  • U've spoken from the heart

  • Bible: God created a man and a women. To reproduce and for them to like same gender.

  • Can someone explain what had happened fro him to give this speech please?

  • Woooooo!!!:):):)

  • GO TAYLOR !!! -3 :)

  • AMAZING! I swear He's better than most existing presidents and prime ministers today. He didn;t even have a peice of paper to read. Someday when He runs for president I will remember his name and he will DEFINITELY have my vote :]

  • Go him !!!

  • This give me hope.

  • This little dude wants a wiener in his butt so bad. God bless him.

  • I made an account just so I could post a comment. I hope one day this young amazing boy becomes president, he'd sure have my vote! As well as 1,828+.. What an inspiration.

  • @Tougain He is not confused..he is just being who he is just as we straight people act as who we are. Faith has nothing to do with sexual preference. "Fag" is a horrible thing to call someone-especially an innocent 14 year old. This boy WILL succeed in life. You know why? Because he has enough confidence to live his life and express himself as who he is instead of backing down to ignorant opinions. You don't see gay people attacking us for being straight so why attack him for being gay?

  • @jmardoll91 I had a change of heart right there im so ashamed, im sorry, i shouldn't have insulted him like that, God be with him.

  • You. are. FABULOUS.

  • Very good...

  • Graeme you were absolutely great! Hope all the kids that are gay could be as strong and open as you are. You showed not only to be a very smart kid but to have a huge heart! God bless you.

  • W O W! I'd just found a new role model.

  • i want to shake his hand. i'm 14 and i would not have the balls to do that. and if i were gay, especially at THIS age i would not have the balls to say that i was.

  • this young man is inspiring. he seaks with such courage, conviction and strenght, it's admirable. I can be hopeful that humanity is not completely lost because people like him, who are not afraid to stand up for others when they believe people have wronged them, make the world a better place for all.

  • i feel like screaming saying go Graeme

  • Wow. I'm speechless. Wow

  • Its really inspiring to see someone so young standing for what he believes in. 8D This kid is going to go far in life, awesome awesome speech skills.

  • this kid may one day be a future president and I would vote for him

  • Wow... That's... Just... -claps-

  • @Davrainbow ok paula abdul

  • im not gay but really good speach

  • IT IS MINI JIM PARSONS! LOVE HIM.

  • @TazZOMad1995 I'm more like Jim Parsons than him. (Even though I'm not gay.)

    More like Sheldon in TBBT. My personality is exactly like Sheldon's.

  • @flyersphan111 That's awesome!

  • Scripted shit is scripted...

  • welcome to the end of days

  • @AxtoxthexJ Why would this be the end of times? If anything, it's an awakening to our world.

  • @flyersphan111 its near it was near since humans started so dont freak out..

  • @AxtoxthexJ Time won't end until the universe dies.

  • @flyersphan111 you mr are ignorant.. light makes time so without light there wont be time or humans cuz when the big bang happened it created light. we are made by light waves. and the first thing god said was (light) god is greatest.. and time will end someday trust me now go back to defending gays

  • @AxtoxthexJ We're not made by light waves, we're made of star stuff. The Big Bang created all of the matter in our universe. There is absolutely no evidence suggesting that a God created any of it.

  • @flyersphan111 star stuff !?? what an ignorant peace of shit you really are pathetic put go a heads cuz i aint mad at you. its just your corrupted educational system.. you cant tell that nothing exploded then created perfection !!!!! thats law of physics get a fucking brain you homo.you well know that GOD is right. slam

  • @AxtoxthexJ You've obviously never watched Cosmos by Carl Sagan...

    Where did God come from then?

  • @flyersphan111 you can ask him that when your burning in the melting pot..

  • @AxtoxthexJ LOL. Why would a loving God create Hell, or also, why would an all-knowing God create someone that he knows is going to turn on him and he'll send them to Hell? That's malovelent.

  • @flyersphan111 wow ! its like every i comment (what fucking ((dumb)) ignorant peace of shit) you're getting dumber and dumber go and learn something(religion) before arguing about it.. see thats what i mean by a fucked up educational system. so brainwashing.

  • @AxtoxthexJ I used to be religious, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

    But in all seriousness, I was and I seriously believed in all of it. I'm only 15, but I believe that I've seen enough to be able to distinguish fact from fantasy. I was lucky enough to catch myself and see the error of my ways before it was too late.

  • @flyersphan111 low-life alert........

    am Muslim and Islam is not like christianity it wasn't rewrited a 100 times and it logical unlike that filthy misleading fake bible..

  • @AxtoxthexJ They're all fake. None of them make any sense. You only believe the muslim dogma because you were raised with it.

  • @flyersphan111 nope i believe it cuz its a fact and i know you fear it.. HELL

  • @AxtoxthexJ You have no clue what you're talking about. You're ignorant. I pity you. How could I fear something that I don't believe exists?

  • @flyersphan111 hahahaha eternity of suffer is the road your on so enjoy the rest of your low sorry life...and please dont you my comments on me.. FaGGoT

  • @AxtoxthexJ Are you seriously finding joy in the idea of someone suffering for eternity? You're a horrible human being. If you could actually open your eyes and release yourself from the supersticion that you have bound yourself to, maybe you could actually be able to live a meaningful life instead of one that your imaginary friend would approve of.

  • @flyersphan111 you really are easy thats what i meant by i know you fear it.. and its turns out you really fear hell..just cuz am laughing at your pathetic life doesn't mean i enjoy someone being in hell. know go and get a brain faggot

  • @AxtoxthexJ Please watch this video.

    /watch?v=-j8ZMMuu7MU

    You'll understand why you feel this way. The only thing I can tell you is that you're wrong. I fear Hell? Why don't you fear the Hell of Christiantiy? Or why don't you fear the Underworld of Greek Mythology?

    There were thosands of religions followed by people. They believed in theirs as strongly as you did in yours.There were thousands to choose from, but you chose yours.

  • @flyersphan111 yet you bring a incorrect comment you know your right when you study learn get some knowledge then you decide what religion you choose Muslim by choice not blindly fowling any religion and happiness and Tranquility is something you will never get cuz you got that hole in your soul its messing and thats god.. you wont get it if kept watching cartoons.lol

  • @AxtoxthexJ There's no such thing as a "soul." As I can see, you're not the most intelligent person and continuing this conversation would be as productive as arguing with a roll of paper towels.

  • @flyersphan111 dear GOD see how you infidels are allays fucked and in denial look at the comments every time i prove you something you keep escaping the shit.. are you geeks always trying to ignore god wit the stupidsit replacements.. you people are sick minded but thats what i expect from a GAY atheist its like a curse it cant get worst than that and another thing kid souls are real cuz its you and its been proven by weighting and stuff like that dont talk shit about stuff you dont know Faggot

  • @AxtoxthexJ Proving something? The only thing that you have proven throughout this conversation is that you're an absolute idiot. God was invented by man. I'm not gay, but I have several gay friends and support gays. I don't know what made you think that I was gay...

    It's been proven by weightlifting? LOL? WHAT THE FUCK? HAHAHAHA!!!!

  • @flyersphan111 you mad or you just acting really dumb cuz you got nothing else to say ?? and who talked about weightlifting you got gay issues or somethin ?? actual i proved almost everything while you sat there skipping my points and trying to fuck it up.. typical faggot act and OMG i found another ((((REAL)))) video oh how did that happened The Great Debate: The Qur'an and the Bible in the Light of Science ( Q & A Session - 4 of 4 ) am done talking to you ignorant sick gay ass low lifed mind

  • @AxtoxthexJ I'm not gay, but I have several gay friends and support gays. You've proven absolutely nothing. I have clue what you mean. Please give me undeniable proof for the existence of god.

    You said that souls have been proven by weightlifting which made absolutely no sense. I'm starting to feel bad for tearing you apart because I'm starting to get the feeling that you're mentally retarded...

  • @flyersphan111 and watch this (((real))) video "i converted to Islam after watching this" 

  • NobGobbler

  • this. kid. is. amazing. and. inspiring. thats all i have 2 say

  • FUTURE PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!

  • i say he going to be president in 2 years

  • sheldon cooper???

  • Can't we both fly our flags??? I'm a christian and I believe in God creating man and woman. I respect and love people all the same, but I have my own convictions. Am I not allowed to anymore??? I mean, as long as I respect and treat everybody the same, of course.

  • Do you realize a rainbow flag is a bit of a derogatory reference towards gay people? Especially in the context used by the offending student? That offending student was NOT treating gay people like equals at all. Don't get your panties in a bunch.

  • @rednals the offender wasn't trating all equal, but even if he had been he would have been discriminated against for being opposed to homosexual behaviour. Interesting to see that equal rights are soooo one-sided. Give the gay people ALL they want, I don't care. But you can't try to make believe in something I don't believe in...... no matter how loud you scream.

  • perfect lawyer.

  • Can I adopt this little guy?

  • i go to his school!

  • Appropriate shmapropriate...

    I wanna have your children

    Bravo

    thank U

    Salut mon amie!

  • @TheRyan0001 no, he isn't. he is a child that already knows exactly who he is and what he believes. he knows more about the world, and how it should be, than many people do at an age of 14. im sorry you can't see that, and that you wasted your time watching a video you evidently hated before you watched, and wasted even more of your time commenting in an insulting way about this CHILD'S sexuality, and how he stood up for it.

  • HEY! He's gay. But it's OK.

  • did he say he is gay?

  • @AbsolutesMayVary Stfu! He actually is so stop trolling.

  • @bigboy127669

    Well I guess I wasn't. Thanks for clearing that up.

  • I got goosebumps just listening to this.

    I don't believe that homosexuality is the best way to go, but this kid is absolutely telling the truth:

    love the person for what's inside of them, don't hate them because of something they are doing.

    I have gay/bi friends, and I love them the same as I do anyone else ♥

    I seriously, just love this kid. ♥

  • WOW THAT IS AMAZING HE IS MY FAVORITE PERSON EVER

  • 38 people are bullying losers...

  • Who the fuck said homosexuality is not a choice...?

  • @carly12142 Homosexuals are born like that, but of course they can chose whether they repress themselves or not... but I don't think repressing is a good option, though

  • @MidNight91000 But how would you possibly know if someone was born gay?

  • @carly12142 It's been demonstrated, try to look it up later, but yes, in some cases you can see some tendencies, mannerism (though this one depends mostly on the way the child was risen), but it's most obvious when they start to get attracted by other boys/girls. Some of my friends (who are gay) told me that when they were kids they could feel it a bit, but didn't know what it was until they were older. And many of them told me that if they really could choose, they'd be straight, as it

  • @carly12142 would be much easier for them (like one of my friends hasn't told his parents about it, because he knows they wouldn't accept it, and so on) but they didn't chose, they ARE that way, and going against what they truly are would feel really wrong. 

  • This kid is from Michigan !! You literly changed me .

  • this kid is something amazing!

  • THIS KID. This kid needs a medal. AH! I love hiiiimmmmm.

  • wow<3

  • Wow this boy is truely the most amazing 14 year old I have ever met. He stood up for the rights of that teacher & to all the struggling gay youth that are scared to come out due to bullying. To all those extremist comments, I'm catholic and I accept gay people & their rights. You might say that the bible said its "wrong" (though it was written by people...who were against women and other races long ago) but my GOD is a loving God. All you haters can kiss the fattest part of my ass.

  • ...No one is born gay... It's what the child wants to be. You can't force someone on who they are. I am Bisexual and I have to admit it, I tried to be straight... doesn't work like that. Also to all the haters, 2 words, Fuck... Yourself. ;)

  • @ItzJustJohn360

    By trying to be straight, do you mean you tried to only bang the ladies?

  • @AbsolutesMayVary Means I tried to like girls... just doesn't feel right. And I had a girlfriend... broke up though.

  • @ItzJustJohn360

    That sounds like homosexuality, not bisexuality.

  • wow..very inspiring brave young man

  • @TheG55coffia

    You're mentally ill, you stupid creationist! Being attracted to the same sex doesn't equate to the desire of performing an oral-sex on them! Only a SICK Christian mind would come up with such a stupid statement!

  • @Banisag Try not to be so ignorant. Just because someone says something so vulgar against a gay person doesn't mean he is a "stupid creationist" with a "SICK Christian mind"...thanks for generalizing almost 1/3 of the world's population. Don't get me wrong, I hate the stupidity of TheG55coffia's comment also, but I don't immediately equate homophobia and vulgarity with being a Christian...READ A BOOK!

  • @TheG55coffia: That you didn't know about sex at 13 means little (although it may explain a thing or two); basic sex education began in primary school for me, I was probably aged 9 or 10. And I knew I was gay by 11. Was I hungry to "suck [sic] men's penis"? No. It was more innocent than that: I realised I was attracted to boys. The fact that you dive straight towards oral sex upon hearing his acknowledgement simply speaks volumes about your immaturity.

  • @TheG55coffia there was a time in this country were young boys worked in the coal mines. there was a time when young girls were married to older men. for your information teenagers have been doin the nasty for a long time buudy you just missed out ! we are only innocent until we learn to think for ourselves.

  • I am so poud of you! I have a group on legacy connect ages 12-54 for GLBT kids/teens. I started it for Jamey Rodemeyer, who I was in contact with and thought he would be ok :-( I started the group 5 weeks ago, and now we have international members 30 of them. Take a look at our site on my YT page.YOU would be a great asset to "OUR Family" we are 100% troll & free. My 2 admin and I screen eyeryone. No one can get in unless approved. Kindly advise! Jeanne

  • Probably the first and only good thing to come out of that little cornfield. I'm proud of this kid.

  • I don't really understand, after watching a video with Jay saying the kid who walked out didn't say much more than "I don't accept gays", i don't say where bullying comes into this. I'm Gay but my plan is not to change people views, just first to have a view that will stand up in a debate and not to say hateful thing...

    as of graeme taylor, full respect for him to stand up and be open... i just don't (again) understand how it could this far? XD

    Adam xx

  • It doesn't actually matter if it's a choice or they were born as gays. The point is, all of us are humans. All of us do the same thing and eat. The same food but why is it that some people think they're better? So what if you are straight, white, rich, poor, black or Asian? Don't we do the same things? Don't we all share the same water, air and food?

  • @bubblesam1 So basically you are saying why do i have this strong feeling that somebody god gave a penis becomes gay. I tell you god loves both boy or girl as one until they reach maturity age like 14 in this case or 11 for girls. Now this is the moment where you should be helped cuz you don't understand what you are until you are helped by parents or understand it yourself , at this moment some kids dont have that full maturity cuz they were to busy playing and they simply need help.

  • I think most of all you people are making a mistake on thinking that it's a choice. Like "people can be gay if they want" it's not a want. Your born this way it's not a choice.

  • what the hell. am a 30 year old man, and I can't even speak with such eloquence...

  • i know this kid, he goes to my school.

  • @Bleeper415 well i hope ur good 2 him hes a really good kid and is soo amazing

  • @Bleeper415 please say hi to him for me!

    peace

  • Comment removed

  • @Bleeper415

    You don't know him.

  • Hi, is there someone who can write what the boy says, please? I need it for a homework. I am not an English native speaker by the way. Thanks.

  • No, God didn't say a word about being gay except it is your choice to be gay, those are the people who are writing the bibles! When they try and say anything in God's name that being gay is a sinful lifestyle, there is no more a sinful lifestyle then hate, and that's what some people try and justify with their faith, but that's not what faith is, violence and hate against those with differences, faith is hope and kindness that you show to others, should be bestowed upon you!God supports no hate!

  • @NiceDaisy24

    Look, I appreciate that you're religious and not a homophobe. However, you don't get to pick out the parts of the Bible you agree with and completely ignore the parts you have a problem with. If you're going to use rationality, you might as well disregard all of it.

  • 1 Corinthians 6, 9-11 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men[a] 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

  • @savaranola611 Jesus is savior. Only he can bring Judgement.

  • @Brotherx33 I agree, only Christ wil be our judge.

  • @savaranola611 I'm sorry but who's immoral again? those that wrongfully condemn others for sins of equivalence to their own? Or of no sins at all? If I'm not mistaken, and I doubt i am, was it not Jesus himself who said "he who has committed no sin may cast the first stone?" and "take the log out of your eye before removing the sty from your brother's"?

  • @SillyNerdify AMEN....

  • @savaranola611 Love the sinner, hate the sin

  • he speaks like he's been doing this for years. Eloquent and way more mature than those bigots who oppose his views

  • he is great ! Fuck to all bible idiots who fighting again gays !

  • @ExPrEsSiOnHuRtS he's 14....

  • He's clearly a genius, this speech is genius, and he even uses "whom!" Nice job bud.

  • @MEpianist It's a basic law of grammar - it doesn't imply intelligence.

  • this Kid is Awesome, I wish him safety and happiness and along life.....he is our future, we need to protect it.

  • He needs to join speech and debate :)

  • @bittersweetsymfny llllooooolllll. dumbass

  • @bittersweetsymfny I've always wondered, what is so bad about being gay? Just because God said something, you are now unable to do what YOU want? Being gay is not a crime. I'm not saying i'm gay, i'm far from it but i respect those who are gay and believe they have a right to be who they want. Being gay is not a bad thing, it does not harm anyone, and there is no point in putting down others for it. This is our choice. Not God's.

  • @asianz4eva9321 No, God didn't say a word about being gay except it is your choice to be gay, those are the people who are writing the bibles! When they try and say anything in God's name that being gay is a sinful lifestyle, there is no more a sinful lifestyle then hate, and that's what some people try and justify with their faith, but that's not what faith is, violence and hate against those with differences, faith is hope and kindness that you show to others, should be bestowed upon you!

  • @asianz4eva9321

    Your thinking is extremely irrational. If you hold that there is a God, then obviously he would be the source of absolute truth. How would a mortal rationalize against a God? If you don't believe in him, then the statement is pointless. Just throwing that out there.

  • @asianz4eva9321

    The only things I disagree with is the notion of sexuality being a choice and that God said anything...ever.

  • the school has to deploy the legal team to defend themselves, heard that he used KKK, what do you want in the school district, and so inspiring teacher pet

  • dude, this kid is awesome :D

  • Indoctrination starts early these days...

  • @bachmann4president You are right, and this kid has been mislead and deceived. He, like all the rest of us, needs to repent and come to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is not okay to be gay, nor it is okay to be a fornicator / adulterer / pornographer. He was not born that way. Blacks, Asians, Indians, Caucasians are born a specific race. To be "gay" is to make a choice of gravitating towards same sex. This kid needs lots of love, most of all, the Saviour Jesus Christ.

  • @Helivz

    Because you chose to be straight?

  • @bachmann4president

    You can use a computer?

  • Kirk Taylor is my english teacher! GO GRAEME!!! (:

  • Fuck Spirit Day and Tyler Clementi and anyone who supported it in 2010

  • I want 100, 000 scholarship from tonic.com

  • @xx3xxx it was 10,000 dollars

  • This kid is my teachers son!!!!!!!!

  • @bigboy127669

    No, he's not.

  • This boy is such an inspiration. It's heart breaking to hear about what this boy has gone through with a suicide attempt at the mere age of 9. Yet, look at what he has done here! This boy has a purpose in this life, and I know that he is going to do great things in his lifetime.

  • It's so hard for me to hear about things like this. How dare someone dictate how a person should live just because of their sexuality. It's disgusting to hear about how teens harass their peers because of things like this.

  • I admire a child for knowing who he is and being comfortable in his own skin. My niece is 14 and has a girlfriend. When she came out to me this year I was very supportive. I love her for who she is and I am so glad she felt she could come to me and let me know. cause so many ignorant people will make her feel bad for being who she is.

  • i dont have anything personal against anyone. i just know mcdowell was in the wrong for sure. the way he talked to us just cause we dont support gays. i have no problem with gays. i just dont support it. gays should be able to do what they want. as long as its not publicly displayed. but this whole issue was pointlesss and stupid

  • @schangbang69 If this is your mentality, I hope you also think that straight persons shouldn't publicly display their affection either. That means no holding hands, no kissing, no love scenes in movies or TV, no mention of their relationships in public. If that isn't the case, you, my dear, are in the wrong. This mentality is the reason suicide rates for gay teens is so high, why gay students are scared to go to school. Your teacher did an admirable thing, and I'm sorry that you don't see that.

  • @schangbang69 Just a little tid bit for you. If you plan on going to university, college or even the workplace, you may want to consider revising what you say. Homosexuality is a big issue in today's world and a lot of people are sensitive on this issue. Not only are people sensitive, but they are also passionate and even aggressive.

    It's great that you have your own opinions, and feel strongly behind your beliefs. However, there are some thoughts that should be kept to yourself.

  • i just dont get why this kid had to come out and talk. just cause he is gay. he wasnt even there and doesnt know what happend. i was there and mr mcdowell was in the wrong. me and daniel didnt do anything wrong, we just left cause he told the people who do not support gays to get out. what just cause we dont support gays means we dont want to learn? that class sucked anyways. 6th hour economics. they shouldve had me talk too. cause me and daniel didnt do anything wrong. mr mcdowell did

  • why the fuck did they even bring this kid in. i was there in that class when mr mcdowell told me and daniel to get out. hes from hartland. wtf my name is adam schang. i got kicked out too just cause i dont support gays. if anything mr mcdowell should have been fired. not cause he supports gays but. he took a person matter and shoves it on kids who dont have the same views or anything. this graeme taylor kid wasnt even at our school. he doesnt live in howell and hes not even in high school.

  • @schangbang69 Look, it's not about him shoving other his beliefs down other people's throats. It's about being accepting, being civil, and living in today's world. I understand that you felt like you were getting his beliefs crammed down your throat, but that doesn't mean that he sent you out because you didn't want to learn. It just meant that he didn't like the way you were acting, and if a teacher doesn't like a student's behaviour, he has every right to send him out of the class.

  • @schangbang69 I don't support gays either. The teacher was wrong for kicking you out of class. I don't harass, beat up nor torment gays. Jesus wouldn't do it. Gays need to repent and come to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. If this kid dies in his sins, he will go straight to hell. Believe anything else, it is all a trap from Satan. The bible teaches that those who practice homosexuality, fornication, adultery etc. will end up in the burning lake of fire.

  • @Helivz

    The Bible says to kill people who wear pants made of different fibers...

  • @Martinez1887 @AntaresinScorpius History is never on the side of bigots. Get educated and get over yourselves. We've already seen equality on the move and it's only going to keep sweeping across the world. Martin Luther King Jr. himself said "the arc of the moral universe is long but it bends towards justice."

  • Graeme, have u ever known a concept called "meta-sexuality"? What does it mean to be proper if human sexuality went in error from the very beginning?

  • @Martinez1887! You're wasting oxygen you fool! just shut your face and keep your un-educated commments to yourself! IDIOT!
