Why are you Against Homosexuality (to theists)

RE: Why are you Against Homosexuality (to theists)
Probably because the idea was to simply out-breed opposing tribes, and that notion was codified as some sort of directive from god, complete with penalties for having sex simply for pleasure.

Because gay sex is icky.

Because the Bible and the Koran are retarded books.

That's because these people would have been homophobes anyway, they just get to use the Bible as an excuse. If social conservatives hated shrimp, they'd be using the line against eating shellfish as an excuse too.

Why did god allow love between same sex throughout nature.

After all love is love. Is it not?


1) You keep on mentioning a God that according to you does not exist.
If he doesn't exist why then he suppose to do this or that?

2) Not all theists are against gays.
I am one of those.

RE: Why are you Against Homosexuality (to theists)
Homosexuality poses a game changing problem for both patriarchy and controling female sexuality. Both of which are the major activities of religion.

In my heart you know I respect and understand homosexuality in men. Yet, regardless of what my mind and heart understand, my body and my hormones will still respond to an attractive gay man the same way they would to a straight man.

Imagine how threatening this is for a woman who has no understanding and thinks homosexuality is just a preference. If she’s been raised like so many women to think her worth as a woman depends on her ability to catch a man, gays pose a special challenge.

For a straight man who has been raised to think of sex as an expression of dominance and special male privilege over women, the idea of men with men blurs the lines they’ve been raised to think of as solid.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

When I was a Christian, I was certainly as bigoted as the majority of them were. My parents raised me to be against homosexuality and our church backed up their sentiments. For many, going along with bigotry is just the way you get accepted in your social group. It's a good thing I started thinking for myself, because I am what I used to hate. My new social group lets me be myself.
I don't believe you. Get over it.

Well that's all well and good, but you do worship a god who, as it says in the bible, hates homosexuality.
It would seem that it does not bode well for a person if god hates them. Eternal torment actually.
So you say you're not against them but you worship someone who is.
Doesn't make a lot of sense, does it.

I don't believe in god, you believe in him though.
I acknowledge the existence of his ideology. But he never showed himself.

I'm not obsessed with him. But in a day and age where people are spouting bullshit at me everyday about the magical sky daddy, I have to learn to defend myself...
Now don't I?

It's your burden to tell me what he's supposed to do.
It's my burden to disapprove him (with logic).

Theists believe that homosexuality is wrong in someway, isn't that true?

And please stop reading the bible, like I said it is a bullshit forgery, please read the ingel or Quran if you're gonna believe in this crap.
