You so need your ass kicking. It isn't a disease and it doesn't need to be cured. It needs to be accepted by people. Damn religious people stopping the progression of society. If anyone is sick and wrong it is you.
|
Exactly. Everybody who have/ got cancer as well. How degrading to say that "they're sick". Damn doctors, stopping the progession of society. Psychiatrists asserted, till they got reduced to silence, that gay people were sick.

And about following the bible to the letter. I strongly disagree with that. I mean, I'm an antitheist, but even the strongest christian must admit that you have to be slightly open minded about bible enterpretations.
You really are just proving yourself to be a close-minded, intolerant, stupid individual.

True!

Bravo Rich, bravo.
This next bit may be proving my own ignorance, but whatever happened to "loving your neighbor," DS?
|
If Larry, who's dressed for his wedding, gets some bird poo on his back, then I suggest it could be a tender thing to tell him about that.
Or;
A doctor walks on a beach. There he sees Lars, who takes a walk with his five-year old son. The doctor sees that lars has a little birthmark, which's affected by cancer. It's hard to notice, but the welltrained doctor sees it clearly. if the doctor "loves his neighbor as much as he loves himself" then I suggest he should explain that to him. The son would of course see the doc as stupid or selfish, 'cause he has made his father sad. Kids can't see that far. The kid will hopefully grow up.
I'd add that I don't care if Larry wants to bath in bird poo from morning to evening, but I suggest it would be stupid not to inform him 'bout the bird influenza.
Or if Lars wants to raise cancer tumours so large that he has to pull them around on a wheel barrow then I'm not going to stop him. But if he says that it's normal to have "such spots", then many people, who have the same problem, maybe die because they listened to him.
Many homosexualls aren't happy and commit suicide, others make themselves to accept it as unchangeable.
The therapist, by the name of Pearls cured a homosexuall man, by trying to make him understand that it didn't was the sexuall act that was the point, but the only method to orgasm, which Pearls meant was the case.

Nicely said rich , have a pat on the back.
Straight story.
There is nothing wrong with homosexual couples , I doesnt matter if they are man or woman . As long as they love each other , im fine with it all . They should be allowed to adopt , my best friends parents are lesbians , shes a test tube baby . But me and my friends and her friends have the common sense To not tease her about that . Lets remember we are all human beans

You n' Mr Bean, maybe.

And dont have the right to treat people awfully just because the love someone of the same sex.
|
I agree with you, but nobody's got the rights to treat any sick humans badly. One of these terrifying deeds is to attack their sickness condition. If I'd say that every homosexuall were watching CNN or eating green apples, then nobody would say that I'd need my "ass kicking"

SO ARE TEN MILLION OTHER PEOPLE ON THIS PLANET!
If he drives me away from god, then... where do I sign up to go to hell? If being gay means I won't have to deal with that prick, then I'd turn gay in an instant. Oh wait no, I don't have to turn gay because I'm already in violation of another huge ass thing which is marked as a sin in the bible. But I'l let you figure that one out for yourself.
|
Your wrath exposes your own prejudices against sick people. If you have to kick prejudiced ones - then kick yerself in "yer ass".
:
|
But what are you saying DS? That god is only powerfull when it fits the bibles story? Why isn't he stopping all the bullshit that goes on around this planet? Why are millions of people about to starve to death in Africa? Nice god you have, what a prick.

There's a Swedish proverb that says: It's better to be quiet and let people think yer stupid than open yer mouth a prove that you are.

By claiming that homosexuality is a disease, DS, you've caused me to lose a lot of respect I had for you.
|
If it was that simple to loose yer respect, the it wasn't worth much. In my world, you think, as long as possible, great things 'bout yer friend and true respect has to mean that you've to invest time to really understand what the friend means, before you judge him/ her. Of course i don't believe that homosexuallity is a sickness that infects, like a cold does.
I believe thata there are two types of homosexuallity.
1.Those who are hetrosexuall, but in their picture of themselves and their own pleasure as a case in life, become homosexuall. We can read it in Romans 1:24-27 about the men in sodom. These people doesn't need healing, but deliverance.
2. Those who have had problems in their growth. These need healing, because of their menatly wounds.

Something else I'd like to add: People claim to "Let go, and let God," but from what I've seen, a lot of religious folk go far out of their way to butt in and put an end to things that go against their beliefs.
|
Otherwise it's the americans who have made themselves famous to "butt in and put an end to things" around the world.

No offense, but that's really not anything that a non-religious person can possibly comment on.
Whilst I do agree with you that the bible should be open to discussion and interpretation, I also think that if you consider yourself religious (which I used to but don't currently) then you have to follow it to the letter, within your own interpretation.
So, to give a totally made up example, if the bible had a commandment "Thou shalt not attire thyself in garments tinted red" then you could decide to be strict and not wear dark orange or burgundy. Or you could be lenient and allow yourself to wear them and pink and purple as well - but not pure red. Or you could even do some research to prove that that commandment was actually directed at the High Priest when he conducted his annual Rainbow-Day services. But, as long as you considered yourself religious you could not decide to ignore that commandment entirely, just because you wanted to wear your new red sweater.

I agree with you completely.

Oh come on. I'm not going to say everything in the bible is rubbish because it isn't, but come on? Adam and Eve? Bullshit.

In your dreams pal.

And that thing about sacrificing doves because of the menstrual cycle and the stoning of homosexuals? Word for word bible following in my eyes = Bollocks.
|
That´s the old covenant. We live in the new one.

|
As I've said previously, I've known religious gay people who don't see any conflict, mainly because when you look into it (especially from the original hebrew text) the bible isn't as black and white as most people imply.
|
Can ya gimme
one example, please?
:
|
God help us all. You really are a fool if you believe any of that. Religion does not reject any of those things. Just look at what was said elsewhere about different perspectives on creation and six days, where the days may not have been literal 24-hour periods but rather six 'ages' of the world. Science has never proven that there is no life after death, simply because there is no way of disproving the metaphysical. And, what's more, religion never said that homosexuality is not genetic.
|
Romans 1:24-27.
:
|
All it says (depending on your interpretation) is that if you shouldn't have same-sex sex, whether you are gay or not. As for the whole gay=bad thing; I agree with you completely that that is a terrible thing. But you can't blame religion for that. For every complaint you have you should only blame people. They're the ones who find it convenient to degrade minorities and take religion as a weapon to prove whatever they want.
|
I'm the "minority" in tis group.
I believe that there is a God and I believe in his opinion.
I'm not saying that those who have other opinions than me ought to be maltreated, degraded or despised. You've got
your opinion/s, but say that those who can't share it, are stupid and intolerant and ought to become maltreated. Which one of us
is intolerant?
