Believe me, I understand where you're coming from. But I do not believe that the poster was asserting what you're saying there. I don't believe that's what he (or she) meant. The wording was offensive--I'm not denying that, but I really don't think, based on the rest of the post, that the person intended it that way. I have read so, so many hateful and homophobic posts on this forum. I have read things that no one has dared say to my face, of course, since people can be so much more hateful on the internet. But I don't think that post fell into that category. I think ideas such as those espoused by HowDeDo, for example, can be far, far more harmful to the GLBTQ community.

'besides why do you care what others do with their genitals anyway?'

REPLY: Because it affects individuals/entire societies in a devastating degrading way as past history has shown, plus, Im a part of society and I care . How come youve resigned to tolerance of any and every sexual perversion , which shows you could care less ?

you're right. i couldn't care less. too busy worrying about the economy, national debt, war in iraq, the environment, our dependence on foreign oil and my 1year old daughters rapidly forming habit of picking her nose. i'm also most concerned with this LPITNBBWB* virus which is spreading throughout the land.

So any behavior which can be construed as destructive in any way to "society" is fair game?

Sounds like this one could be fun... wanna play?

Why should I care what a person does in their bedroom, as long as all parties of are legal age of consent? (Notice I said all "parties", as in I full-heartedly support polygamy as long as everyone involved is okay with it).

I can hardly bring myself to waste my time taking issue with your unbelievably vile postings, whoever you are, but if you were as prejudiced in a racial sense as you are towards gay people, you would be prosecuted! As the law stands, you seem to get away with this semi-literate torrent of hatred, for now, anyway.

Do you sometimes step back from yourself and consider how badly you come across? Probably not, but let me assure you, you would be shocked and horrified at how you have hijacked a religion based on love and use it as a weapon to clobber all and sundry with accusations and the grossest insults imaginable.

I am sickened by the few postings of yours that have appeared today, although I must congratulate your remarkably intimate knowledge of sexual practices of all sorts. You must have really studied this subject with an intensity that speaks volumes for where your real interests lie. I have heard of people with a fascination for all things scatological, but rarely have I encountered this in a religious context.

My bet is, you find ALL forms of sex 'dirty' - which is your problem, not the rest of the world's.

So please, can we have less of this sordid nonsense, which only applies to unhygienic people anyway, and certainly not to the gay people I know personally. It makes me seethe that you take it upon yourself to try to reduce a noble, God-given gift, such as love between two people (irrelevant of gender) into something so horrible. And worse, to claim you are doing it in Jesus' name. You say, 'take a course to change yourself' and then we will respect you. This is about as offensive as telling people of a different skin colour to your own to alter their natural colour before they can be 'acceptable'. Again, you would breaking the law if you suggested such a thing.

If I know anything about the Biblical Jesus (quite a lot, actually) - He would
focus his attention on all the pointless violence and hatred in the world today, and if you went up to him complaining about people loving each other in ways you, personally, don't approve of - He would probably order you to go away and sin no more...

Such misdirected energy on your part, and leading to what - mass stonings, maybe - would that satisfy you? Please think you might be wrong, just once in a while, I think it is what the real Jesus would have wanted you to do!

Keep in mind you're addressing a person who referred to gay sex as "making love to feces". Strange that my desire to make love to another man is about making love to his soul and spirit and heart and mind....not just his penis.

It's astonishing that someone can label someone else according to what they do with their private parts, when clearly they don't know what others do with their private parts. I don't even engage in anal sex. In fact, I haven't engaged in any sexual contact with someone in quite a while. And yet somehow I'm still an abominable, twisted, perverted, "feces-loving" sicko.
