lmao! haha that had me cracking up.
seriously though, I have no issue with anyone being gay but I feel like it's wrong for people to think its a prerogative to 'come out'. be who you are and people will see you for it.
Got a tip for us?

I don't hate anyone. Not even you. You hate me, though. That would make you the "hater". Own it!
The only destructive behavior is you and your ilk who want to try and take rights away from gay people.
According to this logic, animals are "free-will beings" who "can choose" to abuse gods will....

Actually, that's not true. I realize you're late to the thread, but read back a few pages (or simply search for the info), it's been shown and proven more times than not that sexuality is no more a choice than the color of your eyes, skin, height, gender. Fact.
or just read the post before mine.
Thanks glxyjones (and yes, it's Wikipedia, but read the sources to actual scientific data)
Name one thing I was wayyyy off about. Just one. Your reply literally had absolutely nothing to do with my post.
And, as "someone who teaches anthropology" you better know (for the sake of your students) that murder, cannibalism and pedophilia have been WIDELY accepted cultural norms among many indigenous tribes/cultures.
Is it ok that I believe in God, and His son told us to "love thy neighbor as thyself," so I love Tim, my wife, my 7 children, all of you on the forums, whether I agree with you or not, and let Him judge us, as I am too busy trying to perfect myself and get that beam out of my own eye to see the mote in yours.
The Hate word has become a bit of mantra for the gay lobby. Everything is defaults to "hate." I think people are wising up to the overuse and rididulous misuse of the word.
I don't hate you personally. I don't know you. I hate religion and I hate the way it makes people like you think it's ok to insult, demean, degrade, and vilify others while you hide behind your religious beliefs and cry foul if anyone criticizes your stupid imaginary deity. And I hate the way people like you ignore all the pain and suffering caused by haters like you.
Don't bother. Their standards don't apply to them.

Hater. So, so much hate in your post.
That kind of proves my point though - that one part of the Bible says one thing, and another part says another. Since you (plural, not you directly) decide what to believe and go by, then you're applying your own moral 'sieve' on the Bible, which shows that it's not teaching you at all. You are applying your own set of morals to it, not the other way round.
I think it is you that has missed the point here. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for Christ's message of love and peace and equality. It's just some of the other stuff I have difficulty swallowing.

Well, as a straight person, I'm not a part of this so-called "gay lobby", I just know bull **** when I see it.
I've labeled myself... I have a P-Touch (sounds like a toy for the prostate, though)
You're right. And they even have that warning at the bottom of our menus: "Eating undercooked seafood can be hazardous to your health." I hadn't thought of that. Funny how the ancients in the Bible had so many things right.
Yes, that's the point. Do you have a response, or are you just going to paraphrase me?
And if I may ask you, please use a spell checker. It's embarrassing to be talking with a stereotype of an "ignerrint" Bible-thumper. I mean, if you are going to tout the Bible, at least spell "Commandment" right (not to mention "Saturday"). There is other learning available outside the Bible, such as English class.
So many bigots on this forum. Imagine being delusional enough that you thought someone else's sexuality was having a detrimental effect on your life and that you had to object to it. To do so in the name of a god who doesn't even exist, that's just unforgivable.
I feel sorry for you, really, I do. You have shown yourself to be an ignorant, hateful, cantankerous individual who cares more about spreading your lies like the venereal diseases you compare others to being. You're one of the very few who have made my block list, not because I do not agree with what you think is right, but because of how you treat others and what you believe others to be. I feel for you, and if there is a God and an afterlife, I sincerely pray you see the wrong in your ways and find true redemption. Otherwise, you and others like yourself who claim to speak the word of God through hatred and ignorance have no place in my world.
Good luck, I mean it.
It does say a lot that in 2014 the CEO of the worlds leading consumer tech company believes that he has to tell people about his personal orientation. Kind of sad. Still a long way to go.
