Give more rights to homosexuals?????? Is it just me or are we stepping back into time. All this reminds me of back in the old days when colored people were sayed to be bad and worthless and no good and they didn't have any rights.

Us homosexuals are humans just like every body else. I am a red blooded american that pays his taxes and flies the stars and stripes out in my front yard to show I am prowd to be an american. Why as am american should I have restrictions on how I live or whom I date or marry just because I am homosexual?? I am no different than the next man exept whom I sleep with. This is sappose to be such a great nation and a free nation but every thing we do is against the law or not aprooved. All these so called leaders of ours need to get there heads out of there b*tts and stop worring about how much money is in there pocket book and start seeing the real picture about the way our country is turning out. Get off our case about being gay and start worring about the homeless and abused kids and the drug problems and the starving.

Guess I better answer the main question huh?

My views on homosexuality are......Live and let live If some one is gay, oh well. If some one is straight, oh well. There are more important things in life to worry about than whom some one sleeps with.

Answer 3

Personally, being a homosexual myself I actually have no problem with it. So personally I'm biased.

Religiously: my religion does not have anything against homosexuality. It stresses the importance of acting responsibly and in moderation when it comes to pleasure, but does not say that because one is sexual and romantically attracted to someone of the same gender that they are somehow seperated from God or sinners or anything bad. It is their actions that would make them bad, not who they are. Thus if a homosexual rapes someone or knowingly does harm to someone, then my religion says that rape and harm are wrong and bad. It is not more bad because the person is a homosexual instead of a heterosexual. They are both equally bad.

Arrogant and full of themselves and nasty like evangelicals?
Even though I'm gay and probably should defend all gay people, I actually have met gay people that are arrogant, full of themselves, and are nasty a lot like the evangelicals that go around declaring that gays are, well, wrong. From what I can tell, based upon my own encounters with these gay people and the discussions we have had, the reason for their behavior usually stems from having to confront evangelicals a lot in their life (in their family, at their work, when they go shopping, when they go to the doctor, when they go out to eat, etc). They seem to be very bitter and often many of them are exChristians who were forced out of their churches, told that God didn't love them and that they couldn't be a Christian, etc, etc, etc. Lots of really horrible stuff. All of that added to constantly coming in contact with evangelicals and Christians who want to basically keep the "your evil, your bad, your wrong, repent sinner" sort of talk going and gay bashing usually tends to make them very very bitter. What then happens, unfortunately, is that they start to treat everyone, including some other gay people...especially spiritual gay people regardless of their religion...with the very same arrogance and nastiness that they get all the time and dislike so much.

Now, I have to say two things that I think are important. While I may be a Hindu and deeply religious/spiritual and have come across both the arrogant and nasty homosexuals as well as the evangelicals and other Christians. I have to say that I am happy to actually know many, many, many, many other homosexuals, evangelicals, Christians, etc that are actually very loving, nice, caring, and not at all nasty or arrogant. For that matter I have met some pretty nasy Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Baha'is, and Pagans and yet these seem to be in the minority from all the other Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Baha'is, and Pagans that I have met in my life the same with gays and Christians. Most of the people I have met, regardless of their race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender, economic status, political affiliation, etc have actually all been, for the most part, very nice people. I'm not sure if that is just because I live in Oklahoma (I'd hope not) or because I'm just lucky to meet these folks, or what ever else. All I know is I have met them and it influences me greater on what I think of people of those religions, etc than those that often are very loud, make a lot of noise, say a lot of hurtful or mean things, and overall tend to not represent the larger majority of people from their own faith, etc, traditions.

I am sorry if you have not met such people in your life or if when you have they have been in the minority instead of the majority.

Thanks for the great question. It was very good to ask personal and religious viewpoints. Thanks for clarifying that. You ask really great questions. I hope that I answer them just as well for you.

Peace be with you.

Answer 4

I am not sure that all homosexuals are arrogant and full of themselves but I feel as if they have to seem arrogant because they feel as if the world is already against them. It is sort of like a fake air that they put around them so they dont have to defend themselves. I personally believe that homosexuality is not wrong, it is not my preference, but i am not against it. Preachers preach about it being so wrong in the bible but I am a religious person and everyone takes parts of the bible and uses it to their own advantage, they interpret it differently. I haven't read it yet.

Answer 5

Gay people are just fighting for the same rights that others already have. This is a gay rights movement, so there's going to be lots more talk about gay life than many people are used to hearing. Marriage should NOT be just between a male and a female - that's why we have church AND state and it goes against human rights to restrict it to just heterosexuals. I am gay and proud and I hear dumb, negative, hypocritical, violent, ignorant crap all the time. I also hear groundless, opinionated comments from religious fanatics, too. Let me tell you all: Being gay is NOT a "choice" we make. Did YOU "choose " to be heterosexual? No, you didn't. Being gay is by nature. Trust me on this - I know that to be TRUE because I AM gay and I know more about being gay than heterosexuals do! We are also here to stay and our life is no threat to anybody else's. Heterosexuals don't have to love it - but you'd better get used to it being here. If you don't like it - don't look. But don't hate.

Answer 6

I think homosexuality is wrong. In the Bible, they talk about procreation. For those out there who think homosexuality is so right then how come 2 women or 2 men can't have kids? Because this is not how its suppose to be. I know alot of gay people. I dont hate them, some of them are the nicest people ever. I just dont like their lifestyle.

Answer 7

I dont not beleive that homosexuality is ok in any form. However, I think that they deserve to be treated with the same respect that any one else is treated with. I dont think however that we as a nation should change 260 year old laws to give more rights to homosexuals. I beleive the Consitution is clear that marriage is between a man and a women

Answer 8

I'm a Catholic all the way. The funny thing is, I don't think homosexuals are bad, or evil, etc. I think if God created them, then He loves them just like He loves heterosexuals.
People say things about other people when they don't understand them, so they make assumtions. And you know what assuming does right? Makes and *** out of U and ME.

Answer 9

I think that God made people the way they are for a reason. Whatever makes people happy is their choice and their freedom (so long as they don't impose on someone else's rights). I think everyone deserves to be happy and if you're happy with someone of the same sex, then good for you. Everyone deserves to be in love. Still, I don't want to see anyone, gay or straight, making out or anything. I think PDA is gross in general, regardless of sexuality.

Answer 10

I happen to be lesbian, and despite what all the hateful Bible-thumpers are coming in here are saying, it is NOT a choice! we are born this way. God created us all and He doesn't make mistakes!
and, I don't know where you live, or maybe you don't know that many people but, speaking for myself and every other gay/lesbian I know...we are not (nor are most of us) arrogant and full of ourselves. you need to meet a few more of us before you make a blanket statement like that!

Answer 11

I think we are all human and there are always extreme people on every side of every view and religion and race and sexuality and ever other thing that separates us.I think being a homosexual is fine if that is who you are and what brings you happiness.I live by the rule that if it doesn't hurt you then it isn't yours to judge.
