your son is GAY???

I too know many religious gay people. I myself am not one of them, but I know many exist. Can't count how many of them are even in church choir and active participants in church activities.

Some of these people have been accepted for who they are, others still hide from fear of being unaccepted. For understandable reason.

I can't tell you how many of these debates I have been in where people can't back up homosexuality as being wrong without bringing religion into the equation. As stated, religion is belief, not fact. People are free to believe what they want, but that cannot be forced upon others.

Some argue that propogation of species is what makes homosexuality wrong and that homosexuals are weaker because they cannot reproduce. I don't really buy into this one either, because it is our life and we do with it what we choose. It doesn't really effect anyone else but ourselves. But unfortunately many people out there leave homosexuals with a choice... accept who they are and be unaccepted by many people, or deny who they are and spend their life either alone or forced to pretend they are happy with someone of the opposite sex.


I have yet to answer the question, I chose not to since I felt the question was geared more towards heterosexual parents, but I will put my $0.02 in now. If I had a kid, and found out my son (or daughter) was gay, I would accept that. A persons sexual preference does not define who they are, it's much deeper than that. If you were to "disown" someone because of their sexual preference, then chances are you don't know that person at all (or they just aren't that important to you)... otherwise even if you disagreed with it you could look past it.

Ironically that seems to be the going rate. At least with heterosexual males. Too many times have I seen the "lesbians are good, homosexual males are bad" mentality. you'd be surprised how much insight you get on how people really feel about homosexuality when they don't know the one they are talking to is homosexual

if they dont reproduce why are there so many of them? just messin

i had previousely also talked about gays and religion. Im gonna Blunt about it you cant be catholic or cristian and be gay at the same time. How do you figure it be consideeeeered a blasphemy by your beliefe but you practice this constantly?

I personaly dont care i have friends who are athies and jewish etc. and they dont believe in the sames thing i do so why exclude gay people i dont. i just think that religion and homosexuality dont go hand in hand.

Well being I am not religious, nor do I know anything about religion so I will not argue that side.

I do however think that homosexuals who practice religion feel that god made them that way, and they still have the right to be accepted as gods children.

I can't speak for them though.

everyone has there pov. i just dont agree with with certian aspects of religions and peoples veiw of it alot. But thats just me. i cant say i have alot of gay friends i honestly only have 2 and i think there cool people and thats what matters.

** pov = point of view

Some heterosexual men find the image of two lesbians together exciting. Being the sexual conqueror that he is, man sees two lesbians as potential conquests. A "let-me-just-slip-in-between-the-two-of-you" scenario; instead of one woman, he gets two. Of course the fact that they are lesbians, therefore not sexually attracted to him, is of no importance to a heterosexual man.

In the case of two men together, there is nothing for a heterosexual man to conquer, only the fear that he himself might be conquered -- which party explains why so many straight men believe and fear that all gay men must want to have sex with him. A very narcisistic view, for sure.



Good question. You can get into Clintonesque debates about what blasphemy really means
...
or you can take the matter directly to God and have an open, direct relationship with Him, without going through man-made institutions.
...
or you can find another religion, another way of connecting with the divine. Christianity is just one religion, one system of beliefs, among many.

I turned to Zen Buddhism. I liked their no-nonsense approach of sexuality, the self, and life in general. Nowadays I feel there are as many religions as there are human beings on this planet: we all have our own way finding our place in the bigger scheme of things.

Yes, I understand that, but it's still ironic none-the-less

I dont really care what u r. we are only discussing a matter here

Why gay people should not be allowed to get married

12 reasons why gay people should not be allowed to get married

1. Homosexuality is not natural, much like eyeglasses, polyester, and birth control.
2. Heterosexual marriages are valid because they produce children. Infertile couples and old people can't legally get married because the world needs more children.
3. Obviously, gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.
4. Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage is allowed, since Britney Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage was meaningful.
5. Heterosexual marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are property, blacks can't marry whites, and divorce is illegal.
6. Gay marriage should be decided by people, not the courts, because the majority-elected legislatures, not courts, have historically protected the rights of the minorities.
7. Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.
8. Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.
9. Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.
10. Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why single parents are forbidden to raise children.
11. Gay marriage will change the foundation of society. Heterosexual marriage has been around for a long time, and we could never adapt to new social norms because we haven't adapted to things like cars or longer lifespans.
12. Civil unions, providing most of the same benefits as marriage with a different name are better, because a "separate but equal" institution is always constitutional. Separate schools for African-Americans worked just as well as seperate marriages for gays and lesbians

Welcome to ozzu forum Prince@bood.

nice shot prince. sure u would have to live with it, but how would live with it.

Hmm, that's true, how can someone live with it...

Please tell me this post is a joke. Even if it is, it's not at all funny. Rather, incredibly immature.
