Have you ever taken a sociology class? As individuals, we're not islands. We're all influenced by what others think of us and by what society wants us to be.

Your consistently anti-gay posts are infuriating, by the way. I really think you just like to harass people, to be honest.

She's not closed-minded. She's made a decision about an obviously biased source.

If you reject the philosophies of the KKK, I guess I could say the same about you: You're closed-minded.

How am I harassing anyone? I am voicing my opinions as anyone else on CDF. I have not used any derogatory terms towards the homosexual community. If you cannot take criticism or dissenting points of view, then you should not be in the "Politics and other Controversies" forum then.

Where do you think the internal conflict comes from?!

Maybe "harassment" isn't the right word, but you certainly are antagonistic.

You haven't used derogatory terms, but your attitude toward gays is very derogatory.

I really think that people that hate homosexuality to such an a extreme level to where they will go on and on forever about it are self hating homosexuals.

Homosexuality and Mental Health Problems
No surprise here. When hate (by people like you) is directed at homosexuals their entire life it's hard for it not to manifest itself in some way. Imagine if we just treated each other with kindness, instead of with some narrow minded, double talk Christian crap you losers like to dish out towards gays and others you disapprove of.
