If 5-10% of the population is going to engage in this behavior – even in the face of your clear displeasure- what is the purpose of rubbing this “sin” into their faces?  Are you lacking in sin to the extent that Jesus would expect you to cast the first stone?

first, 5%, 10% the numbers are irrelevant.  second, i have never met or discussed this issue with jesus and therefore have no idea what he might do.  it is not personal.  i could care less what homosexuals, gays, lesbians or whatever they might call themselves, do in the privacy of their own home between consenting adults.  the question is does society gain or lose by embracing/legitimizing a life style that is clearly the result of some form of psychosexual dysfunction?  society is a fine cloth.  the values, traditions and general concepts of moral behavior function as fundamental threads binding society.  as a culture we have become arrogant and self absorbed.  adolescent.  we discard, disparage and trash the culture that has made this nation great.  rather than cherish and protect this cloth we set about to tear threads from it, by taking the seemingly easier path, one absent responsibility or respect for anything that is not of our desire at this moment.  traditional roles, roles as intended by nature, roles of man, woman, the bond/contract of marriage have all served this nation well and yet we will discard these to appease the winds of culture and the protest of the mentally ill.

I think that these fine (I do not jest) words have been spoken by every generation of every culture….  Yet we remain. 




I truly do not belittle your position.  I just think that you are over reacting.

clearly you have a point in that every generation has perceived the one following it to be for want of a better word lacking.  still sooner or later if you keep calling heads you will be right.  this nation is in a cultural abyss.

That is what my grandfather said as well. 

I didn’t agree with him.  I may agree with you- to no matter.  Human kind will remain and prosper, despite adversity and corruption.

Grum-pee - I can't speak for Com-lee, but I in no way over-complicated an issue in order to justify anything. I simply said homosexuality & bisexuality are not mental illnesses. Period.

As for the Chicken Little-ing about the fabric of the nation, blah, blah, blah....I've heard this since I was a kid. Like Peter, it is my take that you (and every generation who has lamented the loss of "our way of life") are over-reacting. Unlike Peter, it is my belief that due to the degradation you see all around you (not in spite of it), we as a nation are better for the vast majority of it.

When the country was founded, only rich white males could vote. Slavery was accepted as normal and just. The list goes on. All of these issues have been rectified, and more. We are a freer nation with a strong, diverse economy that makes the US the Land of Opportunity. Yes, there are problems with the country - all stemming to an entitlement mentality, in one way or another. That mentality (both the rich & the poor openly embrace their entitlements, I might add) has given us a taxation system that is hurting every demographic, a regulatory system that is crushing every industry, the notion that the majority can run the lives of their neighbors, a weak dollar, and more.

These issues need to be addressed, but with the understanding that we are correcting past mistakes that make us less vibrant - NOT with the mentality that th country sucks or is about to be Rome.

Abortion, sexuality, religion, etc are not the problem. You, like others, are finding only the shadow of a boogey-man while looking in the wrong direction. Gays, lesbians, bisexuals, swingers, bigamists, and others you would label mentally ill or deviant have zero negative impact on what makes the US great. The entitlement mentality that gives welfare to the poor and the rich alike: THAT is the root of all the problems that matter.

i cannot change what you have been told since childhood to rationalize and justify your sexual predilections.
homosexuality is a psychsexual fuckup and this was well recognized by the apa.  the removal of homosexuality from the dsm was the result of pc bs to spare the self esteem of confused young boys such as yourself. Wink

There you go again, Grum-pee: Being intellectually lazy....relying on personal insults to cover the fact that you've been ass-fucked by the previous post.

Well I respectfully disagree about the nature of homosexuality. It is a pity that mutual suspicion too often clouds these discussions. I do believe that homosexuality is some kind of disorder and I guess the main problem here is that there just isn't a nice way to say that. Oh well...I've said my peace. I also have profound religious objections to homosexuality that are intertwined with my cultural objections. I understand that not everyone shares my religious sensibilities (although I hope you all do some day  Smiley) so I did not bring religion up.

The purpose of intercourse is reproduction, pleasure is a by product. Based on the writings of early literature (DANTE),  the prevailing attitudes of a VAST MAJORITY of the population, anatomy and physiology I would say that we as humans were not designed to have anal sex. END OF STORY

So are you asserting that heterosexual anal sex is somehow wrong, immoral, or pathological?

By the by, Mr. D thinks if Larry Craig gets a blowjob from another guy, it's not really being "gay", or that 2 guys fucking in prison aren't engaged in homosexual activity. Do you agree with this, or would you care to set him straight?
If we were not boilogically meant to penetrtate and orfice that was menat for S*#T to come out of then most would have to say something is WRONG.  It seems pretty simple doesnt it?

Larry Criag is an azzbag....and people in prison are a waste of taxpayer dollars. Yes, I said it, the money we invest to rehabilitate these people is a HUGE WASTE OF MONEY.  These are the people that should be lab rats or better yet organ donors. They should have a forced regard for the right of other that they have violated.

Other than your other post which blames all of America's problems on sex-for-pleasure, this is the stupidest thing you've ever written here.
Goes to show that you are not paying attention.....Like I really take into consideration what you think about my posts. I have fun debating your positions on stuff because you just behaviors that are clearly are the roots of the problems in this country.  The libs ask for more and then more and then more and know we have gay shows on tv and even gay channels on cable.

Teenagers are having sex at even earlier ages because no one is paying attention ....why? Because parents are giving their children a false sense of confidence and treat them as equals and peers instead of parenting their children.  Children are permitted to negotiate their position.....so they feel they can go out and have sex for whatever reason...its wrong.  They are not ready and guess who pays the bill? People who make money.  So with the thoughts of people LIKE YOU the problem perpetuates itself.

Homosexuality is not natural....biologically it is perfectly clear that sex was meant for reproduction first and foremost...do we have sex for pleasure ....yes....but that is not the primarly intention of the act itself.

This society is becoming quite frustrating and ridiculous becasue everytime some groups asks to further bend what the idea of America is for their particular custom or belief the libs give it to them.....F*#k them......that is why we now have to tolerate gay marriage, illegals carry toilet paper and taking s*#ts in public and leaving thier toilet paper in the streets.  Thanks alot.
