@Tecshare

Gay people are only asking for equality, your argument about forcing people to except is thin because you are able tolerate other religions, therefore what some one does in their bedroom should be a lot easier.

Read what I stated again carefully. This has nothing to do with what people do in the privacy of their own homes, and everything to do with how they treat people with opposing beliefs IN PUBLIC. Equality first of all is a myth. No one is equal to anyone else, if that were the case we would all have to be clones. Pretending we are all equal strips us all of our uniqueness and individuality. What is a right of all humans however is TOLERANCE. Everyone deserves tolerance regardless of their sexuality or what they believe in as long as everything is consensual and does not infringe upon the rights of others.

What no one has a right to is acceptance. Gay activist groups are DEMANDING acceptance, and no one has a right to demand other people ACCEPT their lifestyles or beliefs because that infringes on the freedoms of others. The kicker is while they demand acceptance they also refuse to even show religious peoples tolerance and actively seek to attack religious peoples and institutions. This is extremely hypocritical. Gay people don't deserve EXTRA rights, they deserve to be treated with tolerance like every other human does, including religious peoples.

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.

Religion has always been intolerant of homosexuals,so the dynamics will always have issues. Personally think we have had those days where religion dictated how we treated one another and its time to move forward. One group is asking you to see them as human beings and the other is passing judgement. Think bringing religion into the discussion just brings the topic into a tailspin. If you do not believe in equality,I do not see how you can truely tolerate homosexuals and diversity.
