You are aware that the Bible preaches 'love thy neighbour' and 'hate the sin not the sinner' and general tolerance, right? I'd reccomend reading the New Testament a bit.

It doesn't mean "Love thy neighbor" as in "BE GAY AND RUIN EVERY STRAIGHT PERSON'S LIFE"


And how, pray, does that work?

Wait, are you suggesting that all homosexuals AREN'T overdressed men with silly mustaches? The popular media has been lying to me again!

I may be young, and that's okay. Since age does not always bring wisdom. I may be stubborn to the point of stupidity; but at least I fight for my beliefs. I may be fooled by a lie; but I can then say I trusted. My heart may get broken however, then I can say I truly loved. With all this said I have lived. :D

I never quite got this debate. Does it matter either way? Their still gay and they're still people, whether or not it's a choice doesn't change anything.

what era do you come from honestly!? its like a mind from the 1950's with all of the old preconceptions, have you under possession.

I dont really see any benefit in winding back societies clock back to that age, this is the 21st century, its about dropping all the old preconceptions of last century and projecting yourself as far into the future as possable while being an exemplar of humanity. Sexuality will NOT be an issue in the future. Society will be feminized to ditch the social chauvanism that has conditioned people into these strict gender roles for thousands of years. Women dont all wear dresses any more, women can have short hair, infact women have really come to terms with their inner masculinity however its the male species that is having a hard time coming to terms with their inner femininity and if you continue to repress an issue or aspect of your life it can manifest into a negative direction.... Besides the whole "Live and let live" Philosophy on life I usually find gets you further, God loves tolerance and understanding over Misunderstanding, descrimination and hate

So you've never heard "If you're gay you won't go to heaven?"


So god descriminates and hates his own children? If I told my parents I was gay my parents would show more compassion and love then this homophobic diety you follow so basically mere mortals can show more love and compassion then God can??? sounds like God and your church still needs to learn some lessons in tolerance, understanding and compassion, most humans have already learnt those lessons so when your ready to join the rest of humanity in the 21st century which im sure you will one day. (Usually if a human doesnt click or understand that god is sending them a lesson in tolerance and love the lesson gets more and more intense until it slaps you in the face, a close friend may come out as gay to you, if you dont accept him or show understanding, tolerance and be a friend then I think God will have to teach you the lesson in another way like perhaps..... giving you a gay son when you become a parent so your forced to deal with taht issue youve been repressing and if you still dont get or pass that lesson your child could die before you can resolve the conflict which I cant imagine would feel good)

How do gay people ruin every straight person's life? Do they have, like, a magic life-ruining machine? Or is it just that I'm meant to go, "AHHHH! I just saw a gay person! All the happiness in my life has been sucked away into a black hole of pure fabulousness! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Because, y'know, I'm afraid I've never said that. Although now that you've put the idea in my head, I may have to sometime, solely for the amusement value.

To be fair, when the glory of your visage is enough to obliterate all who stand before you, then it's kinda hard.

Plus, wouldn't it sort of be incest considering he created everyone?
