Why is there so many religious nut homophobes on here...?

Question

I dont know if its all just american or what but where i'm from (England) nobody actually cares, you are what you are, (not to mention gays are the greatest party animals), I'm not gay but its really disturbing to realise theres still so much hate surrounding this. The most worrying thing is that reading these kind of comments i see that all of the homophobes are actually religious, and talk about 'God'. Religion is whats causing all the wars not homosexuals, so why dont all you religious nut cases back off innocent funloving people and take a look in the mirror at who is actually causing the world to dissintegrate? Its making me really angry and i'm straight! You think your all so holier than thou, well your not, your facist nastys and you need to get a life and leave innocent people alone, regardless of there sexual preference they are blatantly better people than you.

I dont mean to offend americans by the way, i quite like you as a whole, just the religious psychos.

The ones who dont have the balls to say its thier own facist opinion and feel the need to blame it on ''god''

And if you read my question properly I'M NOT GAY i just cant understand how someone calls themselves religious give them the right to think they are better than anyone else? And how theyre lives are so empty and void that they have to sl@g off anyone who is different, i mean, does it affect your own personal life in any way whatsoever? I certainly dont have time or incentive to sit imagining gay people together and retching over it, so why do you? And if you have the right to sit spouting to anyone who pretends to listen about God then why doesnt a gay man have the right to openly say he's gay? He dont try to push it on you, to brainwash you, so why do you?

And also if you read it properly I dont say all religious people are homophobes, i say all the homophobes are religious. And i notice its the religious ones who have wrote nasty answers. POINT PROVEN.

Answer 1

welcome to america

Answer 2

I too am straight and I agree with you. Unfortunately the monothesitic religions - Judaism, Christianity and Islam have a lot to say on the treatment of homosexuals. In Christianity for instance it is not a sin to be gay, but the homosexual act is. This is seen because it is "selfish" in nature and does not bring forth the product of "natural" procreation. There will always be homophobes in all the major religions, as well as those who are not religious at all. What we need to look at is prejudice and fairness, treating others as we hope to be treated ourselves.

Answer 3

second only to trollalalala's has it wrong because this is a genuine question and not venting

The religious have a blind-spot plus they can't see the evil that homophobia and any nigotry causes, the religious nut will twist and turn to defend any hatred by saying they love the sinner and other misinformation
Edit: Sergio is right as the homophobes seem to always attempt to ignore the meaning of the word homophobia

Answer 4

Because what fun would it be for them if they stayed over in R&S where they belong? Like I said before: haters can't have anything to do if they hang with a group who totally agrees with everything they say. It really is true - if we could somehow learn not to respond to their rants, taunts and obvious ignorance, pretty soon they would just go away. But I know it's a hard thing to do - I'm just as guilty as anyone else of falling for their schtick. But I really try hard not to.

Answer 5

Wow these answers are so sad....they range from spell checks to complete stupid things like saying homophobe = fear.... Homophobe means showing hatred, disapproval, OR fear of homosexuality. Thats right it means 3 different things... Wonder how long It will take for them to realize that we didn't make the choice? 15? 25 years? never??? I'm glad there are some great straight people out there that understand! Thanks!

Answer 6

I agree 100% with you and yet more people are more talk less action. I walked the pride in London with Pride and it made me sick toward the end where all the "christians" were standing. My belief is that if you are a christian be very careful of what you do and say because a christian is the biggest HYPOCRIT around.

Answer 7

Yes, it's mostly fundamentalist Christians, the bane of American existence. Sorry. I mean, I'm not sure I should apologize for them, but the fact is, they are a plague. Nobody else cares who goes with you when you go into your bedroom and close the door. Why should they? Consenting adults in private have a right to do whatever turns them on.

Answer 8

Hate the sin, love the sinner.

I personally don't hate gays. But I could see how some people may be disgusted by two guys getting it on. Its a stereotype that gay men talk with a lisp and say "girl" and "honey" without thinking about it.

Speaking of stereotypes, not all Christians hate gays. I'm Christian and don't believe in gay rights because gays are people too.

You're just as bad as though "facist nastys" by claiming anyone who loves God makes fun of gays. Hitler died already. Stop raising your arm.

Answer 9

Because when bible thumpers aren't busy trying to convert strangers on the street they are plotting against the gay community! Darn them! lol!

Answer 10

Weak, insecure, worthless people, need someone to hate. They can't face their own inadequacies so have to project them onto other people. Any minority group will usually do, but gays are a good target because you can always get the religious whackos to back you up.

Either that or they are closet gays themselves.

Answer 11

Thanks for being an ally. One day we hope that the religious right will either vanish, or accept their humanity and stop judging the rest of the world. Until then we try to take it with a sense of humor.
