    Yup. You being an idiot 'is what it is'. Good job man. Your argument is invalid.

    Teachers shouldn't have students on their Facebook anyways, they should have their account private. He has a right to his beliefs and to express them on Facebook, but he does not have the right to let it effect his job as a teacher, which is has and probably will again if he has to deal with gay students.

    I don't like how he uses God as a back board. A homosexual inclination is not a sin!!!!! Its having sex out of marriage, whether straight or gay, that is a sin. They are equal. Of course, I am pretty sure this is Catholic teaching. I really don't know how people can be so hateful. In my case, I would choose to be straight if I could, so when people like him say stuff like that, it makes me feel worse. Good thing I am coming around to being gay. :slight_smile:

    To me, he lost his "this is for my FaceBook friends!!" argument when he befriended students. That is where the line is drawn for me.
