What does it mean when religious types say that they will not tolerate homosexuality or that we as a society should not tolerate homosexuality? What are they suggesting that we do? I am straight, but I have nothing against homosexuals. I have homosexuals where I work, where I go to school, and in other public places which I frequent. However, I do not feel that I am having to tolerate anything. Use of the word “tolerate” makes me think of two men having sex in my office while I am trying to do my job. It would be difficult to tolerate that. But if two men are having sex in their own bedroom, or have their arms around each other at the mall, or get married and have a wedding that I am not required to attend, I do not feel like that has any effect on my life whatsoever, and I do not feel that I am having to tolerate anything. Maybe religious types should mind their own business. If you think your God doesn’t like homosexuals, let him deal with it.
