You're not. Homosexuality should not be welcome anywhere. It is a sin.
Then why don't you get stoning him as that is what the Bible tells you to do, no?
Doesn't it also tell you, that you have the right to purchase people as slaves?
Get out of here dupe account and learn to think for yourself. The only cancer upon society are people like you that discriminate against people and would deny them rights because of your inconsistent, illogical beliefs. People like you treated black people as second-class citizens for most of the United States' history, people like you condoned the slavery system in the American South, and people like you continue to crusade against homosexuals.

How can people be this ignorant ?

To the homosexual members who have replied to this thread and affirmed they are part of no agenda, may I ask. Why do you feel the need to include yourself on an agenda that doesn't exist?
Example:
I say there is a sexually deviant agenda which uses equal rights of homosexuals to spread a subliminal message of propaganda that encourages sexual deviancy up to and including pedophilia, not merely homosexual sex.
The first thought most of you have jumped to is "homophobic", why is that? I have not said I am against equal rights for homosexuals, I have not suggested that homosexuality makes you a member of this agenda. Nor am I even stating that it's an agenda in the classical sense such as a conspiracy.
It is merely a select group of overly zealous and flamboyant individuals who hide under the umbrella of equal rights.
They exist, stop pretending they don't.
If I said, "2% of the world are simple minded idiots". Would you feel the need to say, "we aren't idiots!", or use a little common sense and think to yourself, "well he's not talking about me".
"But you used the generic term 'gay' which includes me". Yeah it's generic, but don't stop reading at that word, continue to 'agenda' i.e. "gay agenda".
Can anyone else see how this is exactly like the Zionist vs Muslims threads? You hear a word and suddenly your programming kicks in, your mind is made up and you violently oppose any rational assertions because it would destroy the mental construct you have created for yourself.
So the term is overgeneralized, that doesn't make it any less valid.
There are deviants using equal rights for LGBT to spread a sexual message, that's the reality. Whether you call it the "gay agenda" in general or "cookies and cake". The issues presented are still valid.edit on 20-12-2010 by mryanbrown because: typo(s)
EDIT:
@Nyteskye
Ever watch any gay pride parades? They are not PG/PG-13. They border on breaking the law, and have a plethora of dry humping.
Does this mean all or most do? No, just a few, but homosexuals need to remember that those few are also representative of their movement for equal rights.
Tran-sexual men, exposing their breasts in public... Which right does that fall under?edit on 20-12-2010 by mryanbrown because: (no reason given)

You are God's children, regardless of whether you choose to accept him or not. Homosexuality is a sin against god, one, which you will have to answer for at some point. I am sorry that you choose not to accept Jesus into your heart, I will pray for your salvation. It isn't hatred if the person is committing a sin against God.

If your religon is the real one, and God is an arragont,ignorant,primitive thinking,big headed,hate driven etc Then i will gladly go to hell. If God is like what you think he is like (if real, then i doubt he is like that) then i would never ever worship him. My arms will be open to the devil as im sure he is not as bad as people make him out to be.

In spite of Velvetsplash's wonderful advice about not furthering this thread... I feel compelled to make one more contribution to this *ahem* discussion.
I have noticed that much of the rhetoric, presented by those who support the OP, tends to follow an alarmingly uninformed tactic... The equation of homosexuality as nothing more than a physical act. I find this to be an absolutely uninformed and ridiculous way of seeing things.
I am not gay, but the relationships that I have had, in the past, and in the present, were predominantly NOT based upon sexuality. There are a couple of exceptions to this rule. But, for the most part, the women I have shared my time and bed with were much more than just sexual interests. They were precious and valued friends. They were my primary companions - during the periods of time that we shared. Sex was a wonderful and important aspect of our shared intimacies. But it was not the primary connection or bond. And, frankly, I would have literally thrashed anyone who might have had the poor taste to suggest such things, had anyone done so.
Because of that, I find it highly disrespectful and offensive that people, here, in this thread, would demean the relationship between two consenting adults - regardless of gender... That people would grotesquely minimize a beautiful bond into nothing more than sexual rhetoric.
I guess if you are going to bash an entire people... The first necessary step is to dehumanize them and every aspect of their lives. The only problem here is that, by doing so, you utterly invalidate your own reputability and nullify any opinion you might have sought to make.

You have made a valuable point. That is, not only are people being conditioned to accept abhorrence, they are also being brainwashed into believing that discrimination against Christians for their beliefs is completely acceptable.

So is masturbation
Yes.
Genesis 38:8-10 states that when Onan refused to have sex with the woman and masturbated, he was put to death.
premarital sex
Yes, it is called "Sexual immorality"
Jude 7: In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.
and contraception
Yes.
Lev. 21:17,20 states crushed testicles are called a defect and a blemish before God. God reveals that deliberate sterilization and any other methods which prevent conception are intrinsically evil.
along with not kill a goat in the right way.
Don't know. Maybe.
Are you telling me you don’t practice any of these sins.
I didn't have premarital sex, use contraception or kill a goat.
I say this as a Catholic, a realistic one.

Your religon and a few others that is. Im not brainwashed, far from it, but it sounds like you are. I live a good life, i am nice to people who are nice to me. I like to help people whenever i can because i like too. Now, you are the religous one here, and its not me spreading hate, but the so called peace loving religous person. Now, what does that tell you?
You really think, an all powerful God. A God who is lovomh and peaceful to his "children" will condem a gay person. You really think that! just because some primitive people wrote a stupid book and said they ,were the words from God! lol
Do i think you are a peaceful person? certainly not! Do i think if the devil showed itself to you and said "follow me and you can have anything you want" you would say yes? Yes, i do because people like you can't live without hate. You need it! Just like other people like you.need it. Your religon has been against gays,non white people,women, non religous people, other religons to name just a few. And lets not forget all the children who have been horribly abused by the so called men of God.
Im sorry, but religon is a complete joke!
Does that sound peaceful to you?

It would seem that the only recoup that the gays have on this thread is ridicule and name calling.This makes you look weak and stupid. Is this how you talk to the children when you are trying to convince them how "natural" homosexuality is??.
There is plenty of proof (if thats really what you want)agenst being gay but I bet you forgo the people dieing of AIDS and related disease's or somehow don't accept that AIDS is an gay perpetuated disease.Do you warn the children of the possiable consequense's of a gay lifestyle?If you were true in your belief that homosexuality is normal you would be truthfull about everything involving the lifestyle.
Flame on gay people,flame on,that seems to be the only recoup you have when someone offends you.
