It isn't.   Just didn't get a chance to put a moderation note there yesterday, because I forgot to do it before the ban... and then the ban erased the posts.

Well isn't that convenient, one of the sites writers just so happens to get away with it, yet I get banned because of a post someone else had made. What great modding.

i believe he was banned for it already. thats why he couldn't put a note in it had been moderated. when banned users post do not show up with text.

Yeah, me banning you for posting this was out of line...

Don't push it, Frozone.

"Yeah, me banning you for posting this was out of line..."

No it wasn't out of line it was just idiotic, you said you banned me for saying this "that 8/10 gay couples who adopted children ended up with a child who turned out to be gay when they become older."

When I wasn't the one who said it, I was quoting someone else that said it hence the " marks. Pay attention next time.

This refers also to the post above since this guy doesn't use the quote button.

yeah...but you're still an ignorant bigot.  whether you 'earned' that ban or not is irrelevant, the world is still better off without you.  

Please do go away, mr homophobe. 

A very difficult situation. Being a father I can understand the pain the son has inflicted by never giving his father any grandchildren and carrying on his family line. This can be very painful for a father. Also, the son should have realized that there was a good chance his father would react like this. Distributing his personal family matters on the internet shows that the son is very self-=centered, using a personal family issue to support a cause. If he wants a relationship with his father, and it seems that he doesn't really care about his father's wishers, he should have stayed in the closet. What would his father do if he decided to become a priest? This approach has worked forever.

Wow, so let me get this straight, if you're not 'normal' or otherwise happily vanilla in every aspect of your life, you should keep it to yourself and pretend otherwise just to please those around you? 

Hells yeah, that's the very path to unhappiness, misery, and mental/emotional scarring.  good for you, you're intolerant! 

The way I see it, the father had a better chance of having grandchildren (through adoption) if he kept seeing his son than if he cut him out of his life. The fact that the son decided to post that letter for the all the world to see just shows how deeply scarred he was by his father's rejection.

I'm not sure I get the rest of your post though, are you suggesting the son should have stayed in the closet all his life just so he could have a relationship with his father? That's basically asking him to live a lie for the rest of life just because the father is too stupid to realize that being gay doesn't change the person he knew his son to be.
