While I am opposed to homosexuality, I think it's a bit ridiculous to compare it to genocide.

 

[Parox]

What is being destroyed?



Proof?



Why are you opposed to homosexuality? It's like declaring yourself opposed to the colour green.

Our ability to continue to continue to reproduce is being destroyed.

When a child sees two homosexuals kissing, it can lead them to thinking homosexuality is okay.

I think homosexuality is necessary, without it the world would eventually become overpopulated.

I think homosexuality is necessary, without it the world would eventually become overpopulated.

That's like saying murder is necessary, or the death penalty.

The Death Penalty is necessary.

But I agree with the opening statement.

Homosexuality is just unnatural - I would love to see it eradicated.

What in the world?? How is homosexuality in any way comparable to genocide? It doesn't kill anyone and the only way it would destroy the human race is that EVERYONE would have to be gay/lesbian which wouldn't happen.

What you have said makes absolutely no sense, we have over 6 billion people, I think we'll be ok if some people are gay.

Homosexuality is ok, its not wrong and by all means abnormal, Seeing two men kiss is not going to Turn a Child Gay nor will it damage them.

Homosexuality is caused due to genetics not by choice like every religious quack seems to think, life is hard enough as it is why would anyone truly choose to be sexually attracted to the same sex.
The main reason people think homosexuality is wrong is because years ago churches frowned upon, statements like "God doesn't make you Gay, The Devil does" is fraudulent and basically its like saying "We don't know anything about it, lets blame the devil"

Maybe you could try standing in someone else's shoes for once.

Homosexuality a crime..? You don't decide or choose to be a homosexual ..nor can you change it....are you really saying someone is a criminal for being honest with themselves and true to who they really are?

Homosexuals are people who would like to mate with the same gender.

In biology, mating is the pairing of opposite-sex or hermaphroditic organisms for copulation and in social animals it also includes the raising of their offspring.

By the above definition, homosexuals cannot mate with one another, so you have mis-defined the term. Properly defined, homosexuality refers to anybody whose sole sexual attraction is to members of the same sex.

Since people cannot reproduce with others of the same gender, one can say that it would destroy our human society and can influence others into their homosexual society.

You have taken a valid statement (that homosexual couples cannot reproduce by conventional means) and claimed that this will, in some way destroy human society because it influences others to become homosexuals (without any attempt at making a justification for your position).

Since this leads to destruction of our human society, homosexualism can be classified as a crime against humanity, the same way genocide is.

This is so ridiculous, I have a hard time believing that you actually hold this position. Would you consider the countless millions of birth control users to be guilty of committing "crimes against humanity"? Should nearly all adults be executed for committing acts which are comparable to genocide? Again, I have a hard time taking you seriously with the outlandishness of your statements.

 

[Arrogant Sin]

And, with your argument, everyone is required to produce as many offspring as possible for them to avoid committing crimes against humanity. So people who use protection (i.e. teenagers) are also committing crimes against humanity. Think of all those potential babies down the drain! :'(

Your argument doesn't make sense. Homosexuality isn't a choice. It's completely fine.

 

[Stormstruck]

correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't the increase in population destroying the world?

my opinion: people should be free to love whoever they choose, being in the minority shouldn't make it a crime against humanity

 

[Kiabin]

I'd like to see the proof where it states that your genetics make you homosexual, and you don't have the choice.

People have the right to choose their sexuality. It's their life, so let them live.

while genetics may play a role, it is very unlikely that there is only one factor that leads to homosexuality.

personally, i feel that this view of homosexuals having different genes is more offensive than saying it is by choice.
this is because this belief in a genetic cause is fueling a whole new field of genetic research.

it is funding the field trying to FIND A GAY GENE

i find this highly offensive because homosexuality is not something we should be using to tell each other apart. homosexuality should not be viewed so negatively.
oh and dont tell me that people arent negative to the idea of homosexuality.

THE FIRST THING THAT WOULD HAPPEN IF A GAY GENE WERE FOUND WOULD BE ITS DETECTION IN FETUS'

THATS RIGHT. THE ONLY REASON PEOPLE WANT TO FIND A GAY GENE IS SO THEY CAN FIND OUT IF THEY WANT TO ABORT A BABY BASED ON ITS PRESUMED SEXUAL ATTRACTIONS.

finding this "gay gene" has no other applications other than this highly offensive form of genocide.





my belief, the term homosexual should mean no more than the term handyman or mailman.
seriously, you dont see people trying to find a mailman gene.

Homosexuality is not a crime against humanity. It's only considered to be morally 'not right' by others strictly on the fact that they were raised that it was wrong, or they plain out heard it from another source.

I'm currently learning about the human mind. I have learned that human beings develop personalities and beliefs based on the fact that we learn by hearing things.

Example:

Person A - "Michael Jackson touches little boys."

Person B - "I'm avoiding that guy then."


Homosexuality being morally wrong was nothing but a rumor started, and eventually spread throughout most of our youth's minds in our present day now.

 

[Kiabin]

I believe strongly that homosexuality is a phase that is built onto due to raging hormones. And eventually, into the phase, you decide that you actually are homosexual. It's my opinion, and in some cases it's correct .

The world is run by homophobes, and we can't stop that. It's sad that somebody should be a homophobe. When put into a different perspective, being a homophobe is like being racist. You're prejudice towards somebody regardless of a flaw you may not like. E.g. Homosexuality.

In classical antiquity, writers such as Herodotus,[1] Plato,[2] Xenophon,[3] Athenaeus[4] and many others explored aspects of same-sex love in ancient Greece. The most widespread and socially significant form of same-sex sexual relations in ancient Greece was between adult men and adolescent boys, known as pederasty. (However, marriages in Ancient Greece between men and women were also age structured, with men in their 30s commonly taking wives in their early teens.) Though homosexual relationships between adult men did exist, at least one member of each of these relationships flouted social conventions by assuming a passive sexual role. It is unclear how such relations between women were regarded in the general society, but examples do exist as far back as the time of Sappho.[5]

The ancient Greeks did not conceive of sexual orientation as a social identifier, as Western societies have done for the past century. Greek society did not distinguish sexual desire or behavior by the gender of the participants, but rather by the role that each participant played in the sex act, that of active penetrator or passive penetrated.[5] This active/passive polarization corresponded with dominant and submissive social roles: the active (penetrative) role was associated with masculinity, higher social status, and adulthood, while the passive role was associated with femininity, lower social status, and youth.[5

If anything the world is too populated..I see that as more of a problem then homosexual people causing "genocide." I could care less if someone is homosexual, it's their choice. We have no right to change another person's sexual preference.

 

[Axilant]

That's like saying murder is necessary, or the death penalty.

Sadly, murder is. Anybody who commits a crime, and makes it through the court system long enough for them to sentence capital punishment, in my opinion, deserves it.

 

[kill dank]

I understand what you're saying. It's not a legitimate reason to dislike gaysthough
.. Maybe if you had some more facts..
