Homosexual Discussion ForumJESUSLAND (hate crimes in America--when will it end?)On My Way... How can you say this, since the poster appears to be an American Christian? He is not referring to all Christians, only the ones who show no tolerance towards homosexuals. Your statement is merely a red herring, and an appeal to pity. Everyone just 'picks on' and 'misunderstands' intolerant Christians. And this was acceptable behaviour? You believe that behaviour likes this shouldn't be discouraged? Fat people and homosexuals are both discriminated against, and cop a lot of abuse. I believe these types of discrimination should be discouraged. At least there isn't a law which forbids two fat people from marrying! Yet homosexuals are more likely to, as are fat people. What exactly are we 'defending' marriage from, pray tell? How will two homosexuals getting married in church ruin the relationship between a heterosexual couple? Personal attacks on a poster. Why not attack the article instead of the individual? Exactly! However, you can't have your cake and eat it to. The right to have your own opinion is a two way street. Every American citizen has the right to equal treatment under the eyes of the law. Hence, the logical conclusion is that gays should not be discriminated against, and should have the right to marry. It has been determined by the American Physcological Assocation and a number of other scientific organisations that homosexuality is not choice. http://www.apa.org/pubinfo/answers.html#whatis The only people saying otherwise are Christian ministries, who start with the a priori assumption (obtained from the Bible) that homosexuality is choice, and then discard and ignore any evidence which shows otherwise. They will parrot anecdotes about homosexuals who had a tramuatised childhood, yet ignore those who had a perfectly fine childhood. In fact, a large number of children have a difficult childhood, yet only a small proportion turn out to be homosexuals. But hey, anything which supports their a priori assumptions. |
