'Gay Days'? The reality of gender-disorientation pathology - (strong arguments!)

TOWNHALL.COM ^ | JUNE 3, 2005 | MARK ALEXANDER

[Charles Wickman]

I am afraid I disagree that to love someone else is abnormal.

[Graybeard58]

Are you saying that DU accepts equality under the law?

DU is composed of and accepts liberals, socialists and communists.

[Andy'smom]

It is when you want to marry your own gender!

[Charles Wickman]

I don't propose favoritism, I don't think we should teach homosexuality in schools.
I think we should allow gays to have the same rights that heteros have.

[KC_for_Freedom]

all the same rights that others have.

I see nothing wrong with a homosexual marrying someone of the opposite sex. Except that the marriage partner would have to be marrying for something other than sexual love. I see no reason in the world why homosexuals cannot live a life "in the closet so to speak" and continue to allow "normal heterosexual society" to dominate and form the opinions of mankind.

When you say there is no evidence of homosexual embracing societies faltering, you overlook several societies in the past that did embrace free homosexual love and did indeed falter. My personal experience suggests that homosexual behavior includes hitting on young straight males for recruiting purposes. It is this behavior that needs to be controlled. Permitting homosexual marriage will only foster more homosexual behavior. A change in society that society certainly should have a healthy debate about first.

[Charles Wickman]

I disagree.
But your opinion is not unexpected.
If your son or daughter was gay, you might have a different point of view.

[Delphinium]

I think, sadly, that some people are gay from birth. Like a someone with black skin or a congenital birth defect,

Black is not a birth defect.

Just because someone is born a "wild child" does not excuse them of their crimes.

homosexual sex is very unnatural and harmful to ones body.

Most child molesters say they have had these desires since a young age, should we allow them all the normal rights?

[Charles Wickman]

So letting gays live "in the closet" is okay. That's showing a bit of tolerance.
I never said child molestation should be allowed in or out of the closet.
If a man tried to "recruit" me, i.e. hit on me or proposed something I didn't agree to, I would simply say no.
If you think you might be swayed by such proposals...maybe you should join the team!
Just teasing!

[Charles Wickman]

I neverr said black was a birth defect...see the OR in my post?
I was using historical intolerance of blacks to make a point.

[Charles Wickman]

Just because someone is born a "wild child" does not excuse them of their crimes.

Crimes should be punished, but I don't think it is a crime to be gay.

[Delphinium]

If your son or daughter was gay, you might have a different point of view.

just because a family member committs adultry, manufactures drugs, or steals does not mean I have to think it is right.

[Delphinium]

Being born with perverted desires does not make them right.

And you lumped being born black with being born birth defected. They are totally different.

[Charles Wickman]

You have twisted my argument.
I still say it is not a crme to be gay, just societally unaccepted. (for now)

[KC_for_Freedom]

I never said that "tolerance" was a virtue, it is the multiculture crowd that repeats this mantra. I will accept that tolerance should be used in so far as commiting criminal acts against people with diffeernt beliefs.

As to just saying no? At some age even you were vulnerable. The homosexual predator is pretty much always ready for new experiences.

And as for the "maybe your anti homosexual feelings are really latent homosexualism, homophobic etc", forget about it. Those are also tools of the homosexual activist, of which I now believe you are one. I have said all I intend to on this thread.

[Charles Wickman]

How are they different?

[infocats]

...I believe homosexuality is a choice...

If true, then its converse (heterosexuality) must also be true!

[Delphinium]

Are you asking me how being born black and being born with birth defects is different?

[Charles Wickman]

I have said all I intend to on this thread.
Don't worry, saying more doesn't make you gay!
I am not an activist, just concerned about gay-bashing and equal rights.

[Sir Francis Dashwood]

What baffles me is how 3% of any population can manage to gain such an unbalanced amount of political clout, which appears to result in unfair favoritism toward a very tiny minority, often intruding upon the equally valid rights of the vast majority not to be offended by ever-increasingly blatant public displays of unattractive, (often nauseating) "in your face" deviant behavior.

I could clarify your bafflement... too many gelded men that never learned to use a sword or a rifle...

It is that simple... Ask yourself why we have so many child abductions and Michael Jackson still wastes oxygen...

[Charles Wickman]

I guess I am asking how is it that we make instantly make negative associations...black is apparently okay, but birth defects are bad?
