Your thoughts on Homosexuality?

What I meant is that it isn't right to steal from people, when it's not yours.
The whole Pediphile and Zoophile thing.. One of the two cannot say they want to be together. So that's why it's not good to have relations with an animal or a child.
The child is too young and the animal can't consent.

Agreed, and I added two words. The child is too young to consent, and an animal obviously can't consent. Under our legal system, and of most countries, the legal age of consent is generally around 16 give a little (not take 😀)
Two gay men or women can legally consent to be in a sexual relationship with one another, and that's what this comes down to. That's why the whole cat and child argument goes out the window here. Just wake up and smell the coffee, and realize that the only thing making you not want to support gay rights is that you think that they are less of a human than you are.

Actually I think it's both, you see... Most people are born with the genetics of being attracted to the same gender, however I think it's also possible that some people were straight but something happened to them and it made them attracted to the same gender instead.
You see, I heard about this guy. He was tortured by women when he was younger, so when he matured. He was homosexual, however he thinks he may not be a homosexual at all. He thinks that him being tortured by women when he was younger made him crave for the same gender since he became afraid of women.
I've also heard that some men can become homosexual if they didn't have a father or if their father didn't really pay attention to them, they start to look for attention from the same gender. In order to fill the gap between the father they never had, now I am not fully sure about this one. But it would kind of make sense, but I heard it on the show Law & Order SVU...

Your basing these ludicrous statements off of Law and Order SVU and of something you "heard"?

You just contradicted yourself.
My views on homosexuality are that they are all free to do what they want - every human is. So long as it's not breaking the law, or impeding another person's life. Homosexuals are people I fully embrace.

I am completely against gay and lesbian couples, for more then 1 reason, But lets look at it this way humans were designed for 1 male and 1 female, not 2 of the same kind.

How do you know that? Who says humans were designed that way? Where are you getting this information from? The bible?Loopy Legend said:

No problems with gay couples. I have a gay friend who likes to hit on me all the time, which I ignore those parts. They're human, just like the rest of us. Only with different interests.
That being said, I believe those who discriminate against them entirely are a little single minded.

Bit of a silly argument, really, isn't it? If a person is born in a particular way why should we condemn them? Sexuality is not a choice. Disliking/disrespecting someone because of something that they don't have any power over is very cruel (racism come to mind here, or sexism perhaps?)Loopy Legend said:
Yes, you make the point it is a mistake in genetics. Sex, of course, only works with male and female sexual organs. And theoretically, humans should really always be heterosexual, that is how it should be. But if we look at nature, many animals experience similar mistakes - homosexuality is noted very often in animals.

I'm against it. I share the same reasons as Loony. Although I'm against it, I don't mind them. As long as it's not around me, I say let them be.
I'd like to add this idea: we've grown up in a society condemning racism. It is taught from a very young age that everyone, black or white, is equal. Humans, for the most part, have realised that racism is wrong. Now we've accepted racism is wrong, and recent generations have grown up with that mind set.
Homosexuality? Still a controversial issue, isn't it? It's not taught from a young age because parents would probably complain. Why is it so controversial? What makes this any different from racism? It's how we're born. People perhaps only are homophobic because they have grown up without being told that homosexuals are equal, and see them as outcasts.

Loopy Legend and Matthew......you both say you are against it but Mike is gay. You both get on with him really well and I'm 100% positive you would only ever want him to be happy right?
What you are saying is that gays don't deserve to find love, be happy, settle down, maybe marry and adopt kids? The only way a gay or lesbian person can be completely happy is if they do that with a person of their own sex. I'm not saying that they can not find happiness in other avenues too but finding a partner to share your life with is high on that list.
I'm not a religious person personally but it really winds me up when religious people say something is wrong because someone once said so in a book that was written years ago, things have changed, society has changed the world has changed. As with racism, a persons views usually stem from their parents beliefs, as too from their parents...it's sometimes difficult to break the thought patterns you've grown up hearing all your life.
I believe in "love and let live" as far as gay and lesbian relationships are concerned.
(sorry to use you as the example there Mike 🙂)

The bible never actually directly condemns homosexuality.
