not as oppressive or more oppressive than what the gay community has suffered. Not by any stretch of the imagination.

Quote:

That hardly made sense...

Well, hell...we could say that about ANYONE in the ED...

[Distorted_Rage]

Yeah I am trolling a bit. biggrin

I can think for myself but I have been molded in a certain way. You could likely talk like that to someone else but no I am not a puppet.

Does it make any sense to be with someone of the same sex? Beyond your emotions which are somewhat valueless in life it doesn't make sense. being with someone of the same sex means no reproduction and there would be no need for two genders. it's simply impractical.

I don't expect you do anything different. Let the wicked do wicked but that doesn't mean say something.

Well we're on one accord there

It's not hateful. I'm simply stating what I believe. I'm tolerant of homosexuality and just because I don't agree that it is Okay does not make it hateful.

Worded that wrong. Basically I'm sure about my sexuality and my belief does not stem from worry of it.

Ok I was shaky about saying that myself but it seems that disagreeing with homosexuality is hate and what is wanted is to oppress those who disagree.

Again, my bad shitty wording. I think that the community that I'm in wants to shove this down our throats.

Let me also Ask do you think that it is possible do be against homosexuality without being a homophobe?

You have the right to say whatever you want. However, if you don't want people to think you're a bigot, do you at least have a reason why? "It's how I was raised," I'm afraid, isn't good enough, as it suggests you're too dumb to rethink things, which I don't think is the case.
Based on your own understanding, WHY is being gay wrong?

Should I give everything outright? Maybe but refer to the other post if you're that serious about seeing a reason.

Sir, we have the CIA's top cryptologists trying to decode what you just said. We also have a man standing in wait for your signature on a fat pay check commemorating your glorious contribution to human language. The check is to the sum of ONE GORILLION DOLLARS, because you make us so bananas.

On a serious note: You were told to adhere to a moral standard or burn in hell forever, not really what one would consider an 'opinion'.

That's not a metric for right and wrong.

Ah, ok. So you don't think homosexuality is "wrong" perse, you just don't consider it practical.
Question then. Shouldn't straight relationships be "wrong" too?

Quote:

Sex isn't a relationship. It's usually a part of one, sure. That does, however, answer my previous question.
Question. Does that mean someone who is sterile for whatever reason should not have a relationship? What about someone who's become paralyzed?

Furthermore, we have orphanages bloated with unwanted kids. Wouldn't allowing gay adoption create a BIG market for them that might help to reduce the number of kids in foster homes?
How's that for practical?
