Why shouldn’t schools preach tolerance? Like it or not, gay people exist and the children of today are absolutely, definitely going to meet a gay person or gay people in their lifetimes so why is a bad idea to instil a compassion and understanding for these people?

Now, please tell me you don’t seriously believe that it’s a choice? I mean, I know for a FACT that I could never “choose” to be gay, and that’s regardless of how many people tell me that being gay is ok or how pride parades I see. It’s not like it’s something that can be “promoted”, so why bother promoting a intolerance of it?

…………………………………

The problem with your viewpoint is that a government run school should not be teaching kids about being gay. Simply mention homosexuality,define it,and go on to the next subject. Treating people with compassion is a great way of life, however to actively promote the gay lifestyle at a government run instution, is NOT the place to do it. Especially in front of young kids. That is the rub here. It’s a parents job to teach values to children, NOT the government. If you want to teach your kids that being gay is ok, then do so. Just don’t be doing it in school.

I have a cousin and a sister who are gay and that’s fine by me. I don’t care what they do in the privacy of their own homes, but to actively campaign about it, then I get a tad upset.

I have the freedom to live my life in anyway I see fit as long I don’t try to force my values down your throat. The folks on the left believe just the opposite.

People like you – braindead bigots – are why so many are turning away from Christianity. I suggest you heed your own advice and start thinking about things rationally.

See my original statement

On what grounds? Your lofty opinion? My beliefs are wholly rational and Biblically based.

People are turning away from Christianity for the same reasons they always have. They love their sin more than their Savior. All 3 above examples are sinful, and thus evil. If that is too much to sink into your ignorant skull then continue to flame away with your empty name calling.

All 3 are committing evil acts. You need to grow a brain

Illegal aliens are hardly “evil”, but they are breaking the law. Abortion doctors are paid to end the lives of potential children. Gay people, uh, well they fall in love with the same sex. Honestly, are you that bigoted that you would compare gay people to wicked abortion doctors and law breaking illegals?

You need to do some serious growing up.

All 3 are committing evil acts. You need to grow a brain

On what grounds? Your lofty opinion? My beliefs are wholly rational and Biblically based. By your ignorant standard I would have a “fear” of illegal aliens and a “fear” of abortion doctors because I believe those people are commiting acts of evil as well.

So, illegal aliens and abortion doctors are comparable to gay people?

You need to do some serious growing up.

then you do you have an irrational, unwarranted fear

Phobic indicates a phobia or fear, I have no fear of homosexuals. See #105. kk thnx.

If you seek to deny gay couples the right to marriage, then you do you have an irrational, unwarranted fear (”irrational fear” being the actual definition of the word phobia).

assuming that everyone on the right must be homophobic

Those at Mardi Gras, engaging in lewd behavior of any kind are ARRESTED! Those on the beach during spring break, engaging in lewd behavior, are ARRESTED!

Those gays participating in open sex and other lewd behavior, in full view of the public, get a pass.
Explain again why it isn’t ALL unacceptable.

Again, you’re making this up! I always knew the argument against gay people was extremely weak, but when so many in this thread alone have resorted to actually inventing their own, convenient versions of reality really is telling. No one ever gets arrested at Mardi Gras. Look, I’m not saying that the horrid scenes at the Folsom Street Fair or at various pride parades are ok, because they absolutely are not, but to use those examples as a reason to deny gay people basic rights and to promote intolerance is – in a word – despicable.

Some people have accused me of being a liberal; to them I say this: it is you who is behaving like the stupid liberal, assuming that everyone on the right must be homophobic. I am a passionate conservative, but I do not and never again will support the terrible and unfair discrimination against gay people that is so widely mandated by my fellow conservatives!

Those gays participating in open sex and other lewd behavior, in full view of the public, get a pass.
Explain again why it isn’t ALL unacceptable.

Oh and I didn’t make up the loophole go read it before you suggest stupidity!
