    Sure there is racism, anyone who sees the news has seen the “no whites allowed” safe spaces etc from democrats. There might even be a gay only school in NYC. They won’t last and they won’t be widespread.

    I wrote the vast majority of schools will be fine. There are always outliers. But it’s local control, and when a community sees its students suck in life because they wanted their school to be ultra woke or some other bs they will change.

    It’s a simple item but it requires high level thinking. It does not matter who the specific person is or what their specific beliefs are, all that matters is the person and the church have antithetical beliefs (that means their beliefs are diametrically opposed, incompatible). Too fast? Read it again.

    Speculate on why that person would join that church. It’s not hard.

    No, actually you didn't. Sociopathy is not genetic

    I DID read the article I posted, you claim it's only opinion but show no reason to back that claim and the article you linked to has a pay wall.

    False, therefore anything after is fiction based.

    I didn’t say it was, learn to read.

    your arguement for homosexuality applies equally to sociopathy, just replace homosexuality with sociopath.

    So do you claim sociopathy is normal and to be encouraged and protected?

    I read your article, it’s opinion with no fact. It’s hypothesis not theory (that’s the scientific method.

    Sorry about the paywall. Look up Paul Mchugh, you’ll have to skip the usual “phobic” BS articles that nuts spew out about anyone that contradicts the Tran religion.

    I have listed several reasons.
    It’s ironic to see anyone sit here and say it requires “high level thinking” and then fail to acknowledge any nuance or thought outside what narrative they are trying to push.

    If you think people are that basic and linear where they will fit into this box your have built then you have obviously never studied even basic human psychology in university… not all of them are brainwashed into being so easily labeled but I know that is too complex a thought to understand.

    Sad, but understandable seeing your beliefs.

    I accept your tacit surrender and admission your entire position is unsound. You can stop dodging we all see through it.

    One is classified as a disorder under the DSM because it has a high chance to cause trauma and is a disconnect between the world — the other isn’t.

    They would have to be synonymous to be able to be swapped with each other.

    Let me give you an example:
    “So do you you claim pedophilia is normal and to be encouraged and protected? Swap out religious with pedophilia.” While the two may seem related to some they are not similar.

    Yes, I have surrendered trying to identify the desires of your made up person.

    We are not in your church. That isn’t going to fly here

    Nope, every arguement you made for homosexuality applies equally to sociopathy, just replace homosexuality with sociopathy.

    No, you're argument is that if both are genetic (I CAN read) and that if homosexuality is normal than why isn't sociopathy. False equivalence.

    In the medical would it does not — one is classified as a disorder in the DSM and the other is not.

    Do you believe if you just assert something over and over again it becomes fact? We are not in bible school, that’s not how this works.

    When you can make a real world example maybe we can agree on the terms, as of now your hypothetical and intertwined desires are irrelevant.

    WRONG!! I'll repeat.

    My arguement is that there is NO physical cause for homosexuality, not anatomical, evolutionary, chemical, genetic. In fact, homosexuality requires gay men to use their anatomical parts in ways they were never designed. If a professional examined 1,000 homosexuals who died of natural causes, he would conclude they were all heterosexual and that humans were heterosexual. Homosexuality is all mental.

    Since thats all true, you argue that because homosexuality occurs, it should be accepted. With that arguement, sociopathy occurs, there is no physical indication or cause for it, and therefore sociopathy should be considered normal and encouraged.

    Game set match.

    Homosexuality ought to be discouraged to children unless you believe there's no environmental component to a person identifying as gay. The reason is obvious, gays have a much more difficult time achieving happiness. How could they not? It's like trying to shoot a basketball into a 1/2 sized rim. I want my kids to have the best chance possible to live a happy and fulfilling life. In fact, it's the only thing I want for them. So, I try to shield them from homosexual materials to the greatest extent possible. When it does come up, letting them know that it is absolutely NOT normal. The gay life style leads to depression and suicide at a much higher rate than a hetero life.

    As I said before, do you feel that if you repeat something enough times it becomes true? That might work at your church but isn’t going to fly anywhere else. I’ll let you have the last word as I would hate for you to walk away with nothing.

    The issue here is that you are wanting to ban discussion of something based on this theory of yours that since it is “mental” and not “normal” it is ok to discriminate against it. Ignoring the fact that is is completely natural and has existed in virtually every society in human history.

    You have no issues with a non-consensual heterosexual kiss and numerous issues with human / animal relations in children’s books — not to mention inanimate object relationships and religious characters (people that believe in the supernatural with no basis in reality—completely unnatural) but you draw the line with a gay character. Interesting


    You say “game set match” — what game do you think you are playing?

    FFS.....no body argued that there is a physical cause for homosexuality. Evolution could be but that's not a physical trait. Chemical is not physical. Genetics are not physical. They ARE part of your physical being and determine your physical attributes.....but ALSO your mental makeup.
    If a professional examined 1000 (put your mental disorder here......homosexuality is NOT one) who died of natural causes he would conclude nothing of their mental condition. Why.....they don't look for that. They don't care. You say homosexuality is mental....there is no proof of that AND
    "The American Psychiatric Association and the American Psychological Association have suggested for many years now that there is significant empirical evidence supporting the claim that homosexuality is a normal variant of human sexual orientation as opposed to a mental disorder."
    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4771012/
    So that point your making is irrelevant
    As shown above.....it's not true
    It should
    A total leap devoid of logic.....which is shown above.

    So you do what there to be discussion and inclusion of gay characters? Strange seeing that you have called it grooming (which is strange because that’s the only way religion is perpetuated) and indoctrinating? And that one’s that do it should go bankrupt?

    Say yes and I will gladly take back my statement.

    I don’t think discussion of mental health should be banned or frowned upon. It is an important aspect of human well being so it should absolutely be discussed.

    So should all books be banned then? Yes, you are so upset about them but never mention them until confronted with it yet you participate in most gay threads.

    But I guess that’s what you people do — cherry pick, from religious principles to social issues.

    I find it laughable that someone that believes in a sky daddy is calling anyone else a liar. It would be funny if not so pathetic.

    I have already said I will gladly retract my statement if you will say you do not agree with gay characters being banned in children’s books.

    Shouldn’t be too difficult if it’s a “lie”
