Hmmm, that outta draw some fire from a few in here...Wow, how'd we move onto this now?
We moved onto this because this is where this conversation leads. Antigay people have absolutely no leg to stand on to defend their bigotry. The only thing they have to fall back on is morality. So where you derive your morality becomes an issue. If someone can give one reason why they’re antigay other than, “Oh, it makes me feel uncomfortable,” or “The Bible says…,” then we have a discussion. Otherwise there’s no real discussion because your discomfort is your own personal problem and the Bible is certainly no source of morality.

Aparently you haven't been following the thread along very well, so you fall back on the popular(and fallacious) assumption that opposition to homosexuality is generally religious... It seems to be, you are deliberately trying to invoke ire in the religious among us. You can defend your position without stooping to such a level, IMO.
But anyway, I think this thread has run its course for me. Goodnight all!!!!!!
Somehow I don't think the gay community would appreciate being indirectly likened to incest and bestiality. Seriously guys. How bad do you really need to prove a point to someone hundreds of miles away. Is it really going to change things that much? Like it or not, there are homosexuals in the world and unless you're in the government, you'd be hard pressed to make a significant dent in their lives. It's quite clear at this point in the threat that nobody's backing down and nobody seems to be pissed enough to threaten to leave the boards like in the old days. Everyone needs to chill out and go have a beer.
It really amazes me how upset people get, on both sides of this fence. Why can't people just state their case, do it in a professional, courtious way, and listen to opposing viewpoints? Where does all the anger come from? The low blows? The wierd, off color, and off topic revelations?
As many assumed up front, this type of discussion always seems to end up in the same place...the fucking gutter!

Be careful of making too many assumptions...cos "assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups".

Writers are a rowdy bunch. Not sure why anyone thought they'd be better suited for serious debates.

This from the girl who’s only way to defend her bigotry is to lump homosexuality with pedophilia. You fall under the “Oh, it makes me feel uncomfortable” category. I hope you get the irony here.
I try to avoid you JamminGirl because I think you’re nothing but a troublemaker here at this site. You have all of ten pages of work to show and spend the bulk of your time starting and fueling arguments.
This thread ran its course a long time ago; about the time you started posting.

Sometimes when people dislike reviews of their scripts they'll hold onto animosity towards a reviewer. I've learned that awhile now so I understand your feelings towards me. In terms of the "lumping", if you try to detatch your emotions and look at it from a logical perspective, how can you not see similarity in all the sexual subsets? How can you not recognize the fluidity of sexuality? What makes one fringe, homosexuality, more nobel than another? If I claim to be born homosexual, what would prevent you from claiming to be born to have sexual attraction to people under 16? What would make my propensity be above yours?
btw, you have no idea as to whether I feel uncomfortable or not around homosexuality. I live in Toronto. Don't assume...
