well, according to the notoriously vicious homophobe Fred Phelps (who, I should note, became an outraged homophobe because he realised he couldn't abuse his kids and keep them loving him), it's because God hates them (when according to the current beliefs, God doesn't hate anybody. I think He will make an exception for Fred Phelps though).

Of course, the aforementioned dickhead (who is also a disbarred lawyer) claims he's doing God's work by picketing gay pride stuff and gay people's funerals (there's a counter on his website stating how many days Matthew Shepard has been in hell)--or even stuff only loosely related to gays, such as AIDS-related deaths. If he could be charged, it would be for homophobia, child abuse, abuse of court procedure and what has to be criminal overuse of the number 14

Here is a link to a Wikipedia page about the dickhead. WARNING: Some of the pages linked to contain highly disturbing material.

I don't like homophobes. I have friends who are gay/bi and I've had people try to get me to ditch them just because of their sexual orientation. I've been really close friends with them since like grade 5, so why the hell would I ditch them because they happen to be gay/bi?

As long as people don't talk about their incounters (gay or hetero incounters, it doesn't matter), I don't mind being friends with them. The last thing I want to hear about is graphic details about what someone did in bed last night.

Good for you. But unfortunately, you do not run the city and it is not your job to keep such "dicks" from living there.

No, but he's been around long enough for people to actually realize that what he's doing is far more destructive than any pCm claims homosexuality is. At least, I've never heard of gays beating people with mattocks. If you google search on the NFBSK, you'll find that a LOT of pages are devoted to either a) spreading the truth, or b) mocking him until his followers look like idiots.

And besides, while we all can make tasteless jokes about Catholic priests and recent events, it certainly takes a man like Phelps to make the assumption that all Catholics are gay (or at least that that's the current trend). I'm currently laughing at his assumptions that gay priests and lesbian nuns are "the order of the day for Kansas Catholics" and that gay Jews killed Christ (if it wasn't bad enough that Jews are already being accused of the crime). I'm taking out the holy pin right now...

I dislike Fred Phleps. Not only does he have that counter, I heard he actually proposed a monument be built to count how long Matthew Sheapard's been in Hell. I've checked out his site a couple times...wht a cruel bigot he seems to be. :cry:

kevin-sms: Watch your attitude with the staff and administration of this site. When someone makes a recommendation to you regarding your behavior, and you feel the need to respond to them, then private message them, but do NOT show such disrespect to anyone - mod or otherwise - in the forum like this ever again.

Secondly, try to remain on topic when making a post. It's fine that you like Mariah Carey, but her and her music has little to do with homosexuality, if anything.

Recently, I have been getting annoyed with some friends that call each other gay, and then they say "Oh I'm bi" Which is pretty much not true for either sexuality. -_-;

I mean, find a new word, or why not just say "your an idiot" or some cuss word that makes people feel big? I'm not "offended" or anything, but it gets old after a while. Kids these days :roll: :P

I agree, although I don't like the word gay in any context.

*controls inner rage* Today, this girl in my class was telling all the boys to "Watch your booty." (obviously refering to me.) Then one of the boys looked at me,, pointed to my left and said in a very serious tone, "Go over there." (Funny- he'd known I was homosexual for over two months, and he'd never said anything so offensive. The things idiots do in groups I tell you. :x )She was also touching on her boyfriend and asking me if he was sexy. This girl happens to be partners with me in a school project, and come the due date, she's on her own.

Apparantly, this slipped under my news radar until now, because I haven't heard of it until now: on March 16, in Rhea County, Tennessee, deep in the Bible Belt, in a meeting of the county Commission one of the commisioners proposed, "But what it's pertaining to is these homosexual marriages that's going on across our country. I'd like to make a motion that those kind of people cannot live in Rhea County or abide in Rhea County. If they're caught in Rhea County, living together as such, that they be tried for crimes against nature." There were a few mintues of discussion, then the motion passed unanimously. Needless to say, massive protests transpired, and the resolution was rescinded. Today, gays rallied in a park in the county, which is the same county the Scopes evolution trial occurred.

I'm sometimes amazed at the ignorance of some people. If nature thinks you've committed a crime against it, you'll know it without having to have some self-important bigots in Tennessee tell you. Does two consenting adults engaging in homosexual sex take money out of anyone's pocket? Does it do anyone bodily injury? Then it's none of your smegging business! What part of "inalienable rights" don't they understand?

A friend of mine had a good point: he said that in 20 or 30 years we're going to be talking about anti-gay-marriage laws the way we talk now about Jim Crow laws. This is almost certainly true, but sometimes I'm ashamed to have been born on the same planet and to be living at the same time as some people.

It's sad that there are so many homophobic people in this world. Is love really that frightening?

Some people are really funny, though. My father used to make jokes about gay people. . . . until he found out I had a girlfriend. Then he suddenly had no problem with gay people. -_-; He was like "I never said that!" LOL

And yes, I am truly bisexual - I have had both boyfriends and a girlfriend. So. . . *nod* It really doesn't matter to me what 'bits' a person has; it's about love.

What is so threatening about love? People who use the Bible to justify it just sadden me so much. Didn't Jesus want us all to love and accept eachother? How the messages get so skewed. . .

Oh- that guy with the "God Hates Fags" website. . . has issues. Serious issues. He's up there with Chick.

What, were they dropped on their little everything-phobic heads as babies or something? Like, from two stories up?
