when the close-minded whine that we are calling them close-minded and then they cry "I shouldn't have to accept you."
Maybe they need to see the definition of close-minded.

To Pink Mafia - I never said they do not have rights. I just think, along with others, that it is quite ironic that some will deny being one thing and then describe themselves using the definition of the word they are denying.

Ironically, the ignorant bigots are not even capable of defining themselves.

Okay Tegarst, I can't answer your question because I too am bewildered by this. I would like to say good for you, though, that you can actually form an intelligent question and make a valid point, rather than just getting hopping mad and name-calling, which many of the questions I see around here make me want to do.
Now, for you, Mom of 4: Is spreading and propigating hatred not against the bible? That was my mature response to the hateful BS you've been spreading aroud here. Here's my immature andself- indulgent one (the one you'll probably understand): I hope all your little brats grow up to be gayer than gay. Also, I hope you get mauled to death by rapid animals, you nazi.

Hmm. I haven't personally run into people that resent being called close minded so much as I encounter people who think they are open minded, yet say things like "I don't have a problem with the gays, I just don't want them hitting on me..."

Mom_of_four, I feel sorry for your kids. Your postings are totally ignorant. Do you hate Muslims too? I mean, they "go against" the Bible right? Or what about buddhists, they don't beleive in Jesus so why not throw them into the fire with gays and lesbians?

It makes me want to laugh and bang my head against the keyboard, usually at the same time!

yes. Pretty ironic. It seems that logic doesn't appeal to these people.

Interesting - are you closed minded that even the closed minded have rights?
