    Perhaps the increase in openly homosexual and bisexual people has increased because acceptance of these things has increased dramatically over the years. Not too long ago you could risk being executed in certain places of the world for being homosexual, whereas now there are laws protecting them. It's obviously easier and safer to be openly gay in the modern world, this is not rocket science.

    Out of curiosity, where does this statistic come from? I'm not 100% sure if it's true or false, I'm just interested in knowing where you found it because I can't find it myself.
    Assuming that what you've said here is true, that makes it even more absurd that you claimed homosexuality is a "rare phenomenon." 33% is not rare.
    Assuming it is not true, you're pulling more statistics from thin air and making yourself less and less credible in the argument.

    I also like how you chose to completely ignore the factual points I made in my reply and reduce it to a #stupidpost. Very classy.

    I wonder where you get the statistics from as well. I got mine statistics from different newspapers.
    The reason increase of bisexuals and homos was not only because society and some countries' governments accepted it. I believe that gay parades also played big role in brainwishing peoples' minds and changing their orientation.
    Anyways, I would like to end this argument because under "rare phenomenon" I mentioned people who feel as an opposite gender. Like boy feeling like he's girl. Or girl feeling like she's boy. I call these people real gays and real lesbians and these people should be treated specially. But no, you had to start this shitstorm consisting of your air statistics and trying to explain me that "gays" ist gut.
    If being "gay" is ok, why don't legalize cannibalism? Cannibals are people too, they just prefer different kind of meat.

    I've got to give you credit, you've just amazed me. That's the first time I've ever seen someone compare homosexuality to cannibalism. I don't think I should have to explain why being attracted to the same sex is different than eating another human being.
    Also, being gay does not mean you have to feel like the opposite gender. You're thinking of a transgender.
    I got my statistics from the following places:
    LGBT demographics of the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Can a mod go through the hurtful comments and asinine posts and just delete them?

    That's the joy of making a thread like this though, when you make something like this theirs going to be a huge list of hurtful things people can say, and they shouldn't be silenced because of this one thread. Something like this belongs on FaceBook, and not on a forum for a minecraft server, the people who are saying 'negative' things have every right to as no one is forced to change their beliefs and believe that 'gay people' are okay. But at the end, two people loving each other is a good thing and shouldn't be contested, but everyone has the right to contest it, as long as they remain civil on the matter and not throwing out homophobic remarks. Which I have not seen on this thread.

    Homosexuality is in over 200 species.


    Homophobia is in one.


    If you have homophobia,

    You're not scared.

    You're an idiot.
    ___________________________

    I'm sorry you have to deal with these idiots Pinky. Even though Catholicism is against homosexuality however I believe that it's nature's way of making you different in a good way. Being gay shouldn't be a burden to you; it should be something you can celebrate because you're different from everyone else.



    EDIT squirrel, accept that you're being an ignorant little *

    double negative = a positive

    You just said people are born with sexual feelings, which they aren't.
    Just pointing that out.

    You're not too young to know. Lmao.

    As a child you're welcomed into a world which at this moment in time sees heterosexual couples as the norm and homosexual couples as something rare and sometimes despised.

    It's like the whole idea of being introduced to the whole ideas of crushes, if people are so quick to presume a four year old female to have a crush on a male then it's clear that they see it as that even as a child you have a preference and crap like that. You're not too young to be a lesbian just like society thinks that you're not too young to be heterosexual.

    Kudos to you for coming out though, however, you shouldn't have to come out. People shouldn't see homosexuality as something which you have to admit to, you should just be able to keep it to yourself like heterosexuality as you don't have to come out as heterosexual.

    I'm not being ignorant I simply disagree with your statement that if is natures way. Nature has no role in homosexuality. As Zambiana has said you are born with no sexual feelings. being gay is a burden to people round my way as it is full of I accepting old people. My black friend said to me, "I don't mind the old people being derogatory as it is how they are and we won't change that." I tend to agree with him. And people with anti-gay feelings will change about as fast as homosexuals will change to heterosexual. I hope you understand my difference of opinion.

    Wrong....
    dead wrong
    Christianity (and a lot of branches of christianity) are against the act of a man laying with another man. In this case "God" does not hate homosexual people, just their act of intercourse.
    In the catholic faith which I was brought up and studied, I learned that the belief of why homosexual intercourse was wrong was because sex was meant for man and woman to reproduce. Sex was less about pleasure but more about bearing children. Many families were large back then because contraception was wrong. The whole idea was because God made us in his image and thus we are sacred. The human sex organs contain the necessary tools for making more humans, which are sacred. Therefore anything that is unborn is still sacred. So if the act cannot make a child, it was deemed wrong, which homosexual sexual relations do not. In other words the male secretion going to waste.

    But thats just what I was taught being catholic. Our bishop in our town spoke out and said that he is accepting of anyone in a homosexual relationship. The pope wants more acceptance of homosexual people.
    The ones who hate gays is this small church Westboro Baptist Church. Which is not a catholic church, but a baptist one that spreads very hateful messages, embarrassing the Christian religion.
    To label Catholics against homosexuality is not correct. If you want to pick on a religion please use the terms correctly.
    ie: Christianity, Islam, Judaism
    /end rant
    Pope Francis Addresses Gay Marriage: Church Should Support Families With LGBT Children
    I am a non practicing Catholic spending 14 years in Catholic schooling.

    I was born in a predominantly Catholic country. I go to Mass every Sunday. I go to a private Catholic school. I've been brought up with that state of mind. I've heard it at Mass.



    Also, religion isn't something you can class as right or wrong, nor can you dictate my opinions and thoughts on it. It's a personal thing. I'm not picking on a religion. I've been bought up with those states of mind all my life pretty much. Maybe you should let people have their own untouched opinions for once.

    Tl;Dr I would rather you not tell me whether my religious views are right or wrong. Stop trying to. Don't even go into accusing me.

    Calm down.
    This is why its difficult talking about religion.
    If you want to make generalizations like Catholics are against Homosexuals expect backlash like this.
    I am accusing you only of making a generalized statement that does not accurately depict the thoughts of the Catholic religion.
    Young U.S. Catholics overwhelmingly accepting of homosexuality | Pew Research Center
    Catholics still lead way on gay marriage - The Washington Post
    New Poll Shows Strong Catholic Support for Gay Rights | Religion Dispatches

    This is why you don't generalize.
    I said wrong because your statement is false, not all catholics are against homosexuality and I have gone through and found my evidence. You may think thats the case because its a religion and "omg religions hate gay people". But thats not the case at all.
    As I told you the gay hating group is the Westboro Baptist Church with all the extreme "God Hates FS" signs. Baptist is not Catholic.
    With saying that, yes, some catholics are against homosexuals and various things to do with them.

    Most of what I said was just ramblings of what I learned studying religion anyway.
    So chill.

    Seeing as this thread ran it's course and is now turning into a religion debate (which I knew would happen) I'm closing it.
