Ceist,
Instead of responding to what I wrote, you engage in logical fallacy adhominem attack, which is an attempt to divert attention away from your losing case, to put down the person presenting information that you don't know how to counter.

If you want to be and appear more intelligent, address the issue, instead of engage in attack.

Lesbian statistics are more shady, since most tend to be bi-sexual, but still statistics show that those women engaging in homosexual fetishes (sexual substitutes) still spread STDs (through sex toys, oral sex), and suffer from mental illness at higher rates.

Then, tell us more about how all gay men engage in anal sex, and how no straight people ever engage in anal sex.
Anther straw man logical fallacy you have attempted.
Obviously, you cannot stand against truth.

YOU are a perfect example of a sex obsessed heterosexual "anti-gay," within whom a real perversion and obsession lies with sex acts that you apparently dwell upon and study for many hours a night, I'm sure. For, um, "research purposes and soul saving," I'm sure. Particularly man on man sex.

Sure is funny how that's always how it seems to work, huh?
Sure is funny how you don't know how to argue without logical fallacy.

Wow, just wow.

So you're claiming another person has "diverted attention" from the issue - but it was YOU that made the giant huge post about STDs, AIDS and mental illness. NONE of which are the subject of this thread. Wow. Talk about diverting attention...

i guess the phrase "against homosexuality" means not attending parades, demonstrations and/or yelling out to the world how awesome being gay is?


What do you think about public figures who come out as gay?

that's just it, noone thinks about them, public figures lol who cares... well except gay people who get over excited about people coming out, especially people that 99% of folks out there already know they're gay

noone cares... the "against-homosexuality" people as you call them really dont give a fk

the "against-homosexuality" people do however.. get annoyed when they are bombarded with all the tactics gay people use like trying to make the non-gay person feel like it's something wrong with them if they are not gung ho about the lifestyle

the "against-homosexuality" people laugh at you when you use fake words like "homophobic" and other silly terms once again to make it look like the "against-homosexuality" people are the ones with the problem

Nope, not the mags off racks. The original story I read was on MSNBC. And then it was on Fox news too.
And many of these do violate the human rights commission.

I am would never judge some one for their orientation or gender identity.

But if some one bashes bi's, gays, lesbians, or genderqueer people I will lose all respect for them in that single instance.
Similarly if a non-straight person was bashing straight people I would lose respect for them, though in all honesty I've never seen that happen before.

The "against homsexuality" people are the ones who enact laws like DOMA and DADT, it is them that equate homosexuals to pedophiles and beastiality, it is them that say we are perverts and that our sexuality is a fetish and all of that without regards to our humanity. If they did not give a flying F, then why do they do all of that? To just get their jollies denying someone else the same equal access to what they enjoy? Yes they have a BIG PROBLEM minding their own business. I do not attend parades, except for the pony express days parade and never yell out about being gay, does that too make me anti gay? It is silly the arguements that people use to excuse their discrimination of gays.

That's like saying you don't want girls looking up to women because they are women.

None of us has any choice about what our race is, what our sex is, or what our sexual orientation is. These are all traits given to us by our Creator.

Your 'issues' have been addressed and exposed as nonsense many times on these forums. I suggest you seek help elsewhere for the real reason you are driven to keep posting them.

If you want to appear intelligent, try posting factual information from reliable sources instead of ignorant, deceitful anti-gay propaganda.
