Your opinion on homosexuality?

[Farnhamia]

But you're a native of Britain?

Yes ive lived here all my life.

And this is how you treat the Queen's English? Tsk.

*walks back over to the topic*

And what exactly is it that you have against homosexuals? They're disturbing because they don't meet your vision of what a man or a woman should act like? Is that it?

[Ifreann]

He's really not exaggerating. Such is life in Europe at the moment.

Disagree.

[Holy Windmill Empire]

U were sugesting that i was not educated.

No, I indicated my support for an increase in public education funding.

I quess of we could spend more on policing, but your right we could spend it in other areas.

[Salandriagado]

Irrelevant. You have absolutely no evidence of your claim.

It is relevent because if u live in britian u would have heard it.

I live (at least during the holidays) in the part of Britain with the highest immigrant population (by percentage) in the country. This is not something I have ever heard. I've heard plenty of people on the internet complaining about it happening, but there is no evidence of it ever actually happening.

[Viritica]

Homosexuals do indeed have every right to be together. They should have the same right heterosexuals do.

Sometimes people seem to forget that homosexuals are people too.

[Holy Windmill Empire]

This isnt the court im having a light conversation.

We're having a debate on a political forum. You're refusing to provide evidence for a claim. The debate is now pointless.

I didnt realise we were having a full scale debate.

[Batuni]

Ah.

Well, the Labour Government did have a habit of throwing the word 'racist' at anyone who suggested a cap on immigration.
On the plus side, they legalised Civil Unions.

Yes yes yes yeeeeeeeeeees, someone has experienced it aswell. yeeeeeees. and know there were two.

First, they lost power in the last elections, second, I mentioned Civil Unions in a subtle attempt to return to the original topic.

This isn't a full scale debate. In one of those you get to wear armor and use weapons. But this is a bit more than a "light conversation."

Wow im nto having ago at immigration, but people do discriminate against people with right wing views, its to do with the bbc which is quit left wing.

It's a debate and discussion forum. When you make a claim here, people expect that you'll support it, otherwise we tend to assume you made it up.

That's what I'm wondering. I think he was using a derogatory term for homosexuals then this turned into a religious debate, then a debate about hippies.

[Holy Windmill Empire]

Oh right yes i ques they did, but u do agree with me about them calling everyone racist.

No one "discriminates" based on political views. The right wing gets bashed a lot because they are insane, but they aren't discriminated against.

[Riffasia]

I think there is often a lot of confusion over exactly what people mean when they say homosexuality. One way to look at this confusion is to look at more specific definitions of love. The Greeks recognized three forms and I'll propose rough english equivalents: phileo (friend/like people who might lend you a fewbucks or enjoy some experiences with you), agape (love, people who would die for you or raise your children if you did), eros(lust, people who want your body for sensual pleasure).

Most people who take issue with homosexuality (and non-marital sex in general) are only concerned with eros, and only define homosexuality in terms of the sexual activities and recognize persons of same sex may have deep relations in the agape sense without it being connected with eros. Many fans of homosexuality blend agape and eros into a continuum, sometmes associating same-sex agape wih being gay, to the point that two men who historically had a close relationship are often suggested as being gay.

One cultural impact of the latter interpretation is for males in particular to go to lengths to suppress or avoid expressions of same-sex agape for fear that it will interpreted as eros. In today's world it is difficult for a male to say "I love you" to another male, meaning agape, without it automatically being interpreted as eros. This has the potential to degrade the quality of relationships between members of the same sex where expression and mutual sharing of agape is avoided too avoid incorrect association of eros. In a culture where the border between agape and eros are more sharply defined, there is potential that the quality of same-sex relationships may be better because there is less suppression of expression of agape in avoidance of communicating eros.

Why don't men embrace and kiss each other's cheeks as they once did and yet do in some cultures? Did they suddenly become ungay, or was such kissing and embrace once safely understood to be agape and not confused with eros?

I thought this was a more small scale debate not full scale.

Provide evidence. Besides which, in the course of the rambling mess that you've turned this topic into, you have (in order) ranted against homosexuals, hippies, immigrants and liberals (unless I missed a few).

[Holy Windmill Empire]

really, oh ok.

Debate is still debate, no matter the scale. Evidence is required for any claim.

That's nice. I live in Ireland and I can't say I've seen anything of the sort.

I do love NSG, don't you?
