For anyone under the age of 40 (or thereabouts), three questions: homosexuality, race, and God?

Question

I have been having an ongoing conversation with my boyfriend about how most people in our generation respond to these ideas conceptually- perhaps without any direct experience to work from.

So, if you could post your answers to these three questions, I would be grateful. Nuances are also appreciated over a simple "yes" or "no".:

1. Do you believe that homosexuality has moral implications?

2. Do you believe one race of people to be superior to another (or all others)?

3. Do you believe in a God/Gods, and- whether you do or not- what is your belief about how the universe came into existence, and what God's role in moral behavior is?

Answer 1

1. Sexuality itsself has moral implications. Abuse is immoral no matter what one's sexual preferences.

2. Race has nothing to do with physical, moral or mental acuity.

3. I personally do not believe in a God.

4. No, I'm not gay, lesbian, bi or transgendered - just in case you wondered.

Answer 2

1. I believe homosexuality is something I know nothing about because I am not gay. I feel that if someone is gay then that is their business. They are not hurting me or anyone else so, they are just fine the way they are.

2. No, I don't believe any race is superior to any other race. I think every race has different cultures and ways but, we are all equal.

3. I believe there is a God but, I'm not religious at all. I'm not sure about how the universe came into existence because we were always taught that God made it from Adam and Eve but, the scientific way makes more sense to me. God's role in moral behavior? I feel that God made us the way we are but, I feel that we have the choice most of the time to be who we are.

Answer 3

I do not believe that homosexuality has any negative moral implications. It is simply who you are, just as being straight / hetero has no negative moral implications.

I do not believe that one particular race is superior then others.

I do believe there is a higher power. If God is what we choose to call it then fine.....I believe in God.I do not know how the world came into existence and I am comfortable not knowing. I think we (people) have the need to know absolutely everything, I am comfortable not knowing.
Some people fear God and this helps them live by a certain morale code, others respect God and this helps their morality. Whatever makes you a better person is great.

Answer 4

1. No it doesn't. Morality is not the exclusive domain of religion.
2. No, there is only one race.
3. No gods. The current theory that seems to fit the facts is "M-Theory" but its predictions are still being tested. Life evolved, there is an overwhelming mount of evidence for this.


Edit:
46, and an atheist.

Answer 5

1. no. homosexuals have no place in modern society, nor purpose. gay guys can't have kids, and gay women can't either (unless the do the test tube thing, but still)
2. in terms of race, no.
3. i don't believe in god. i need physical proof of his existence. im not sure how our universe was made. there are more than one you know. so i think if we figure out how another one was made, we can figure out ours. like i said, i don't believe in god, but i was catholic at one time, and i was told that we were made in his image. so supose he is responseable for the gays,drug addicts, sex offenders, murderers, etc.

Answer 6

1. No
2. Yes
3. Sometimes
