The LGBT Thread

[kimbal86]

That is not a fact.

There is no scientific evidence backing up any of your "facts".


Sexuality is an innate quality you say?

So cannibalism is not?



Can you prove either of those points? Shouldn't cannibals be treated equally? Or has society led you to believe that the consumption of human flesh is taboo, "evil", and downright disgusting.

I smell a double standard.

Well in that case, I'm happy for you that you have the same control over who you're sexually attracted to and who you fall in love with as you do over what you have for dinner.

How old were you when you made the conscious choice to be turned on by women and not by men?

Prostitution will hopefully never be legalized.

Prostitution is legal in Belgium and the Netherlands, it has to be behind closed doors though, so prostitution on the streets is illegal..
Both in Belgium and the Netherlands we have whole streets filled with brothels..

Wow that is really messed up.

Care to quickly explain why? It's a job like any other o.o

Might be better to take this discussion to another thread to avoid derailing this one.

It spreads diseases. People could be forced into it. It makes the person look bad.

And that is your problem how?

That's the individual person's decision, not yours.

Just saying.

1) So does holding hands.
2) In a country where it's legalized things like that get monitored
3) That's his/her own decision

Now back to the original discussion..

 

[kimbal86]

Diseases that can ruin your life and could kill you.
That's good but it can still happen.
Yes and the person will have a bad reputation for it.

Lets move this discussion to https://www.team9000.net/threads/the-prostitution-thread-should-prostitution-be-legal.21010/

Did you really have to triple-post? J/W

Does that cause problems for you?

 

[Melexiious]

It is slightly annoying, all you need to do it edit your posts.

Would be better if pride parades had more normal people to show that the majority are regular people, not all this guy:

That's a good point, lots of people don't take gay pride paraders seriously and think they are whiny and crazy because a lot of them are crazy radicals, but like any other belief, you have radicals. Not gay personally, but I have many gay/bi friends and they are just like everyone else for the most part. I just wish there were more people like them parading instead of.... that guy.

What I wanted to get across. I don't like those types of homosexuals.

From personal experience they are 1:3 (radical:non-rad), so it's only but so long before it becomes an annoyance.

That and being put in a situation by one, who I thought wasn't, and hid it from me until it was too late.

I'm sorry, I can't accept that you could be that easily annoyed. What is different about having text in two different posts rather than in one post. Does seeing my name twice hurt your eyes or something? If multiple posts is high enough on your list of problems that you need to stop me from doing it, you're going to have to give a legitimate reason. It's way easier for me to quote 3 people by making three posts.

A lot of the posts in this thread are already ticking me off, I don't need people whining about how many times I posted.

Hitting the reply button on more than one post adds the second reply to be a quote within your post, so you reply to one quote. Then you hit reply on another, answer that quote and then move on.

Hit reply
-quote appears in text box
Answer quote
Hit reply
-second quote appears in text box, at the location of wherever you left off typing
Answer second quote

etc.

Good point. The thread seems to have veered off topic.

That's quite handy.

Back on track...
I'd just like to point out that in me saying

Spoiler: this:

Oh, sure, it would be a sin.
And no, I don't recommend doing so.

But if you want to go all Bible-ey on us, then may I point out perhaps the most relevant passage of all?
John 3:16.





Whoever. That means it's not mutually exclusive.

Sin is one thing. Sin is bad. But God's gift to his people was forgiveness for their sins.
I'd say that (arguably) the most important principle of Christianity is that we believe that God sacrificed his own son for us so we could enter Heaven.
Isn't the whole point of Christianity that although we sin, God forgives us?
That he really doesn't give a shit?

Fuck yeah, God's awesome. He know's you've fucked up. In part, that's his fault, 'cos he made ye. But that's okay, 'cos God don't mind.
God's chill.
You're still going to heaven.

So, with all due respect, fuck you, and have a nice day.

In no way am I saying homosexuality is a sin.
Yeah.

I was talking to a Christian about unconditional love and how I think there couldn't be anyone in hell, and I thought I made a good point

God is supposed to be omniscient, right? Even those who seem like the most evil people have good reasons for doing what they do, even if they are extremely deranged or mentally ill. God knows these reasons. In fact he has always known the reasons. An infinite amount of years ago, god personally knew every modern serial killer, knew their childhoods, knew what caused them to do what they did. He knows every single detail of what went on and goes on in theirs minds, and it would be impossible for him to not empathize with them and feel what they feel, especially since he personally designed their brains and implanted their souls at conception with his own fucking hands. He knows them better than they know themselves. How could it be possible that he does not love them? Who are we to judge one of Gods creations? Taking it upon yourself to judge people for their actions and sexualities, and acting like you could ever know a fraction of a percent about the love force that is God are good examples of a deadly sin called pride.
