"anger, insults and false accusations" seems to have been working for the anti-gay religious conservatives...

....until most educated, rational, moderate people (including many Christians) get totally sick of it. That seems to be happening more and more now.

It's best to not respond to troll threads and from the moment I conclude this post - I will give this thread the proper amount of attention it deserves - which is to say I will ignore it. If you must resort to calling people who simply support the sanctity of the institution of marriage, bigots - then you have already lost the argument. You may disagree with that opinion, but by using imflammatory language and name calling - your credibility has gone down the drain. This is nothing but a troll thread and I encourage anyone with a shred of intellectual honesty and integrity to join me in letting it fall slowly to the bottom of the pile where it belongs. Let sanspeur and his friends play in their hateful sandbox.

The Bible can be used to support or condemn just about anything. It depends on which verses you cherry-pick out of context.

Why don't we just try and accept the way others feel. Rome was not built in one day you know. And people who are straight, are not going to even consider going the other way.
Because someone does not beleive the way i do, sure as hell does not make one a bigot. Not my job to try and change anyone's mind about their own feelings. If they want to change on their own, good for them, i am not their judge.
Would you just 'try and accept' the way an extreme conservative religious group 'feels' when they believe that females should be subservient to males and that all females should have their clitoris surgically removed as babies - and is trying to make their beliefsand feelings law in your state?

Or would you fight against it?

Does calling stealing immoral, make you a bigot against thieves? No, of course not.

This "accept it, or be a hater/bigot" attitude is what repulses me most about the homosexuals and their supporters. They seem completely incapable of tolarating anyone with an opposing view.
Are you someone who thinks left-handedness is a sign of the devil?

People have equal rights- Gays are protected and now a privledged class...BUT they are not satisfied with their new found rights and freedoms...They don't just want equality- they seem to be heading towards an agenda of dominance.

Sorry to break up your deceitful anti-gay rant, but the OP is heterosexual.

No doubt it's hard for you to fathom that a heterosexual could possibly be against bigotry and discrimination towards gays and lesbians.

Not in a million years will anal intercourse be equated or equal to intercourse between a man and a woman..try as you must- the human animal will never full except this as clean and wholesome...sorry..but that is the way it is.

We live in a world where sexual deviant actions of any sort are considered good and healthy- whether it be weird and abusive hetro-sexual relations or homo-sexual relations- some of us like pure - natural- kind and loving relationships between males and females- and we don't have to give up that value for a set of values that are less valuable.

I feel sorry for kids who are exposed to damaging porno that is on the net..that they will assume is NORMAL................Once society excepts everything that the human imagination can devise as NORMAL-------------society as we know it will go into a state of rot- a rot that will go so deep that it will eventually kill the collective.....good luck with your liberality - and be careful what you wish for in the name of freedom-----It could be your undoing.
Why are you so obsessed with sex acts?

Creepy.

Seriously?

This raises another question:

Does extreme bigotry lead to delusional thinking or is it based on disturbing delusions?
