Look who's talking...If you were happier in your own life, perhaps you would be less concerned about how others live theirs. Or perhaps you're just angry with yourself because you lack the courage to come out--just yet. Who knows?
Because I find homosexual behavior to be disgusting, immoral and generally something society need not encourage, of course it must mean I am a closeted homosexual?
It's typical for someone who's immoral to project his own thought's, feelings and motivations onto others.. I suppose it makes them feel better about themselves.
Do I want homosexuals arrested? Yes.Oh, great idea. We could build internment camps for them, make them wear yellow stars or some other identifying insignia, and, later, extirminate them.
It seemed obvious to me, and I pointed it out, that any further reasoned argument had eluded you. I have and will continue to address any points you care to bring up.
Because I find homosexual behavior to be disgusting, immoral and generally something society need not encourage, of course it must mean I am a closeted homosexual?Precisely. If you were comfortable with your own masculinity this wouldn't even be an issue for you. Apparently you're not, and it's killing you inside; your own self-loathing assumes the character of a general hatred for those who are more comfortable with their sexual identities.
Obviously, what you don't know is allot..
To begin with I am quite happy with me, no "loathing" whatsoever. Also, I am not allowed to "hate" homosexuals as individuals for their sin. I do hate their activities and their agenda, however..
It's not "killing me inside" and further, they can reform. It happens. No problem.
However, what I can't do is endorce their activity and I refuse to grant them special status because of who they sleep with. That's illogical. I won't do it.
I also refuse to accept their agenda or any attempt at moral equivelance.
This is lost on you because you measure everyone by the ridiculous standard of how far they endorce your own self indulgent, destructive and immoral behavior.
BTW, you sound like a bitter, bitter man. Not very "gay" at all, IMO.
Okay. Address why I should have to bear the tax burden for life-long healthcare for homosexuals who, because of their practices, have contracted AIDs, hepatitus, etc.
Address why I should sit idly by while the public schools, with my tax dollars, attempt to inculcate my children, and the children in my community, with beliefs that offend and disgust me.
That's a start.
Personally, I don't think you, or anyone, should. I don't want to either. Unfortunately, we live in a psuedo-collectivist society where our congresscreeps have passed laws forcing us to pay for other people's mistakes.
Now, you've voiced your opposition to homosexuals on those grounds... address my question from earlier. Being consistent - I know how you hate moral relativism - do you also hope to outlaw mountain climbing, skateboarding, smoking, drinking, and driving? All of those things can lead to injury and society has to pay the costs.
Address why I should sit idly by while the public schools, with my tax dollars, attempt to inculcate my children, and the children in my community, with beliefs that offend and disgust me.
If it concerns you, you shouldn't sit idly by. Have you campaigned for the school board?
ROFL...I've done more than my fair share, yes.
Obviously, what you don't know is allot..And yet I know all about you. Go figure. I only hope you can achieve some degree of peace with yourself.
I don't know how I missed that. Typical liberal Republican plan. And yet you whine when conservatives won't vote for a liberal Republican in a general.
as an overwhelming percentage of the population opposes Gay marriages.
For many good reasons:
You personify it.
