There's a whole series of things that I would like to say, and I'll be the first to admit that they're not all so kind, but with justification. You guys surely are narrow-minded when it comes to homosexuals. There are SO many things I could say about it. First of all, theatre is not a GAY people thing; it's a people thing. I'm the only gay kid in my theatre group *gasp*. Excuse me? People choose to be gay because of PEER PRESSURE? That is the... That's the most ridiculous argument from Conservatives I've heard EVER! The true peer pressure is kids choosing to pretend to be straight so they can be 'cool' and 'normal' and a 'good Christian.' Oh yes, and let's mention that.
Homosexuality is called an abomination, that's true. But think about the context of that specific scripture. What else was said? "Thou shalt stone your children when they are disobedient." "Thou shalt stone adulterers." "Thou shalt not eat shellfish." If Jesus disagreed with these laws, what makes homosexuality any different? Just because you FEAR it? Just because you're so cruel and selfish to act so arrogantly, as if your view of the Bible is flawless? The word of the Bible is perfect, but your interpretations of it are not. http://www.soulforce.org/article/homosexuality-bible-gay-christian Read this for more information.
I'm a gay Christian, a ''Christian''. I believe Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior with my entire spirit. I praise and worship Him, and repent for my sins. I follow Him so dearly, in ways you would be skeptical believe, because I'm just some "Homosexual recruiter looking to make all boys gay and use them just for sex. I'm just some faggot boy who chose to be gay for attention." If you think homosexuality is a choice, try it! Sure, you could go to a gay bar, maybe kiss a guy/girl, but --- unless you are a self-internalized homophobic or bisexual --- you'll never feel anything, just as I would never feel satisfaction if I chose to be with a woman. God said for me to find a suitable partner (singular, I may add; I'm not going to be some shameless prostitute who has random sex with no meaning. Being gay is not just about sex; being straight is not just about sex.), so I shall.
I've gone through stages in my life where I tried to get rid of my sexuality. I fasted, beat myself, cut myself, bit myself, had therapy, prayed constantly, humbled myself, held a cross to my head expecting to become straight, stared at women to try to find some sexual amusement, avoided Athletics so I wouldn't be forced to see my classmates in their underwear, etc. I was a mess. I was going to kill myself, because I couldn't be myself.
Now I'm a happy, enthusiastic person, with a loving, humbling relationship with my Lord and Father. You should be ashamed of your views... which linger on idiocy, as any reasonable, open-minded person would realize. --[[User:Bocaj910|Bocaj910]] 22:16, 17 November 2011 (EST)
