PostWed Nov 24, 2004 9:38 pm    Homosexuality/Bisexuality/Etc-Your Opinions

What are your opinions on homosexuality and the like?

NOTE: Keep in mind that everyone is entitled to feel the way they do about this subject.

It's highly controversial and I believe many people may argue for or against it quite profusely.

Please be respectful. That's all I ask.

Thank you,
Kat King

I won't say much in fear of offending you but I know that it's wrong.

I don't think it's wrong. But there isn't an option up there for that, As I don't really think it's abnormal or weird, hmmmmm.

Well, I'm male, I don't consider myself gay, however, I've had more male partners than female ones. But I'm not really sure what to title myself.

I don't believe it's wrong, I don't believe it's right. I just don't agree with the way of life. And yes, in my beliefs, religion has to do with it, but only in the fact that it's not my place to judge.

I believe it is wrong to be gay because the bible says it is wrong but God does love the gay people just hate the sin.

That doesn't seem to fit me right either. I should just make up a new term for myself.

I don't think there's anything wrong with being homosexual. They should be treated just like heterosexuals. No discrimination whatsoever.

Also, I'm not sure what the bible has to do with any of this. Don't let a book that has been rewritten thousands of times influence your life. Just live your life as you please and try to be an as good person as you possibly can be.

How can you believe homosexuality is wrong for religious reasons, but then mention that you have gay friends? I don't really understand that. Surely if you have homosexual friends you find nothing wrong with them. Or do you pretend they are normal and just ignore the gay part? Are you really friends then?

To me homosexuality, on the most basic anatomical level, is wrong. However you have to include the fact that many things we now do are done for reasons other than their original purpose (sex for instance). Because of this, we have to accept homosexuals and allow them the freedom and rights of any other person.

Its just wrong, its should be stopped because its not natural. But they don't have too die or anything. Its disgusting too (although lesbians are a different case, Bi-seksual women too.).

Wait. So male gays are wrong, but women gays aren't? You've been in dark corners of the 'net too much, laddie! This is idiotic!

I think it's not wrong whatsoever. I voted the first option, it comes most close to what I think: treat gays like normal people, there's nothing wrong with them, if they want to be gay, why not? Because a 2000-years-old book says so? Pft.

I voted that there's nothing wrong with it, but it's a little weird, because it's the closest to my opinions. I've grown up in an area that is very open to the Gay and Lesbian community, and I fully respect their rights as human beings.

If find it bizare that people are threatened by them. Some of the nicest people I know are Gay or Lesbian.

Of course there is something wrong with them. God, nature, Boadha or whomever Intended Men and women too be Straight, being gay doesn't help the population, the morale, cultures, religions or peace.


however, lesbians.... Thats just for fun. Or its just fun. Female Gays don't tend too be all different from a normal person but most Men gays are so Disgusting, wierd, extreme. *Shiffers down my spine*


What would you rather see, as a man or a woman doesnt matter: Seeing 2 Men kiss or Seeing 2 women kiss (just a normal kiss)?

You can be friends with gay people as it's not the person that you disagree with, it' the act they are commiting that you disagree with.

I went for disagreeing with it for religious reasons, but I don't like it either myself, just find it icky.

Anyway... I'm all for it! I mean YAY! why not!
And the gay ones I know are in general much more fun and open then most of the "regular" people I know.

Just the way I see it, engaging in homosexual acts, in my veiw, is sinful. But then I just consider the fact that if I couldn't be friends with people who have sinned, I wouldn't have any friends . And yeah, they know that I don't agree with that. But it is not worth killing a friendship over.

It's wrong to use that book for your reasoning about same sex couples. get a real reason besides what something full of dead trees says.
