Hey guys...it's wrong according to your beliefs...it's also wrong to put an entire portion of the population in some bubble based on how it makes you feel...
...but, everyone's entitled to their own opinion...good thing, huh?
not sure I agree with that, normal does has a definition and I dont think how we feel defines it, remember we are all governed by nature, meaning nature determines what is normal and what is not, not us. all acts of sex are done with opposing sexes(X & Y), only the earthworm has no sex or is asexual, the rest of nature uses a male and a female, even plants.
so is same sex normal? I would think not, nature dont accept it, why should humans? wouldnt you think it was odd if you saw two male horses going at it? dogs? pretty funny I would think, and people would shake their heads and say "somthin wrong with those animals"
humans are animals too so we are no exception to the rule.
fact is the "only" reason for opposite sexes(male and female)is so there can be sex, nothing more nothing less.
I hear "gays" or whatever you want to call them say, "its not about sex, I'm gay" "its a lifestyle" "I was born this way" I dont buy it, its all about choices, just like drug addictions, child abuse, rape, murder, overeating, smoking, jaywalking, speeding, etc... choices IMO "gay lifestyles" are no more than a sexual preference, wrong or right.
there has to come a time when people need to question weather or not their choices are normal, proper, or genuinely accepted by society as a whole, then decide weather or not its worth the embarrasement or harrasement. there are people that like to have sex with animals? could someone be born with the desire to have sex with animals? is that normal? will that become the next sexual desire society has to learn to get used to? should children be exposed to this type of behavior? possibly be adopted by a man and a horse?
so when people say they feel opposite sex is wrong or not normal, its not them who are in the bubble, rather its the "gay" that fails to open the doors to the possibility of a normal sexual relationship that lives in a bubble.
My point is that individuals can't state, with absolution, that something is wrong based solely on the way it makes them feel, or the way it clashes with their own moral values...when you do so, you are assuming the role of moral dictator, so to speak. There have been plenty of moral dictators in the world throughout history, and their final demise wasn't quite the Eutopia they'd envisioned...it's as if you've discovered something that you feel compelled to spread around the world, whether we all agree with it or not. You don't have the answers, you only have opinions...
It's perfectly okay to say that you don't agree with homosexuality, that it's offensive, that it makes you angry...but, you can't say it's wrong...you can say you think it's wrong...but I don't think everyone appreciates someone stating for everyone that "it's wrong"...well, I'll just say that I don't appreciate it and not speak for anyone other than myself.
Look at it this way. We can all agree that being an axe murderer is wrong. We can all agree that abusing a child is wrong. Setting fire to someone's home is wrong...on and on...those acts are inflicting harm on someone, and I think that most of society agrees with the fact that those things are not acceptable.
To state that being gay is wrong can only represent your own opinions. Sure, it's agreed with my many...hell, it's agreed with by the masses, but having someone just flat out make the statement that being gay is wrong or is a sin signifies only one thing to me - that's your opinion. You certainly wouldn't be allowed to stand in front of millions and preach to them that it's wrong. When asked why, what would you say? Because I think so? Every bit of evidence you would conjur up would be based on your own religious and moral beliefs; beliefs not held by everyone. It wouldn't work...
Funny thing about this is that most things that we do with our spouses in the privacy of our own homes is illegal...whether we all think it is or not, the law states that certain acts aren't allowed. Would you want me to stand up and state that what you and your spouse do is wrong? Because I think so? Because my religion says so? Because it just makes me feel funny to know about it? It just doesn't work...
It boils down to your own set of morals, your background, your upbringing, your experiences (use2b), and that's all fine and well...unless it's inflicting pain on someone, it's up to them to follow whatever life they choose to lead as long as it's not harming others...
If society allowed opinions to dictate morality, I suppose some states would still embrace slavery because they saw nothing wrong with it...I suppose women wouldn't be able to vote or hold jobs because they're inferior to men...I suppose the KKK would actually have a vote in whether or not non-whites are allowed to live and prosper in this country...think that's all over the top? I don't...if certain people or groups of people sat in judgement over all, like those mentioned above, the world would be a very different place. Opinions cannot judge where the path of society goes. Inflicting pain and misery on others or using people to gain your own greatness isn't allowed and is wrong...putting segments of society in a bubble because you think what they do is wrong is very wrong...
...I'd sure hate to see any of you that feel so strongly against homosexuality ever have to face someone in your own family struggling with it. I have a sibling that did so, and let me tell you that it wasn't easy to cope with, it wasn't easy to work through, it wasn't easy to accept...but, I am not God, nor am I better than this sibling to sit in judgement and say "you're just wrong"...
use2b...your feelings are completely understood and I don't mean to minimalize anything you said. What does come to mind when you told of your experiences is that plenty of us have stories to tell. Some might involve someone of the same sex doing something to us, and some might involve the opposite sex...child abuse is wrong...taking advantage of children is wrong...attacking anyone with intention to do harm is wrong...
