I'm not trolling. Everything I wrote is is the truth.
Spot, I've been told that many times by people exactly like Roaddog and NxtGen. I don't understand it, but there are many people out there who feel personally threatened by anything which challenges their opinions. And if we're being honest, I can understand that feeling. Our opinions and beliefs make up a huge part of who we are as people. But to flat our reject any evidence that contradicts your beliefs? I don't get it.

Yeah... me too. I agree that it's difficult to understand. Ultimately, I guess all we can do is continue to challenge people who refuse to accept facts.
I guess nobody wants their children to be gay, because that is a harder path of life. Acceptance and understanding are increasingly common, but the preference stays the same.

I will admit, I'm relieved that our children are all choosing opposite sex partners.
However, I pretty sure we'd love whoever they brought home and I know we would keep loving them. Not a question in my mind at all.
My heart breaks for those parents with grown children who are troubled. We have a couple friend who are raising their grandkids because the courts removed the children from their custody.
I would be heartbroken if our kids had turned out like theirs. But I would do my best to maintain relationships, if for no other reason than the sake of the grandchildren.
I'm not aggressive. I'm annoyed. I've dealt with people like you and Roaddog before. You say you have evidence to contradict what I'm saying, yet its never produced. Hell, if I had that evidence and someone annoying like me was telling me how wrong I was, I'd whip that **** out lickety split.
No, instead of producing a shred of evidence to support your arguments you plug your ears with your fingers and start insulting those who disagree with you. Textbook behavior.
Also? Spams? Have you not responded in kind - both in demeanor and quantity - this morning to my posts?
It's all too common. People put their whole lives into a book written by man and then translated over and over and over and over again and accept it as per se truth. And then use that per se truth to judge, slander, and attack people who don't form to that translation. It's quite sad.
Is being gay a sin? Not being gay, but committing to homosexual acts perhaps is a sin. Does it matter to you? No, live your life.
As for what I assume is the "trauma" argument, how come those girls with daddy issues didnt just become lesbians ?
They are desperate for daddy's love. They already got mommy's love.
As to my comments of tolerance. When he asks "would you be Okay with". Is he asking if you would accept it? Or if you would tolerate it?
The LGBT community, wants to so badly be seen as equal to anyone else.
They pretend that their movement is about equality before the law. But what they really want, just as we all do, is to be thought of as equal by those around us.
A friend of mine is gay, and he feels that same-sex marriage being legal means nothing, if it doesn't change how his grandparents feel about homosexuality.
His real goal, is to persuade people to think of homosexuality and heterosexuality, as being equal to one-another. That it doesn't matter one way or the other what you choose, any more than your choice of shoes, or ice cream.
He wants people, not only to tolerate him, but to accept him. The idea of tolerance, has been transformed into a desire for acceptance. And the words, functionally, have been used interchangeably. And to even think or say something negative or critical of homosexuality, is to be called intolerant.
But as I said, when you say you will "tolerate" something, it means you don't like it, but will allow it, out of respect. It does not mean you agree with it.
So, if I strongly oppose something, but will still tolerate it, should I say that I am "okay" with it?
This thread reminds me why I like animals more than people.
