  • This fundamentalist, "faith-based" bigotry is low-empathy and morally disgusting.

  • This video is an example of how the Republican Party started moving away from freedom. Ron Paul was the only sensible and honest person in that panel. Historians will look back on videos like this and go "Yep. That's why the Republican Party fell apart."

  • @Jamieishere1 Since your last response was four months ago, I guess you came to the same conclusion.

  • @Jamieishere1 It's obvious by now that you're fighting a losing battle with this bozo. You can not have a rational argument with someone who refuses to argue rationally. Can't be done, and I've tried it several times. Now while it can be fun to argue with fucktards, it is ultimately a waste of time.

  • Agenda?

    Taking over the world?

    All they want is the right to be safe

    walking down the street in their home town,

    the right to marry the person they choose.

    They want the same rights you have.

    That's not "taking over" anything.

  • It is an agenda. If you supports gays, you also support pedophiles.

  • @dukeljk What a seriously ignorant, hateful comment.

  • OMG shut up ... will people ever realize that not everyone is a Christian?

  • @Imaginefree69 Someone flagged this comment as spam. Why? Seriously, are you that homophobic that this argument scares you? Is there some logic in the argument that you can't refute any other way than by false flagging? You think that's going to silence the gay rights movement? Think again. Homosexuals, and those who support them, will not be silenced.

  • @atimnie I'm used to it.

    Censorship is the classic tool of liars and tyrants.

    We're still here, though,

    still speaking the truth.

  • Can someone explain to me why so many Christians focus more on homosexuality than on greed, hate, racism, sexism, disregard for the poor, and violence? Can anyone explain this please?

  • "explain this please?"

    That's easy.

    It's called 'hypocrisy.'

    And THAT is the sin Jesus was harshest about.

  • @mfentruck Possibly because its direct relation to the lowest level of morality that mankind reaches just before his demise.

  • Comment removed

  • @mastersduhgree

    POE??

  • @mfentruck UM...edgar allen?...or did i mean POPE?...i duuno...sorry.

  • wow, I can't believe how full of shit these candidates are...

  • HAHAHAHAHA I burst out laughing when I heard the debating question.

  • Divorce has no relation to homosexuality at all lol and "the kind of role models that kids need in order to become the replacements for those of us who are parents now" is another unjustified statement. It suggests people can be converted to homosexuality lol... if that was the case then the number of homosexuals would be rapidly increasing all the time due to their prevelance in the media etc (and the gay population is not changing according to scientific studys).

  • "transexual school teachers" he provides no justification for why transexuals would make inferior teachers.

    "cant open the floodgates to polygamy and bestiality..." Those are no more to do with homosexuality than heterosexuality. Bestiality is not consensual, which is why it is wrong. Polygamy is not wrong if everybody involved is consensual, they harm nobody, it is their choice.

    There is no "agenda" except to promote tolerance of homosexuality i.e. to stop discrimination.

  • "its a matter of moral principal that we do not accept homosexual activity"

    What moral principal? Murder, rape, theft.. all wrong because they harm people. Homosexuality does not. As usual, morality is left undefined.

    The second dont ask dont tell policy was more unsubstantiated spiel about how it is the right policy (with no justification of why it is the right one given)

    "we dont have to sanction it" no you simply have to let homos have the same rights as heteros.

  • @Jamieishere1 But what about the visual influence these horrible acting people have on children.Did Christ say something about doing something to change thier faith in Jesus ?Wont it be terrible for those that allow this influence to take place?Wont it be terible for those men who allow this satanic behaviour to occur in front of children? Jamieshere1....Thier behaviour is so horrible isnt it?And to allow it to happen in front of children. Oh my GOSH Jamie.

  • What behaviour are you refering to? A man with his arm around another man? Two people expressing their love...?

    You have not justified that these people are "horrible acting", you have only stated it.

    You have not justified the statement tha any "statnic behaviour" will occur, or defined "satanic". You have not provided any evidence of any kind that homosexual affection in any way has a negative effect on children. Where is your evidence for this claim?

  • What Christ or any other religion said is irrelevant in a rational debate, why? Because all religions are unjustified (that is why you have to have "faith"). For this reason, they cannot justifiably be used in a rational debate.

    Homosexual behaviour is no more horrible than heterosexual behaviour and no different from it except for the genders involved. Gays feel love and lust, just like heterosexuals, incase you were unaware.

  • @Jamieishere1 Only your disbelief causes your unacceptance of faith based answers.All religions but 1 are unjustified as they are not based on truth.Let me ask you this ok?...its important so think carefully on it; ,,,,,,,"Do you know what love is"? I know that sound simple BUT....most people dont know what love is. (hint) you do not "feel" love. You experience the effect of it. WHAT IS LOVE jamie?

  • No it is not only my disbelief. In order to rationally justify something, you have to do so from a rationally justified basis (proven with evidence and/or logic). Religious teachings are not justified with any kind of evidence and so do not apply in a rational debate. I could create a religion right not that teaches that homosexuality is the only type of relationship God recognises - that would not make homosexuality valid though as I would have no evidence, just as is the case with

  • @Jamieishere1 If you know where to look...Theres more evidence of the existance of GOD than thier is of you or me. Yes...you could create a religion but most likely it would fade away when you die...simply becaue thier is no spirit to proliferate its continuance.Ever ask why faith in YAHWEH has laster 6000 years?...ask seriously and GOD will reveal an answer to you.

  • There is no evidence, otherwhise it would be scientifically documented. Irrational superstition and speculation is not evidence.

    The idea of a spirit proliferating its continouance assumes there is one to do so in the case of your religion (which is not more justified than me assuming the same about my religion).

    One or a few religions will always predominate, that is not evidence of their existence. People's blind belief in something does not make it so.

  • Faith in Yahwe has lasted so long because religion (and culture) follows the same rules as darwinian evolution. The best suited to its environment will survive. Faith has lasted a long time because the bible is well suited to its environment (the psychology of men). It has even changed with the times (the new testament) to make it more acceptable to the other aspects of culture that changed throught history I expect.

  • nd you woulodnt know this because you arent looking.

  • If it was possible to find empirical rational evidence of Yahwe then it would already be carefully scientifically documented, as people have had 6000 or so years to do so.

    As I have almost certainly mentioned, spiritual mysticism has no place in a rational debate. It is not rationally justified and so cannot be used as justification of anything.

  • @Jamieishere1 Actually it is scientifically documented.You just arent looking for it.

  • God's existence as depicted in the bible is scientifically documented...?

    What form of testing have they used to identify God? He is an entity beyond our level of existence or something like that supposedly isnt he, so how would they have identified him?

  • @Jamieishere1 You cant see the wind,,,can you? But you see the affects of the wind...dont you?

  • Yes and then science explains, using rational arguments and other empirically gained knowledge what the wind actually is and what causes it.

    With religion however, baseless speculation is made about everything (and then treated as if it is fact). The speculation is moulded in to whatever shape it needs to be to roughly explain the (currently) scientifically unexplainable.

    When science comes through e.g. evolution, the speculation is simply re-moulded again, as if it were always correct.

  • @Jamieishere1 Evolution.Now that is the worst theology you could base an argument from.Evolution has absolutely no single agreement ,scientifiacly, to start a begining from.You havent any knowledge of a particular religion, i would speculate,to make scientific speculation from.You should go else where and dismiss what you know about your theories.

  • Evolution isnt about a beginning from... that would be abiogenesis I believe. As I have probably already pointed out, the fact that science can not explain ever little facet of the universe in no way validifies religion.

  • Religion is validated through the over whelming succes and flourishing of the society that that chooses the creator of the universe as its god.

  • Lol not at all... China has no religion/God but is doing better than the majority of countries in the world. It is a developed nation... unlike many undeveloped and empoverished christian nations.

    Your already flawd argument also has the premis that "the flourishing of societys that have chosen God is due to choosing that God". Which is an unjustified premis. So your argument is flawd on multiple levels.

  • Um heh.....china is an industrialized nation.This doesnt particularly mean it is 'developed'.The premesis is that the christian nations are flourishing and IT IS TRUE. Great brittain,Australia,France,Ital­y,Germany,Canada,Israel,USA,ec­t. Your premis that catholic nations are christian is flawed.You dont really know what Christian means.You understand rudementary principlals like a lot of the secular world but,you dont perceive true biblical theology.

  • I dont see what part of an economic recession indicates fluorishing. You still have not justified your assumption that any beneficial effects in religious countries are the result of that religion. Religion is prevelant throught the world really. Africa is largely christian as far as I remember... but theyre not doing so wonderfully.

    I dont understand much of "true biblical theology" because I dont regard it to be worthwhile. Seems like you dont know much either though.

  • @mastersduhgree Israel is a CHRISTIAN nation? Sorry, you lose the argument right there.

  • @atimnie Ok now...think it through before you spit on yourself.

  • @mastersduhgree There's nothing to think through, moron, Israel is the Jewish homeland. Where do you even get the idea that it's a christian state?

  • @atimnie .Theres as many chrisitans there as jews ...and chrsitian jews as well.

  • @mastersduhgree According to answers(.)com...

    How many people live in Israel?

    Israel's population, as of 2009, is 7.4 million 76.% Jewish 16% Muslim 2.5% Arab Christians\Christians 1.5% Druze 4% other.

    In case you missed it, that's 2.5% Christian. Now tell me again how there's just as many Christians as Jews in Israel. I cited my source, where's yours?

  • @atimnie Your source is accurate.I stuck my tongue(er...keyboard) out and stepped on it. Im at your mercy sir.Please forgive me???

  • @atimnie Your mean Oh evil one.

  • @atimnie They arent permanant residence christians.Try to keep up son.

  • @mastersduhgree I believe i was probably calulating thier visitors.I know they are innudated with christians visiting the birth place of Christ.

  • @atimnie Yeah...you can think it through if you have the input from accurate sources son.

  • @mastersduhgree You're actually starting this again? Look, no matter how you twist it, Israel is not a christian nation. And just what are your "accurate sources"?

  • @Jamieishere1 Say that again with I.Q this time. Or have someone with a peceptible amount of intellect translate for you.

  • As I have said anyway, religion has no place in a rational debate as it is not itself rationally justifiable. You dont seem to have any justified arguments against homosexuality.

  • @Jamieishere1 Yeah i do and yes there are

  • What are your rational (non-religious) arguments against homosexuality then? assuming thats what you meant.

  • @Jamieishere1 Destruction of society is the biggest one.Non productive assocciation is up there too.

  • What evidence do you have that homosexuality destroys society? And as it has apparently been around since biblical times, isnt it taking its time to destroy society?

    Non productive meaning reproduction?

    - If the ability to reproduce is an effective measure of a relationships validity then why are infertile people and the elderly allowed to have relationships?

    - Are they or people who take vows of celebacy (such as Catholic Priests) immoral?

    - what about straight who dont have kids?

  • @Jamieishere1 In History societies that have been accepting of it have been destroyed ,,some so completely theres almost no evidence that they,ve even existed.

  • Were these societys by any chance also accepting of heterosexuality ^^?

  • @Jamieishere1 Its probably apparent that there were heterosexuals among them hence thier existance(cant proliferate without heterosexuals)The issue concerning thier destruction is thier acceptance of homosexuality among them.This would be the reason of thier downfall.This is a lesson to all societies as well.

  • What societys have fallen after accepting homosexuality and how has sexuality supposedly been the cause of their downfall?

    The acceptance of homosexuality appears to be no more or less coincidentally related to their downfall than the acceptance of heterosexuality. At least you have not provided evidence to suggest otherwhise yet.

    The persecution of a minority can never be a good thing anyway.

  • God does not validate homosexuality in society ,He condemns it.This it the reason in itself why societies that accept it fall.

  • Lol what societys? Do these same societys accept heterosexuality perhaps?

    Are you aware that no Bible published before 1952 translates 1 Corinthians 6:9 as explicitly condemning homosexuals. Do you know the historical context of the bible and do you know the dead language that it was translated from?

    Do you know what condition the bible was in that they translated the text from? Do you know who translated it? Do you know when they did that?

  • If your going to try and bang me over the head with translation and origins were done here,,,, and for your info; hebrew and aramaic are not dead.

  • Translations and orogins are entirely relevant to the true meaning of the bible...

    Hebrew and aramaic are dead in the form that they were in when the bible was written I believe.

  • @Jamieishere1 Your on your own there buddy.

  • All societies are.

  • - Are heterosexual people motivated by a desire to have kids every time they have sex?

    - Oral sex has no chance of impregnation but is whidely practised:

    According to the second National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles, taken in 2000, more than 75% of men and women had had oral sex in the last year.

    - Masterbation, which is practised by the vast majority of the population (90% of males, 65% of females), also has no chance of procreation.

  • - As people cannot be converted to homosexuality, it is no threat to the world's net reproductive output.

    - Even if it was, that wouldn't be a bad thing since the world is already overpopulated or rapidly getting that way.

    - There are a large number of orphans in need of parents so procreation is not really needed intil they all have parents.

  • christianity and any other religion.

    Love cannot be defined in any clear terms any more than you can describe exactly what a colour looks like without refering to it's name. You can describe symptoms of love and thoughts and feelings associated with it but it is a subjective term that as far as I know has no clear definition.

    There are many different ways to define love, one way might be "total selflessness wrt a certain individual". Thats just one of many.

  • Whether or not you have your own special definition takes nothing away from homosexual love or suggests that it is in any way inferior to heterosexual love. There is no evidence to suggests that they are any different from eachother and therefore no reason to think so other than prejudice. (assuming you were trying to suggest otherwhise).

  • @Jamieishere1 Yes but....most homosexual love is self serving.

  • How would you know about homosexual love and how is it any more self-serving than heterosexual love? What evidence do you have of this conclusion?

  • @Jamieishere1 All love has motive...did you know this?

  • Not really, I havent thought much about or studied it. You could see it as having a inspiring a motive to be with somebody sure. As far as "having motive" in terms of being inspired by some conscious will, I dont think Love is brought about by a conscious act of the mind. I think it occurs due to subconscious observations of a person most likely.

    The nature of love is irrelevant though, unless you are somehow trying to argue that that nature changes between gay and straight couples.

  • @Jamieishere1 Then all along youve missed the point.Gay love is understandable by anyone.But...its self centered love...kinda like the love a dog gives its master.

  • How is gay love different from heterosexual love? Do you claim to be able to peer in to the minds of homosexuals and heterosexuals and see the difference between their forms of love? And how is it that heterosexual love is not self-centred, if homosexual love is ^^?

  • nd you think homo love is different from hetero loce?....Tell me; what is the definition of love(im thinking you dont honestly know what it is)(that may be the problem here)

  • No I think homo and hetero love are exactly the same... well in a sense no two loves are the same ... but generally speaking, there is no real difference between hetero and homo love and I dont see how you could possibly argue otherwhise.

    a strong positive emotion of regard and affection; "his love for his work"; "children need a lot of love"

    any object of warm affection or devotion.

    There are a couple of definitions, as I said, I doubt its nature is relevant.

  • procreation: overpopulation, orphans, infertile couples, old couples, catholic priest vows of celebacy, do straight people aim to conceive every time they have sex?

    "its only that we have been able to resist that attempt [to have gay military personel] that we have the very best military in the world today"

    A totally unsubstantiated claim, conceiled cunningly with a patriotic compliment.

  • "defend the natural family"

    Homosexuality is no threat to that, you are either gay or straight, people dont get converted.

    "the destruction of traditional marriage"

    again homosexuality is no threat to it. Gay people primarily want legal benefits of being couples, nothing to do with religious ceremonys.

    "supported and represented the natural rights of our humanity"

    Like being able to be with the person we love and see them if they are dying in hospital?

  • Wow the hate speech from US officials is appalling. This country must be nuked at once. The USA is the lowest point that mankind has come to.

  • wow i thought people like you were just simply retarded

  • You see this is why i egg and TP the houses of right wing nuts in my neighbor everyday in the summer and on halloween i just got back from doing such

  • DUDE better chance of a threesome

  • well at least your consistent

  • and how disgusted are you with hot bisexual chicks

  • Oh this is hilarious. I actually thought this was satire.....

  • You never said you were speaking for God, but the individuals in this video whom you so wholeheartedly agree with do by invoking His name at every opportunity, they imply that they understand His will and that they are speaking on His behalf. Furthermore, the repetitive "slippery slope" argument is complete bogus, allowing gay marriage will not change how society functions, because it will not change how parents raise their children. The demonizing of homosexuals needs to end

  • You didn't, I was referring to the individuals in this video whom you so wholeheartedly agree with. By evoking His name at every turn, they are implying that they are speaking on His behalf, and that they understand His will. I may have made an error in rhetoric by using "you" rather then a more ambiguous pronoun, but the truth is that homosexuals have been demonized to the point that they are on par with satanists and serial killers, which in my opinion is a vile distortion of reality.

  • What do you mean by a "made up" word?

    Who are you speaking" for when you say "We"?

    You mean you are disgusted. Let other people speak for them selves.

    You comments are offer evidence that you are nothing more than a Homophobe who hates people whose views are different than yours.

    I bet there are a number of people who find you disgusting!

  • I'm disgusted by people who try to speak for God, but I don't accuse them of having an agenda to destroy my way of life. Like Dr Paul said, a group can't force themselves on any other group. Your interpretation of the Bible may tell you homosexuality is wrong, but your religious belief does not give you the right to legislatively restrict the rights of hardworking homosexual Americans. They're not asking to get married in YOUR church, they're asking for the right to have a state recognized union

  • There isn't a cabinet post known as Secretary of Homophobia!

  • Except for Ron Paul you have a group of Homophobic Ass Holes !!!

  • I agree with all of them. We need to win this country back!!!! It is a sad day we are living in and I am afraid for this country's future. Can't wait til Jesus comes back and puts and end to all the evil and misery we have to deal with.

  • Win this country back from what??????

  • Great question.

    With the exception of Ron Paul we have a panel who proves Ignorance, Bigotry and homophobia breeds hatred and contempt for others.

  • Its hard to believe that we just elected the first black leader of the free world, and yet there are segments of our society still focused on the things that make us different from one another. Rather then focus on that, focus on what unites us, our humanity, our fragility, and our rationality. It is the people who are trying to win this country back from someone or something that are making country worse off.

    Down with the hate mongers

  • Unfortunately there are some people who can't accept people whose views are different than theirs.

    They claim to be christians yet they fail to understand that Jesus loves and accepts everybody regardless of their race, religion (or lack thereof) and sexual orientation.

    I was raised Roman Catholic and Jesus never preached Bigotry or Homophobia.

    Too bad some of his so called followers refuse to follow his example. For them hatred and intolerance is acceptable in some cases.

  • Comment removed

  • Wow, would Jesus say something like that?

  • Comment removed

  • I'd like to say that your bizarre, twisted sense of right, wrong, and morality disgusts and angers me, but it just makes me feel bad for you

  • Comment removed

  • The act of homosexual sex (which, despite your repugnant claims, I have never nor ever will participate in) has nothing to do with the argument, and you know it. Furthermore, your juvenile and pretentious remarks do nothing but harm the legitimacy of your "cause". You may be for Jesus, but I highly doubt he is for people like you (though I'm sure he still loves you as one of God's children)

  • Comment removed

  • I want you to take a moment and reread what you just wrote.

    I assume that you are not a homosexual, and therefore, by your logic, you should have no concerns about your own "cause" nor about what homosexuals do with their lives

    And you're welcome, friend

  • Comment removed

  • Alright alright fair enough. One last question though. Have you ever eaten bacon, or ham, or lobster?

  • Sorry for taking so long to reply, I have a life.

    When Jesus came he said to pray over your food and you can eat anything and nothing will harm you. thank you

  • Well, I'm familiar with this belief, but what most people fail to understand is that the same principle that is used to justify ignoring the laws forbidding consumption of certain meats (i.e. pork and shellfish) can be used to counter all the laws laid out in Leviticus, as Christ continully intercedes on behalf of his people from is seat at God's right hand, removing the burden of obeying Levitical law

  • When I used the term "belief" I intended it in the sense of religious belief (for example our mutual belief in God, or a belief in Papal infallibility). And I do understand the purpose of Leviticus (I have several friends who are Jewish who helped in my knowledge of this), but nearly every intrepertation of Leviticus I've heard (in relation to the New Testament) should logically wipe out all the laws in Leviticus, rather then just a select few. However most Christians do not accept this view

  • I told you that I was tired of you but anyway what is your issue? Which ones are we following and/or not following?

  • Well Leviticus is the most cited source in the bible for the condemnation of homosexuality. However, Leviticus also condemns the consumption of certain foods (as we've discussed), crop rotation (without which society as we know it could not exist), shaving with a razor (something millions do daily), applying the death penalty to a child who disobeys his/her parents, and parents having the right to sell children into debt bondage.

  • Homosexuality is also referred to in the New Testament as well. Those others you mentioned are, like I said earlier, things they were required to do to atone for sins and keep from sickness but when Jesus came we no longer had to do them; He took on God's wrath for us. Today children can ask for forgiveness for disobedience(instead of being put to death) but it is still a sin to disobey.

  • The references to homosexuality in the New Testament are very debatable, because in many cases they are either implied, our come from a term that could have numerous translations

  • Are u a homo? What is your point? You think it is okay and natural? It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that vagina and penis go together and not penis and penis or vagina and vagina so as to have to event another unnatural way to have sex. It is not even right to masturbate which is what most homos have to do when having sex to get the pleasure they need. Can a man orgasm while being f--k--d in the butt without masturbating Cumming in a mans butt is a waste of the seed God gave him

  • I agree with all of them!!!

  • Practicing homosexual?! Are you a practicing heterosexual?! That terminology is so ridiculous.

    If we are using this terminology, I think I am pretty much a professional homosexual by now.

  • Practicing homosexual is right. It is a "sexual practice". It is forbidden by our Creator and it against nature. Those who practice and are addicted to the practice of homosexuality, are looking down at their genitals and rebelling against their own bodies. Wake up already and stop being an ostrich with his head in the sand already this is 2009 already! GROW UP BY NOW!

  • Exactly it's 2009 and you're still guiding not only yourself but persecuting others based on bronze age mythology. It isn't against nature for the simple reason that it's found *in* nature. Although it should be noted that naturality is no barometer of morality so I don't even know why you bring that up. Non sequitur.

  • My only "gay agenda" is brunch with mimosa's.

    Straight people have damaged marriage on their own.

  • You are correct.

  • haha so much repressed homosexuality they are all liable to explode!

  • Holy cow this is amazing. Alan Keyes is the biggest joke and he doesn't even know it. He's like Carlton Fisk only shorter.

  • Ron Paul just lost my respect. What a sell out. These loonies are beginning to implode. Oh, and did I mention Alan Keyes daughter is a big ole dyke(FACT)?

  • She's pretty cute, too. I'd hit it.

  • Alan Keyes daughter is a big ol dyke(FACT)

  • Why didn't any of them just say to Weyrich "Fuck off, you theocrat. This is America, remember?" Oh right, because they're republicans. :(

  • Alan Keyes is one of my favorite fictional characters.

  • Alan Keyes is a tormented man; filled with internal homophobia; cognitive conflict. His daughter is a lesbian.

  • I'm pretty sure Ron Paul is amazing. He finds just the right balance between denying gays rights, and throwing a particular lifestyle in your face. He is one of the few Republicans with whom I agree on this issue.

  • If you actually think that sexual orientation is on the same level as choosing to shoot heroin (it IS A CHOICE). Then you are an idiot.

  • Then thank god we have control. =P

  • Oh my god... stuff like this makes me glad I'm in Britain. These are all very intelligent people - why have they turned away from science and decided to fuel hate against people that cannot be any other way? They are fuelling the irrational fears currently in our societies to try and gain votes. Those that aren't are simply so ignorant they are incapable of a leadership role. It's sickening.

  • Gretchen uses the scripted "jamming" tactic strategized by Homosexual Agenda manifesto marketers Kirk & Madsens who state that one people are silenced, it is time to get nasty with opposition.

  • Your intelligence level amazes me.

    -James'

  • Many Republican politician are closeted homosexuals and many southern hillbilly Christians are murderers, baby killer, Nazi sypathizers, Klan members and generally stupid lazy welfare recepients - VALUE VOTERS ARES STUPID MOTHER FUCKERS!!!!!!

  • Many Republican politician are closeted homosexuals and many southern hillbilly Christians are murderers, baby killer, Nazi sypathizers, Klan members and generally stupid lazy welfare recepients - VALUE VOTERS ARES STUPID MOTHER FUCKERS!!!!!!

  • The homosexual periodical called Guide published a pro-pedophile editorial in its July, 1995 issue. In referring to pedophiles as "prophets" of sexual freedom, the Guide editorialist wrote: "We must listen to our prophets. Instead of fearing being labeled pedophiles, we must proudly proclaim that sex is good, including children's sexuality. . . .. We must do it for the children's sake."

  • many pedophiles are heterosexual - should we ban straight sex? lol

  • The 'natural family'! It doesn't exist. The Family is a socially conditioned institution. It changes just as political institutions change. You can object to the way marriage changes, of course, but no-one can say that marriage cannot be between a man and man, because that is how marriage might be extended to include this.

  • What is the Gospel?

    To God, all human beings are sinners (Romans 3:23).

    Because of our sins (Romans 1:18-32), God has separated Himself from all the sinners (Isaiah 59:2).

    It is through the mercy of God the father (Romans 3:24) and through the death and resurrection of the Son (Romans 4:25), Jesus, that whoever accepts Jesus as his/her personal Lord and Savior will be reconciled with God (Romans 5:10).

  • I am a firefighter, and have served my nati0on and have one partner and our adopted Daughter, together we are in a civil union in Vermont. This Topic is leaving America ,,trust me,,I am seeing it first hand losing its energy.

  • THis topic is tired in America, we have moved on.

  • I remember a time and a place in this country when Born Again Xians used to talk about Baby Breeders in Satanic Cults and Heavy Metal Music. Seems like all they talk about now is Homos and Abortion. Alan Keyes is Catholic-it amazes me that Born Agains stopped hating Catholics-but still hate Mormons.

  • Alan Keyes says that there were natural heterosexual rights before the government. Does this also mean that we can say that there were unrepresented homosexual rights before the government? I think so.

    Human sexuality, in any form, came before all governments. Keyes is brainwashed by the christian bigotry.

  • Mike Huckabee ........ his record as Arkansas' governor - from ethics complaints.. to tax increases.. to illegal immigration ...and his support for releasing a rapist who was later convicted of killing a Missouri woman. Nice guy...seems to really care about people eh?

  • America...the only country in the western world where that question is taken seriously by one of the major parties.

    what the fuck, america?

  • I was just wondering if you could identify whose particular marriage was destroyed by homosexuals.And if you want to abolish polygamy and pedophilia then your gripe is against certain fundamentalist sects of Mormonism and the Catholic church.

  • as the state has. Why can't families have gay men and women as their heads? Just because gays can't reproduce does not mean that they cannot form families.

  • Ya, you have a point, if we get rid of the family unit I imagine violence and sexual abuse would become a thing of the past! The world would instantly be overcome with peace and good will! Get a clue buddy. And what are they going to "form" their families with? Each other? See how long that generation lasts.

  • As a conservative you should be all for that. Also homosexuality is most likely a trait created through random mutations, so they will alway exist.

  • Being gay is a choice, I'll admit that some people are born with traits that could cause them to be attracted to members of the same sex, but that doesn't make them gay, they become gay when they have gay sex or anything like it. I may be born with a tendency to rob banks, but i am not a bank robber until i rob one. People need to admit that their choices are just that, choices.

  • Does it really matter weather or not it is a choice? The fact is that you have no right to impose your beliefs on someone who disagrees. When the constitution was written it had freedom of religion and that implies freedom from it. What are you trying to protect by attacking gays?

  • By attacking homosexuals? Nothing. By not legalizing same-sexed marriages? A small portion of human decency, of which we seem to be in short supply.

  • Bullshit, denying them a right like that is an act of horrible indecency and intolerance. The fact that you say that not letting them get married is preserving decency is against your own religion, Jesus was about inclusion, loving everyone inspite of race, gender, or sexual preference. But Fundamentalists like you have twisted his words to attack women, blacks, and gays.
