Totally wrong.. disgusting... against the bible.
You are not born with it.
If you are a homo you need a good whipping to get it out of you like they used to do it in the old days. It used to be classified as a sickness... should've stayed that way.
They are trying to get homoism into schools.. to teach in health class their up the butt routine.
Expanding to fast.
Threat to the future.
To the future of your kids.
Blah.
Flame.
Here's an interesting topic.
About 2 years ago I was a Christian (haha, go figure) and was deeply against homosexuality, but now my stance has changed:
From a purely biological standpoint, it is undeniably counter-intuitive and certainly promotes Darwinism. It is undoubtedly a spit in the face of nature, and although there are rare exceptions such as "lesbian monkeys" (who, to my best recollection, did nothing more than wash each other), it is not observed anywhere else in the natural world.
But who cares about nature? We may not have been intended by nature to have intercourse with members of the same sex, just as we were not intended by nature to smoke cigarettes, to wear clothes, to use computers, to apply skincare products, to be excessively fat, to be overly skinny -- just to name a few. How is nature relevant in any sense of the word? How is nature's stereotype helpful to our understanding of sexual preference? I do however think that homosexuality is spouted from an environmental cause, not genetic foundation (nurture over nature).
So my view is that I cannot understand it, like I cannot understand many things. The cultural conservative in me dislikes it from a moral perspective, but my more liberal side argues for the support of human deviation -- I have my own perversions, dislikeable character traits and shortcomings which many will find incomprehensible, so who am I to judge? What has gender got anything to do with it? At the end of the day so long as they don't interfere with me, what people do in their personal life is absolutely none of my business, just as mine is nothing of theirs. To quote Stephen Fry,
"What you do with your penis or your bottom or anything else is so supremely irrelevant in a moral sense. It's what we do with our personalities and other people that matters."On the flip side, what I hate with a passion is the political correctness surrounding homosexuality and its status being forced as equivalent to heterosexuality (fuck you with your legislation, British Labour Party). Where it is being pressed onto children as young as nine is a horrible, horrible thing. Gay adoption is another nasty idea which disgusts me, because regardless of the love the child will receive, he/she still needs both male and female influences in life (especially in the early stages - women have a womb and breasts for a reason, for fucks sake), not to mention the bullying the child will receive in the current social climate. People need to focus on what's best for the child, just as single mothers do not qualify for adoption. Yes, I promoted my understanding of deviation from nature earlier, but with such fundamental building blocks in life it's difficult to stray from nature's intended path.
What is equally strange is the gay stereotype, with a camp voice, vivid dress sense et al. I am aware that homosexuality has its own subculture, but the alteration of voice is dumbfounded, and although, as aforementioned, a stereotype, it still rings true a lot of the time; not just on TV.
So in effect, another fence sitter for me.

Wow Tom...long post, I read a few paragraphs and my head started to hurt rofl...
My view on this is the ones who do it for attention (Like with ones with short shorts, poodles, and that gay lisp

) are really just stupid but the ones who are just normal people...for example, Will (top right corner) at first glance you could not tell he is gay...But Jack is pretty obvious...:

Also, change the title to Homosexuals, Homo by itself can mean a few different things

I too hate this, people like Alan Carr, Julian Clary, for some reason apparently it's funny to slip in as much homosexual innuendo as possible, it's not like we have straight comedians that slip in a reference to sex in everything they say, one trick pony is all I can say and an unfunny trick at that.

People have a right to their bodies. As for schools, I would say that's a result of the lack of separation between State and School. The Federal Government takes over education, and that attracts the special interests that would like frivolous topics like these to be discussed.
In short, free markets and private schools (subject to the parents' desires, not special interest) would benefit education (both in cost and in subject matter/quality). Less Government is needed.
In a free market, if one private school starts to teach about homosexuality in health classes, and people don't like that, a few things would happen:
1. The parents who pay for the services of the school would probably take their kid out of that school; if enough parents do this, it would put significant pressure on the school to stop teaching of such frivolous topics.
2. If public opinion turns against the school, other independent schools will capitalize on this; thus taking the customers from the other school.
This is really all about competition. When the Government centralizes and monopolizes something, it stifles all competition. In a free market (all private entities are subject to the judgment of the consumer), any monopoly would be very unlikely, and if one did exist it would be because it offers the best services.
Basically: Who can compete with the Government? It has guaranteed funding, and, when centralized, is bound to attract special interests.

What a random take on the topic, ignoring the morality and reasoning of it as one would have thought, instead choosing to focus in a rather ignorant and ethnocentric manner to the US economy via an insignificant blip in the first post.
I believe that people have a right to do whatever they want aslong as they don't harm anyone else. So yeah, gay people can do what they want, get married etc.
But that doesn't mean i don't think gay people are kinda strange and somewhat disgusting.

Well, the first post really didn't have much reasoning or argument. He just kind of claimed that it is somehow "immoral" to be gay. The only thing that he said which even seemed remotely like an argument was his claim that schools are trying to "teach homoism."
I choose to focus on the economic aspect because there's absolutely nothing interesting about the morality of homosexuality.

i guess hitler (and not Hitler coz he doesnt deserve the "H") was right somehow...
i am totaly against homosoxuality because it is against everything.
the problem is NOT homosexuality it self, you have the right to do what ever you want with your body, fuck with an other guy is not my business.
Knowing that its cool to see 2 girls having sex, seeing 2 guys having sex is totaly different. well that shows how homosexuality is nto the problem at all.
Seing 2 guys on street kissing each other ill just say its HUUUUUUUU but ok.. fine.. not my problem anyways :
PROBLEM IS :
this thing starts to grow... its like all this muslim bullshit.... not that i am against... but look :
we all talk about racism and stuff... but where does racism come from actualy ? its from them... since when ? well they are the ones that said - well actualy Mahomet said : i will have to punish fataly punish - who ever doesnt not trust in Alah... so its a kind of discrimination somehow... or a type of racism... allowing nothing but their religion.
well with the homosexual people its gonna turn the same... you people might think i am crazy at the moment but look :
50 years ago, seing an homosexual was like ...

OMG wtf is that all about ?
10 years ago, it was NOT common... but we could see it, and use to talk about it
nowadays we see homosexual everywhere... and one problem just came
In france : homosexual are asking to adopt kids and be known as parents.
homosexual are asking to be able to be married inside a Church.
wtf is that all about ? they are asking to be known as same people as others - yet they are not. at least for the most of us.
and you might say i am doing discrimination - well i am not - Homosexuality is just a variant of all... its like the Protestant, ortodox,.. or what ever... Sunit and Shiit... the homosexuals are just an other type of people...
i am only scared that one day they will be like anyone else when they are not... its like asking to much at once... TOOO much...
But i respect them more than anyone... and even respect more the ones that shw it coz they admit it and are not scared to show it... i have homosexual friends... i talk to them... and they understand my point of view.
its just going to far.... but thats my opinion.. only mine...

Seriously, what is actually wrong with being a homosexual? I for one, am not a homosexual (but bow that I'm defending them you'll probably just accuse I am, you bastards

).
For one - God is a hypocritical prick. And the Bible is bullshit. Sorry to piss on your parade and go all anti-Christ on you, but I really couldn't a rats ass. I DO NOT believe in God, nor do I believe homosexuals should be declined their spiritual/religious beliefs.
Homosexuals have just as much right as you are. It's just like Tom said, we weren't intended on doing hunreds of things this so called "nature" intended. Hell you have porn and masturbation, do you think nature or your precious God wanted you to do that? No, didn't think so. For one, masturbation is not a form of reproduction.
As for homosexual adoption, I couldn't care less. But if it were me, I'd probably go for a surrogate anyway. At least that way my child would actually have a mother he/she KNOWS. Unlike an adopted one where all you know is you have two fathers/mothers and don't know who the hell are your real parents.
I seriously depise people who cannot accept homosexuals for who they are. That's just outright descrimination. And I believe homosexual people should be given equal rights just like heterosexuals are (ever heard of the Human Rights Act? Or are we all just assholes here?).
If a homosexual wants to get married, then so bloody be it! They wanna adopt, then go right ahead! The only quarral I'll ever have with one is if they ever try to get it on with me. Because I have no objection to kicking them in the nuts if so be it -- that IMO, cheapshot as it may be, will get most people to fuck off.

I am a strong believer of the Human Rights Act. And a lot within it may never be accomplished to a good extent, but we can at least try!
Sure, homosexuals are "sinners" in the eyes of the "almighty God." So fucking what? At least they believe in something (sure, something I may not believe in, but so what?) unless of course, well, they don't (and that's inevitable people). However, I have never seen a christian answer me the question, as to why homosexuals really aren't accepted as christians themselves.
And don't give me that bullshit about "it's wrong in the eyes of God" because I honestly don't give a rats ass about God (again, no offense to religious people). I thought God was merciless (or merciful? I can't tell, which one is it? He's either one or the other but you people keep saying he's both! MAKE UP YOUR FREAKING MIND DAMN IT!) and I also thought everyone on earth was "built" (for lack of a better word) in God's image. If this is so true, then how come we all look different, are not treated as equals (which is one of our rights as a human) and in general, assholes?

Also, Christ didn't even mention homosexuality during his lifetime. It's mentioned in the OT and some of the NT, but not directly addressed by Christ himself. If something is so fundamentally wrong and its members are not to be followers, then surely this should have been answered?
QUOTE(Leviticus 18:22)
Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable.
but to put things in context, this is amidst other biblical law along with stuff like (pulled randomly from Leviticus):
QUOTE(Leviticus 13:45)
The person with such an infectious disease must wear torn clothes, let his hair be unkempt, cover the lower part of his face and cry out, 'Unclean! Unclean!
LOL!
Add to this the fact that the first five books of the OT containing most of the law were not even composed by Moses through God, rather mortals appointed by figures of authority to work with the social climate, and it's possible to superficially debase the traditional Christian view of homosexuality.

Bleh, God is bullshit. If God existed a lot of people should already be in Hell and/or dead by now. God is a hypocrite and contradictive. He doesn't like homosexuals and yet, Christians state his love for all his children (hypocritical), he doesn't like homosexuals yet humans are made in his image (meaning he must be gay as well).
Alex
Nov 24 2007, 12:18 PM
Wait, exactly what steps of logic have led you to "God must be gay"? I'm not seeing the progression... They were created in his image, but he also gave them free will so they could choose to do whatever they wanted. For that reason, people today needn't have anything much to do with him in the choices they make and the things they do.
Also, the fact that God loves all his children is not a problem for those arguing against homosexuality because they think it's against christianity. Their implication is that they are /not/ one of God's children, because of blaspheming or whatever.
I don't believe in christianity, but I still don't think your assertions are particularly valid.
