Yup, acceptance is a bitch. It's hard to be completely accepted, though, when you don't accept the behavior of others, especially when their behavior does not directly harm you.

Yes, I agree with you.

I am speaking about those trying to justify it as being on the same level as heterosexuality. Trying to "normalize" it.

People can do what they want. But please, lets not try to dumb down society so you can feel justified or ok in your actions.
You're using cannibalism and 12-year-old sex (ambiguity in puberty) as ideas of things that are morally wrong. Both of these things interfere, however, with the rights of the people being eaten and usually with the rights of the 12-year-old having sex. So how does homosexuality fall into these other examples?

But it wasn't always so. At one time as soon as a girl reached puberty, she was fair game. A lot of women got married at 12/13. They suffered no damage from this when they got older.

Further, 12 year olds are not mature enough to be able to consent to a sex act. The 16-18 year old range is murkier in both these regards.

Depends on the 12 year old I would guess. I have seen some 12 year olds that are more mentally and physically mature than some 16 year olds. But as a society, we have to draw the line somewhere. Our morals tells us this.

Adult gays, on the other hand, are of consenting age and many say that they wouldn't be happy in a heterosexual relationship. I'm really failing to see the big reason why homosexuality shouldn't be considered a "normal" behavior. What is it they do that hurts themselves or hurts others, specifically?
I am sure you don't see how it hurts anyone. But you are also looking at it in a secular view point. Me sitting here badmouthing people under my breath really hurts no one. Well, no one but myself. Again, I am not trying to stop homosexuality. Just because something isn't hurting anyone in a secular point of view, doesn't suddenly make it normal or justify it as being equal.

I wasn't comparing them saying they fall into the same categories. AGAIN I was showing just because society accepts these things, doesn't automatically make it ok. That is the 3rd time now I have said this.

Fine, I'll move on:

Our society generally accepts that homosexual marriage is bad, so are you willing to accept that our society is wrong here?

Just two quick comments:

Yeah, there are some 21 year olds out there who I'm not sure are ready. We just have to say it's "ok" when 99% of people are ready, which I guess is more or less true somewhere between 16 and 18.

I am sure you don't see how it hurts anyone. But you are also looking at it in a secular view point. Me sitting here badmouthing people under my breath really hurts no one. Well, no one but myself. Again, I am not trying to stop homosexuality. Just because something isn't hurting anyone in a secular point of view, doesn't suddenly make it normal.
Right, my viewpoint is secular and that does make a difference. You and I seem to agree that state policy has to protect religious freedom, but make policy based on secular consequences (more or less.) So yeah, at the end of the day, I think we're pretty much at the point where we agree enough such that we can "get along" on this issue, so to speak.

Great talking to you, but I still think you should stop taunting the fanboys.

The comment I am making is, I am told homosexual sex is ok and justified. It's just as normal as heterosexual sex.

My conscience tells me differently. And because of that, I am being told I am a bigot and a homophobe.

In other words, if I don't "Go along" with such ideals, I am going to be called names.

It's no better than a backwoods hick calling a homosexual a faggot. It's just as demeaning and just as ignorant.

Not everyone is going to accept homosexuality as an equal. As a matter of fact, the majority does. And it's their right to. Just like it's a person's right to accept it, and partake in it.

There is a difference of letting people do what they wish, and accepting their actions. The first we should do as a country. The second is a personal matter that should never be forced. Free will.

I think we've explored this topic as much as we can and possibly more than we should have. We agree: free will is good as long as no one is exploiting the freedom of others. We disagree: homosexuality is innately wrong.

There was barely any love then: it was all about trading for political or economical favors between human communities (tribes, families, etc.)

Depends on the 12 year old I would guess. I have seen some 12 year olds that are more mentally and physically mature than some 16 year olds. But as a society, we have to draw the line somewhere. Our morals tells us this.
Adolescence is a modern phenomena (circa the end of the 1800s). Before then, you became a man as soon as you were able to prove your abilities. It is still common amongst the Inuit to let their young have the same rite of passage that has been used for millenia. A man was ready to marry once he was able to kill his firts big game (whale, or polar bear) then make is first qajaq and sleigh by himself. Then the community would recognize his as a man, and he would then kidnap the woman of his choice to flee away for several weeks in an igloo until the woman would get used the so-called husband. So habits are still current around the world.

The custom of choosing a partner for your own child is still practiced in many cultures and those marriages have for sole purpose the trading of goods and maintaining good rapports.

Whatever conscience or morals you use, it is culturally and historically relative.

I am sure you don't see how it hurts anyone. But you are also looking at it in a secular view point. Me sitting here badmouthing people under my breath really hurts no one. Well, no one but myself. Again, I am not trying to stop homosexuality. Just because something isn't hurting anyone in a secular point of view, doesn't suddenly make it normal or justify it as being equal.
So you say, and it is clear that not everyone agrees with you, though you are entitled to your own opinion in your own right.

And I have no problem with you disagreeing with me on that. Nor would I ever call you names because of it.


The way dcolton was treated in that other thread was despicable. What those people did was no better than the inbreds that go around calling homosexuals "faggots"

And really, that is the only reason I joined in on this thread.

140point IQ scores isn't the normal course of nature either.

I never said just because it wasn't the normal course, that is automatically means it's bad. You should really read the rest of my posts.

Of course it is. A certain amount of people born into this world will always have 140+ IQ. Perfectly natural.

Of the entire world less than 4% have blonde hair and blue eyes. Your flawed "logic" makes no sense. People with blonde hair and blue eyes are a very natural and it is indeed desired by many people seeing how people bleech their hair.

No thanks, I usually don't read your posts nor have I interest or inclination to do so now. The post I quoted I understand completely and your logic is flawed... incredibly ... that is obvious to everyone here now.

I wasn't posting to correct you Sinewave but rather to allow others to see how flawed and supeficial your logic here is. I couldn't care less whether you figure it out or not how wrong you are.

No, a fanboy is someone that follows another person around in threads personally attacking them and adding really nothing but silliness to threads in purpose of derailing them. Mindfad's latest example was a good one.

They usually don't like when people are getting a long. They are obsessive and usually live in their parents basements.

Part of a fictional body of people who Zim thinks are obsessed with him, except that he is just obsessed with having people notice him. Say something to disagree with, poke fun at, or otherwise include his name, and you are a fanboy. Perhaps it gives him some Internet comfort in his lonely life? Seems like a way to perpetuate the victim mentality. I don't know. I do plan on doing a search for "fanboy" one day, though, just to see how many I got out of him.

You'll notice that he does the same thing in other threads, yet whines about it when it gets done to him. This is what makes it funny.

I could be mistaken, but I believe Zimphire is a fanboy of fanboys.


This would be correct, but do expect a FUD and/or projecting graphic in no time.

But that is just the point voodoo, you took a quote out of context, and proved it wrong. Something I wasn't even saying.

So yes, you proved something I wasn't saying wrong.

Talk about obsessed. I never didn't understand you crying about the BBQ. You obviously didn't spend much time there or know anything of the people. And it's been gone for months. But you sure do like to talk about it, as if it means something.

I usually post pics that are relevant to the discussion. USUALLY. Now I have on occassion done what you have done. But not nearly like you do. Nor do I usually single out one person like a fanboy does.
You think people are obsessed with you. This is funny.

It's obvious that you are. I've read the BBQ posts before. Heck, that forum at one time was nothing but a "We hate Zimphire" forum. I used to laugh whenever someone from there would send me links of you or someone else would obsess over me.

Talk about obsessed. I never didn't understand you crying about the BBQ.

I never cried about BBQ. I made fun of it. It was a fanboy forum. Most of my "fanboys" here also posted there.

You obviously didn't spend much time there or know anything of the people. And it's been gone for months. But you sure do like to talk about it, as if it means something.
Oh it's gone now? No wonder the fanboys are at full force now.

I'm not sure I should even bother with this, but hopefully Zimphire (prize him) will be able to more coherently state his case.

Zimphire, do you say that you personally think that homosexuality is wrong, and that this is something people with morals feel innately?

Natural argument: it isn't natural to be homosexual. Are you mentioning that because homosexuality is "unnatural," it is also wrong? Again: 140 pts on the IQ test and having blonde hair and blue eyes are not "natural," either, but you say people miss the point when bringing these things up. What is your point here? You don't believe that homosexuality is on the same "level" as heterosexuality because it's unnatural? Is there more to this, or is this essentially one of your arguments for why it's wrong?--That is, because it's unnatural/not as common?

Social argument: just because a society accepts a practice doesn't make it right. So what makes it right? Do you believe in a relatively absolute right and wrong determined by a Christian God? I understand your cannibalistic and pedophiliac examples, but even you admitted that homosexuality was not in the same group as those things.

Please tie everything together; you're scatter-brained.

What I am saying is, Homosexuality is not the normal course for nature. That has nothing to do with why I think it's wrong.

I personally feel it is wrong because of my spiritual beliefs.

But I wouldn't stop homosexuals from getting equal rights if that is what they want.

Free will and all.

That is about as blunt as it gets.

Ok...I guess no real reason to have mentioned this then.

Fair enough. Thread closed (gavel bangs).

I am sure if dcolton wasn't banned by the NAZI ADMIN DEMONHOOD, he would reply in kind. nonetheless...since morality is not appreciated or condoned on this board...dcolton can't explain the evils of anal sex, aids, and biased administrators on this forum. BUT...I believe that the best response to your question is to remove demonhood as an administrator so anyone can express their opinion without fear of his heavy handed abuse of power.

If you don't like the admins, why populate the board? There are tons of forums out there, moderated and otherwise.

So the question then would be if it's right for disney to support "Gay Day" for the possible negative influence on the children, correct? I don't believe the children would be in any harm. (Maybe the parents?) Should disney promote one minority but not another? Probably not. It's a public theme park, so i don't think discrimination is right either.

Varney's effort to link the "Gay Days" event to Disney's release of a computer designed for children, however, is a new twist on the attacks.
Would that be considered "projecting" on Varney's part?

(I reposted this because it was ignored)

Freedom of speech. If gays are so discriminated against...why would a gay guy discriminate against someone with opposing views?
