Homophobia is bigger than racisim in America. Yes it's crazier that a black guy became president than a gay guy got 2nd place on American Idol. But it would be even crazier to have a gay president than a black president.

Obviously NONE of you have read the bible or now what Christians are SUPPOSED to teach. Being gay is just fine. Living the life-style is sinful.



Gosh everyone is a dumbass except me.

I'm curious as what people mean by "the life-style". Do they mean the sleeping with a lots of different guys, partying every night, drugs, alcohol? Or is having a meaningful relationship with someone of the same sex, just as a straight couple would have, considered "the life-style" too and thus sinful too?

Bold: That is frowned upon no matter what your sexual orientation thing.

Italicized: It's a sex thing. We can have a meaningful relationship but if we initiate in sex, that's wrong. Weird, I know.

I find that people (worldwide) try and justify their hatred towards homosexuals, and they are shameless in their convictions. I come across these people fairly frequently

I have seldom come across people who say they hate another race and tried to justify it; and if they do try to justify it they almost never do it as shamelessly as homophobes do.

However, both racism and homophobia exist. It's just that it is seen as "more acceptable" to be a homophobe in the public eye.

Just to drive home my point, I could easily name five or six established members on this site who have said they hate homosexuals or their behaviour, but I have only ever once seen a well established member of this site say they hate other races in the same way.

This is typical example of someone who mixes political correctness with tolerance.

People are not required to like someone and praise his way of life just because they are minority all that tolerance asks is that we  don't discriminate against them.

Well, a lot of Christians haven't read the bible and don't act nearly as they are SUPPOSED to act.
That aside, gay people are not solely discriminated based on the bible even by Christians (they were just taught to by family/environment).

If you come out in school, you're likely to be discriminated against (depending on where the school is, even by teachers/administratives) even if you've never had neither a relationship, nor sex.



Hmmm thats hard to say, People hate gays a lot, but gays dont really cause any trouble whereas black people have a much higher crime to person ratio than whites, so whites feel uneasy around them.

But in the end itd have to be gays, because gays are seen as a joke by most people whereas alot of people get on with black people just fine.

On a serious note probably gay people on a day to day basis.
