The Bible is against it so people wanna stay Christian, but it’s good to accept people for who they are. That’s mostly what gay is

AMEN!

It also says that man and woman were made specifically to love each other and to reproduce together so gay marriage wouldn’t work if trying to have a family

Even though it does

Only if adoption is involved bc biological males can't have children and females can't have them if a male isn't involved

Yes, thats how biology works. Does that mean we can’t accept gay people? NO

if by "accept" everyone means to simply shut up and accept them s3xualizing our entertainment and accepting biological males in women's bathrooms, then yes.
I'm Christian. I can be friends with gay people and be cool, but I can't lie to them and say the Bible is okay with it, because as someone who believes in heaven and hell, that would be a disservice to them.
I have no problem with "accepting" people for what they want to do. But when gay people say they want to be accepted, they often mean they want you to shut up about everything if it makes them feel slightly insecure. You're not allowed to criticize anything they do or you're being homophobic (just like you can't criticize any of Maxine Waters or Barack Obama's policies without automatically being racist). You can't even warn a young teen of the dangers and potential health complications of getting a trans surgery, or you're a transphobe (even if you're ex-transgender yourself!). However, they can feel free to crap on your religion in your face and no one will care about it.
"Acceptance" has become a new code word for "shut up, we don't want to hear your opinions." It means "Sit down and be submissive while we take over everything. You show us love and never say anything we don't like, while we constantly tell you to go F yourself and stop existing because your existence is making us uncomfortable. And you're going to watch us do all this and be happy with it, or else." And it only applies to specific protected people groups.
And this definition of acceptance can go F itself.

I’m not saying that you have to sit down and shut up, I’m just saying that there is nowhere in the bible that says “being gay is wrong”

Also the gays are not going to ‘take over everything.’ Being homosexual does not automatically make you on a quest for world domination. Not only that, but your existence may make gay people uncomfortable, but Imma be real honest with you dawg, it makes strait people uncomfortable too.

Someone said they were gonna take over the world?

Oh that’s who said it yea I didn’t read it

Funguy said it in their 8 mile long rant

no

The narcissists try to get in power and give the community a bad look by antagonizing the whole world for not "being accepting" which can mean so much as "can you not try to reenact sex scenes in public?" The narcissists are the ones at Disney telling everyone to go F themselves and getting in fisticuffs with governors over a bill they didn't read or understand and just heard a tainted story from CNN. The narcissists are the ones who were so desperate to smear Sound of Freedom as an alt right conspiracy theory when there were no politics in the movie at all - proving that they themselves are fine with literal pedophilia. The narcissists are the ones who encourage everyone in the community to get "traumatized" by the littlest events imaginable - while calling grown men whiners for actually not getting any love in life or even surviving painful events.

As I said before, the whole community is not like this.

I never said that being homosexual makes people on a quest for world domination. However our music industry and television have been absolutely polluted with oversexualization, even with minors. Disney and Netflix can't even make a TV show without having some levels of sexualization anymore, and it's even rarer to find something that doesn't have gay people in it. These virtue signalers took over all our entertainment and think its their job to preach to us about what they think we should think with our brains, which fails the point of entertainment altogether. If you go to a Christian film, you're going to a film that is specifically targeted for a Christian audience. Atheists are free to watch it if they choose, but they do not have to if they don't, so if they hate that kind of movie, no one is forcing them to see it. But this is Disney and Netflix and Hulu and HBO and pretty much everyone in the mainstream, buying every single successful IP we grew up loving, basically putting "go F yourself if you disagree with us" in everything they make, and calling us bigots for not accepting it.
The gay community as a whole is not responsible for this - it's these activists who think the whole damn world revolves around how gay they are, and damn you if you don't want to hear about it everywhere you go. They do this in the classroom, some do it at work, and entertainment has been completely overtaken by narcissists like this.
Thats what I was talking about when I said they were taking over our entertainment. Nothing more. There are gay people I've seen on youtube that think entertainment has gone too far. I even know gay people who are annoyed with how much entertainment has been polluted with gay sexualization, like anything Jojo Siwa has been doing recently for example, and she's popular among kids. I even watch a trans youtuber who is disgusted by oversexualization of minors. The whole community isn't like this.

I honestly agree everything is way too sexualized, that stuff is in literally everything. It’s annoying

No one is holding you at gunpoint and saying “WATCH THE DAMN DISNEY MOVIE”

Yes it does, in both 1 Timothy 1:8-11 and 1 Corinthians 6:9-11

you're right, no one is forcing you at gunpoint to watch Disney. That's why I don't. But it's annoying that all mainstream entertainment is being polluted with progressive BS so there's literally nothing to enjoy anymore unless you go watch K-dramas instead. K-dramas are actually well written stories. Our stories nowadays include the likes of Willow (which was so bad that Disney removed it), Velma (which somehow just premiered Season 2 despite how literally no one liked Season 1 - not even the far-left), Antman 3 (which was just a failure at storytelling even without all the political BS [and i was obsessed with the MCU]), LOTR: Rings of Power, She-Hulk, and many more things.

Good stuff does exist, but it's so rare now that it's hard to come by.

I understand that disney sucks because all the make is remakes and sequels, but progressive is a good thing. The root word of progressive is progress, and progress is good.

What is this argument even about anymore? It went from being gay, to the Bible, to Disney?

Actually, progressive is not a good thing. the one big flaw with progress is that you are pushing the world to a place no one has ever seen before, and you expect it to result in clear skies. The word "progressive" has been hijacked by people who are simply trying to push oversexualization and the dumbing down of our people. At the rate we're going, in 50 years, we'll have kids that "understand complex gender realities" at 4 years old, but will still not be able to do basic addition or point to a country on a map at age 25. Progressivism has been hijacked by communists who are actively trying to make our people unintelligent so we'll fall for their schemes. Cause they use the same schemes Hitler did. And many progressives would happily raise their hand if asked if they would stand up to Hitler's evil in Nazi Germany. However, in the 60s, there was a school with kids that thought this very thing, so the teacher ran an experiment called The Wave to disprove it, and the students got so tied into it, it was actually causing violence. Thus he proved his point. (He had to end it bc it went way farther than even he intended). People as a crowd are a lot easier to manipulate than we care to admit.
Idgaf about traditionalism either, but I think it's better than progressivism. Because we know it worked for some people. Progressive values are going to blow up for everyone because the whole victim pole thing is going to have people clamoring for pity at the expense of others. Feminism doesn't even give a damn about women anymore.
Progressivism is everything wrong with our culture in the 2020s. Everyone is easily offended, can't take jokes, can't handle small words (but make fun of others for the very same thing), cant sometimes handle someone looking at them a certain way, and basically can't handle life in general but demands life and the world succumb to their demands instead of growing up and adapting to life. Society 10 years ago was much better than the hellhole the world has become now.

Leviticus 18,22

That can be interpreted as saying same sex r*pe is wrong, but not condemning normal relationships. Also, it only talks about intercourse, not whether or not a non sexual relationship is wrong. Even if it is interpreted as “being gay is wrong” the bible also says love thy neighbor. That also includes your gay neighbor.

Well yea it could be interrupted as r*pe but since it doesn’t say that and it instead just says it’s wrong I’m gonna assume that’s what it means. And about loving your neighbor as yourself it never says hate gay people, it just says being gay is wrong and to not do it.

Pretty sure it’s not saying hate gay people and more so trying to teach people not to be gay

LMAO

Feels like some context is missing that would very definitely make your point correct and normal and very cool.

The Bible is the Christian holy book

wdym by context

As a trans person, *some* of us don't like hearing about the side affects of the surgeries we're looking into because we are fully aware of them and are okay with the risks. Acceptance doesn't mean shut up, unless by your version of acceptance you mean to shout opinions about other people's choices. Nobody said it was okay to degrade your religion, as it is your personal choice. When queer people say they want to be accepted, they mean they don't want to be told they're going to hell for something they can't control. They mean they don't want to be physically endangered by being who they are. Also, nobody should be telling anyone to f or unalive themselves, and we probably shouldn't categorize people by the worst ones of the group. Sorry for replying to a rant with a rant, but really, try thinking before telling a gay or trans person those things, because they probably already have been told these things.

I'm not categorizing ppl by the worst ones. These "worst ones" are the ones getting into positions of power and taking over entertainment like Disney. I will not assume someone has these characteristics upon meeting them just because they're gay or trans.

Well if you're aware of the risks and are fine with it, nobody should be stopping you (unless you're a minor). Personally i think minors are easy to manipulate through peer pressure and emotions (for example, if a gender affirming therapist is kinder to you than your own parents, you may begin to think that the therapist is more trustworthy and loving than your parents, even if he completely is there to use you for sexual experimentation like John Mooney did with many children). I don't mean this to be insulting to children, but they're not hard to take advantage of. Trans issues aside, several child stars have been r@ped completely without their parents' knowledge bc they either can't stand up to the abuser or they think he is friendly and so if he doesn't want their parents to know about 'a little secret, they'll keep it from their parents.

If you don't want to hear about the risks knowing what they are, that's fine, but conversation shouldn't be shut down for people who are walking into it unaware of the risks. Because many people have walked in unaware and end up hating life more than ever - and they're ignored in polls showing how beneficial trans surgeries are for people (and why wouldn't they be? The pharmacy makes bank everytime someone gets a surgery. They got someone who has to come back and pay them for life, unless they die early.)
I would argue if you don't want to hear about the risks, you're likely not really okay with them and are just suppressing it.

Plenty of people are completely okay with trashing you for being religious or "being dumb enough to believe in a God" in your face. If someone said "you're dumb enough to be gay" an outrage would burst, but it's acceptable to discriminate against religious ppl

Well, about the going to hell, my question about that is that if you were on a path to hell and didn't know, would you want ppl to warn you about it or would you want to wake up in hell unexpectedly? Bc to a religious person, to not warn someone of this is to subject them to that very fate, and that is its own level of hatred. You don't have to make your entire existence about how wrong the person is for doing something you don't agree with (those Christians are annoying af) but you should also not be a coward about it. It's important to do this in love, which many don't know how to do.

Isn't trans surgery physical endangerment bc of the health risks and potential pain involved as a result?

It is true that bad people can be in positions of power, but sometimes you can avoid these people, not always, but sometimes. When I said that some transgender people don't like hearing about it, I did not intend to suggest all. I agree that children and minors should be especially careful with these things, as you mentioned, the John Mooney case. Apologies about any atheists/agonistics hating on your religion, as they usually are just insecure or have some sort of weird connection to it. I understand that you are supposed to warn people about going to hell and all of those things, but some people get upset by this. I feel like I am one of these people to be quite honest, but this is likely because its not very fun being told you're going to be literally tortured for all of eternity for something you can't control. I usually associate people that warn me about going to hell with the Christians that make your entire life about one thing, because that's all I really ever experienced.Gender affirming surgery can be dangerous, but so is every other surgery. There isn't very many surgical procedures that can be done without physical risk or potential pain. However, to many, its completely worth it and they'd rather do that then have to live with what they have. It probably sounds ridiculous if you haven't lived through it, so I understand how it doesn't make sense. Many of the people that get gender affirming surgeries and regret them end up identifying as something else, which is why personally, I think you should be completely sure you won't regret your choice.

Side note: Holy f**k I've become a keyboard warrior

Bro I’m keyboard warrioring for the same point you are, and I’m not even LGBTQ+

Can everyone just shut up about this topic and stop posting essays? I'm sick of reading. and some of the people here did not come here to read about religion. I don't care about your guys religion and what you guys think so just stop arguing on a literal meme site comment section.

Also, gay people don’t go to hell because Jesus forgives EVERY Christian. If you are going to quote the bible, you should at least know what it’s about. And yes, trans surgery has risks, but so does any surgery. I read about someone who died from getting their tonsils removed. (They choked on their own blood.)

Jesus forgives Christians but that doesn't mean that one should not repent for what they did wrong. A habitual murderer can become Christian, but if he does not quit his habit of murdering, he isn't in a right relationship with Jesus (this is an extreme example, but it's just meant to show that you can't go about a relationship with God with the thought process of "i'm sinful, but I don't care because Jesus will forgive me anyway." God forgives us because we are not perfect, but He doesn't tolerate us completely disregarding Him. And this is hard for any person to accept, not just gay people. tbh I don't really like that myself, not for gay reasons but for other reasons.

Yes, every surgery has risks but most are not destructive to health. Trans surgeries have messed up people's immune systems for life, and made them likely to get cancer by 30. It's reduced people's lifespans at a ridiculous rate. These are risks that should not just be ignored and not told to people before they actually get a procedure. Because I am the type of person that would refuse any treatments that had that as a potential risk, and I'm not the only one. I've even seen people on TikTok feel like they'd been deceived because they were assured trans surgeries were safe and assuring, and now they have to pay mass sums of the money they earn on medications for life, and they don't feel great physcially, and they feel lied to because they went in thinking this was safe and it wasn't. And this is on TikTok of all places.

While I think you did make an excellent point with the whole “ I would argue if you don't want to hear about the risks, you're likely not really okay with them and are just suppressing it.” thing, I don’t agree that Christianity and Homosexuality can’t coexist. Just because you are gay doesn’t mean you don’t believe in God, and just because you believe in God doesn’t mean you can’t be gay. In fact, I even understand if someone is an atheist. Me personally, I am a Christian, but I won’t treat someone differently or look down on someone who is not a Christian. I am a firm believer that you believe in what you believe in, and you love who you love, and as long as you aren’t harming anyone else, that is perfectly acceptable.

I do think you can believe in God and be gay. I just think God doesn't approve of it and if you want to grow closer to Him, you should repent for it. I don't hate people for being gay or having different opinions. (I get annoyed if people treat you like garbage because they don't like your opinion - and this includes Christians). I also don't treat people differently either for not being Christian or not having my opinions (I may not have the same humor around them, but I don't even have my natural humor around other Christians because they also wouldn't like it). I will want to help others find God, but I'm not an a--hole to other people about it.

To be honest, I feel like the term "being gay" is a harmful term because it absolves any action from it and just refers to it as a "condition", which makes it easy to not take any responsibility for your actions and also accuse people who don't agree with your actions of hating you instead of hating your actions. For example, saying that "being a minor-attracted person (MAP) doesn't mean so and so" would get a much different reaction. Because people can choose not to sleep with minors, and we all know it (except apparently Gavin Newsom). I think a better term would be "having same-sex attraction". Sometimes Christians come out in therapy as struggling with same-sex attraction. That is a much better way to go about it than just saying "I'm gay. Accept me or you hate me." You can love your kid even if he becomes a robber, despite the fact that he may feel that you confronting him for being a robber means you hate him because he is a robber. Using a "to-be" verb there is very unfair to the people having same-sex attraction because it gives them the delusion that they cannot control it, which is unfair because of what tends to cause it. The p0rn industry is extremely rampant in the gay community and studies have shown that people watching gay p0rn or trans p0rn are far more likely to have same-sex attraction or want to become trans. This is why the entertainment industry wants to push p0rn and sexual content to minors - because if they get addicted from youth, it's even harder to break the addiction, and they now have no reason to realize that the addiction is not one and the same with their very being. That is detrimental to one's character.
Nobody who has any self respect is proud of watching p0rn, but the people producing our entertainment really want to change that and make it normal. It is like an addictive drug that wastes hours of your time and makes people much hornier and desperate for s3x. Many abuse cases can be tied back to p0rn addictions.
Again, this is not said out of condemnation, but concern. P0rn is destroying our culture, and recovering from it takes a lot of effort, just like drug recovery. If p0rn was a simple preference, I wouldn't talk about it like this, but since it is a controlling mental drug that people cannot easily break away from, I do NOT think this should be being pushed to more and more people, especially minors, who just want to do whatever they think is cool at the moment and don't think long term.

I’m not reading all of that

Yeah I know

O sorry just understood wut you were saying

what did that comment say lol

funguy here is what you should know

yes, it is important to love others. But to deliberately encourage wrong pathways that stray from God? That's not love - that's hate. God Himself doesn't condone this - as He punishes us in life when we are in the wrong and gives us hardships to teach us to grow stronger and closer to Him.

I don't care about what god thinks love is love. Why doesn't god just smite me right now?

ik

PREACH! I'm all for accepting and not participating!

I just got deja vu
