El Sitherino Posted April 22, 2005 Posted April 22, 2005 What makes me even more curious is the bisexual remark. What if the bisexual is a male, and is married to a female. Or perhaps the other way around. How does this make it different from a heterosexual enviroment? Unless told, people most likely wouldn't even know the man/woman was a bisexual.

If this law passes then they'll go for taking away other rights. Maybe next they'll say that gays and bis shouldn't be allowed to use public restrooms unless there's separate rooms clearly labeled "FAGS" and "LESBOS" or something equally degrading. The possibilities are endless with these kinds of homophobes.

What you just said is pretty much the exact argument those homophobes use- they can't legalise gay marriage because what else would they want next?
The Hidden One Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 This law shoudn't be passed because homosexuality is wrong and it's wierd how kids would say "This is my daddy 1 and this my daddy 2!"

"...This law shouldn't be passed because homosexuality is wrong..." A typo, I assume. Anyway, I have no clue how anyone could say homosexuality is wrong. Did you ever think about what it would be like to be gay and how much bigotry and discrimination you'd face because of homophobes and conservative nutters? And don't give me this "gay people choose to be gay" BS because there are gay ANIMALS for god's sake. You can't get any more natural than nature. You may consider it "weird" to have two dads or two moms, but I consider it sad to have no parents at all. Quote Originally posted by The Hidden One Bash the homos! It's the American Way!

El Sitherino Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 I say we ban fat people from public. If you're over 300 pounds. Stay inside. After all I think it's kinda disgusting.

If things that were banned or made illegal becase they were "wierd...." well, the call those tyranny's and police states.
Spider AL Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 Quote because homosexuality is wrong There would appear to be no logical reasoning behind the blanket statement "homosexuality is wrong". Homosexuality is not "wrong", any more than humping a sports bag is "wrong". But that doesn't mean you can't dislike homosexual practices. You may find them objectionable, dirty, whatever. It's your right to dislike any perverted sexual activity. It's OKAY to dislike it. But it's not okay to hate the PEOPLE practicing it. Anyone who actively discriminates against people on the basis of their sexual preferences is an absolute ape, purely and simply. ON THE OTHER HAND, Neither is homosexuality right. It is a common character flaw of liberals and reverse-discriminators that they seek to GLORIFY that which they are defending. It isn't a great thing to go around shagging items that you weren't designed to shag, be they animate or inanimate, members of your own gender, or apple pies. It shouldn't be glorified. It simply isn't that important, nor that worthy of praise. Once again, I'm tired of listening to both bible-bashers and homosexual activists ranting on about how great they are and how everything they do is beautiful. I wish they'd all go and jump in a lake.
ShadowTemplar Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 Quote AUSTIN, Texas - Texas could become the only state to bar gays from becoming foster parents under legislation passed Wednesday by the House. Impossible to enforce without resorting to police state methods. Quote Originally posted by InsaneSith ^ As Lewis Black would say, "I'd like to find the drug that can make someone so delusional and ignorant" I think I've found it. It's called 'religion'. Oh, and Skin: Your bible quotes suffer from one critical failure: They don't pass the Triviality Test.
Spider AL Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 Quote Impossible to enforce without resorting to police state methods.America's already got those. Seriously though, from what I've heard of Texas, it's certainly weighted towards the police-state model by a lot of standards. Quote I think I've found it. It's called 'religion'.How much is it by the ounce?

Breton Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 Not much reason for me to post in this thread, since everyone agrees, but... There is absolutly no connection between what gender you shag and whether or not you're a loving parent. I wish the Texan goverment would look half a metre outside of their grown-in prejuices and start to care about what's best for the children and the society. There is a huge shortage on foster parents, and to deny homosexuals the right to be evaluated as a foster parent is like shooting yourself in the foot. There aren't many people I hate, but I do hate those damn "neo-cons" who rant on about "OMG gays are spawn of Satan oh no!!"
Spider AL Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 Quote There aren't many people I hate, but I do hate those damn "neo-cons" who rant on about "OMG gays are spawn of Satan oh no!!"Good. I hope you realise however that there are equally undesirable elements within the homosexual community, people who also have fanatical, self-glorifying viewpoints that do not allow for any debate or even reasonable questioning.

I think it's a known fact that all sides have their evils. Some are just more pronounced than others. In this case, the neo-cons.

toms Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 Indeed there are. It is of course also human nature when involved in an argument to bring up more and more extreme views in support of your argument. Which is how so many minor disagreements end up as fights, wars or (even worse) flame wars. Though i do naturally have more sympathy towards the underdog minority fighting to be allowed to do stuff (even if they do sometimes take things to far) than the mass majority fighting to stop others. Maybe its cos i'm british and we always support the underdog . Sometimes you wonder if the human race has moved on at all...
