World is becoming strange womanly dystopia. I actually like it but I am nervous about future.
Freedom of speech and being free to dislike homosexuality should be rights too.

Part of the problem is people assume thinking homosexuality is a sin, means they don't like people who do participate in it. It's why "homophobic" now means those who think it's a sin, versus those who are actually afraid of homosexual people or acts.

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/homophobic - "Fear, hatred, or mistrust of lesbians and gay men."

There are plenty of Christians who will get labeled a homophobic even if they are friends with those who are gay, simply because they believe it's a sin.

When Christians say adultery or lying is a sin and have parents or siblings or friends who commit adultery or lie, do they get called afraid of those who commit adultery or lie? It seems silly, right?

Tolerance is not enough. The gay lobby is demanding acceptance. They demand that people accept and condone their lifestyles while not tolerating, accepting, or condoning the lifestyles of religious peoples. Everyone deserves tolerance. No one is entitled to acceptance. Attempting to force people to accept your beliefs and lifestyle is intolerant, and religious people deserve tolerance just as much as homosexuals. This behavior is very intolerant.
