I think anyone who chooses to be gay is aware of what they are doing. I just don't see why people misunderstand them.
Many Christians think that sex should only be used to produce children, and since homosexual sex doesn't produce children, they are against it.
I'm not for gay marriage, but I'm not against it either. I think homosexuals and lesbians should be treated just like regular people instead of making such a fuss about it. Edit:I'm a Catholic, which is almost the same as a Christian, but I'm not against homosexual sex.
So, you're for homosexuals and lesbians being treated as normal people (which they are), but you're against gay marriage? That's an original stance, I must say.
You're against homosexuality.. so what? How can you be against homosexuality? You aren't the homosexual one, so what does it change to your life? I don't like cold. Do I make a law against winter? No, because even if I made a law, it wouldn't stop the cold from being here. Just like telling that same sex wedding is illegal won't stop homosexuality. It's a fact of today's society, learn to live with it, dammit! (I used the cold as an example of something I don't like, but it doesn't mean that I'm against homosexuality. Quite the opposite, actually)
There is no choice. They can't change it. They can only lie to themselves if they're really gay and have a partner of the opposite sex. Homosexuals are people, like all of us. They should be treated fairly and equally to anyone else. If you want to look to a bible to guide your feelings on this subject, then you should also denounce that the Sun is the center of the universe. Religious leaders made Galileo retract his statement of the of what would become the heliocentric model in the "B.C" times. Look how far off they were. Well said, Maëlle. If it doesn't hurt them, why take it out on gay people who want to be treated normally?
Mark, I'm all for homosexuality, but may I correct you by saying that you do have a choice. You have a choice for everything you do. You can choose to be homosexual. You can completely choose your feelings. You choose to make yourself happy, you choose to make yourself angry, sad, etc. The same goes for homosexuality. If you want to like a member of the same sex, you're going to find a way to do it, and same for the latter.
No. Homosexuality, as scientific studies have shown, is caused by chemical imbalances in the brain. There is no choice involved in whetehr you are naturally gay or straight. It's like eye color, you can't choose that as well. People don't choose their sexual orientation, unless they go against what their natural one is.

[/b][/quote] You know, you can sit there and preach to me for hours about how gay marraige is against your religion, but what about seperation of church and state? True, there is a law that says that enforcing a religious law is allowed, but what about the constitution? Are not homosexuals entitled, just like everyone else, to life, liberty and the persuit of happiness?

So, yeah, The Constitution is a big pile of shit. Jefferson is a hypocrite.

Not only does the Constitution contradict itself a lot, but so does the bible. I have a huge ass test on the Constitution tomorrow..I wonder what would happen if I just said 'I'm not taking it, since it's pointless anyway"
Because Americans don't want to admit that our founding fathers were slave owners and weren't really the saints that we grew up thinking they were.
Back on topic. Homosexuality is fine with me, it's not a big problem or anything, they're normal people. I don't care who they think is hot or not, etc. As to the Bible and the Constitution... The Bible was written a very long time ago. <-Fact. The Constitution was written by hypocrites. Just because a document says it doesn't mean it's true. Otherwise I'd be king of the world. Don't base your beliefs on outdated texts, base it on your opinion. Are you comfortable with guys liking guys and the opposite? I'm comfortable with it, I just prefer not to see or imagine it in my head. Unless the girls are hot.
Did you choose to be straight? I don't think so. You were born straight. You probably never thought 'Hey, I want to be straight.' because you always were straight. The same thing for homosexuals and bisexuals. edit: when you grow up you make hormones and you become straight, bi, or gay. You aren't aware of it, you become aware when you are confronted with it, by yourself or by others. Just like you grow, you aren't aware your body becomes taller but when someone say you are taller than last time you are ware of your growth. What I mean to say, you don't choose your hormones, you don't choose how you feel, you don't know in the beginning (when you are still a child, you don't care about your sexuality) you're becoming what you are. Another thing. Why do some people feel and say being hetero is normal and being gay or bi is less normal or even wrong? Being gay or being bi just as normal as being hetero. Because there are more straight people doesn't mean being straight is the best way to go.
