Should homosexuality be allowed in the society?

If society outlawed everything that a small percentage of people were personally offended by, we'd be living in police states that monitored our every action. The personal views of a few do not govern the many, especially not in America. You have your views. That's your opinion. Your opinion is at odds with the government, the board of psychiatry, the board of medicine and dozens of other organizations that contribute to the major decisions of America. I consider a lot of things to be wrong and perverted. But those are my own opinions. That doesn't give me any right to tell people they can't live their lives the way they want to - providing they are consenting adults. And on the subject of being born gay... you may not agree, but science certainly does. There are dozens of studies which show that homosexuality is biological and encoded on the genes along with hair color, height, eye color and skin pigment.

Hmmm.....I don't agree with religious fanatics.....should all religion be banned? Yes, of course it should....in my opinion. It all comes down to how the brain developed when it was in fact developing. There are are gay animals for crying out loud. If you don't like it, then why bother watching it and devoting so much of your time and effort into trying to change people that can't be changed?

What do you mean can it be allowed? You may as well ask the question if people should be allowed to be black, asian, brown eyed, bow legged, short, tall, epileptic, blind, man or woman. Face facts, it's been proven over and over that homosexuality is not a choice. Whether you believe or not, it's there. Why would someone choose to be homosexual? Why would a person choose a life facing hate on purpose? Of course they wouldn't!! Why can't we live, and let live? Why does it matter to anyone what people do in their bedrooms? It shouldn't!

I think that it doesn't hurt anyone so let them do it. I see no problem with it at all. In a world where we are overun with people and problems associated with overcrowding, maybe homosexuality is our way of dealing with that problem.

I do not think we have the right to not allow someone in society. I have and had friends that were homosexual and I really do not see the problem with it. That is a life style that they chose and they should not be condemed for it. That might be things in our lifestyle that others do not like.

we all have different opinions but that doesn't give anybody the right to be judged for what they are just because they are homosexuals... it is not not a question of should be allowed or practiced, yes it is said in the bible that it is wrong but it was not said in the bible that they don't have the right to live for what they are... people who you call homosexuals, they are just being true to their selves living life the way they know they would be happy and letting people know who they really are without denial. not all homosexuals are "preverted" as you said, maybe some but still that doesn't give us the right to question their preference or being themselves... If there would be one person or anybody that needs an explanation why one chooses to be a homosexual, and the only one who could judge one, it's a priest, a friend, a parent, or the president, it would only be the creator who has the right and to judge and not anybody else... and by the way i'm a lesbian... =)

I've never met a gay person I didn't like alot. I've come to think of homosexuality as a sort of genetic breakdown, a mutation, and thus were born that way - although there is a movement among young women that implies choice. It's my opinion they should have civil unions (when they want them) with full legal rights of insurance, etc, if that is what they choose to do. I do not agree with changing the definition of marriage, and feel it is rather rowdy to hold out for that, rather than embrace civil unions. In Denmark where they did change the description of marriage, they now are beginning to have group marriages. I can't help but remember that group and community marriage was always the satanic ideal. I see how much society has changed in the last fifty years or so, and how unsafe children now are in this world, and I'm in no hurry to keep to the progressive direction.

honestly, its that kind of ignorant thinking by people like you who make it dificult for anyone to be accepted. you want to talk about homosexual and christianity, read some of my topics. Jesus himself never said anything about homosexuals being wrong or a sin, and the old testiments states that the voilence not the sexuality was more of a sin. AND it also says in the bible that and in christian teachings that you are not to judge others, and of course you're not being a "REAL" christian by making these statments anyway. we have no right to judge those. and saying that its impossible for people to be born gay...that is just an opinion and not real fact taught to you by radical chruch figures who want to think they the only right way...is their way which is the problem with christians these days. people are getting some kind of wrong screwed up message of their own interpretations from the bible which was written hundreds of years ago by MAN. unless you have taken the time to get to know homosexuals and understand their own reasons for being the way they are, then you can have a real opinion on them.

this is the problem with christians in america. but before i get into that you need to understand where i'm coming from. i am a christian. a very strong christian. so don't think that i'm bashing the church. i love the church (the being, not the building....but i do love the building too). because america is seen as a "christian nation" i feel that christians in america have this sense that it needs to "look christian." this is not true. we, as christians, can't expect the rest of the world to live up to our moral standards. in the case of homosexuality, i share your idea that it is wrong (maybe not as hatefully as you do, but still) but just because we see it as wrong doesn't mean the rest of society should see it the same way. christians are going about all these topics (gay-marriage, abortion and everything else) the completely wrong way. just because we pass a law the forbids it doesn't mean that the problem is fixed. just because you can't see it doesn't mean it's not there. we can't just try and change the way people live and once they live like we do say that they are christians. we have to get to the heart of the matter.....which would be their hearts. if we can change their hearts towards Christ, their lifestyle and morals will fall in line.

How can you say that? Who are you to say that homosexual is wrong? I'm not a homosexual, but i'm tired of people saying that homosexual is disgusting, and should not be allowd in our society. Why is that? Because they prefer guys? They can't change that! I know a lot of homosexual, and I know that is their choice. They just don't atracted to women. God creat them this way, and they can't change. I think everyone need to do what he thinks that it's good for him. You are straight, good for you. They are homosexual, good for them. You would never hear from homosexual about straight that we are disgusting, or something like that. Anyway, I think you should change your point of view about homosexuals. This is what I think about it, and I hope that you will get a bit soft about this subject.

Paul said that about homosexuality in the Bible, Jesus did not say a word about it. Yes, according to the Bible it is a sin, as are many things I am sure you and I are guilty of. And typically, when a person is THAT against something, they are fighting there own urges and that is how they reconcile theirselves to how wrong it is. You have the right to your own opinion but if you really are a Christian, you know that condemning someone based on their personal choices is not a way to salvation.

I think everyone should be free to live how it is they want to live. No-one has the right to tell another person who they can or cannot love. Just because you don't believe in it doesn't make it wrong. And you interpret the bible in your own way and let others do it theres.

You sound ignorant. I thought you were going somewhere with this. Are you questioning your own belief? God is love no matter what. God created us in his picture. He created the gay too. You obviously are judging something you do not understand. Homosexuality has been since the dawn of day. And it will be until the final night. It is not up to us to judge or to decide.

I think we should allow people be what they want to be. It is their rights and there's nothing wrong about being a homosexual as long as they equally respect other people. To think that homosexuality is disgusting is quite a negative reaction. Would you want someone to label you disgusting just because you have a moustache? It's something like that. I hope we should educate people about ecah other's perception so that we can all live together peacefully.

Shall we allow straight people to fornicate and reproduce? Answer me that. Shall we allow sexuality at all, or just stay all bottled up and never even meet another's eye in public.I think it's a little farfetched to proclaim that you can control the basest instinct in all human sthat live in a collective society or..anywhere!! What a gigantic statement of 'pious'tyranny.Didn't Catholocism already try this approach? Control people through their pockets , libidos and stomachs?Guilt shouldnt be a religion all on its own.Good luck controlling the world.Not.

That is bad is bad, homosexuality is not good from health point of view and society at large don't except this.

Well you know something Zhar, let people live their lives and let God sort them out in the end. Until then it really isn't our place to point fingers and unfortunately Christains can be the biggest hypocrites with their open talk about right and wrong but they can't get their own life in order. Don't throw rocks if you live in a glass house Christains. Of course you have your opinion and you can voice it but I think prayer is the answer you are looking for.

It's a lifestyle that I don't happen to agree with. However, I don't think one should be abused or mistreated because they are gay. That being said.. I also don't believe there should be special laws for Homosexuals either.

i also don't tolerate gays when they want things that should not be practiced by them. like getting married to each other. but, i also don't condemn and judge them. i suggest that we all pray for them. i've heard of a lot of testimonials by ex-homosexuals. ex, because they repented back to god. they've changed their ways and they are happier now. so, i'm with you in some ways and not in other ways.

just need to correct something... the last paragraph from the previous response.... if there would be one person that or anybody that one owes an explanation why one chooses to be a homosexual, and the only one who could judge them, it's not a priest, a friend, a parent not even the president... it would be and the only one, the one who has the right to judge and question, it would be the creator... and not anybody else
