Quote:No... you are wrong. I'm not prejudice, fearful, or hateful of people with same sex attraction. I do think that homosexual activity is wrong and a sin. You are being fairly negative towards my beliefs right now, would you consider yourself phobic. You can disagree, and say that I am wrong, but that doesn't make you a bigot. It is intolerance towards those with differing opinions that makes you a bigot.If you oppose homosexuality you are a homophobe . This is not a question of disagreement opposing homosexuality is not disagreement it's bigotry plain and simple. And your beliefs are homophobic as well calling them such is not bigoted it's pointing out your beliefs are bigoted opposing bigotry is not bigotry no matter how much your kind tries to paint it that way

Quote:And just to note. While it may have wormed it's way into the definition, I think that this ambiguity is still a misuse of the word. I also think that it stems from deceptive tactics and is not an enhancement of the language. I don't consider myself phobic in any sense of that word in regards to homosexuals. And if you are using the word homophobic in regards to me, then I'm likely to ask you to clarify it each and every time. Just a heads up.I don't care if you agree with the definition nor do i care if you think you are homophobic and you can whine when i call you out as much as you like i will still call you what you are and your requests (rabbit holes) will be ignored .
Quote:No; If you mean that I think that homosexual activity is a sin and immoral. I don't think that disagreement or thinking that something is wrong, means that you are intolerant. When you loosen the definition that much, then you are a bigot as well.So your a bigot and a homophobe . And no opposing bigotry is not bigotry as homosexuality is NOT a matter of agreement .What an age we live were bigots whine when there ideological bigotry is called out
I think it's poor polemics to stretch the definition of emotionally charged words, and then go on to equivocating them afterwards.
