Should homosexuality be illegal?

I think you're confusing "progressives" with immature people. The example you gave was of people who are quite young and not mature about these sorts of things. As a lesbian I would HATE it if anyone ever outted me in an introduction. It is my choice to come out to someone and if I'm just meeting them I may not want to. Or perhaps this gay friend has a hard time coming out to new people and has asked her to just blurt it out for him to sort of rip the bandaid off. We don't really know. My guess is that it was just a case of young immature people. They aren't really doing any harm, they're just exploring their thoughts and opinions but not in an adult way yet.

I agree, the original post also showed much annoyance, the young lady in question was called "Retarded" in the original post, I have had similar Introductions in the past and sort of have found such introductions amusing in an odd sort of way, nothing to get angry about.
Maybe quietly talk to that person and advise them a bit.

 

They are, because adults are buying into it. Politicians, also. It's the Youth Culture flavour du jour, and sells like hotcakes to anyone who feels a need to signal their virtue.

 

That's it, exactly. The ones with white guilt. I've seen and experienced this sooo many times in 25 years of marriage to a black man. Tossers want to be associated with us for the "I hang out with non-whites" kudos. I see exactly the same drivers in the SJWs and their rainbow flag waving.

 

If your answer to a question depends on whether or not you adhere to a non-falsifiable belief system, then to find the correct answer you must ask yourself how you'd answer if you didn't believe in that non-falsifiable belief system.

 

But the problem with "ignoring race" is the assumption that everyone can afford this privilege. White parents don't need to teach their children about racism, for instance. If your black daughter comes off the bus and asks why her friend's father called her the N-word and what that word means, you'll need to sit her down and have a conversation that a parent of a white child will never need to have.

It would be nice if everyone could "ignore race." It would also be nice if everyone could "ignore poverty," wouldn't it? But, to quote Philip K Dick, "Reality is that which doesn't disappear when you stop believing in it."

 

My kids aren't white and I've never had that conversation with them. Is that an American thing?

 

Yes. Racism is still pretty bad in parts of America.

 

Scary.

 

Racism is not only seen in America, Racism is a facet of Bigotry, Bigotry is a multi-headed Monster, has anyone ever heard how they treat children of mixed race in Korea ?

As far as anything being "American" it is important to note; America is a Country founded by immigrants, these immigrants brought customs and traditions with them, and these are what form the basis for "American" customs, a bit of research proves that most Americana has it's root in the Traditions of other Nations, even prejudices and Bigotry.

 

Hello Doctor Who, and as I see with the last season of Doctor Who the English are so much pandering to the Americans.

It is very clear that humans that are gay or lesbian do have a genic incline of being gay or lesbian. If being gay or lesbian is a choice, as some in the right have said. The clear empirical evidence has shown that males are at a higher percentage of being gay as women are at a lower percentage. Even that women are more open to the idea of lesbians then men are for gays. If we study past western history, there is more gay men then lesbian women in history. True, most history past down deal with males more then females. The evidence is there when it was socially accepted and was not accepted as the norm.

True, there can be a number of genes that are past down over the human genic pipeline. But, that scientific evidence will not be discovered by an American.

 

No. Only violating the person or property of another should be illegal. No victim, no crime.

 

Interesting. Australia was founded by immigrants (the same immigrants as those who founded America), but there isn't so much of the black/white thing there. Black isn't really a big thing there. White is, and Arab, and Asian. In practice, Asians and the new African immigrants (Somalis, Sudanese etc) are generally considered superior to whites.

 

Oddly enough, I have travelled the World over, and saw how India's caste system worked, other Countries have similar systems, much of what you relate is just not true, I speak other languages and can attest to the truth, I have ancestry direct from Africa, I know of what I speak.

And white / black / asian ? I was always judged by my actions and character, sometimes my family or roots helped greatly.

 

No idea how that relates to what I said about Australia. The point was the background (founding mix) was the same as American, but they don't have a black/white issue there. If anything, the 'blacks' are generally regarded as superior. Certainly they're economically, professionally, and academically superior.

 

Is that not unsound reasoning ? using Race to quantify or use the term superiority in reference to Race,
when all men and women of all Races are equal ?

How is any one Race superior ?

Either economically, professionally or academically ?

No, this is fundamentally incorrect or flawed, and contradicts the Equality of the Races, No mon ami, you have the mares nest of reasoning.

No Race is superior or inferior, to another Race, People of all Races are equals in every way that counts, as Spiritual human beings, a poor man is neither superior nor inferior to a wealthy man, an unskilled man of hard labor is neither superior nor inferior to a Physician, an Illiterate man is neither superior nor inferior to a college Professor.

Black, White, Asian, Occidental, People of all Races are equals.
