    Are homophobes born that way?

    I’m sorry if you misunderstood my post to be attacking the gay community. I was merely responding to the OP where the question was asked whether homophobes were made or born. My belief is that there are many factors that can effect somebody’s perception of homosexuality. I attempted to provide...

    Are homophobes born that way?

    I would imagine a homophobe to be somebody who has had a bad experience with a gay person. For example: all the boys who were molested by gay priests. These guys would most probably hold some fairly negative feelings toward gay people. Trusting somebody like a priest only to find out that this...

    The Gay Thread

    I’m sorry, when did we start talking about survival skills? My, don’t we have some interesting stereotypes there. I fully understand why you wouldn’t be able to foresee any problems arising from two people of the same sex raising a child. Nevertheless, there are significant problems that you...

    The Gay Thread

    It's called the [word deleted] of the American male. Ever notice how many fewer men teach our boys in school these days? It's mostly women. Women don't understand the male mind. Boys can't even fight it out anymore without getting into serious trouble. Boys need to fight each other once in a...

    I don't recall describing what my concept of a real man is. Could you please refresh my memory for me?

    The Gay Thread

    I've heard this reply often. It’s a straw man the gay community uses to try and shift the blame from themselves to those heartless, nasty fundies. It’s a cop out. San Francisco is a gay Mecca. Nobody is telling any gay people that they are worse than dirt. They live in the city virtually...

    The Gay Thread

    Experience has taught me that's not true. Men learn to be men from other men, not from their mother. It's not an informational issue, but rather a role model to pattern their behavior after.

    The Gay Thread

    Show me where I am imposing my morals on another. You accuse me of things that you know nothing about. You should read what I write before you pass judgement.

    civilian militias

    Militias are nothing more than a bunch of grown men pretending they could actually make a difference. They are delusional groups who carry guns, make speeches and feel like they are one step ahead of the game. There is no basis in reality for their paranoid ideas nor their ability to...

    The Gay Thread

    I haven’t rationalized that gay people are produced from any particular type of family. I was referring to normal male and female role models with which children learn from. Each child is different and unique. They learn and model their behavior to a large extent through watching their...

    Oh really. And just how did you deduce that?

    Not at all. I knew exactly what he was saying. A pansy is an effeminate male who shys away from any sort of physical danger. Men are taught to face their problems and deal with them head on. Men don't shy away from the possibility of physical harm or a physically uncomfortable situation when...

    I would too. I don’t think children should be separated from their biological parents except in cases of serious abuse. If a lesbian has a child I would never advocate taking that child from her. That’s her child and she has the right to raise it as she sees fit. However, adoption is...

    The Gay Thread

    OK, this will be the catch-all gay thread. Gay marriage, gay adoption, gay lifestyles, homophobia, homosexual morality etc, etc. In other words, nothing Gay will be “off topic”. I do hope the mods and admins (of which there seems to be an inordinate amount on this board) will show some...

    Are people born Gay?

    You didn’t read a thing I wrote so far. Show me where I said it was wrong to love somebody. That’s probably because you are misreading what I have written. I’m not trying to achieve anything Michel. I have a clear conscience about what I believe. I don’t hate anybody or wish harm to come to...

    Are people born Gay?

    The relationship I have with my wife is within the covenant of marriage. It's not about sex, it's about raising a family. How would you know? Have you ever studied the subject? I have done quite a bit of reading on just this topic. I didn't just formulate these ideas a few minutes before...

    Are people born Gay?

    I didn’t over look it at all. I was merely saying that the core of the argument was sex and not love. Love is not the issue with homosexuality, although many people like to use the term interchangeably with sex. Sex and love are two entirely different things.

    Are people born Gay?

    [/color] I don’t think God objects to any two people loving each other. It’s the sexual part that is questionable. Your right about judging others. We should really only judge ourselves. However, we do have an obligation to maintain a high level of morality in our society. This benefits...

    Should the world be united under one government?

    If the League of Nations and the UN are any indication of an attempt at quasi world government, there is no way. The League of Nations went belly up for the same reason the UN is going down the tubes: corrupt and inept leadership. Could you imagine a world government with Kofi Annan as it’s...
