Proving yet again, you slept through elementary school. The Domestic cat is of the species: F. Catus (and it doesn't matter the breed).

the domestic dog species is: C. lupus Subspecies: C. l. familiaris


I haven't touched this stuff since I was in College, and I still remember it all.

"God help us" is a common phrase used to express dismay. My views about homosexuality have little to nothinhg to do with religious beliefs. You are making ignorant assumptions about me because it is helpful if you can place people you disagree with in a box. A strong moral compass tells me that homosexuality is wrong. I don't base that off of anything in a religious text.

Here is another article on a story cited earlier. Not much fabrication here.

I have a strong moral compass as well and believe homosexuality is just fine.... Interesting...

You might want to adjust that compass - it is pointing you in the wrong direction.

I hope that you don't use it for airborne navigation.

They are required to learn about sexuality and gender, it's called sexual education.

You are complaining that you are being discriminated against because homosexuals want to marry!!!

Quote:
I am called hateful for disagreeing with them.
You can dislike it as much as you want, but that is your opinion and your opinion isn't fact.

I can't go a week without reading, hearing, or seeing some pro-gay propaganda.
I can't go a week without seeing a scipture quote or ignorant people posting homophobic opinions and claiming they are fact.

Quote:
It once was that homosexuals just wante to be left alone to live their lifestyle without being harrassed by the police.
Now they want to be left alone to live their lifestyle, which includes marriage and adoption, without being harassed by ignorant ideological beliefs.
Quote:
They wanted tolerance.
And still don't have it.


Quote:
They have tolerance now - but that isn't good enough. They really want forced acceptance and ultimately for anyone who speaks against them to be charged with a crime. That already occurs in the U.K. and Canada.
They don't have tolerance and your posts prove this. You don't have to agree with their lifestyle, just don't try to take it from them, is that really hard to do?

Odd that you use a reference to having something shoved down your throat....

A huge distortion of the truth.

California educators are now allowed to teach that some of our famous history personalities were also gay. Nothing wrong with that.

And through sex ed classes, to cover homosexual sex, and how to keep yourself protected.

They are not actively teaching homosexual sex stories, or theories or showing it.

Quote:

They are insisting on being allowed to be treated fairly. MArriage as defined by the Supreme Court is the RIGHT of every person in the United States.

Quote:

They are insisting on being allowed to be treated fairly. Good children are left in foster care while loving homosexual couple is more than ready to adopt the child.

Florida recently got rid of their "no adoption for gays" law.

Quote:

Because they aren't being treated fairly when it comes to marriage. Like how African americans whined and complained that they were being discriminated against and were considered on 3/5ths of a citizen; and interacial couples couldn't marry because it was illegal in 90% of the states in 1960.

I didn't bring up religion, why did you? I'm not religious.

I'm right there with you. Hey, maybe we should write a book about how awful straight, married parents are! My siblings and I grew up in an abusive household (physically and emotionally). I was aware of infidelity on both sides. I witnessed physical fights on a regular basis. My parents are straight, my siblings are straight, and I am straight. My parents are married and still together. It has nothing to do with one's sexuality. It is about the individuals involved. There are toxic, abusive people of all persuasions. Being abusive and/or promiscuous is not limited to gay people, nor to single people. Seriously folks, it's time to stop throwing out this kind of ridiculous nonsense just because you disagree with homosexuality. Plenty of heterosexual marriages end because of infidelity, but you've somehow convinced yourselves that it's only gay people who can't be monogamous. Plenty of children from heterosexual homes experience horrific abuse, but you've somehow convinced yourselves that it's only gay couples who abuse and harm their kids. It's just idiotic. I'm sorry for what this woman went through, but her problem was not that she had gay parents. It was that she had bad parents. Join the club. Being a j@ck@ass is an affliction that does not discriminate.

Translation: when asked to provide a credible list of reasons why a Homosexual household is considered to be abusive for children, I cannot provide one, and just complete ignore it.

When shown that Humans are part of the Animal Kingdom and called upon my mistake, I ignore it (don't apologize and say "oops, my mistake).
