30 years ago, people may have been okay with more aggressive elements of the church heaping vilification on the LGBTI(dafuq's the I)?community, but times are changing, and as people increasingly realize that "the gays" are just people like you or I, they look less favourably on the way the church treats them.

I am worried the same process of gradual acceptance is happening to Pedo/Hebephilia. Do you think we can stop at Gays/Trans or will we inevitably move 'forward' to a more accepting society?

The difference I believe lies in the harm or lack thereof. Pedophilia is incredibly harmful to children, and the desire to protect our children runs deep. By contrast, a consenting, adult gay couple wanting to get married harms nobody. 

So no, I don't see any danger of pedophilia becoming acceptable.



It's offending to other religions, which don't believe in Jesus Christ.

Besides that, I really hate the people who do a small pray before going into action in sports. It's like, "hey God, please help me win against the other team. I am your best fan."
If I would be God and seeing people doing that, I would put them in last place.

I do not know how it is in your country, but here they are trying to pass laws to let kids leran about sex in their tender age, with books with drawnings, porn for kids almost, and the focus will be on gay sex.

I think it is harmful, being exposed to sex, any sex, too early makes kids go kinda crazy, and it will probably make easier for the pedophiles and rapists, cause children may want to try those thing school showed them.

I think this benefits no one, specially NOT homossexuals.

I have some homo friends (female) that think this is a really bad idea as well.

The thing is: I do not see this stopping at all, as you said, things are changing way too fast and any resistance is being faced with a huge backlash.

I guess we are going for quite a ride in the next 50-100 years, when these kids become adults.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

That´s funny: "help me, I am your best fan" =D

But I do ask the Lord help everyday, althought I do say "If it is your will, please help me with so and so. But if it is not your will, then let your will be done, not mine."

What does gay marriage have to do with early sex education?

Sex education is a totally different issue to marriage equality.

The backlash against the resistance to marriage equality is because we as a society believe more and more that people deserve equal rights whether they're born gay or straight. Naturally, opposition to this idea comes under fire because such resistance runs counter to societal values of fairness and equal opportunity.

Resistance doesn't receive backlash arbitrarily; it receives backlash when it opposes the values of the community.

You don't equate homosexuality with murder, I hope.

I've talked to a person who says that in the eyes of God, sin is sin no matter what kind it is. As long as it's against His will, it's sin and that's all there is to it. Sadly, it also seems like the logical conclusion according to my knowledge of Christianity and the Bible. It does make sense if you look at it from a certain angle (a crime is a crime).

Disclaimer: I don't know what to believe in. Science still leaves enough room for God to exist, but there's also no scientific evidence supporting God. I'm happy enough with recognizing the situation and not making up my mind because it doesn't really matter right now. I'd rather give God the benefit of doubt than outright deny His existence.

Think of it this way.  There has always been a laundry list of things that science couldn't explain and were believed to be done by a god.  Until science explained them; thus forcing people to move down the list to the next thing science couldn't explain, until science explained it, and so on.  This is often reffered to as "the god of the gaps", where a god is the explination for something until it's debunked.  You can even look at how many different times the world was supposed to end, because god told someone "it's gonna happen" and yet here we are.

Also by the processes of logic, if God exists then he cannot be evil, because as the creator of the universe and all that is therein God defines good and evil, and anything God does is good. Anything God declares as good is good and anything God declares as evil is evil. It's like being the ultimate dungeon master. You write the rules of the game. What the players think of the rules is irrelevant.

Im not sure if your logic is sound here. Take Robert Mugabe, who is pretty much the founder of and ruler of modern Zimbabwe. He makes all the rules and crushes and protests against his rules, and has commited numerous acts that are seen in the outside world in a negative light, such as vote rigging and his land resdistribution policies.

Despite his record, is it all good just because he makes the rules?

So no, I can't see it happening.

You could argue that, from the perspective of a more traditionalist person, homosexuality is also harmful in the way that it "doesn't really allow you to reproduce and have a normal family, leaving one to indulge in degenerate behaviour - leading to a more miserable life". 

This 'gradual acceptance' of pedos i believe might come, not from the impossible lack of the need to protect our kids, but from empathy towards the 'poor, oppressed, ostricized people of diffirent sexual taste'. After all they are people just like us, right??  

Bloody hell, i didn't need to do this ;-;
