Gilsan there is so much drivel in your usual anti-gay diatribe that I could write a whole book rebuking almost every point you make. Just a few remarks, because life is too short:
Civil Unions YES, Gay Marriage NO.
It doesn't change a thing, because gays and lesbians don't need permission from the government to live together. Call it like you want.
Denying gays and lesbians the right to marry won't make them go away. Get used to it.
Fortunately, we are not in Zimbabwe, Cameroon, or Iran.
First of all, a child needs both a female role model and a male role model to be able to integrate fully into society. Most Gays will never be able to provide this. Gays fail to provide either a mother's love or a father's teachings. How will children being brought up by gays deal with fellow students when they ask about their father or mother?
I am happy to hear that you were fostered by loving, caring, undivorced parents - because many heterosexual couples are not really fit for the job, in fact they botch the mission big time and destroy their children's lives. But for some reason, you believe it's the only valid family model.
Therefore, I suppose single parents are equally disqualified in your eyes ? That's what you said: a female role model and a male role model, right ?
It was quite funny (and pathetic) to see those French demonstrators wanting to forbid same-sex marriage because it would supposedly be unhealthy for children :lol:
But there are parents living a same-sex relationship, and children living under the same roof.
If that type of family were so unhealthy for children, it would be outlawed, but even the bigots know it's plain irrational and doesn't make sense at all. Nobody can forbid that.
So they resort to exploiting children to promote their hate agenda
=> not nice.
As if they cared about the children. They don't.
Otherwise they would be a tad more consistent in their inconsistent claims.
I can't stand the hypocrisy.
Again, making same-sex marriage legal or not won't change the existing reality.
Why are there so many suicides amongst gays?
Because society doesn't accept gays, you are a prominent example. Even in the most gay-friendly nations, being gay is not easy at all.
People commit suicide out of despair because they don't fit in or have no hope.
It's like asking why some kids commit suicide after being bullied at school for years. You don't think gays are exposed to bullying a lot ?
Gay lifestyle is just too promiscuous to be trusted to allow them to adopt children. You would have thought that 32 years after gays first introduced AIDS, they would be a lot more careful in their sexual lifestyles, but obviously statistics tell us that it is not the case.
Is there such a thing as gay lifestyle ?
I know some gays/lesbians, and work with them every day in a professional capacity, and there are just normal people like you and me. They are not people living on the edge of society. You seem to confuse reality with your personal fantasy world.
So now AIDS is the creation of gays ? Utter nonsense. It's no different than the religious nuts claiming it's a punishment from God
Liberals and Homosexuals may want to alter the legal definition of marriage, but they will never be able to alter the laws of nature
.
You should study nature and
biology more, because homosexuality is part of nature... :tri:
On a final note, I would say that the 'mild' homophobia exemplified in this thread isn't that benign. Imho it is a form of hate - no less.
What's going on in the minds of homophobes would be along these lines:
Okay we don't like you gays very much. Well, it's not that we don't like you, we just feel a bit uneasy you know, nothing personal.
Unfortunately there is little we can do about it, because the public at large doesn't sympathize with our views any more. Also, we cannot put you in jail or exterminate you, because such practices have ceased a long time ago, over here at least. Not that we condone but you know, it's ain't easy for other people.
So please sin in private, don't live your difference openly, please don't make any waves. We don't want to see, we don't want to know. Please don't...
Just pretend you don't exist and all will be fine...
That's the problem: it's like you are not even human because you don't exist, in fact you don't have the right to exist because you are not worthy in the eyes of the homophobes and they can't stand gays and lesbian gaining visibility in the public eye
In many countries, homosexuality is frowned upon or is a criminal act. So when you are a victim of a hate crime, there is nowhere to complain. Remember: you don't exist. Homosexuality officially doesn't exist. So there is no crime, therefore no victim.
You are only allowed to suffer or get killed in the most extreme cases.
Or better yet, kill yourself. Yeah, that would be ideal.
Then we'll claim you committed suicide because of mental instability :lala:
Nothing wrong with society of course. But we could do without people like you.
This is more or less what the homophobes aim to achieve. They don't always realize it, because they are not being rational. But minorities of all sorts always get exposed to the worst abuses when they are deprived of visibility.
Hate stems from fear, and fear stems from ignorance.
Think about it.
