There is no reputable, serious research showing people commit suicide because a particular religion refuses to embrace homosexuality. None.
Legislators in California have discovered yet another way to make it clear that mainstream religions holding to the sexual teachings of their sacred texts have no business doing so in the Golden State. Why? Because these faiths, which billions of good people worldwide happily hold, do not embrace homosexuality. This includes the three largest: Christianity, Islam, and Judaism.
In a resolution that recently passed the state assembly, “the Legislature calls upon all Californians to embrace the individual and social benefits of family and community acceptance” of LGBT people. It singles out especially faith-motivated individuals and organizations.
These legislators make a very ugly accusation against such people. California lawmakers are planning to spread the idea, with the power and moral authority of the state, that such religious beliefs actually kill people, including children. The text of this bill boldly states:
WHEREAS, The stigma associated with being LGBT often created by groups in society, including therapists and religious groups, has caused disproportionately high rates of suicide, attempted suicide, depression, rejection, and isolation amongst LGBT and questioning individuals…
Note the absoluteness of their conclusions, particularly two words: create and cause. Stigma, created by religious groups, causes high rates of suicide.

The most obvious reason is that most LGBT people are mentally unstable and those are the ones that have a serious problem with handling adversity and result to suicide as an option to control their outcome. I’ve read that most LGBT people have mental issues and any drug, adversity, or negative situation will end up in a negative way.
He/she/it (it’s CA, after all) is a dumb*ss.
Nothing more need be said.
Couldn’t possibly be the result of their mental illness.
Oh, well then, I’m sooooo sorry that I gave myself to Jesus Christ last year and then recommitted myself to him before my endoscopy yesterday.
NOT!
According to the doctrines of the left, none of their favorite victim groups are responsible for their own behavior, it is the fault of people who disagree with them.
That’s the left’s platform; no personal responsibility. Not for becoming pregnant, being broke, becoming addicted to drugs, etc. ad nausium.
I don’t suppose the California legislators would consider showing their solidarity with the LGBTQXYZers by walking to the top of the highest building in Sacramento and jumping off. Who knows, it might even shame or at least shock some of the people they are blaming for mentally ill people offing themselves.
****WHEREAS, The stigma associated with being LGBT often created by groups in society,***
I’ve found those who despise the fags most are common hard working non-religious people.
Truck drives really hate them as they infest so many truck stops and interstate rest areas. It has gotten so bad that some states no longer have many rest areas.
MY behavior is YOUR fault!
Then again, maybe it is perversion and perverts who are to blame.
LGBTBBQ cause global warming....
Mentally disturbed people are mentally disturbed.
Normal people cannot celebrate their particular perversity enough to make them well adjusted.
P4L
California legislators are as sick as their cohorts in the LGBT community. The homosexuals know their lifestyle is an aberration. They know theirs is an uphill battle to promote their mentally, and physically unhealthy lifestyle.
We as a society did not lure them into the lifestyle they cherish, but we do have our hand extended to help them turn away from it anytime they are ready to accept the help.
It is their own self evaluation that drives them to suicide.
Nailed it.
Because all the progs have to do is pass a bunch of BS in the form of a bill and presto, they are right and the rest of the world is bigoted hate-speech spouting hicks.
Their proglib Kung Fu is VERY strong.
This is right out of the bill...
.
WHEREAS, The California State Legislature has found that being lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT) (LGBTQ) is not a disease, disorder, illness, deficiency, or shortcoming; and
WHEREAS, Major professional associations of mental and physical health recognize that being LGBT LGBTQ is part of natural variations that occur in sexual orientation and gender identity, and recommend responsive services that foster self-acceptance and skills to cope with social stigma and discrimination; and
WHEREAS, California law recognizes that performing conversion therapy on young persons is ineffective, unethical, and harmful; and
.
On and on...
Not a single citation of fact, reference to a study or any scientific evidence at all.
Nothing.
Progs just spout a load of crap and expect the world to be in awe of their self perception of vastly superior intellect.
.
Gee....conservative Christians in California or gays in California?? We all know which group gets more grief and hate directed towards them.
Funny, when they we being oppressed, their suicide rates were lower. Problem isn’t that they are gay, the problem is that they are gay and liberal.
“Him” with a capital H, not “him.”
I have been saying for quite a few years that “to show that you don’t hate them (or at least you’re not intolerant) of homosexuality you must participate in it to prove that you’re not a hater.”
You must prove that you love the sin.
