Can you and other people argue a point without making it a personal attack on someone? I honestly don't mind the discussion, even when there is disagreement, but the constant bickering like a school age child is getting old.

All of these anti-gay threads here are nothing but personal attacks on people like me. I have been called an abomination, told I'm going to burn in hell, that I do not deserve equal rights, that I am a mistake, that my children should be taken from my home, and that I am less than. So, before you go off about personal attacks, maybe you should try reading these things from my POV.

Survivor has people from all walks of life, it is not a faith based show, even though some tribe members think if they pray hard enough god will declare them the winner.
Did you cover your face when your mother and father embraced one another?

Who told you, you are a mistake? Who said that your children should be taken from your home?

If you feel attack, then does that justify attacking others? What happened to maturity?

No, it's fine by me. I wasn't the one bent out of shape when the gay couple hugged and kissed on Survivor last night.

What is getting old is the constant gratuitous attacks against homosexuals. The motive is mostly "you don't like it" more so, than your corrupted understanding of biblical translation--which is even more childish. BTW, we are living in 2014, not 1014.

Matthew 7
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you."

It's fine because, if they didn't have those interactions in some form or another, you wouldn't exist right? It's a part of our existence. To the poster's point, would you see other forms of relationships shown in the same manner as the homosexual couples? I think that is the point he is making. It's not about avoiding it, it's about having it being indoctrinated.

Why don't you go to the Islamic section and tell them you don't agree with their views on homosexuals too since you feel so strongly.

Posters on this forum in one of the may gay bashing threads.

And yes, when I, or my family, are attacked I will fight back. How I am treated by others is how I will respond to them.

I missed that. I would like to see what you are talking about though.

Why do you feel attacked? This is the viewpoint of many Christians. You obviously disagree. There are many things in the world that groups believe that you will probably disagree with. Why make these things personal? Why not accept the fact that people will not agree with what you do? Why does the views of strangers on the internet bother you so much? At the end of the day, we have no control over what choices you make. Why get so consumed by this?
