Thanks Lady. As you can probably tell, I'm gay and no I don't think there is anything wrong with it. I'm just curious as to what answers the people who do can come up with.

Usually they give some religious reason. If that is the only reason they can come up with, then, by my way of thinking, that is religious discrimination- since I consider myself a very spiritual person and my religious views don't encompass that.

With a few notable exceptions, the feeling on this site is very gay-friendly. So I hope to hear from more of you.

there is a difference, between spirituality and religion, you can be religious and not spiritual, and you can be spiritual and not religious.. i like the 2nd one.. the best personally
and this site is gay friendly, as it should be. I don't see why people respond to... people being gay the way they do... in everyday life.. like, im fine with it, its none of my buisness. I also, will stand up for gay people when someone is.. "putting them down" saying stupid stuff about it... i just argue :P cause to judge that is stupid.

O.k. so gay people are "immoral"? How?

[?wiseman?]

Oberon, Mike has posted his opinion on the subject in a few threads. I think he has the board and your post's best interest in mind. He's voiced his opinion and held some very enlightening "discussions" with others on the board.

Many of us on the board don't believe that being gay makes you a bad person any more than being straight makes you a good person.

LOL Mike, go easy on yourself man. Anyone is entitled to agree to disagree. Now go "Save the gay, baby whales for Jesus today!"

Thanks, wiseman. I've read quite a few of mike's post and I'll even admit I had him in mind when I posted this question.


And don't forget to save the dyslexic lesbian and transgender pandas!

Actually, mike, I do care to hear other opinions; that's why I ask the question.

I deliberately chose to exclude religious argument because those can go on ad infinitum. I would like to know if there is any problem beyond the religious.

You mentioned before that some people had morals; implying that gay people don't. *Feel free to expound on that.
