He's aware, and we're both against that violence. I think what he meant was the word 'homophobic' is really stupid because no one's afraid of LGBT people. They're hateful towards them, but not afraid.

I've heard it said on numerous occasions by a number of anti-gay organizations and supporters that they are 'afraid gays will ruin the sanctity of marriage." and/or are "afraid that their child will turn out gay if exposed to gays." so I actually do think most are afraid of the gays and their totally normal lives.

Also, gay marriage has been legal for some time now…I have heard zero news about how the idea of marriage has been destroyed or ruined. People are celebrating and spreading joy and happiness. Gay couples can adopt children as a married couple now. There hasn't been a single thing back about this outcome. Other than the violence that gayphobic people have caused.

I'd also like to point out that they say nothing, nothing about gay/bisexual women. So technically. I'm not sinning. :P

Loving that technicality.

Am I wrong though?

Okay. Dudes. I have explained the whole gay and shellfish etc. argument too many times in the past to feel up to typing it now. Here is a video that explains better than I might.

Guys. If you want an explanation please watch this. (It's also from a religious comedy group so…)

Well obviously I think you are morally wrong. But that will never stop me from loving a lawyeresqe (jeez that word) joke.

@The-N-U-T-Cracker

I'm fully aware that my opinion could be wrong, but unless God Himself comes and tells me, I'm sticking with it.

Lmao ignorant much

In any other topic, I wouldn't feel the same way, but considering the fact that only God knows what He meant and the wrong opinion here could send me to hell, I'm sticking to my current belief, the one that's been passed down for centuries. I know I could have the wrong opinion, which is why I'm not very strict with it and don't try to force it down the throats of others.

"an insinuation or allegation about someone that is likely to insult them or damage their reputation."

Hmm. Sounds like a slur to me.

Your wording insinuates this is the definition of homophobe. It’s not, it’s the definition of slur. Don’t do that

And that’s not why people call homophobic people homophobes

@The-N-U-T-Cracker

Hey, Dom! I'm curious about how homophobe has ever, in the history of the word, been used to oppress someone!

I'm not Dom, but I have seen it being thrown around (like the term "racist") at people in an attempt to damage their reputation or turn others against them.

"'afraid gays will ruin the sanctity of marriage."" Well that is incorrect. The damage was done well before the gays had legal marriage.
"I have heard zero news about how the idea of marriage has been destroyed or ruined." Well you might not be in the right place to hear that. I hear such things on a somewhat regular basis. Only Wednesday I had a conversation involving that from a fellow college student I had never talked to before.

Jesus didn't say anything about being gay, the only time it was mentioned was in Leviticus which was negated by Jesus dying on the cross. So if you say that being gay is a sin, you're saying that Jesus's death accomplished nothing, which is fully inaccurate.

i dont get it

God told Moses a bunch of laws the Isrealites had to follow in order to get into heaven. If they broke any of these laws, they had to sacrafice an animal. When Jesus died on the cross, these laws no longer mattered because Jesus died for our sins. One of these was apparently "man lying with another man". Since Jesus died however, we no longer have to follow them and saying we still do is disrespectful

…
Just because Jesus died for our sins doesn't mean we should continue committing them, that's insane and quite insulting in my opinion. We may not have to sacrifice living creatures in his name anymore but that doesn't mean we can go around murdering three-year-olds with chainsaws and expect God to be like "oh, it's okay, I died and came back to life so, therefore, that's not an evil thing to do anymore. Straight to heaven you go!" without us having to feel truly sorry or do some sort of penance first.

Being gay isn't a sin but go off I guess.
If God didn't want people to be gay, He wouldn't have made them gay. Simple logic.

I can't be morally wrong because your book (This is where I assume your moral is coming from) doesn't say that I am. It only specifies men.

maybe i should go to law school.

Ella you know I love you but dude. That's still not a slur. I'd post a list of actual slurs myself if I didn't despise them with every fiber of my being.

Firstly, Gays don't go to hell.
Secondly, God isn't going to send you to hell for believing that gays deserve to love and live lives of peace and marriage. That's ridiculous.

Kinda have a 16th century view on the whole Hell thing, don't you?

@croccin-champagne

There are like a million other reasons I'd be going to Hell, if I even believed in it all that much, why is being not straight one of them?

Well according to the Catholic, Orthodox and all other churches that can trace their roots back to the original church it is a sin.

  1. How so? How were they ruining marriage before they could get married?
  2. It's not about geographical location. There are no stories about how gay people ruined marriages! If you're talking about a situation where a male in a hetero marriage left his wife for a man, that is not destroying a marriage. The male was always gay and finally have the courage to come out and live the life he actually wanted. (vise versa for my lesbian ladies out there.)
  3. What's the story?

Cool?

Very few people actually call people homophobic for the sake of dmamaging their reputation. They call them homophobic because of their hatred for members of the lgbtq+ community, or thinking that “it’s wrong”

Well it does say so in the Bible. To be fair it also says all liars (and magic users and adulterers)so take it as you will I suppose.

Okay, just… I see your point, but if you change the subject even slightly you'll realize this simple logic is actually quite broken…

"If God didn't want people to hurt, He wouldn't have made them feel pain"
"If God didn't want people to be pedophiles, He wouldn't have made them pedophiles"
"If God didn't want people to be angry or jealous, He wouldn't have made them angry/jealous"
"If God didn't want people to hate, He wouldn't have made them hateful"
"If God didn't want people to disobey His laws, He wouldn't have given them free will"

I know what you're going for, but that's not the greatest logic
