no disagreement there, so has murder, fornication, lying, adultery, stealing, or any of the other heinous acts man does on this school for the gods.

Makes me wonder why young straight guys care so much about gays to constantly be mocking them like they do.
Its a mystery.

I'm not trying to say that natural=desirable, but to say that homosexuality is unnatural is shortsighted at best.

Yes. Seeing as I'm gay myself, I don't see how I could teach my future children anything else.

We know, sex is only for procreation, the bible says this and that. Many sexual activities serve no natural biological function, does that mean they are not normal?


Being normal doesn't mean it serves a natural function. In the case of homosexuality, it just so happens that it's both abnormal and unnatural.

You wouldn't.

My natural sense of disgust with all things homosexual would prevent me from having any sort of dangerous interaction with you.

See how that works?

I would much rather my son be gay and HAPPY then non-HAPPY and straight. His life, his decision.

There's a lot worse things in this world to worry about IMO.

I just realized that you were the one who basically implied I was a spoiled brat for insisting on humane treatment in the workplace. Thanks for that.

Ahh!!!! There's no such thing as a happy gay person as he spends eternity burning in a lake of fire.
