That's cool, so follow your own rules, and live by them. Do not use your beliefs to judge others, do not use your belief to tell someone that they are living in sin, do not use your beliefs to hide your own hatred. The whole gay rights thing has nothing to do with you, as you are not gay. It doesn't have any impact on your life, so just ignore it. Why run around getting all biblical at people, becasue they are different? It is using the bible, the supposed word of God, to propegate your own hatred. And it doesn't even effect you one little bit. How do you think your vengeful God will view that?

Sad thing is, that little moral goes right over your head, doesn't it. Think about what Jesus could have been implying, in a broader sense. Then look back at your posts and see how many stones you've thrown in judgment.

When the adulteress was brought to Jesus, He did say let him without sin cast the first stone. Then he told the sinner to go and sin no more.
In the Bible scene, you'll recall that everyone walked away without throwing stones. There was no one without sin. You just take the Bible thing too far. As Christians we recognize what is sin and what is not, true. But you see we aren't lobbying for sin to be made acceptable and righteous, even fashionable for that matter. There is no way you can put one of your hotheaded little kneejerk propagandist BS lines on that. But you can TRY. And I have every confidence you will.
Next.
if you knew, how much pain and suffering that your way of thinking has caused, if you knew how many kids kill themselves, because they've been phsycologically tortured by views like that. So much so that they can't bare it any longer, made to hate themselves so much that they can't even look in the mirror. All because of nasty, horrid, twisted views from people who are supposed to follow the word of a man who said "love thy neighbour" From the very people who should know better.
And people have the flat our gaul, to say that it's what God wants. Well I'm sorry, but I find that utterly repugnent.

Well there are lots of anomolies in evolution, but if I understand evolution correctly it rewards good anomolies by passing on those good anomolies through reproduction. Where am I wrong?
Also, you are jut making stuff up when you say homosexuality is triggered by over population. What do you think, that your DNA reads the newspaper and believes we are over populated? If what you say is even remotely true, then you would expect that no rural people would ever be gay because their body would not perceive over populaton in a rural, low population setting. I thnk your theory was disproven by Gomer Pyle on the Andy Griffith Show.

So you are saying that every teenager that had sex wth an adult didn't do it willingly and that every animal that has sex with a human doesn't find pleasure in it?

If nature hated gays so much, then gayness would be erradicatd. That's evolution at work (and evolution can be entwined with intelligent design btw) Yet it keep popping up, absolutly everywhere, all the time. So is nature (ie-God) wrong? Are you saying thyat God is wrong to make people who are gay, and want to fully emberse the gay life style?

I can't even respond correctly because you're going in circles now with strawmen...

Very perceptive. See if you start out at the point that thinking people are gay from conception then you must say gayness is dna related and therefore would be eradicated over time through evolution.

The pathetic desperation here is really childish, and a waste of time.
To suggest that I or ANYONE would actually consider every person who puts a shout out to homosexuals is homosexual themself, is moronic to put it mildly. But that's what people do when they are desperate and don't have a firm foundation. Take a deep breath now.
And I did edit my previous post to say OR proponents of homosexuality. But would it really be that horrible to be inadvertently misidentified as a homosexual?

What if gayness is caused by a gene that mutates spontaneously due to some unknown cause in the enviroment?
reply to post by Mr Sunchine
That is a bit of a what if, but if that were true then wouldn't that mean homosexuality is just a birth defect like Down's Syndrome and that we have a responsibility to work to find a solution to repair the gene before it affects the child at birth?
reply to post by MurderCityDevil
ive always wondered on people who are antigay or so against it
what they would do if their children came out to them, what would they do? shun their kids? or embrace and love them for WHO they are not WHAT they are
Who decides what genes are defective? How is that decided? It's easy to agree that we would want to fix physical deformities that hinder movement, etc....but selecting a gene for behavior? Not sure I wanna tackle that debate. It's almost nap time.

Great points. What do you have to say about the research where you can insure an animal has no gay offspring simply by giving the mother hormone supplements during pregnancy?
To me, that tends to lead to the idea that homosexuality is due to some form of chemical or hormonal imbalance and so is just the result of a problem like how kids who are born to drug addicted mothers are more likely to have issues with brain function and chemistry.
