    It is just simple bigotry and that form of fallacy, to believe solving for simple poverty and Capitalism's, capital effects regarding its natural rate of unemployment won't enable us to lower Taxes on Incomes of real Persons in our republic, due to that investment in the general welfare.

    It may not be synonymous but it sure is prevelant.

    But it's not natural in the sense that its healthy or biological.

    Then should gay bakers be forced to write "one man and one woman only" on their cakes?

    I'm not interfering. I'm just pointing that the lifestyle someone might live is unhealthy and wrong.
    If I don't see a parachute or bungee cords strapped to him then I'm interfering.
    Living a gay life takes years off of you statistically. It's the same reason why you might want to stop people from smoking.
    And so did the gay bakers in the video I posted. It's a double standard.

    And really, that prevalence is hardly your concern.

    Unwanted pregnancies are a massively BIG DEAL... hardly enough attention goes into preventing those. And my of my... if we could reduce DIVORCE by just 25%, that would probably improve a large number of lives.

    Even so, the anti-gay nonsense just needs to cease. It's certainly being tolerated a lot less... and that's a good thing.

    Why do you lie, how is it unhealthy? You'll say STD or Aids or something stupid. STDs are just as prevalent in heteros.
    And how dumb to write it's not biological. Of course it's biological. How the heck to you think they were born that way. Try to get out of the 1800s at least.

    No you are not. And no one needs you to point out what might or might not be anything. None of your damn business.

    Of course you are, but what that has to do with gay still isn't answered.

    Then don't live the gay lifestyle if you don't want to shorten your life. But it's still not you business. NONE.
    Are you bigoted against smokers?

    How? Didn't see the video.

    Though I am a firm supporter of SSM, having a gay brother in law (well not quite married yet but close enough) and a gay team leader- I find your last questions have nothing to do with bigotry. Being opposed of something is not always the same as being against it.

    I'm against terrorism and I won't stand for it. I'll do everything in my power to make sure terrorism ends.

    If this person opposes SSM for practical religious reasons...then fine. So long as they aren't screaming "I hate gays" at some klan rally...nothing wrong with being opposed.

    The poster stated he does not like the gay life style, I was merely trying to find out why. His motive for the bigotry.

    Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM)a represent approximately 2% of the United States population, yet are the population most severely affected by HIV.
    •In 2013, in the United States, gay and bisexual men accounted for 81% (30,689) of the 37,887 estimated HIV diagnoses among all males aged 13 years and older and 65% of the 47,352 estimated diagnoses among all persons receiving an HIV diagnosis that year.

    Which has no impact on you. Any more than a smoker impact your life, if you're a non smoker.

    And the HIV rate among homosexual women?

    Almost nil.

    Much lower than among straight men or women.

    I believe it likely has to do with how social conservatives and religious conservatives fantasize about homosexuals, but it's not really ever been defined by them.

    From general context over the years, I think conservatives use that term to include other factors like multiple partners (which tends to increase the incidence of STD). Oddly enough, those same conservatives will fight against same-sex marriage (which one would expect to reduce much of the "gay lifestyle" behavior that concerns them so). Maybe there are some conservatives on the forum who can better define what they mean by "gay lifestyle."

    Could be, although there are just as many people in the 'straight lifestyle' who screw around with all kinds of different partners.

    Why take issue with homosexuals for things that are also associated with heterosexuals? Seems biased to me. Why make it an argument against homosexuality when the argument should be for safe sex as STD's effect gays and straight people?

    STD's are the problem and safe sex or abstenence is the solution no matter if a person is straight or gay.

    Exactly, but it's all about spin. When you label it as the "gay lifestyle" the reader equates all those STDs with "being gay."
