Is being gay so bad?  |
|
Alright, first off let me admit that I'm gay so that you will understand this. Now that's finished. I have read a lot of stuff on here that you see a bunch of people trashing gay people and the gay community in general. What I'd like to know is what is truly wrong with being gay? Do not give me a lame excuse about how one man and one woman in the Bible, blah blah blah. It's put simply why I don't want to hear about the Bible. Personally, I am a southern baptist and Christian since I was a born. I was born into the community, and still exist in the community. I have read the Bible, and can interpret it, a hell of lot more, and better, than most of the heterosexual friends that I have. The problem with the Bible for your excuses is that in judging me you ignore where it says not to judge, and many other ways in general. Overall, you using the Bible as a reference of prejudice ends up making you look like a hypocritical dumbass. I can read anything and find the part that I like in something, but what most of you who use the Bible do is read part of it and say, "right there, that's it." Yet you fail to mention other parts which go against how you react. So tell me, without any reference to the Bible, why being homosexual is so bad.

thegview (259) | 4 years ago | It's not that I'm worried about what people think, because I am out to family and friends and none of them have problems with it. We grew up accepting a person for who one was, seeing how there was a lot of racism in the neighborhood and my best friends were black. I got to experience what it was like to have words being thrown at you.

thegview (259) | 4 years ago | here's some thoughts to feed on, you can have religion, you can reproduce, and if you dont have someone to reproduce a child with you can take up the responsibilities that heterosexuals have thrown to the side as guild to them having sex with no protection...otherwise known as adopting a child

Melizzy (966) | 4 years ago | Other things you can't do when being gay....Marry, have the same rights as everyone else (your icon is of an African American. I would think you'd realize the wrongness of limiting people or denying rights. Alabama lunch counters ring a bell with you Jwanza?)
We actually need to reach zero population growth. Our ecosystem can not sustain itself with this many people.
Things straight men can't do--orally please a woman (most and probably you, won't go down on a woman), decorate; perhaps you enjoy milk crate as end tables. Entertain; pizza out of the box and beer out of a bottle does not an engagement party make. Fashion; jeans that are three sizes too big and hanging down around your ankles is NOT attractive and won't get you anywhere in the corporate world.

thegview (259) | 4 years ago | I have to say, thank you so much for admitting that. It's very hard to find someone that actually will. I have experienced those that are swingers, I'm sure all of you know what one is, downing and trashing gays. Yet they play with partners, and fail to admit that they are practicing in bisexual behavior.

thegview (259) | 4 years ago | Yet, in the end as long as you come to God and admit that you have done things that are wrong then you will be "admitted." What's funny is those who skip over Revelations and fail to listen that says when preachers of the word of God are going to be amongst the "left behind," and some of them not permitted at all.

thegview (259) | 4 years ago | pelya if you're going to make a reference about something being a sin after being asked not to then, by me asking not to refer to the bible as your excuse, thus sins are in the bible and not in all religions, then at least make reference to where you believe it states this

7. angelicEmu (629) | 4 years ago | It's not. I'm not a christian, and I don't think that a person's having a certain belief-system is ever an excuse for bigotry. Anyone who is stupid enough and hateful enough to insult you or discriminate against you because of your sexuality which is part of who you are, and how you were born, isn't worth wasting your time talking to. Some people are just hateful, whether it's down to upbringing or letting life's experiences worp them, there's no point in bothering with people like that. They have their views and they're wrong, but what are you going to do? Bigotry exists, and it's a horrible fact of life. Try not to let it get you down, as not everyone in the world is like that!

charlieb1979 (313) | 3 years ago | Thanks for this reply. I think the big issue with discrimination--against gay people, African Americans, religious minorities, and other socioecomonical minorities-- is ignorance. Peopla are afraid, even terrified and petrified--of the unknown and unfamiliar. In cases like this, people tend to be set in stone as to what they believe is right and what is wrong. I guess I've been somewhat lucky as a Gay man..when people find out that I am gay almost all of them have been really wonderful about it some have not understood and most have asked really intellegent and engaging questions in an attempt to understand.
It is also a fact that there are some people that will always make the choice to remain ignorant by saying "Gay issues don't effect me" but, in some way, gay issues effect everyone. statistics say that any one person has a connection to at least one person who is gay

9. rawpoet (1158) | 4 years ago | I find it very rare that people are gay bashing on myLot. I know it happens, but still, it's very rare.
I know what the bible says, and heck, I was even married to a Pastor who drilled me day and night, and thank God I'm now divorced.
I thought at one point in my life that I could be bisexual, and even met a woman from online. I had my experience and realized it wasn't for me. She was 100 percent gay, and taught me a lot as we were friends for about a year in a half.
I thought I was going to go to Hell because of what I did, and she kept reassuring me it wasn't going to happen. "God doesn't want hate. God wants to see love." I'll never forget what she said.
Be happy with who are, and to hell what others think. You are most important.

rawpoet (1158) | 4 years ago | Additionally, EVERYONE in this world is a hypocrite. Who the heck practices what they preach? Not one person! We're all sinners.
| |
|
|
thegview (259) | 4 years ago | Which is stated within the Bible, it is a sinner that comes to God that makes it into heaven.
| |
|
|
rawpoet (1158) | 4 years ago | Actually, no. It is the ones who are Saved who make it to Heaven. Being Saved is very simple. All you have to do is have faith and believe. A lot of people think it's all about works. They are so wrong.
| |
|
|
thegview (259) | 4 years ago | They think its more about the crowns that one achieves, because they take it too literally. Also, by coming to God, I meant saved.

alexdiazgranados (507) | 4 years ago | "married to a Pastor who drilled you day and night..."
There's a bit of a pun buried in there...I think.

|
|
rawpoet (1158) | 4 years ago | alexdiazgranados, I can imagine how you'd see that. LOL!
| |
|
|
alexdiazgranados (507) | 4 years ago | rawpoet...I'm sure you could imagine how I reached that punny conclusion.
