I was about 5 and saw my first Playboy. And 7 when this smoke show called Rosemary was on my dad's bowling team, she could not bowl but boy she made me look forward to going bowling with dad.

Unless the women are hot and you get to watch and pleasure yourself, right? Then it's okay... just a bit.Having same-sex attraction is not wrong. Acting on it is wrong.
Why?Having same-sex attraction is not wrong. Acting on it is wrong.
It just really depends on what your moral authority is.Why?
It’s some comments in these kind of threads that remind me I still do have some good old liberal stances. .
Explain that to me. I'm a Christian and just don't see it as 'wrong'.It just really depends on what your moral authority is.
The Bible says it's wrong.Explain that to me. I'm a Christian and just don't see it as 'wrong'.
But are you an Adam and Eve were real people Christian?Explain that to me. I'm a Christian and just don't see it as 'wrong'.
On the other hand, they are more than willing to raise, provide, and care for children who are in need of adoptive parents.The single purpose of a species is to reproduce and ensure its survival. When you have members of the species who have no interest in that one could at the least consider them abnormal.
Stepping way out on a branch here, I know, but I'm skeptical at @Ostatedchi is one who has been "taught to accept by the sick perverted left".Thats only because the sick perverted left has taught you to accept it.
Bible says a lot of stuff is wrong, but none of it seems to elicit quite the hard-line response as this topic.The Bible says it's wrong.
Look, no one in this thread wants to make homosexuality illegal. I just want to have the freedom to disagree with that lifestyle. You and I both know the radical gay lobbyists are not going to stop with "agree to disagree." They're going to press the issue.

You’ve got to admit that dicks and buttholes make this a salacious topic compared to mixing fabrics and women preachers.
Why do you care about other people's dicks and buttholes?
Agreed. Leaning on “but the Bible sez” to repudiate the behaviors one finds personally gross while overlooking/rationalizing other behaviors seems quite disingenuous to me.You’ve got to admit that dicks and buttholes make this a salacious topic compared to mixing fabrics and women preachers.
High-ranking religious officials from America’s biggest foreign aid recipient said much worse than that, recently.

I personally think two dudes getting busy is gross as well. Not my cup of tea. But I just don’t think that automatically equates it to being amoral.If being gay is not a choice, why is finding it repulsive a choice? I would totally get down with five playboy playmates, but it wouldn’t surprise me if Christians thought it was a sin.
Stop trying to project onto me.
Either own what they said, explain it, or disavow it.
From a Christian perspective,I don't think so at all.Agreed. Leaning on “but the Bible sez” to repudiate the behaviors one finds personally gross while overlooking/rationalizing other behaviors seems quite disingenuous to me.

You'd see the same response if there were "Adultery Pride" parades popping up all over the country.

I can compare both and just did.You can't equate homosexuality with adultery (or other things like pedophilia).
In the case of adultery, a third party (the spouse) is potentially hurt by the relationship between the 2 consenting adults. In the case of a homosexual relationship, they aren't hurting anyone (except for maybe your snowflake feelings). There is no "victim".

What forced compliance?Ok fine, but why the condemnation and legal forced compliance with people who do think it is amoral?
Can I think open marriages are wrong? Do I have to make a cake with two males and three females on it? What about rough sex, choking and punching between consenting adults? Can I think that’s wrong? Teach my kids it’s wrong? Can I tell others I think it’s wrong without losing my career and friends?
Yes, I believe SCOTUS ruled that you don’t have to make an Eyes Wide Shut cake if you don’t agree on moral/religious grounds. And I agree.Can I think open marriages are wrong?

You’re trying to dodge and deflect with your name calling and projection. Even a child could see what you’re doing.
Those were public statements from public officials — not propaganda.
You should explain to the board why you embrace what they said — or explain to the board why they said it — or disavow thier statements.
What forced compliance?
Nobody’s making you or me be gay.
And the final result of that case was?Cake bakery case.
Cake bakery case. Teaching homosexuality as an option to kindergarteners in public schools. Using public property for gay pride parades. Flying rainbow flags on government buildings that are co owned by people who find it immoral.
Do you really think Boston is going to allow the request to be honored for the Straight Pride parade?Just because you’re offended by it doesn’t mean your sensibilities are more important than anyone else’s.
If a gay pride group gets a permit for a parade, that’s their right. I find the Westboro loonies even more repulsive, but the law still protects their right to assemble.
Who co-owns a government building? If the owner of the building wants to do it, what’s the issue?
