Hmmm I don't know why people choose to be close minded. I was raised Catholic and I'm bi. No way in hell am I telling my really religious mother though. She would flip... so to keep the peace whenever I go home, I just live the way she thinks I should. By the way, I love your sig. heart

I too am bisexual. However, the primarily flawed aspect of your question is when you say "so your religion tells you its wrong, so what?"
Religion serves as guiding principles in people's lives to such an extent that it becomes a device for control. This is illustrated through such events as the Crusades and other atrocities committed at the hands of religious back up. Don't get me wrong, I too am religious. However, people are naturally close minded and afraid of the unknown, and the slippery slope arguments religion spurts out takes people by hold. They think that rejecting one aspect of their religion will make them "not a good Christian" and that "blind faith" is the mechanism through which to believe.
That, to me, is why the religious community rejects homosexuality.

i understand where you are coming from, i seem to get a lot of hassle from people because of my sexuality, i'm bi. I personally think we live in a world that has been brain washed by our ancestors. I mean, if it wasn't for them perhaps looking down at people with different preferences then this generation would most likely not be bothered... i suppose it's the way people have been brought up.
I don't think being bi is something to be ashamed of, i mean, if i really think about it, to be of one sexual preference is probably worse, not that i'm against people who only "bend one way" but i think that if you can only love a certain gender isn't that kinda shallow in a sense?? only having love for the ones who have certain physical features, when your soul mate could be out there as the opposite gender you are interested in. i hope i haven't offended anyone by this, this is just my opinion, and everyone is entitled to one, i mean.. if we we all had the same opinions life would be dull.. right?? xX

I don't follow any known religion, I only follow my own way of living and when people think they're lucky having homosexual partners, they may do it, but they should leave me alone with it, I am simply not gay or bi and I am absolutely not curious about homosexual experiences.

Okay, I don't really know anyone who is gay, but the thing is why do people care. To be honest I don't really care wither someone is gay/bi. I just think if someone is bi/gay then why should other people be against it or really care wither or not that person is gay/bi. I just think if that person is gay/bi than they will still be themselves. I just don't really care wither or not someone is gay/bi. But that's just me, I mean I can see why some people are like that but do they really have to take it that far to shun that person just because they are what they are? I just don't see why they can't just let it go.

Religion is meant to foster good values, people just might perceive things differently. Being homosexual (I refuse to use gay, it initially means happy) or bisexual isn't morally wrong to me. A few of my family friends are homosexual (But aren't openly screaming it).
The only problem I have some of them is the way display it. Some are perfectly discreet about it (If you do the same, so will I), while others yell at the top of their lungs about the dirty thing they did with their mate.

Some people are okay with it, but does not mean that they want to ever be one.
I am bi, and I am in a way religious. I don't let religion shove itself in my throat
I don't know why some don't like it. Maybe their religion has got the best of them, or they are just homophobic

I'm not 'for gays/bis' in the sense that I'm promoting them, but I'm have no objection to anyone that just so happens to be homosexual or bisexual, or any other kind of sexual.
I will say that I'm against promiscuous sex, and frankly I think a lot of us would be better off if we just waited until we were married before screwing, but the marriage age keeps rising, and I don't expect people to be 30+ and a virgin unless they feel it's the right decision for their life.
I am for legalizing same-sex marriage, and I think every insurance policy that extends to cover a spouse of the opposite sex should recognize a partner of the same-sex if the couple have been together long enough to qualify as a common-law marriage.
As a straight Christian, I've often wondered if God really cares who it is that you love, so as long as you love faithfully. I've decided that he just doesn't.
Screw Leviticus, God said the Ten Commandments are the laws we are meant to follow, and thar be no mention of butt pirates. And Christ freed us of the old way - of the Old Testament - so, yeah.
EDITZ: And I'll probably be flamed for this, but I happen to think that a good chunk of the non-heterosexual teenagers of the world [particularly the bisexuals] aren't really what they think/say they are. Teen years = HORMONES GO CRAZY LYK WOAH! A large number of the gay/bi friends I had in high school have since stopped claiming those identities and focused all of their sexual attentions on the opposite sex. There is a friend that still lives a lesbian lifestyle, but the others, it seems, have not.
My point is that I can't stand listening to teenagers proclaim their sexualities so early on. WAIT until the hormones settle and the brain can actually function in a capacity that doesn't focus so highly on sex, what others think about you, and prom.

Being gay/bi also became the cool thing to do for a while, it may still be, I'm a bit out of touch.
In response to the comment on the ten commandments, it maybe so but He did quite the number on Sodom and Gomorrah where there was a lot of gay activity going on.
Scientifically, homosexuality serves no purpose. Sex is solely for the propagation of species. Gay sex cannot preform this task. But then scientifically love serves no purpose either.
In the end what you do is your own business and acceptance means very little in the end if you don't like what it makes you.

Sex is not soley for the purpose of reproduction. The mere fact that human beings have sex for fun proves that, and we aren't the only species that has sex for fun, either.
And since you brought up Sodom and Gomorrah, I've always thought that a town in which it would be a community event to gang-rape a man's guests, ANGELS no less, has bigger issues than 'sexual deviance'. Who's to say that it would have mattered what sex Lot's guests were? I can't imagine it would have been a very different situation if two women had come to visit him.
A town where everyone shows up to a man's house to rape his guests has a lot more evil in it than homosexuality. Of course, calling homosexuality 'evil' only works if you consider loving someone a sin.

People have raped claiming they loved the person and also have murdered for the same reason.
And sex for fun is only because it releases chemicals that make us feel good. Scientifically it still only serves to propagate the species, why do you think so many children are born from those sex for fun sessions.
