Oh sweetie, you need to get out more. You're 18?? Christ, you haven't even begun. No wonder you don't know any happy gay people, at age 18 they are just coming out and figuring themselves out, no one is happy at that stage.
Grow up. No really, grow up. Meet gay people that have been out for 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 years. Meet people who have been with their partners for a lifetime. Read books about gay life, learn on your own instead of expecting your friend to be your token. Do the research on gay parents yourself, it all shows that our kids turn out fine. LEARN about the world around you for yourself, then you will actually know enough about what you speak.

Gay people can love themselves, often times before people come out they are seriously depressed and that is a good contributing factor of suicides (aren't Christians against suicide?)
Two gays don't make a baby, unless they use a surrogate, you are right. But in that case, when they do make genetically-linked babies, the state dosen't take them away, do they?
If gay people wanting children is so wrong, then why are there so many children waiting to be adopted? There are so many children that want a family, if you think that the children will be harmed by being adopted by gays then why don't you super-right Christians band together and adopt all of the children that are waiting for parents? That is millions of children. Unless you think that having them in orphaneges and going through the mental abuse of feeling like nobody wants them is better than having a stable home. I know if I was waiting to be adopted, I would love to go to a super-flame couple of guys, because if they are strong enough to come out and face the ridicule from people like you, I know that they would be able to handle anything that I could throw at them. Just because people are gay dosen't mean that they didn't have a childhood. They remember how they were reared and they were by a mother and a father, so "learning to be gay" is totally not going to happen. They understand feelings and they have souls.

Are you serious, are you seriously saying that "Gays" cannot love each other?? I just cannot believe that someone could say such harmful things, I am gay, I love myself, actually more now than I ever did when I was "Straight". I was living a lie, we never have gone against God and I am very spiritual, I feel I have a good relationship with God and if he truely "hated" Gays then why I am here, why do I have the heart that I have, why do I love the way that I love. You have got to sit down and ask yourself, how are we, "Gays" hurting our bodies and why is it any of your concern, we do not get into your lifestyle, we do not interfere with your life at all, so my advice is to you....learn to get a better relationship with God and truely learn how to love the right way. Thank you very much. A very proud ******!!!
It all makes sense now, I do not mean to come down on you, but looking at what you just said, you are only 18, you ahve no idea what the world posseses, please do not make judgements before you truely understand and if your best friend is "Thinking about getting out??"...first of all you cannot just get out of being gay, it is not a choice, trust me we would not choose to talked down do, to be discriminated against and have people like you all in our business. So to your Best Friend ask him if he truely is Gay or if he is just experimenting. Please stop judging people and maybe, just maybe you might be a little bit happier with your life and you might want to think about taking some higher education courses. Once again thank you very much, a very, very, very proud ******!!!

*** I sent this email to her ... hopefully it will help open her eyes. But, I feel she is too far gone for any help from us.
"I'm an ordained Minister through New Horizons Ministry. And I happen to be gay. Please, for the love of God ... stop the judging and hatred toward the other children of God. He has a plan for all of us and I don't think you are teaching the right things. Stop being such a hypocrytical bigot and leave well enough alone. If you have any questions about the gay lifestyle, please ask someone who can give you the right answers. Don't just assume you know everything, because you are far from right.
P.S. I do have a son. His mother was a crack-whore who had no means of taking care of him. So, I adopted him after she had given birth. It was tough, he was dependent and the care that was needed only God could help me with. So, please stop this now before you must face God yourself and explain your actions against the human race."

"if gay people wanna harm themselves I feel bad for you"
Gay people aren't hurting themselves by being gay. If homosexuality made them a threat to themselves or others it would be considered a disorder... which it's NOT. Homosexuality in and of itself also does not impair day to day functioning in any aspect of life. Check the DSM-IV (the big book of mental problems). You will not find homosexuality anywhere in there. Check with any relevant qualified authority... they will tell you the same.
"U guys were not given the ability to make children for a reason."
No one is "given" the ability to procreate. You either possess the ability or you don't. "Making babies" isn't a divine gift, it's a biological function. If some people DON'T or CAN'T perform that function, there's no "special reason". There's an explination, yes, but it's not part of a "plan".
"I know some hetero couples can't either. But guys u know that's a ridiculous marginal argument... U guys lost that right when u went against God"
I doubt there's anything that's more "against God", at least in your eyes, than being an atheist. Therefore, as an atheist, I'm sure I'm considered by you to have "gone against God". Why then have I given birth to a son? Why do I have such a "right"? There's nothing "marginal" about equating those unable to reproduce with their mates with those unable to reproduce with their mates. Certain heterosexuals make a conscious choice to either become involved with or remain involved with mates who cannot, for whatever reason, bear children. If doing so is a "sin" for homosexuals, why not so with heterosexuals?
"U are stealing."
Stealing from whom? This bit doesn't make a lick of sense.
"U claim that hetero couples can be abusive and messed up and all that"
They can. Deny that and you deny the statistics.
"two wrongs don't make a right.
2 gays don't make a baby."
I believe we just covered this. (1) Being gay isn't "wrong" and (2) Not being able to make a baby with ones partner isn't an "evil" thing.
"You are not in love you are in lust ... u guys don't know how to love yourselves or u wouldnt be hurting your bodies."
AGAIN, homosexuals aren't hurting themselves or others. Your one homosexual friend does NOT represent all homosexuals. If your friend is confused or depressed, that doesn't mean all homosexuals are the same. Your subjective exposure does not constitute an accurate cross-section of the gay existence.
"I will pray 4 each of your children"
They don't need your prayers. All they need is being provided to them by their parents.
"U will see God's inervention"
A nonexistent being cannot intervene.

You have no proof that gays don't love themselves. I could argue with u all day, but it would be a waste of time. Point is- I have 2 kids, 5&6 years old. You have never met me,you don't know me and I WOULD kill for my kids. My children are happy and we say prayers every night and are like any other family. So don't tell me that we can't love our kids, or that we don't love ourselves. You don't know me, so don't judge me. You just think you know so much on something that you really have no idea about. And as for your gay friend-who cares,that's his choice and I am sorry if he thinks he is hurting his self. We as people are indivisuals,we are not all the same. You need to grow up and worry about yourself-not everyone else!

Parental love is unconditional, for almost all of folk. And so the mother and dad would maximum likely come to words with their youngster's debatable sexual selection, and perchance change into softer on their evaluations about homosexuals. If this fails, and they cope with their baby badly because of it perchance the youngster will be Aiken into the care of yet another relatives. if you're terrible sufficient to effectively disown your baby because they are gay then you actually should not be allowed to have toddlers. in reality, mum and dad who're homophobic ought to no longer placed their toddlers in somebody else's care in the experience that they re gay, yet when the youngster will be emotionally or bodily abused with the help of their mum and dad as a effect of popping out the closet then it will be a sturdy theory for the youngster to be surpassed to a extra loving significant different and toddlers, for the sake of their safe practices and nicely-being.

Take up my earlier challenge.
Do volunteer work with abused kids.
They are the ones you should be praying for. Go and see all the things parents - hetero parents - do to their kids.
Don't ignore what I write.
Do it. Get a reality check.
It will take your definition of "depraved" to a whole new level.
Or read transcripts of court cases, open your newspaper, watch the evening news.
See all the stories of abuse, molestation, prostitution.
Then explain to me again why we are worse than these people.
Why they are better parents than us, because they can procreate.
p.s - I love myself... or is that I "lust" myself... either way, I'm happy with my lot. So there.
Jeezums Crikey she is only 18! There is hope for her yet!
And talking to three gay people from your age bracket is not indicative of the gay population as a whole... so don't draw conclusions from that small pool.
Otherwise, I'd think all 18 year olds are like you - righteous, ignorant, homophobic, religious to the point of fanaticism, selective in which parts of the bible they preach....
I'm so happy you are only 18. I thought I knew everything back then too.

you seriously need to find something else to do instead of coming here and repeatedly posting the same, judgmental Q&A and condemning us all the time. who are you to assume the role of God and pass judgment on others? YOU have your own issues you need to address. and, you're going to stop being politically correct? when were you ever p.c. in the 1st place?
do you even KNOW what love is? you obviously don't....as you seem to be so full of hatred towards us. I am in a committed, monogamous relationship. and it's only because of thinking like yours that we can't get married. and what do you know about us not loving ourselves? I'm not hurting my body, nor am I hurting anyone else. who I am has no effect on you, so why do you think you have any right to tell us what to do? you don't!
I'm not saying all gays/lesbians make good parents, but not all straight parents are good parents either. we can and do have the ability to make children as well.
I am not going against the God who created and loves me. We are not "stealing" anything.
you preaching intolerance instead of love and acceptance, is a sin. perhaps you need to take a step back and learn what being a "true" Christian is all about. because it's not about intolerance and condemnation. only God has the privilege of passing judgment, not you!

Your still here,,, for F u ck sakes...... Why do you think.... Just because you have an opinion, you are right? Take your self righteous bull crap and go on the religious form...... I'm a step parent and I have help raise 3 beautiful human beings..... They are loving and you will never be half the loving person they are...... I would never teach them to lie to them selves... Be something that they are not or to make someone else feel less worthy of a person because they are different..... If so many people are telling that you a not loving, rude, hurtful, when will you get a clue....
