Everyone makes their own decisions.



Then you shouldn't be gay. But your beliefs on the matter don't dictate the civil rights of others.



Good, we're on the same page.



No one is asking for your approval.



Imagine being a gay person and how "uncomfortable" you'd have felt most of your life.

There are many ways to be uncomfortable. My parents had gay friends and absolutely adored them. I have gay friends and we keep a respectful silence on personal matters.

Would you describe yourself as a relativist? And if so are you absolutely sure?
Maybe? I am not sure. My moral standards have molded and evolved over time from a variety of sources. She was trying to pin my morality from a source outside of God to hold it against me (which she attempted to do and failed miserably).

Not anymore, but interracial marriage used to be viewed as such.
And when it was viewed that way was that wrong?

Let me clarify the question....

When interracial marriage was viewed as immoral and illegal was that wrong? Were those invalid views and bad laws?

Race is not a sin nor biologically perverted.

neither is being gay.

It is however a sin when racists falsely claim that blacks most of the rapes in this country. Just like when you falsely claim "In fact a large amount of pedophiles ARE homosexuals." and "There is a VERY REAL link between the two."

Um, yes they were. For the many of the same reasons with holding marriage rights to homosexuals is today.

You think being homosexual is biologically normal?

Dude.... think about it. Organs are designed with specific functions in mind. And, well..... you should be able to figure it out. :vomit:
There are examples of homosexual activity in other animals as well, not just people. If homosexuality was strictly a perverted/sinful state of mind of man, why does it exist elsewhere? If you are going to argue that homosexuality isn't a part of natural existence, you must also agree that your view is inconsistent with other natural examples.

just like having dark skin or being left handed.

your prejudice is easy to figure out even if you weren't going around falsely trying to associate homosexuality with pedophilia

He isn't prejudiced. He doesn't buy into the unending pressure to accept homosexuality as an alternate life style. It is an abnormal life style which people are free to choose.

He is passing an unfair judgement on a group of people based on his own personal bias and bigoted opinions. How is that NOT prejudice?
