anti-gay is really racism
the wave against gay marriages is really a fear of loss of racial identity. most of the anti-gay energy comes from religious groups. members of these religious flocks (flockers) go to their places of spiritual communion and usually see members of their own race. this association of the other-worldly supreme and racial sameness is one and the same as religion being one the last protected bastions of racism. no time is more segregated than sunday morning. now anthropologist have found gay societies (the trans-fly region of borneo for example) where the birth-rate is so low, babies must be stolen to keep keep the numbers base sufficient to maintain that culture. some flockers in some religious groups fear that a gay lifestyle will effect the birth-rate and hence dwindle the number of the elect and cause the forces of satan to win. NEEDLESS TO SAY THE POLITICAL IMPLICATIONS OF A LOSS OF THEIR SACRED HORDES.

3. Yes. Republicans are RACISTS
I got skewered for speaking this truth yesterday, and I don't care if it happens again. The fact is that Republicanism equals racism in every way. Republicans hate - That's what they do. That's why they exist. They must hate to survive. They hate gays, blacks, hispanics, jews, asians, liberals, foreigners, and anything that isn't evil. They are in the business of hatred, and in America today, business is good.

10. Suspicious...
Edited on Fri Jun-18-04 03:16 PM by Sean138
I agree with you. It seems a lot of posters on this site either ignore or flat out deny that racism still exists and that it's a huge problem. Why is that?

My theory is that a lot of them really are a bunch of no-good freepers.

That's what I like best about race-related posts...the freepers on this site out themselves.

5. Ridiculous
homosexuality has nothing to do with the birth rate.

Gays do not "steal babies".

6. There are a lot of Churches in Houston that are very mixed....
racially. In fact most are mixed...espcially Catholics(they also have gays). I think that is a bad sterotype to promote that churches are usually segregated....at least in Houston I know its not true for the most part.

7. Racism...no....bigotry...yes!
Actaully one of the ugliest forms of bigotry to be more precise but the continued changing of the meaning of the word racist or racism only serves to distort it and rob it of its power.

In my opinion the word bigotry should become the more vile of the terms. It covers such a broad spectrum of ugly behavior.

9. how ridiculous
but you are partially right. The logical extension is that some people think that if "it's okay to be gay" then people all over the world are going to suddenly decide that they are attracted to the same sex. It's INSANE but some people really think that it's a choice.

12. Sorry, but this sounds like an urban legend to me
What exactly is a "gay society" anyway? Sure, I've heard of societies that engage in ritualistic homosexual acts, but never any that would exclude heterosexual behavior.

Sounds like pseudo-scientific anti-gay propaganda.
