I feel that the REAL hypocrites are the Jews, Christians, and Muslims who put on this facade that homosexuality is fine and dandy. Take one look at the book you're supposed to be following, and it wil tell you very clearly what to think about the subject of homosexuality.

These articles make me angry. As a Christian, it is disgusting to see fellow Christians speak so hatefully and calling their cause "pro-family" as if homosexuality were a threat to families.

They just need a copy of "Showgirls" on DVD, a double dong and a bottle or two of cheap vodka.

WRONG FORUM!!

I'm really really hoping that every woman who is associated with that group ends up having a gay kid.

This is so ridiculous.I will never understand why so many conservative,religious people care so much about what other people are doing.Why do they feel the need to "fight" the homosexual agenda? Just live your own freakin' lives and don't worry about who other people are sleeping with!

No way. Do you think that women who are having their period are "unclean?" Check Leviticus. Do you think a man is "unclean" if he so much as touches a woman who is having her period? One of Jesus' main points was to clarify what was really important. The Pharisees were so focused on following the letter of the law that they missed the entire point of loving people, being servants of God, etc.

It's all politics.

I'm tempted to agree with them. The media IS liberal, the Supreme Court always rules in favor of the liberals...our culture is dominated my liberal thought. As much as I HATE Fox News...every other news station presented the news in a liberal way, and from the moment most of us were born, the only news we heard was from a liberal viewpoint.

That in mind, I think conservatives are fighting an uphill battle. I'm not as far right-wing as some people think, however most of my opinions tend to go right more than left. Yet I despise both Republicans and Democrats.

I don't see the point of starting this thread. You believe homosexuals have the right to do what they want, but you whine and complain when a religious person writes an article against homosexuality? Why does this surprise you?

When you seek to stifle speech such as that found on this website, you threaten to stifle your own.

Yet because most Prince fans are about as left wing as you can get, your thread will ultimately be very popular with the orgers, and I expect that.

well Nep2nes SECOND comeback is going to turn out to be a very shortlived affair, indeed!

They reference the "Exodus" program in which gay people can be converted to heterosexuals through therapy and prayer.

This group had a video in which the pioneering founder explained how he had been awakened to the truth and found that he was able to change his sexuality.

Years later, he came back out of the closet. I met this man personally and asked him about it. He told me that the only thing he ever changed was his behavior and that his sexuality remained unchanged during the whole process. He explained to me that he was so riddled with guilt, all heaped on him by the church, that he felt he had to go the route of therapy and prayer to fix himself. He admitted that he no longer felt that he needed to be fixed and he left the group.

What's amazing about this kind of propaganda is how they paint us as defiling the family, having no values, disrespecting life. All of it totally and completely untrue. They are so frenzied about this kind of stuff that they imagine there is a whole agenda they need to fight. There is no such thing as a "gay" agenda, the agenda is human. The agenda is to live as equals without persecution.

As a former Catholic - where guilt trppin' is a way of life - I suspect that at least half of the priests and brothers I came into contact with were repressed gay men. Many, I'm sure, felt that the priesthood was their only choice.

This was the option that was presented to me when I came out to my pastor and his wife. Forcing people into a corner in which they have to live a life that's not right for them undoubdetdly led to the Catholic sex abuse scandal. You have these men who have never engaged in healthy, consentual adult sexual relations and they turn to the only outlet they have. It's certainly no excuse but you would hope the church would realize that shaming people into living a lie only creates more problems.

Would a believer rather us live our lives in the way we deem fit or live a lie and marry their daughters, have kids and ruin everyone's life when the innevitable happens and the man cheat on his wife or leave his family? They prefer the lie...it makes them feel better.
