CreateDebate is a social debate community built around ideas, discussion and democracy.
If this is your first time checking out a debate, here are some quick tips to help get you started:
Arguments with the highest score are displayed first.
Argument replies (both in favor and in opposition) are displayed below the original argument.
To follow along, you may find it helpful to show and hide the replies displayed below each argument.
To vote for an argument, use these icons:
You have the power to cast exactly one vote (either up or down) for each argument.
Once you vote, the icon will become grayed out and the argument's score will change.
Yes, you can change your vote.
Debate scores, side scores and tag scores are automatically calculated by an algorithm that primarily takes argument scores into account.
All scores are updated in real-time.
To learn more about the CreateDebate scoring system, check out the FAQ.
When you are ready to voice your opinion, use the Add Argument button to create an argument.
If you would like to address an existing argument, use the Support and Dispute link within that argument to create a new reply.
Politically, their agenda is the same as yours. That is, to live in peace with your neighbor, love who you wish, and work for the right to be treated like everybody else.
If you think it’s to turn straight people into raging queens, you need to turn the FOX News off.
Legal protection? How are you guys not protected by the law? Also, we have the First Amendment. People can say what they like, and you don't get to say what others can and can't say about you.
I never said you weren't clear about what you said. I'm saying you can't stop people from saying what they want to say, courtesy of the First Amendment.
You first must differentiate between Gay people and Gay political activism.
Many Gay people, who are not activists, simply want to be treated with respect. Most do not try to flaunt their unnatural sexual orientation onto our culture and our children's minds.
The agenda of Gay activists and the Political Left, is to force their beliefs on all States, twist our majority Christian faith to deny God's word and sanction homosexuality as ok.
They want to use their platform as a political tool to divide Americans purely to garner votes and power.
What this person said in the video seems ok when there is no one to counter his conjecture.
First of all, Biology teaches us all how our bodies are designed. Homosexuality is not only an issue for religious debate, but also one of science and biology.
What this man failed to explain was how rare these supposed committed loving Homosexual relationships are. How many Gay relationships do you know where the two people were committed to each other for their entire lives?
The truth and reality of homosexuality is that unnatural relationships seldom last for life.
Have you noticed how when boys grow up and become men, they no longer fit in well living with their fathers. Men have personalities that do not fit well together. Our logical stubborn personalities must branch out and start our own life with the opposite sex. Men and women are naturally designed to fit together. When we start playing with nature, it usually does not work.
This is why Gay relationships seldom last.
I as a Christian do not judge Gay people for their sins, no more than I judge straight people for their sins.
The Christian Church has no problem with Homosexuals. The problem they have is with Gay activists and the political Left trying to twist our Christian faith to sanction homosexuality as being ordained by God. It will never be.
Yes, you can start your false new age liberal political correct Churches, having Gay pastors, pro abortion pastors, Transgender Pastors,etc. etc.
But you are only kidding yourselves if you truly think God is ok with this.
God is very clear on issues of sin. He loves the sinner, but hates the sin.
What would you think of video's like this of men saying they have attractions to consenting children and only want the Church to respect their feelings? How about feelings for bestiality, or necrophilia, or a host of other unnatural sexual orientations?
They all just want to be understood and accepted by other's, right? The problem with this anything goes mentality, and this unconditional acceptance of everything no matter how messed up it is, is that it destroys our family unit and the fabric of the natural order to life.
When you go down this slippery slope of sanctioning unnatural things, there will be no end to it as we are seeing today.
Here is how I look at these issues.
I always say we should treat all people with respect no matter if they act or look different. But this does not mean sanctioning their lifestyles as being natural.
I say, do not flaunt things in public that are controversial to others.
I say have respect for those who do not agree with your beliefs or orientations, and do not force them to cater controversial events whether it be Gay wedding receptions, KKK conventions, Nazi conventions, etc. etc.
I would never try to force a Gay owned business to cater Church events if he did not want to do so.
Yes, I understand that you think Homosexuality is ok and that you should be able to flaunt it in public, but here is what you must understand....
Our bodies are OBVIOUSLY designed for a man and woman. It is biology!
Have some respect for others who understand this, AND STOP TRYING SANCTION YOUR ORIENTATION AS NORMAL AND NATURAL.
It is no different when you have a problem with Pedophiles telling you that they were born with feelings for children, or people who say they have desires for dead people, or animals, etc. etc.
You know these things are not natural.... correct?
There is a huge difference between respecting people, and sanctioning all things as normal.
Before this Progressive attack on our traditional values, people understood the difference.
Don't get me wrong, I agree that people should never be bullied or beaten for being different, as has been done in the past. But the Left as always never knows when to stop. They must force you to think like them.
It's one thing to respect diversity, and it's another thing to force it down everyone's throats.
I also want you to have equal rights to any job, etc. and free from discrimination.
This does not mean you get to force every State to change their marriage laws just because you want your lifestyle sanctioned as normal by everyone.
Not everyone gets to use their sexual orientations to change all our laws.
We used to have this thing called a democracy where the people in each State decided their own marriage laws. The political correct Gay activists took all Americans to court and forced them all to think as you think.
You are marrying 30+ adults? What the fuck? What drug do you use this time? Hopefully not the same as you allegedly did on that blind man and his dog...
Depends on where you get married, actually. You can't get married at a synagogue, church, mosque, etc. without the church giving you specific permission because it's against their religion, and trying to sue a place of worship for not marrying you and your boyfriend is a violation of the First Amendment.
