Capitalism and gays : Comments

By John Passant, published 1/8/2008

While accepting the reality of gay relationships, many still hanker for the days when women were for producing babies and homo***uality was a crime.

I wonder if the author has ever seen the figures of the number of so called families that live on welfare, and yet we live in a so called capitalist society.

I know no one who wants homosexuality made a criminal offence as the author suggest. What many object to is the unhealthy perverted lifestyle being presented to our kids as normal.

Runner - what is 'normal'? Birds do it, animals do it, and for all I know even educated fleas do it. People have been doing it since the beginning of recorded history and probably for many generations before that. So in what sense is homosexuality not 'normal'? Just because you don't like it?

Runner,
I reckon there are extremists who would want homosexuality banned. One of those is a regular contributer to this site. Homosexuality would be normal to a homosexual. Just because we don't like something or it goes against our religious beliefs doesn't mean we have to deny this to other people, if it's not interferring with us.
I have neigbours who are gay. I needed their help one day which they gladly gave. I wouldn't have expected to receive that if I had vilified them like some other so called Christians I know.
I was blessed earlier this year when I saw Christians marching in the Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras apologising to the Gays for lack of welcome in the Church. This was greatly received by the Gay people.
The Biblical stand on homosexuality does not apply to me as I am not gay. It is up to Gay Christians how they interpret the Bible's stand on homosexual relationships.

Watch out runner! I love a man who talks butch.

In my yonger days I produced and directed a couple of gay revues,and still keep in contact with some of the performers.

You Know what they say "I'm not Gay but I've been with a few men who are."
Me thinks you prostesth too much what are you afraid of?

I wonder what the author would make of a statistic revealed in the United Kingdom recently where a report found that 25% of Muslim students said that they had little or no respect for gays. The figure was even higher for male Muslim students at 32%. But among non-Muslims, the figure was only 4%.
