That's really lame of someone that was your "friend" to say that to you. Just move on.

[Shrekstasy]

The obvious choice is to beat them down into the ground.

[Wuu.]

Alright,

 

time to get honest; don't hate me for it (not that i don't deserve it) but i normally don't like Homosexuals. I do not respect their choice, nor do i accept them hanging around me (Where i live there aren't many Homosexuals; most likely up to 6.) Can't hate people because they're different from us 'normal' people.

I hope you respect my choice of speaking out freely (Probably not).

[Wyhe]

Some people just hate being different from others or just plain hate other different peoples, it is seen in history as prejudice of all types.

[Essa]

well i hate homophobia i have a gay friend who is picked on by the rest of the secondary students so only has few friends excluding me cuz i dont go to his school. i used get called a gay boy untill they found out i was going out with a girl

I'm Catholic' date=' so I have to hate gays or else God won't let me into heaven.

Sorry. [/explainingthestupidityofcatholicbeliefs']

 

Why do they think that, did they ever think that if god hated gays, why do they exsist?, seeing as hes are so called "creator" he could just get rid of them.

[Aesirson]

Homophobia is harsh and bulls**t. I respect homosexuals (I call them that because I find the word 'gay' insulting) and their choice of loving someone of the same sex.

 

But let's not forget the other problem, heterophobes....

Please tell me that your opinion has not come from a 2000 year old book?

 

EDIT: sorry. i didnt see your edit.

Okay A) He's reffering to the old testiment, much older than 2000 years when that was also the general attitude to gays. The New testiment (The story of Christ) is 2000 years old and doesn't say that, but rather 'love your neighbour as you love yourself' and how we can become better people.

 

B) If that's how he treats you, then he's not a real friend. If your gay, say your gay. Say "I'm gay and thats the way I stay." funk what he thinks.

...But I'm straight so I wouldn't know what discrimination your in. But still,if he says 'funk you for being gay', is he a friend?

[.Requiem]

Who cares people are homosexuals, straight or undecided. It is a life choice. People need to learn to deal with it.

Dude, God loves everyone of us. He'd be pretty scary if he knocked all of us off for falling short of his standards, which we always will.

[Felix]

On average, human nature will dictate that because someone is different to the {forgot word} they are bullied/ridiculed/extradited because of those differences. The guy you referred to in the 1st post probably had the IQ of that bear in Metal Lord's sig so you can't really blame him for being stupid, the same way that tard can't complain about you being gay. It's in no way your problem; only his and a good 4/5th's of the worlds population. You should read Naughts and Crosses, really makes you think but I made sad face at the end. I was too sad to read the 2nd book.

[LiAM]

Its true, most homophobics or people with 'queer fear' are raging football hooligans with the mental age of 5.

 

And i've read Nought and crosses, interesting, but boring...

That's completely true!

Just wonder what their life is like though :?

 

I dislike Noughts and Crosses too,

[LiAM]

Yeah well, not brought up properly in bad areas not given the full awareness of the world around them and the inability to think, yeah and with also the masculinity of dad's with football and 'babes', completely false upbringing, dont you wonder why girls are more acceptant of different people?

Racism' date=' by its simplest definition is the belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race.[1'] People with racist beliefs exhibit stereotype-based prejudices towards individuals and groups of people according to their race.

 

So not likeing a gay person is not racism. To say you hate homophobes is kinda like saying you hate people with any phobia, it doesint make any sense.

 

So instead say I hate prick basterds who dislike someone for there sexuality. Which I will agree with you. I consider myself semi racist but its not because I dont like who black people sleep with its the way they act.

That entire argument was both racist and circular. O,x

It's short for "emotive"; that is' date=' theatrically sorry for oneself.

Hell, F*** religion in general. It sets pointless rules and states that if you don't listen you go to hell or whatever. It's only caused bad things like war and hating gays, nothing good about it. And you may think this will get you to heaven, but how do you have proof about this 'Heaven' and this 'God'? Proove to me that there real and then nvm what I said.

 

 

@ tl;dr: Religion is buulllshiiit! So is homophobia.

You have completely misinterpreted the concept of religion.

I lol'd; sexuality develops independently of conscious thought. Considering that conservative heterophobia runs rampant worldwide, what individual, sane or not, would choose homosexuality over heterosexuality?

Actually Homosexuality is a choice when you're Bisexual.

[LiAM]

Sortof right there, homosexuality can only be a choice when you are bisexual.

 

A person cannot just wake up one morning and think 'today, im going to be gay!'

 

it doesnt work like that, it jsut happens, wether you like it or not, from my honest viewpoint, i didnt want to be gay, i thought of; what my parents would think, bullying, not having my own kids etc.

 

But i just got used to it and i enjoy it now, i actually find it hard to understand why everyone isnt bisexual or has been, why choose just the one.

 

XD lol... no but seriously, homophobia is a serious problem for me, its only recently its become a big thing.

[Cyber Altair]

Actually everyone is a bisexual. There is a scale from 1-5 1 being completely straight and 5 being completely well gay.

 

Most people score between 2-4.

[Amethyst Phoenix]

Yeah well' date=' not brought up properly in bad areas not given the full awareness of the world around them and the inability to think, yeah and with also the masculinity of dad's with football and 'babes', [b']completely false upbringing[/b], dont you wonder why girls are more acceptant of different people?

Why do you complain about prejudice towards homosexuals and then present prejudiced views about heterosexual upbringing?

 

You talk about how bad it is for you and that people won't accept you, but so far you've called being raised in a heterosexual environment and life style bad, and you've expressed negativity towards the bible.

 

They're prejudiced towards you and that would be because of their preconceived, false notions about homosexuals correct?

 

Yet, you have your own false notions about religious people, father's that want their sons to be heterosexual, and even God himself.

 

Here's some examples to destroy your views of these:

 

A) "Hitler being christian" and "The KKK being christian" are such stupid points against christianity. You realize how small a percentage of christians the KKK represents? Hitler represents one person out of all christians. Using them as your argument makes about as much sense as calling Islam an evil religion because one group of people that were muslim attacked America. And a few people at your school is hardly representative of christians as a whole either. I'm a christian (a Roman Catholic at that!) and you don't see me condemning homosexuals, nor do you see thousands of others. Some homosexuals are even christian.

 

B) So wanting your son to live a lifestyle that society and nature percieves as normal is wrong? We all want our children to grow up in one way or another. We may support different lifestyles, but deep down we all have our own image of what we want our kids to be. While I hate stupid football jocks as much as you do, not all football players are complete idiotic jerks. This is how we have been raising people for ages. I'm not pressured into sports, but I have had a fairly normal upbringing and it didn't turn me into a homosexual hater, nor has it turned thousands of others into them.

 

C) God has never expressed his views on homosexuals, people have only interpreted it from the bible (which has never clearly said that he hates homosexuals, only that he loves everyone and that he forgives them of their sins. If homosexuality is a sin, then I don't see why God wouldn't forgive them). Stop blaming God because his followers do stupid things.

 

Another thing, that I've noticed in every thread that involves religion in some way, is that atheists say things to the tune of "Well if there is an all powerful being, why do people do bad things, and why do disasters occur that he could avert?".

 

Answer to the first one: We were created with free will. That is the answer to that. If you think that christians are silly because they think God controls everyone's actions, then you're correct that it's a silly idea, but wrong that christians believe it. Also, before someone counters this with a quote from the bible about guiding our actions, guiding does not equal controlling.

 

Answer to the 2nd: God doesn't often meddle in the affairs of mortals because, quite frankly, it's not his job. When he created us, he gave us the duty as wardens of the earth. It's our job to keep the earth safe, not his.

 

 

Another thing I see discussed, is that atheists have been criticizing christians and other religions for blind faith. Congratulations! You are now a hypocrite! Most atheists are liberal, correct? You turn on your TV an watch CNN, or some other news station that isn't fox, and blindly believe your liberal media. Doesn't sound much different does it?

Oh, and I realize that I'm making an unfair stereotype about liberals there. The purpose of it, was to show how stupid it is for atheists to criticize all religious people as blindly believing everything told to them.

 

There's also "If God exists, why doesn't he prove it?". Do you really think that you're that important? If I were God, I wouldn't waste my time convincing a few people I exist. God will exist indefinitely whether you believe it or not. So, frankly, the answer to this is: You're too insignificant to warrant God proving his existence to you.

 

Here, I'll even do your responses for you!

 

Pffft, if God exists, why do bad things happen?

 

I'll believe in God when I see proof.

 

Lol! Stupid conservative!

 

 

 

And, no this isn't some stupid post where I try to push my religion on others. I'm just sick of people insulting it. You may now flame me etc. To be honest, I really don't give a funk if you do.

 

.....yay! +1 Post count!

 

 

Also, why do we argue on the internet? Very rarely does one side convince another, because both sides are so firmly entrenched in their opinions. Personally, I think we just do it because we're bored and the conversations can be amsing at times. One side gets to laugh at how stupid the others opinions are to them and vice versa. The different sides are making eachother happy with laughter etc. Sort of representative how different groups do things in different ways but accomplish the same end. But, I'm rambling now, so I digress.

[ProjectClow]

amythest phoniex is the smartst person here. iv read the bible, God never says "gays are bad"

as far as the bible is concerned, all relationships without babies are a sin. catholisism is a religion based of faith, not magic tricks and God proving himself. And God is love. not just straight love.

ORLY?

Just fill a mug with your seeds and give 'em to a girl and she can become... I think you know what i mean.

Actually there are all kinds of being Gay. You have 100% Gay's who only hang out with girls and wear ridiculous pink clothes (no offense) you're that kind of gay that's less than 40% (I think)

And you can't regret being gay since you're born with it.

[ProjectClow]

you dont have to regret it. nobody wants to be isolated. humans are inherently social.

[Wuu.]

That's what i'm saying Marvel said he didn't wanted to be gay but you can't know better since you had to part with it your life.

Unless someone gay is directly in your face hitting on you, and you're not gay too, then I would understand it, but not otherwise.

 

It's just stupid.
