The idea of homosexuality as an "orientation" based on what you "really feel inside" didn't even exist before the late nineteenth century. Before that time, sexuality was just a matter of what you actually did. The Bible doesn't even contain a concept of "sexual orientation," because the idea didn't exist back then. It just prohibits certain actions.

But the bible doesn't promote hating gay people, any person who follows the bible's teachings and hates gay people and persecutes them/makes them feel like shit/etc are hypocrites and deserved to be called out on it.
It's dumb that a religion of love and peace gets so perverted by people who use it to judge others and to push their political/cultural agendas.
Oh fuck off Alex, the bible does promote hating gay people, it says that they should be stoned to death. How is that not promoting hate?
The problem is that the bible is so unclear and contradictory on many issues that it can be used to justify any viewpoint. And christianity is no more a religion of peace than I am the president of the USA.

Trance music doesn't promote life, so it is wrong.
Brownies do not promote life, so they are wrong as well.
etc.
An idiot, truly.

Being in school doesn't promote life, either. If people are in school a long time, they wait longer to have sex and marry, and they have fewer kids. Education is anti-life. Down with education!

Good point! The following is my regimen to ensure maximum fertility for all:
1. Women, eat lots and lots of food and don't work out -- obese girls tend to have earlier onset of puberty. Also, too much exercise can lead to disruption of the menstrual cycle.
2. Men, eat more moderate amounts of food but with lots of protein and zinc -- obesity makes impotence more likely in men, but protein and zinc bring up testosterone and sperm count.
3. Everyone should live within a minute of a hospital to ensure minimal complications or deaths of women and children from pregnancy.
4. No recreational drugs for anyone, except Viagra and maybe some alcohol to spur on the sex drive.
5. No television, movies, or portable music, and no artificial lighting in residences after sundown. This will ensure that people get so bored that they screw one another's brains out.
6. No education beyond the minimal skills necessary to do menial jobs.
7. And of course all methods of birth control must be destroyed.
Anyone who opposes this brilliant plan is anti-life.

hey ok...i understand there are some man are acting a little girly but that's ok...homosexuality isn't ok for me because i see it as "Hey everyone's fucking a girl...i'm going to be the cool guy and i'm going to brake all moral and religious rules and i'm going to fuck a guy"
And it's not natural...and also...not my concern if someone would rather have a CROWN than a SWORD between his legs

i think those methods do present a form of a personal choice...you want it? OK...you don't? birth control

Two topics that never fail to bring the drooling idiots out of the woodwork: homosexuality and abortion.
