Who is anyone to decide what’s "immoral" to anyone else...everyone one has different morals; therefore morality is only the judgment of the one questioning it...So is it immoral? Who cares! We were not created to judge other people why does everyone waste their time? Why don’t you just deal with your own life...Think of it like this...lets compare the homosexual to a fence. Now you don’t like this fence so you cuss and moan about it all the time. Does that change what the fence is or does? NO! Of course not, but you sure got yourself worked up about it and wasted your time. When is the world going grow up?

On another note...You have a child. This child whom well call, Katie, is your little pride and joy. You watch her grow into a beautiful, kind, caring, loving woman who brightens up a room with her loving smile. She became a teacher who inspired many people to follow the golden rule as she does. (This rule is stated in every religious bible in some form of expressing...treat others as you want to be treated...don’t believe me research it for yourself) Now one day this profound daughter of yours tells you that she is a homosexual. Please tell me how anyone could deem this woman as a bad person because of her sexual preference? She will do more for this world then most people ever will.

Judgment comes from breaking a norm...everyone’s norms are different...everyone is being judged...everyone has immoral traits in someone else eyes...

You'd be surprised how much more enjoyable life is if when your not spending all your time critisizing others

I could go on forever but it is your choice to decide what you think is right not mine...everyone is entitled to their own opinion...I’m just here to provide another side of the story
Blessings, Love, and Light to all Very Happy

Then again, i've frequently voiced my opinion that it's completely immoral and we should deport them all to france, where they can frolic with the french people, cuz we all know that they're a little off. Sorry if the french comment offends anyone, but since the war, i have lost all respect for the French.

So are you a Bush supporter from the US? Maybe even Christian? I see a pattern here.

Hey lets start another thread about the French, whom Im gratified to find are universally hated on the internet and around the world.

wow what a racist comment french people are odd...I have some firm beleifs and one of them is to never generalize groups of people.

Absolutely right Kupov! We shouldn't generalise about the French. That's far too large a group of people. I think we should generalise about Parisians instead. Paris is a magnet for all the most pompous people in France. (Many of the horrible French people outside of Paris are wannabe-Parisians)

It seems that Bob The Builder dislikes homosexuals because they don't reproduce. So presumably he also dislikes people who are sterile for the same reason, yes? I think he's a bit mean to be honest.

what about bob

But you believe in morality. Do you think what Hitler did was wrong? If so, then you have a sense of morality.

I'm not philosophically well-rounded enough to argue the concept of absolute morality. I believe that there is objective morality.

IMO → Is there objective moral? Why was the holocaust immoral?

But let's assume I'm wrong. We'd still have the concept of popular morality --- that society dictates what is right and what is wrong. So even then, there is still be a code of morality. You still have people saying that murder and theft are wrong. In other words, if absolute morals do not exist, society is responsible for determining what is moral and what is immoral.

And to date, there is not a single good reason for declaring homosexuality immoral. The only thing conservatives come up with is, "God says so."

Christians seem to have missed that bit in the bible about not judging others.

Bob must also hate those disgusting couples that get married and just decide to not have kids. Bob must hate birth control, too.

BobTheBuilder:

so i did some research, and have concluded that they're called queers for a reason

lol. Possibly one of the stupidest comments I've seen in a long time. Please, enlighten us; share your research. What kind of stats and figures did you gather? What kind of experiments did you conduct?

Judge not

And I missed it, too... Where is it written?

Matthew 7:1-3

Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

Can't see it

Tiefling:

I see nothing that says that one shouldn't judge.

The first part is about that you will be judged by the same rules
The second part is about "blind" people who try to critisize others although they themselves are worse.

It's about immoral people who try to judge others, although they themselves are worse.

Re: Your own government wanted to produce homosexuality

Ok, here is me.

I'm gay, and I'm a Christian. Right this second all hetero-christians will yell "impossible". Sinner. Repent and stop lying to yourself...and I say: shut up, sit down and hold your breath.

I grew up in a very correct and moral household, my father straight as a pole, my mother the friendliest women you'll ever meet. My father opposes homosexuality, but not fanatically (as some christians do.)

Being gay has been a struggle for me. When I was about 14 I realized I just couldn't get aroused by girls. I tried. I wanted to. But it didn't happen. I lived in the states for two years, found Christ and prayed to be different. I REALLY wanted to. For four years I prayed and tried to change myself, conciously. You can't believe how it takes the joy out of a teenager...being homosexual isn't a fun choice anyone would make.

I had 4 girlfriends in the past three years. I lied to them. I broke up and told them lies of why I did. I never told them the truth. I couldn't be with a girl when I liked guys better. I had no attraction to girls whatsoever. But society tells me I should be straight, society tells me that marriage will solve all problems...Bull****.

I wish that every person who is gay admits it and lives it. It is better than lying to yourself, lying to your parents, playing a role that isn't true. How many friends I have had that went of and got married, just to get kids and finally realize that they can't keep up the relationship. They found a guy and the poor women is now one of those crazy christian-fanatics against gays. that's SIN.

All you Christians who aren't gay: It's easy to take the Bible and say "Choice, Behaviour...bla". I made the choice to come out, but I never chose to be attracted to men. Would I be silent about my sexuality then it wouldn't make a difference other than I'm lying to myself, you and whoever else I choose to be with. And lying is a sin. So do I have a choice?

I have a boyfriend, and I haven't had sex with him once. I kiss him, I enjoy being with him and I feel happy. I don't have to blame myself for being with him for all the wrong reasons. Doesn't that count for something?

Someone once said that if women could vote the world would go down...we're still alive. They say that if homosexuals get tolerated or even...ouch...accepted our society will die of disease and immorality. there are homosexuals that are better and more responsible with their partners than any Christian, only difference is that they are gay.

Believe what you want, but keep in mind that gays are people with feelings, and that tears have drenched every single one of them.

cheers guys.

And, if I may say so, I do hope that you register on this forum. It takes a lot of guts to share your life experiences.

Very, very true. When I see how high the divorce rate is among heterosexual Protestant Christians, I can't help but laugh at those same Christians who are trying to defend the "sanctity of marriage" against homosexuality. The homosexual couples that I know are much more sincere and true in their devotion to each other than most heterosexual couples that I know.

for that i am ashamed. not that i got divorced but you get my point.

skater, thank you for what you said. i have one question though, why do you still call yourself a christian? i know the terms of homosexuality aren't exactly clear cut, but the overall feeling does suggest anti-gay. yet you still hold to christianity, why?

Maybe for the same reason 50% of Catholic priests are gay? Evil evil
