Re: accepting gay as normal

I understand that it is perfectly normal to like mayonnaise, its a perfectly normal ingredient on food, and most people like it. However, I personally just can't stand the white slimy stuff! You see, I understand that just because I personally don't like something, doesn't mean everyone else must also not like it too. I understand that everyone is different and has their own unique individual tastes.

You are right about everything here except the mayonaise, there is soemthing seriously wrong with you if you dont like mayonaise
 
Re: accepting gay as normal

I think your saying the legalization of pot does not affect the amount of its use and of course I do not agree. Would you also say that dropping the age limit for the consumption of alcohol to 16 would not raise the incident of teen drinking. I don't agree with that either.
Legalizing same sex relationships does increase how many occur because those who are homosexual or bisexual will now feel they dont have to hide their feelings or their relationships due to it being legal. It doesnt mean heterosexuals will now want to have sex with people of the same sex. The feelings of attraction would not be there unless they were actually bisexual or homosexual.

Re: accepting gay as normal

This isnt that hard....in these situations, you can choose one of two methods....on the one hand, you have kids who are curious about sex and choose to explore it with each other willingly...on the other, you have a kid who is curious about sex and chooses to explore it with an unaware and possibly unwilling partner.

You choose to defend the latter. That says something about you.

One is kids being kids.....the other is sexual assault.
And much younger. There is a huge gap between a 15 year old and 10 year olds.

Re: accepting gay as normal

Hey, great solution. If you can't control it just legalize it. Why don't we just legalize all the other stuff we can't seem to control also like petty crimes, running toll booths, jumping turnstyles, spitting on the sidewalk. jaywalking, tax cheating, lying on the witness stand and on and on. Sound like liberal utopia to me.
Do you even understand the difference between crimes that harm people in some tangible way and those that dont?

Re: accepting gay as normal

I watch a show called "A million little things". On this show, there is a little boy who is at the age where same sex experimentation takes place. He is outwardly gay. He is intelligent, likeable, and actually an all around great boy. His coming out was treated as a great thing, and his gayness is celebrated on the show. Before I go any further, I believe sexual orientation is not a choice, and for whatever reason, some of us are born gay. I don't view it as good , bad or indifferent, but as something that was written in our DNA.
So my problem with that particular show, is it will be seen by millions of young kids, many of which are going through their "experimental phase", that will believe they must be gay, because they become sexually aroused when this experimentation takes place. Then, as they pass through puberty, and they begin being aroused by girls, and not boys, how confusing will that be. Especially if they were "openly gay". And to be clear, I believe we are all born with our sexual orientation, and there's no way to change it. My daughter came out shortly after high school. She said she didn't realize this fully until after puberty. I don't believe sexual orientation can be determined until puberty or after.

If you are born that way you will figure it out eventually. How about we let gay kids know that we are not ashamed of who they are

To your statement, I agree. To your question, I never said "we" were "ashamed" of anything.

If you are not ashamed of something....you have no problem if someone celebrates it

Hey, it's a free country. People can celebrate anything they want. If you want to celebrate somebody's sexual preference, knock yourself out.

Can you or any other conservatives explain the process of being forced to accept gay people? Who is forcing you and what is the process of you being forced to accept them? Do LGBT people harass you on the street with petitions or do they know on your door at 8:00 am on Saturday and harass you as Mormons and Nazareenes do?

I have many LGBT friends but they have never mentioned this accepting process, so I'm kind of in the dark about what you have been forced to undergo at their evil hands. What would happen if you don't accept them? Do they glitter bomb you, your house, your car, and your pets as reprisal? Are their hostile makeovers threatened?

I will. Thanks. Feel free to complain about it
 
Re: accepting gay as normal

lol. Never heard that one.

I think it's in the DNA. Being gay is not a personal choice.

But, do you know for sure it's DNA? The last study I saw suggests it's Biological and not Genetic. Then, again, I've also seen where it's environmental. Then, again, it could be just the carnal evil nature of man that stirs up the curiosity of desire for the same-sex attraction. Then, again, I know lesbians who hate men because they were raped and brutalized and have dealt with their abuse through gay love. I think, you think, who knows, right? What I do know is God has said not to have sexual relations outside a legally and lawful marriage between a man and a woman of heterosexual sexual relations.

But, can they really? Are we free to do whatever we want? Well, I guess the liberal left are pushing that. But, that's just to overthrow our Constitution. What they really want to do is to take away our freedom of religious exercise and belief. They want to take away our rights to defend ourselves from a corrupted government by taking away the guns that could do it.

You can do whatever you want inside your church.


But you might get upset if we tried to make Christian marriage illegal
 
Re: accepting gay as normal

Gays are not normal, they are exceptional! Like people who are left handed, or have a genius IQ.

If that's the case, they shouldn't advocate things that impose on others, specifically things that impose on people for exercising their religious beliefs.

Also, seeking to be royalty by wanting crimes to have enhanced punishment depending on who the victim is.

You make a valid point. It may not be the LGBTs themselves, rather virtue signalers ostensibly acting on their behalf.

Why am I forced to accept Christians?

Those "virtue signalers" force you to accept gay people? How?
 
Re: accepting gay as normal

Same goes for gays

There's one difference. If someone wants to listen to a Christian speaker, even if they are not Christian themselves, LGBT activists want to make that choice for them and censor that speaker.
 
Re: accepting gay as normal

They attempt to limit who's speech is available to hear. I'm speaking as an attendee of events that gays want to censor out. Read about "cancel culture" for more detail.

Nonsense. Christian's make speech every sunday

I looked that up. So the social media is forcing you to accept gay people?

Your ideas are more and more absurd by the day.

Is treating others as equals now virtue signaling? Is obeying the law now an example of virtue signaling?

What is it about LGBT people that is so offensive? Do you somehow believe that your opinions or beliefs get to decide if they have equal rights and freedoms that you enjoy?
