newsflash that is not an opinion but a fact.

You may live how you personally want but no matter how you fantasize, the rest of the world does not have the same ivory tower infection of the intelectual MSM elitists.

You are right in one regard, homosexuals are irrelevant to the world.

I have lived in nine different countries. What you say is simply not true. I know this. It doesn't matter what you say or what you think. There are many, many people out there who are not homosexuals and who have no problems with them at all. As far as nations go, they differ- therefore, you cannot be correct. South Africa, for example, seemed pretty backwards as far as these things go. Western Europe (to include the UK) are very tolerant on this issue. While in Samoa, I met a gay Samoan and the rest of the villagers where he lived treated him no differently. He had gone off to New Zealand to earn money and came back with a white boyfriend. It wasn't an issue that I saw.

Fair enough, you don't like homosexuals. I don't want to change your mind. I really don't. It's your choice. Your life. BUT... Do not project your own beliefs on everyone else. It is a common psychological phenomenom- projection- you don't have to feel bad about doing it. Everybody does it to some degree. But you have to realise that wanting something to be so does not make it so.

What you say is demonstrably false. Demonstrably. I simply know too many people in too many different places who are not like you say for it to be true.

You are right in one regard, homosexuals are irrelevant to the world.

And so are we all. The world is a big rock spinning round and round. There is no 'group opinion'. I can have no respect for a person that seeks to bolster his position by pointing at others who share his belief. Everybody used to think the world is flat- majority opinion is worthless. When I speak, I speak for me alone- every single time. I don't want to speak for you and you cannot speak for me. You lack the vocabulary.

Don't include me in your 'world'. I want no part of it. Because your world is very very small and very very boring. The world I live in is very big and there are a lot of different things in it and that's just the way I like it. Homogeneity of opinion would be a form of hell.

Homosexuals are irrelevent in your world. But then... You are irrelevent in mine.
