NOM warning against young people having gay friends.

I guess me having black friends is just the evils of martin Luther king brainwashing my mind.

 

I guess having any female friend is against macho movemenet....

 

My response to this article is as follows.

I am all for them sanctifying the bedroom for their straight marriages. They need to stop fighting and be humble, not use birth control as it stops natural procreation which they believe is the purpose of straight marriages, then ban divorces for straight Christians as that goes clearly against God's word, I can show them where it is in several verses...and they can't mistreat their wives as then God can't hear their prayers that is in NT. So as soon as they take the beam out of their own eye hole they can point at the speck in gay relationships.

And as far as being forced to be allies, I think I seen peer pressure both ways on it and it is marginal in college. Seems like it is more about do not bully and do not kill LGBTQ, which kinda goes along with the message of our Lord Jesus rather well.

 

I was going to ask if anyone actually does listen to them, and then you implied that you used to. It's weird the things alot of us used to support. I remember saying on a forum, when I considered myself straight, that I believe gay marriage is wrong, because of my religion... Too bad we didn't have Mathew Vines back then.

 

They are getting desperate knowing that my generation will be the ones to fulfill marriage equality and gay rights in all 50 states. Just a simple act of desperation and and I am loving it.

 

wasn't it the "younger" generation that are against racism? lol

EDIT:
ie: isn't it always the younger generation who likes change?

 

Really? I'm the only one in my friend group who's "traditional" in any way! If anything, I shouldn't hang around straight kids (including those who have gay parents. The horror!).

 

Ugh, people don't need any help from hate groups telling people to ostracize us. We're already really hurting as it is. It's like every time I come out, I think "will this person reject me?"

 

*holds over bill* Told'ya they were anti-gay.

 

friends dont let friends be bullied by the National Organization for Mentally-unstable-fuckwads.

 

So the "peer pressure" is bad but it's okay if it's anti-gay peer pressure. Isn't that an oxymoron?

 

Me too! I was told once Gay marriage is a bad thing. So I asked why. They said something kinda vague, like IDK that it could harm straight marriage. And I asked more questions cause I respected them and wanted to support their cause but it sounded not very well thought out. So then they came up with it will cause more gays to diverse and that ties up courts...I thought momentarily how much it costs too, and a waste of money. Then they said pedophile groups want to lower the age of consent are watching and so are groups like Mormons who want polygamy...they are next! Well everybody knows we don't want Mormons to win! (ahem)So I kinda accepted that I did not really want to support gay marriage..although I was not going to speak adamantly against it. Also I had a crush on a guy who turned out was gay...I didn't want him to get married to that guy when clearly I am his destiny.

So how come when I came out this began to look rather absurd?

When I was straight acting as girl....I know I was told gay is a sin, didn't seem to stop me from noticing the good in everyone...so I was confused how come I had 2 gay men my close buddies like brothers to me? So I would not have rejected you. But nobody hold warn kids to stay away from other kids...unless that kid is in jail for murder or rape I guess...cuz yeah, how does bullying make you better?

 

ok, well shouldn't there be a separation between "church" and "state"
marriage is a religious thing
though there are laws about marriage ...
and isn't marriage in many different religions?
and then that means stopping marriage between 2 consensual people goes against freedom of religion (ones own personal religion)
people can be so selfish

so I'm starting my own religion called "Be Nice to People" (might have to work on a better name)
Rule 1: Don't hurt other people intentionally
2: Anyone can have coitus with any consenting adult person/people
3: marriage is the union between 2 or more consenting adults
4: don't be selfish, the world is not just for you
5: anyone can be whoever they want to be (aka transgender, need a better way to say this)
6: nobody can be owned by another person

and I think that's it >.>
feel free to correct anything

 

well there are marriages that are not religious based
so there are actually 2 types of marriages ... religious amd law based
one shouldn't define the other ...

 

but i thought law based is only for taxes and medical things??

we should like, bring (back) arranged marriage to the US or something...
