Mate you don't get to choose your sexuality it just is what it is, I doubt I could convince you that your (presumed) heterosexuality was a choice and that you should have sex with men and enjoy it.

I  look forward to seeing resolute dick wad getting banned when his obvious poe/trolling gets too much for the powers that be.

Guess we'll never know.  Not into dudes.

Enjoying something doesn't mean someone made a good decision.  There are people who "enjoy" animals, and even claim it's normal and natural.   I don't agree with them either.   I can't decide for people what they choose behind closed doors.  However, I can make choices for myself.  Heck, sometimes I mess up, but such is life.  When I realize it, hopefully I rework my thought process so I get it right the next time.

Not even remotely the same thing

Go because it's not the same thing

Only on things that are worthy of being respected

Homosexuality is not a choice

 Isn't a lifestyle  either

Cake don't have a sexuality

Nobody should have to do that . It's not the gay person job to accommodate bigotry 


Quote:No big deal.

  It is a big deal

Nobody should ever have to go to the next store and no it's a defeat for society that anybody should have too .

I'm not saying you're wrong.  But there's no way for me to come to the same conclusion based on that video.  In other words, what makes them a cult?

I watched a good part of the video, and a lot of it was just singing and talking about people experience.  Sometimes the idea of "no god" came up, but not all of it was like that.

Not for nothin'; a lot of towns don't have a 'next shop'. Or a 'next pharmacy'.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

Yeah, and imagine if the florist or the caterers, or the chauffeurs had the same attitude as our baker friend... It's looking like hard work for the happy couple.
