i am so mad at this pic

GAYS SHOULDNT BE ABLE TO ADOPT…NO KID WANTS GAY PARENTS…

hannibal for once i agree ….my mom went both ways and i got teased as a kid…..now for a gay couple to adopt me i got two strikes against me…..i don’t think it’s fair to the kids….

Gay people should not be allowed to adopt because of the emotional trauma that it will cause a child. That child will be teased constantly for having same sex parents. It is an abomination.

I dont see anything wrong with this except the picture. Their sexuality shouldnt matter, as long as they are willing to provide financial and emotional care for the child. Kids just want a home, everything else is secondary. There are parents who have children they dont take care of, nor do they want, it makes sense to allow kids to be in a home where they’re wanted.

LMAO…this is one of the ugliest pics I ever seen…LMAO!

I dunno about this…. maybe if they were more attractive….. lol on the real though.. I don’t if the kids are ready for that kind of maturity…. i dunno

did you read that they are his little brothers. why should anyone else take care of them.

HEL-LO! uh, people…i think we are all missing the big picture here, and it is not about gays adopting kids…its about outlawing godd%@n MULLETS nationwide!!! i mean wtf??? Mullets, seriously…no kid should be subjected to that. come on.

I def think Gays should not be able to adopt. Studies have shown that it children from gay partnerships have more emotional problems, see domestic violence more, and also have problems with gender association. DEF a no no. In atime for more Black men to step up, all we need is studs, and shems trying to raise our Black Men. Black Men Stand UP and DO YOUR DAMN JOB!!!

LMAO TO THE PIC!!! I don’t know to say about this issue. You have hetero relationships that disfunc. and they shouldn’t be raising kids. I have a son who has friends that have two mommies. Would their relationship rub off on the kids, who’s the say the kid’s going to be gay if the parents are. If they are able to love, nurture and care for the kids, then why not, cause I’m not going to adopt them. I rather for the kids to be stable and loved vs them being corrupt, having feelings of abandonment, and breaking into my damn car at 4 in the morning, then me beating the hell outta em…. I’m just sayin

I dont see everyone else volunteering to adopt children, so why not. As long as a child is safe and cared for I dont care. There are wayyyy too many children that are with their biological parents and are subjected to indecent and destructive things on a daily basis. I just want children to find a good home and if a good home is with a gay couple or an interracial couple or whatever..i dont care.

that picture is hilarious.

My personal opinion is that most gay are some sick mofos and don’t need to adopt a child. However if they can provide a good home to an unwanted child, it may be in the best interest of the child to have some sort of family. But if those freeky fridays start to corrupt the child in any way, make them rot in jail. The same goes for hetrosexual parents.

Why should it matter if the couple is gay or heterosexual? do u know how many kids out there are being abused and mistreated or the emotional distress they’ll go thru being in the foster care system…if there are loving parents out there who want to give a child a happy, loving home then their sexual orientation should not be in question. As far as being teased, kids are gonna get teased no matter what…kids will find things to tease kids about just because its all about the dozens, making jokes…i did it as a kid, the thing is how u raise ur kids to deal with things like that…if i was a kid and it came down to put me with gay couple or some abusive person guess what i’d take a gay couple anyday!

Gays are born, not made, so there’s no reason they shouldn’t be allowed to adopt. A kid is lucky to have two good parents, whatever the gender. Every kid gets teased about something, so suck it up. That’s part of growing up and building character.

HOWEVER, I draw the line at people with mullets adopting: should be outlawed.

PLASTIC!!!

LMAO@ that title AND that pic….

those 2 people are fugly as hell! gay or not GD they ugly!!!

@ Oshie’s first post…. YOU KNOW WHY! lol

@ Athena, omg that’s hysterical.

_______________________________________-

This is the guy’s two little brothers for God sakes. Who cares if he’s gay. It’s family. The Florida court system is screwed up if they are actually taking the boys brothers’ sexuality into question as proof he wouldn’t be a good guardian. Give me a f’kn break. IT’S FAMILY.

Who the hell is some judge to say what’s morally right and wrong… by who’s standards???

i D0NT THiNK THE C0UPLE iN THAT PiC SHUd EVEN BE ALLOWEd T0 ADOPt A ROCk…

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, WTF IS IN THAT PICTURE. almost pissed my daym self and had a heart attack.

@ blaq

200% cosign girl.

lol@Athena..u know Opie is HOT about this gay news.

anonymous says…

OH MY!! They scare me

Daywalker…

Hello, ummm are they Vampires?

Did anyone speak of the homo-mullet? I wonder how they use them….

The one problem I have with this is that it is extremely hard for a single parent to adopt.. children who come from single parent homes are considered to have come from “broken” homes; so whats the difference with same sex parents? There is still an absence of one gender representative!!!

It should not matter who wants to adopt a child as long as they love and respect and take care of that child. We have so many heterosexual people ruining kids lives that it makes stupid sense to stop someone from loving a kid just because of their sexual preference. Gays are not pedophiles. So sad.

This is a tough one. One hand I say no, gays should not be allowed to adopt children. For me it’s a moral issue. my reasoning.. If a man will lay down with another man how do I know that, that same man won’t lay down with the little boy he just adopted. I could never allow a gay man to baby sit my son let alone raise one. One the other hand could homophobia simply be another for of discrimination. Are my views judgmental and ignorant? It is said most people fear what we do not understand. Perhaps my ignorance leads me to these conclusions. Is it not better for a child to be loved by a gay man or gay woman than to never be loved? Are we really thing about the best interest of the child?

I see 2 mullets in that pics, but Iam having trouble identifying gender..

Should gays be allowed to adopt, marry?…. No. It’s a matter of biblical principles for me. I’m not perfect by no means, but God says it’s an abomination; therefore, I must adhere to the Book. The problem is people are quick to address this issue as a personal issue, the fact is, it’s a religious issue. Just like fornication, adultery, killing is a sin, relations with the same sex is too. I don’t write the rules… Trust, we all sin, but to “change” what God has written… Can’t do it…

A white lesbian in my building adopted a black little girl. I dont know where the Black mom is but the black dad lives in Harlem and he sees his daughter once or twice amonth but he does not even go get her. THe white lesbian brings the girl t see her father. The lesbian takes very good caree of the girl, nice clothes, braces, money, education. There are plenty gays taking care kids when the straight people are off smoking crack.

sorry for the typos

If you think it’s okay for White People to adopt Black Kids and vice versa, then you should be okay with gay people adopting kids.

It shouldn’t be a religious issue whatsoever.

Church and State, should not mix.

B0SSiP PLASE TAKE THAT PiC D0WN..!!!!

i CANt HELP BUT TO LAFF EVERYTiME i SCROLL PAST iT…

The picture is just ridiculous. LMAO!!!!

This pIcture is worng on SOOOOOOOOOOO Many Levels! I cant stand it ! LMMFAO

Let them adot, there are so many kids out here just looking for soe love, and a place to sleep and feel safe. Kids will get harrassed regardless.

Oh, but it is a religious issue; on our dollar bills with have “In God We Trust”, Our plege of allegiance mentions God… and just recently, religion has been the forefront of our election with abortion issues and who are our leaders religious influences. This country has a “covering”, protection. Our government believes in God, not worhipping animals or idols… If this country allows issues such as gay marriage, gay adoption to prevail; then you will see a slow decline of our society…

“Church and State, should not mix”

Maybe they should….God is everything…he needs to run the State.

my opinion is that gay people should not be allowed to adopt…you don’t have to agree…again, this is MY opinion

LOL @ the mullets. Thought that hairstyle went out with Billy Ray Cyrus and the 80s.

LOL…good food for thought NU.

This is a country where everyone is not a Christian, so stating what it says in the Bible is irrelevant. That is the religion you chose for yourself and should not be placed on anyone else. If you don’t believe in homosexuality fine don’t sleep with ppl of the same sex. America is suppose to be a country free of religious persecution. Its time to end the witch hunt. People are more offended by gay people than they are about murder, fornication, bearing false witness, making an idol of themselves, to convet someones wife or possessions we see these things happening everyday but don’t even bat an eyebrow. They have a thousand people murdered on TV every night and we cheer on the hero, but let a man kiss a man and they are picketing the TV station. It’s not okay for gays to marry but we support the slaughter of thousands of Iraqi’s and Afghans, is it okay because they are not Christians?

As if heterosexuals have done such a great job raising kids..LOL

@blaq and laila and surabi

Thank you!

Ya’ll must live in small closed minded towns cause gays around here have been raising their OWN kids for the longest time. Many of their households are just as nurturing and stable as regular families. They have the disposal incomes and the time to take care these troubled and abused kids who need the extra attention and stable environment.

I followed this story in our paper, and those kids were covered in ring worms and ear infections when they went to live with the gay couple. If not for the gays stepping in, those kids would either be dead, or well on their way to a life of crime and poverty.

Like someone else said, if don’t agree with gays taking these kids, THEN OPEN YOUR OWN DAMN DOOR AND WALLET!!!

I meant raise and eyebrow

As a christian I can’t condone that. God’s words never change no matter how the world wants to change. They may be great parents, but, the Bible has some specific words about that.

I’m more against people looking this crappy than I am of gay people adopting children…

NIK U .. after i saw these ugly fugs i started punching the air like Tre did in Boys in tha hood! but then i had to scrool down to see your face now im alright.. damn you are medicine for the soul lady!

rick james bytch… you are so right and to add to what you said even a damn dogg knows to go to a female dogg and they are animals but you dont see them humping no male dogg unless its a lill puppy coming into his hormones!!

If these folks are good enough to for social services to foster them, to love them and to care for them for years and years, it is hypocritical to then say, they cannot adopt the children they have loved and cared for. It would arguably be best to have every child in foster care go to a permanent home with a mom and a dad, but it is not a perfect world so this cannot always happen. It is far more importatant that these children have the security of a permanent home with parents who love them regardless of their sexual orientation.

Not like Tre!! LMAO!!

Let them adopt. All these straight people ain’t adopting. wtf are you complaining about? The best interest of the child is to be in a caring stable and loving environment. If you’re not going to provide it, then let someone else do it.

I’m sure the Bible has a few words on all this hypocrisy some of you so-called christians are mumbling.

HOLD THE PRESS!!

They are women? Im so confused…..

Lacombe…

Snot came to the tip of my nose…I cant stand you!!

I seriously wonder if there are any believable statistics on what percentage of children raised by gay parents, elect to lead gay lifestyles when they become adults. At the very least, I would imagine that a child’s existence must be very confusing with same sex parents, which completely contradicts the tradition family setup.

“As a matter of fact, many gay individuals dont have children until A. their partner and themselves are financially stable, lets see how many heterosexual couples in our neighborhoods actually wait till they have enough money before they have children. B. gay parents actually really really want their kids and treat them at times even better according to research for example of a 100 parents in canada. ”

This whole portion of the comment is ignorant. Seriously…are you trying to tell us now that gay people are more equipped to raise fvcking children they can’t even have? Is that how things were intended to be? There are studies to show that the children brought up in gay households do have their own DIFFERENT problems so don’t make it out to be utopia in fruity land because it is not. There is more domestic violence reported in gay households than straight so save it.

Condone what you condone but don’t make the natural order of things seem as though they are wrong in favor of your own opinion. No matter how you slice it BIOLOGICALLY with no scientific intervention the only way children are created is by the union of two people of the OPPOSITE sex.

oh here we ago again referencing to that book again lol do not use that as a argument espeacially if ya life is a whole damn sin spectrum, gays deserve the same rights as any other AMERICAN WHO IS BREATHING. who carse what study’s show, and who cares about they r both men we just about 60 years ago were thought of as animals and studys shown that we would pollute society and would be no good to mankind, they didnt even want us to be in the same building as them…. right is right wrong is wrong a human is a humna rather black,white yellow blue fat short homo hetero bi-sex it does not matter our churches are corrupted with god knows what and our goverment has failed us time in and out so has the church ,so im just gonna go with whats fair and right now thats justice for all

______________________________________________

I totally agree with you AGAIN.

Most people are total hypocrites.

I love you Lacombe! Some homo!

What’s up Nikki?

I agree with OSHIE,and Suzzette that was funny! Children can be cruel point blank whether they’ll be teased for having homo parents, for being black, for being white, for being crippled, for being LD,for being nerdy,for wearing non name brand etc… being teased will be the least of their problems if they can’t go home to a descent meal, a warm bed, a structured environment,heat when it’s 10 below,someone to tell about their bully,a shoulder to cry on,a fridge to hang good grades etc… Most prejudice come from being either uninformed or misinformed. Dont let ur blindness keep u from seeing reality.

there are so many unwanted children out there. i think it should be a crime to stand in the way of these children find happy homes. who cares if the parents are gay. there will allways be teasing about something or another. these kids are probably being teased for living in the systems b/c their hetrosexual parents either gave them up or was too stupid to care for them.

RICKjAMES u so have a lot of growing to do. Homesxuality goes way way way back in not just this nations history but history period, these people didnt just pop up and say oh i like boys or girls this “thing” aka homosexuality is as new as black people , chinese etc etc etc they exist and will continue to exist disgusting is your commit and your hate for another human who lives their life as they choose thank god for America and Democracy cus it seems like you would b a hitler type and burn all the homos … ill pray for you and your sick thoughts

Exxon300…

Hi how are you Sir?

Lacombe…

I will go home and watch that this tonight…I have a sleeveless flannel shirt I can watch in….

Who am I to tell MR. & MR. so-and-so what they can or cannot do based on my personal belief system? I do not have that right.

This country was founded on believing ‘these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal’. ALL. No matter your gender, race, sexual preference, or religion.

(looking at the picture and shakes head) all i wanna know who wears the pants in the realationship??? idk im just sayin….

Kimberlee, Although these sins are apparent in America and their are atrocities in every country, the Bible doesn’t change….. Our society is very critical of people who who are adulterers, people have been fired in goverment offices just recently because of marital affairs. There is a standard in this country. Yes, this country accept all religions, but America acknowleges God; No leader of our country past or present has been an Atheist. The majority of this country(even parents, siblings of gays and even some gays) believe that being gay is a sin)… again I don’t make the rules, I just try to follow them. No one is perfect, yes some gays such as Ellen admits she started being gay after being raped. I don’t know why people make those decisions, but I know God doesn’t approve of it. Who are we to question what God has written???

Damn, you could have picked a better picture. They gay couple with matching mullets…LOL!

How is providing a loving home to unwanted children EVER a bad thing? unless you think htat children in the care of the state are better off… NOT.

@The Real Jackson Brothers: Good question! The answer is; as soon as it was announced that 70% of Blacks in Cali voted to ban gay marriages. The backlash here in San Francisco has been profound. The gay community is pissed and they do not attempt to hid their contempt now for the Black community. Normally, I would not give a damn, but last week a gay couple told one of my employees (house cleaners) that you people expect everyone to come to your defense when it is a civil rights issue but you just turned your back on another group who is being treated unfairly…then they proceeded to refuse payment for services rendered. My only recourse is to take them to court. There are plenty more stories like mine. The WAR is apparently on!

_______________________________________________

Ok, Jackson Bros., I guess you are strapped up? Tell me where that leaves all the people who are both GAY and BLACK? You know, they do exist.

Pick your battles wisely, not because you’ll be beat, but because it is the right thing to do.

I’m not going to sit here and say that all gay people are behaving with decorum and doing the right thing, but that does not mean any individual should not either. Human rights are not mutually exclusive.

@ Nikki and Lacombe: You want some french cries? Or how about a Whineken?

for people who are saying the kids will be teased for having gay parents they need to step into the new millenium. people are more open now and will be more open in the future. one thing i will say about some of the gay people who adopt is that they are not just trying to give a loving stable home to little white babies. they are willing to give homes to all children regardless of age or race and that is a wonderful thing. when will the racism and homophobia stop?!

question: isn’t homosexuality largely rampid in the Caucasian races since the beginning of time outright and obviously, wasnt every other culture very opposed or secret with it because it was not accepted…im talking way back, bc, ad type back…..

BG…

Wow…thanks amilli

Lacombe…

St. Pauli Girl

Oshie…

You know YOU make me sick!!

@ rick james

That real nice ideas for the future, but what about the children who are already here, what should happen with them? It’s not a choice of what they would rather have. The children would rather their parents were there and able to take care of them. In the absence of that, they would rather have some parents than none. I have worked with foster children and they don’t care about the sexual orientation, they just want a home.

@Richie…. Paul’s support of slavery has nothing to do with Jesus, who died for all of our sins that we all may be free. I’m sure there were diciples who believed in slavery…. yet again, jesus has made it clear regarding same sex relationships.

@Athena, how do you know what you would want if you were a kids who was either thrown away by your parents or taken away b/c of abuse or neglect? I would think some love and a stable home would be welcomed. do you think it is fun bouncing from foster hoem to foster home going through God know what?

@athena

would you rather have a gay parent or live in a group home. I don’t think people realize it’s not the choice of straight parents or gay parents, it’s a choice of gay parents or no parents.

@ peaches and anyone who can answer

What exactly does the bible and Jesus say about homosexuality? And where are these scriptures found?

PURPPLE

question: isn’t homosexuality largely rampid in the Caucasian races since the beginning of time outright and obviously, wasnt every other culture very opposed or secret with it because it was not accepted…im talking way back, bc, ad type back…..

___________________________________________

No. And the word is “rampant”.

Peaches,

I suggest you got back and read your Bible. Because according to Paul himself, it has EVERYTHING to do with Jesus. And he went so far as to condemn anyone who disagreed as ungodly! READ the scripture, dear.

PS. Jesus didn’t write the Bible, men did. It has also been changed and rewritten numerous times over the years to suit the leadership that was using the church and the common people’s fear of God to control the masses. So while there is a lot of good in the Bible, there is also a lot that has been manipulated and misused. To pick and choose the parts you like vs. the parts you don’t like is like Al Quada interpreting the Quraan. It’s not right. Don’t do it.

I agree with Hannibal

SMH – Dispicable….they should keep that mess to themselves.

@Suzette

Gays are born, not made, so there’s no reason they shouldn’t be allowed to adopt.

___________________________________________________

So the ones who were not gay until they were raped in jail or molested, are not really gay, just jumping on the bandwagon? There has never been any concrete proof that anybody was BORN gay. I wasn’t born straight, but taught that boy-girl is the natural order of things.

As for the adoption thing….not sure how I feel about that one. As a kid, I wouldn’t have wanted to be adopted by gay people. That’s all I have to go on.

@sepia830

So if lesbians held you down and licked your vagina long enough, you would become gay?

Wow. Just..wow.

For those of you who are against gay adoption, did you know that if gay adoption was banned nationwide, there would be an even bigger crisis of black and Latino children not getting adopted. Gay people tend to adopt children of color more often than straight people statistically. So unless more you black homophobes plan on adopting more often, shut up about what gay people do.

I don’t agree with their lifestyle. I agree that it goes against my moral standings. However, for all that say “NO, it should not be done.” ADOPT!!!! If heterosexual couples or people were adopting it would not be as much of an issue. Many people never even consider it. Or many people allow there children to be caught up in the system and then complain who ends up with them.

Is that 2 women or 2 men???

Thank you, Kamikapse!

And for the record…I know a few guys who were molested as kids (one by the foreign exchange student his mom took in!) and are now gay. Am I supposed to believe that their being molested had nothing to do with their ultimate choice of lifestyle, that they were gay all along? Please…

@richie the sh*t-packing a-hole….

See my above comment. You obviously didn’t get what I was saying. What are you, like 12 or something?

OK I wont comment on this post above me cause there is too much ignornace in it….BUT Gays don’t need to be raising children, children need to see normal activities at home not un-natural stuff, that will screw them up from the get go!! NOT A GOOD LOOK!!

Sepia, for the record, I know plenty of men who were molested and are heterosexual. So what you are saying means nothing, dear.

What do you all think…I have heard that homosexuality could be a birth defect. I wanna say it has something to do with abnormal glands. Just like a hermaphrodite is born with organs of both sexes. Does anyone believe this as well?

@realwoman..

It cracks me up how sooo many people overlook the fact that many white gay people are RACIST but still want Blacks to support them.

__________________________________________________

I have noticed this as well. I worked in an office that was more than 50 or 60% gay (all men) and they were always making racial comments. Like THEY can judge anybody.

wow, tough subject but no matter how you feel about people choice of regarding their sexuality; there are so many kids out there that need loving, caring good homes. I dont know what’s its like to not have parents but im sure if i had to choose between having gay parents and none at all I would choose to have them. It’s about the kids.

@richie the sh*t-packing a-hole…

Maybe you need to calm down and stop jumping to conclusions. The uptight, angry gay person is not becoming. And FYI – I only brought up your sh*t-packing ways AFTER you brought up somebody licking my vagina. You went there first, now consider yourself checked.

____________________________________________________

It’s hypocritical nonsense that goes back to white privilege. We are supposed to be happy if they accept us but we are EXPECTED to accept them no matter what.

Any able,loving,law abiding person or persons gay or not should be able to adopt. Thousands of kids in the system (most black), is that realy better then a loving parents? Get Real People and get over your PREJUDICE!!!

Ok, now homosexuality is a glandular disorder???

DONE

I have no problem with gay couples do your thing but I think the kids will be messed up in the long run if subjected to this lifestyle. It kind of glorifies it also. Example two dudes kissing in front of a 7 year old you know these kids are like sponges! tell me the lil seven year old won’t think it’s OK to kiss boys just from seeing his two daddy’s doing it.

And can I please emphasize AGAIN, Black and Gay are not exclusive.

C’mon, you know you have a gay cousin. Admit it.

Trice,

“tell me the lil seven year old won’t think it’s OK to kiss boys just from seeing his two daddy’s doing it.”

7 yr old kids, both boys and girls, kiss each other all the time. They do not look at it as sexual. They do not think as adults do, even when they are imitating what they do. It’s when they are old enough to grasp the general bigotry of society when it becomes a problem. So just as a straight parent teaches their children about what is acceptable and what is not, a gay parent will explain the same thing: that you cannot go around kissing people at random, REGARDLESS of gender.

So what’s the difference?

no matter what your views of gay and religion are, its better for a child to have better opportunities living with a loving family rather than living in the system with no parents.

The argument is that children should have a mother and a father. but they have neither, and its great that someone would want to give them a loving home and opportunities for their future. period.

@Oshie

Being gay is not a choice! Why would you choose to be gay?

____________________________________________________

I know I should really ignore this considering the source, but….

Oshie, although I can’t speak for you personally as to why you chose to be gay, I can only say that no one knows their sexuality when they are born. You didn’t even know it when you were 2 years old. I’ve had numerous gay men tell me how they “knew” they were gay. One at age 5 was “in love” with his 19 yr old neighbor because he would pick him up and swing him around (hero-worship!), one said he gave up on women because they were just too hard to please, my good friend Michael said he believed he was seeking affection from a man because his father was such a mean bastard (I’ve met the man and can confirm his meaness) and he never felt loved by him, etc..

Yes, I’ve heard the whole “why would I choose to be gay” thing before, but to me it is just something that one gay person said and every other gay person made it his/her personal allegiance.

Be gay if you want to–who cares? I don’t believe gay people should be beaten or ridiculed because of their lifestyles, but let’s not try to make it into something deep because it isn’t. You were not born gay, you DID choose that lifestyle but only you know why.

Thank you, Jazmine!

@ sepia: You should have gone with your first instinct.

1) I’m not gay

2) Children do not know anything about their sexuality until they hit puberty

3) You had one person tell you why they thought they were gay and you feel they are an ambassador for all gay people?

4) When a group is persecuted they band together for security and to counteract the shame that society projects on them. It becomes their “personal allegiance”, as you put it, because they are tired of hiding who they are.

5) What would qualify as “making this something deep”? Talking about how gay people should be allowed to raise children. Providing loving families for children in foster care? Yes let’s avoid that subject. Oh, wait, that’s the topic of the damn post! OOPS!

AGAIN, CAN ANYONE POINT ME TO THE BIBLE SCRIPTURE REGARDING GAYS?!!! CAN ANYONE, ANYONE?

@richie..

Please get your head out of your ass before reading this as it might help with your comprehension.

Growing up in South Central, I can say that I know of a handful of guys who went to jail and were turned out and have been living a gay lifestyle since. So you as a gay person would tell them that they cannot possibly be gay because they weren’t born that way according to your Sh*t-Packing Rule Book? Please tell me who set the rules for what constitues being gay? Is there a gay Wizard of Oz somewhere who makes these decisions? I will say that I have seen news reports to suggest that gay people have brain abnormalities which would certainly explain your reading comprehension problem.

And your checkmate is disputed. Just because you didn’t understand my post and needed it broken down to a 4th grade level doesn’t mean you won.

Now are we done, because I have to add my name on the petition to Governor Schwartznegger to keep Prop 8 intact?

Now, bend over and spell run (R-U-N?), something I’m sure you’re used to doing.

@Athena,

…or they do it because they actually care and love the child REGARDLESS of color. So how do we go about proving which view is the correct one?

I’m SCARED OF THESE TWO.

AS BIG AS THEY ARE THE QUESTION IS IF A FIGHT BROKE OUT COULD YOU HIT ONE OF THEM?

BLAQ

isnt there a passage in the beginning of the bible talking about Sodom and how the men were going to come after the other man for sex and GOD said he would destroy the city. I believe it specifically talks about man on man lovin. And Trust Im only putting this out there cause i remember reading it, my bible reading days were long ago and its not my end all be all so im just putting it out there for the sake of yall argument, may be wrong but i swear i read that….

@Oshie…

Now didn’t I warn your ass once before that I do not read anything you write to my attention? You are sooooo beneath me.

And now here I am forced to put Sh*t-packing Richie in that little box with you. Well, at least you’ll have some company.

Peace out, b*tches.

And Trust Im only putting this out there cause i remember reading it, my bible reading days were long ago and its not my end all be all so im just putting it out there for the sake of yall argument, may be wrong but i swear i read that….

___________________________________________________

You’re right. There is also a scripture in Timothy that lists homosexuality as a sin just like murder, lying, fornication, etc…

I hope God is grading on a curve….

my comment about slavery is specifically referring to Black Male Homosexuality being so prevelant.

@ Purpple: I reccomend you do more research, if what you are saying is really what you believe.

@ sepia: Like OMG whatEVER. Great comeback.

Sepia,

Once again, you choose lame insults over logic. So let’s go to Wikipedia shall we:

“Latent homosexuality is an erotic inclination toward members of the same sex that is not consciously experienced or expressed in overt action. This may mean a hidden inclination or potential for interest in homosexual relationships, which is either suppressed or not recognised, and which has not yet been explored “for real” or may never be explored in fact.”

And here is my favorite part:

“Others have suggested that latent homosexuality is a result of one’s environment. Living in a homophobic culture, not being exposed to homosexuality, AND BEING SURROUNDED BY MEMBERS OF BOTH GENDERS may encourage latent homosexuality. Conversely, exposure to a single-gender environment, such as a single-sex school, prison, or military service, could bring one’s LATENT homosexuality to the surface.”

So it is not about the gender of the parents or prison or all-male schools. It is about the latent homosexuality of the INDIVIDUAL. Latent meaning it was ALWAYS THERE but not brought to the surface. So no matter what your friends may think, they did not BECOME something that was not ALREADY THERE.

The only indication of “brain abnormalities” around here is coming from your keyboard and I understand that very well.

To dee…why does it matter if they post a pic up of some ugly gays, attractive gays, or ok gays…gay is gay…& if you’re on this website you’re not looking politically correctness anyway…they have bad pics of everyone…so just because they’re gay it’s offensive…to be real…making judgement on ANYONE is wrong and that is what this site is all about…reading an article and giving your judgement on it…fall back…lol

Thanks SEPHIA I know i read that

and just to be clear Im not necessarily taking positons on the Gay issue, i refuse, there are way too many more important things out there for me to be focused on. Im just stating what I know to be true, however i am not tryna make a case against gays..well not at this particular moment…

@ Purpple: LMAO… Caligula, yeah I’ve READ it. And if homosexuality is RAMPANT in Caucasian culture as you claim, then it is equally RAMPANT in other cultures, you may not hear about it as much because you don’t here about other cultures historically OR mythologically as much.

By the way, I was correcting your spelling, not your grammar.

@Oshie

My beliefs are irrelevant because what I told you was fact. Not Opinion unlike what you are telling me. I do not have to believe it to be true because I can pick up a book or go to ole trusty Google and find it to be so, looks like that “do more research” ball is in your corner, and when you do get on that level, hit me back id love to chit chat intelligently about it.

Nowhere in not 1 of my post on this topic did I ever state my “belief”. I have none when it comes to this topic so I know I did NOT get into beliefs…youd prob have to hit ur bible toters up for “beliefs”

@athena,

But gays ARE having their own babies. Through artificial insemination. So the choice IS there. And yet many STILL choose to adopt.

Here’s something else to ponder: what White gay person would adopt a Black child when they themselves are already being persecuted for their sexuality? Why would they add a Black child to the mix when it would easily mean MORE persecution? ESPECIALLY when they could just as easily have a White child from their own seed?

Yes Pedro.

@Pedro: Black.

I don’t know yet. But I do want the right to do it.

@ Purpple: O W N E D!

Gayness exists all over the world, always has, always will. Fact.

@Oshie

And if you “Read” the book Caligula you know yall Caucasions was off the chain with Homosexuality. Ceasar and his gay lovers I swear! Name a Great Historical African Ruler that was off the chains and rumored to be homosexual, i want to look him up?

@Oshie

Just a thought, dont get your info from Wiki—anyone can change its contents…

Purple .. that broad oshie is always correcting folks grammar and spelling and its typos mostly.. who gives a fuc# its a gossip blog GD it aint the declaration of Independence and her horse friends be mis spelling all the time but she never corrects them like that one ugly one that always spells piece (peice) im like damn troll dont you know how to spell that simple word and other words too i never correct spelling on here what the fuc# am i a damn English teacher on a damn blog!

@Oshie

Gayness existing all over the world is not the point. Your side step swagger is mean and vicious…betta believe

LOL@ all that info you posted SAYS NOTHING ABOUT IT BEING PREVELANT IN AFRICA…IT ONLY ADDRESSED LESOTHOS AND NORTHERN CONGO???????????????????? ALSO YOUR TIME PERIOD LOOKS TO BE OFF. ALSO RESEARCH MORE THAN 1 SOURCE TO CORRECTLY ADDRESS MY STATEMENT BECAUSE THAT INFORMATION DOES NOT SPEAK TO IT. PULLING UP ANYTHING ON THE INTERNET IS EASY BUT RESEARCHING ISNT ALWAYS SO EASY. TRY AGAIN

@Athena,

Ok. I think that a large part of the problem is that people judge a whole group by the “people they know.” (see sepia830) Gays are no less diverse and complex as Blacks. And to be truthful, I am ALWAYS learning new things about my friends that I have known for years, some all my life. I would never presume to judge ALL women based on my few women friends.

How many times have you heard White folks claim to “understand” Black folks “because some of their best friends are Black.” Quite insulting, no?

Oshie it seems as if we are trying to prove 2 different point

YOU are trying to prove every culture has gays

BUT

I am trying to prove that as far as i have researched, HOMOSEXUALITY is almost unmatched when it comes to the being practiced in the CAUCASIAN RACE.

@ Purpple: You want me to find you an African Caligula? Sorry, can’t do it.

I guess you were right. White people are crazy. SMA.

@Pedro: “It seems to me it is Gays Vs Blacks , because most of the gays i see complaining are white I KNOW there are gay blacks but they in the background somewhere not really voicing there opinions.”

Make no mistake about it Pedro, we gay Blacks ARE voicing our opinions. But if you rely on the general media, you will not see us. We are caught in the middle between color AND orientation. Trust me, I go on the gay white blogs and let them have it over their bigotry with Black folks. It’s a double-edged sword that cuts both ways and both sides are looking for allegiance from Black gays, for different reasons. But that is another topic for another time. Too complex and long to get into.

I agree Homosexuality is not a white epidemic.

Homosexuality is an epidemic in the white community stemming from ancient accepted practices.

atleast we agree on

something.

Oh puhleeze…I have spoken to NUMEROUS Africans who will tell you that once they stay in their own realm you don’t see no damn gay people. It’s once they go to school ‘abroad’ and come back home you see the homosexual activity. They bring back that stuff even in front of the kids. I talked to one guy who said where he is from in Ghana the men hold hands with each other and NEVER sleep with each other. It is not a gay thing and they don’t feel anyway about holding their homies hands but over here because everyone is afraid of being gay brothers have barely any physical contact with each other.

Oshie im not here to white people bash(at this particular moment)….and i resent that because i never white people bash unless you consider telling the truth about white people or any race white people bashing. i just found this interesting because i have heard several lectures by scholars who have done extensive research on the subject..but to your defense, they are all black.

PURPPLE, how in the world can you measure the amount of homosexuality in cultures and make a valid comparison? I’m curious. No one has kept a record of every homosexual act practiced from the beginning of time. So how in the world would you know? Or are you making assumptions? What is your source of information?

tell the truth shame the debil REALWOMAN

Due to it being rampant in that society THAT IS WHY THAT POPULATION IS ONLY A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF THE WORLD POPULATION! Duh.

Ritchie disk disk for asking such a remedial question. After going back and forth with Oshie and being here 40 minutes past my check out time i cannot help you. There is PLENTY of research on the subject, how bout you find it yourself(like i did) and get back to me.

Thanks

might check on this post when i get home but my work here is done…

PURPPLE

tell the truth shame the debil REALWOMAN

____________________________________________________

You know I will and that devil better watch out for I slap her again for lying up in here…I am still waiting for the list of African rulers who were gay. Puhleeze….

Ritchie you and Oshie can get together and work that out, then get back at me.

Oshie where are you to correct my grammar when i really need it, i meant tisk tisk in that post to ritchie, or is it my spelling….HELP!

There goes realwoman getting her blood pressure up over me again.

Question: why do blk people always get blamed for everything??

@ Purpple, go on and get that overtime! LOL

@Pedro: Kids are ridiculed for EVERYTHING by their peers. So of course they are going to get picked on. But the media is never going to report about kids that DON’T get picked on because that is not news. Kids are way more understanding than adults. And if the adopted child has very loving parents that teach him that having gay parents is nothing to be ashamed of, he or she will do just fine.

Pedro,

You are living proof that the youth can be way more mature, intelligent and open minded than older “learned” folks.

Kudos to you, my friend.

@Pedro: yes sir.

Ritchie you are avoiding facts which is why you so easily Agree with Oshie, she addressed nothing I was talking about, she was on a whole nother tangent, obviously you dont follow the comments well or the level is over your head…maybe one day. Sorry if your hurt over the facts. well shy i take that back, i aint make it that way i just said it!

Ritchie sweetie Id be glad to say im Wrong but it just isnt so…..

This website is really getting homophobic and pathetic. What if they put a picture from a hot ghetto mess Web site, then posed the question, “Should black people be allowed to adopt?” What a minstrel show you run. I don’t know how you guys endorse Obama and endorse such ignorance on the same site. It’s an embarrassment for everyone.

…and yes, that picture above is f%$#ed up…lol

@Oshie

shyt that wasnt paid. You got my time for free! You betta appreciate it too! ;P

Thousands of children don’t have parents. Foster children get to pick who there parents are. If they don’t mind having gay parents why should you. Like my momma use to tell me all the time. “Mind yo own damn business!!”

lmaoooooooo richie ur gay azz is funny with that Oprah moment.

Doesn’t discriminating against a person’s sexual orientation constitute a violation of federal law? I’m just saying. How is it fair that the government has passed laws to protect our citizens from discrimation solely on the basis of their sexual orientation but the are the very ones commiting the acts? Why is it that gays are not allowed to serve in our armed forces? If a private business chose to exclude gays in their hiring practices all hell would break lose but it is okay for the government to still choose as they please? I am not necessarily for or against gays and their rights. I personally choose to mind my own damn business. When I get appointed judgeship, ask me then. But I am, however for equal protection under the law. If it is okay for the government to not like gays, then it should be okay for private entites and individual to not like them and make it known.

Laissez- Faire

@Purpple:

You started you’re entire debate with an assumption and have given no proof to the “rampant” prevalence of homosexuality in Caucasian society as compared to the rest of the races, other than to cite the Romans. Homosexuality in the Roman Empire does not conclude that it runs “rampant” among whites. By that logic, I could cite the actual FACT that AIDS is higher among Blacks than Whites and use that to conclude that promiscuity runs “rampant” among Negroes. That would foolish and irresponsible.

But of course that doesn’t matter to you. Like the old saying goes: “Wise people talk because they have something to say; fools, because they have to say something.”

But of course there is no

@ Boss Lady

100% co-sign!!!!!

why can’t they adopt, as long as they are not trying to push their lifestyle on the child(ren) or hurting them in some way…they should be able to adopt because there are so many unwanted neglected children waiting to be loved, just don’t let them take pictures like this one…

Richie you are trying hard so i will entertain you

first lets get the medial out the way…whats AIDS? does AIDS exist? you could say what you want about AIDS and blacks but If i wanted to be ignorant and give an uneducated answer i could just say there are more black and colored people across the world which would make sense that our “AIDS statistics” out number whites……but if i only believed in certain “statistics” … so you are talking to a brick wall with that right there

Second, I am soo not about trying to prove or give you facts on anything, i put it out here, only phrased it as a question to see the responses but it definetely wasn’t a question or debate, it is the truth. what i want you and oshie to do, is GO RESEARCH IT YOURSELF, STOP LOOKING TO ME FOR FACTS, I AM NO SCHOLAR BUT THERE ARE SEVERAL OUT THERE WHO HAVE DONE RESEARCH ON THE SUBJECT OF HOMOSEXUALITY, HISTORY AND CULTURE. ok so thats takes care of “facts”

next, long story short, you read but obviously dont comprehend. I used Rome and Ceasar as an example because isn’t that one of your most PRAISED societies, dont yall call that a great society and isnt he one of your race’s “great rulers”. Was Rome not praised everywhere(besides indigenous cultures.

THE ANSWER IS YES! all of your scholars praise Roman culture as advanced culture when in fact it was HEATHOUNOUS AND MONSTROUSLY CIVILIZED if you want to call it civilized! So looking at YOUR GREAT CULTURE according to YOUR HISTORY books and seeing HOMOSEXUALITY running so RAMPANT AND PREVELANT written in YOUR SCHOLARS BOOKS AND MOVIES says A HELLA LOT about your cultures history.

IF you cant understand that, You never will.

Thanks for trying but this was never a debate.

WHAT UP REDD didnt see u up there

as long as they are not crazy or pedophiles……I don’t care.

B’sides, a lot of kids need loving homes.

This picture is disrespectful to the gay and lesbian community.

Sincerely,

Mock Rock Star

Kids should be able to independantly decide wether they want to be gay or not when they come of age, not have the culture forced upon them. GAY COUPLES SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO ADOPT.

Don’t worry about the “Gay’s” be the time they’re done

it’ll illegal to be Hetero.

@ Richie………man I like how you drop that knowledge. You verbalized every thing I was thinking. Can a set you up with my gay best friend?

What are these things? I don’t dislike gays, but come on, for the love of God, what possessed thing one and thing two to put us all endanger by viewing such horridness!

@ realwoman

“As a matter of fact, many gay individuals dont have children until A. their partner and themselves are financially stable, lets see how many heterosexual couples in our neighborhoods actually wait till they have enough money before they have children. B. gay parents actually really really want their kids and treat them at times even better according to research for example of a 100 parents in canada. ”

This whole portion of the comment is ignorant. Seriously…are you trying to tell us now that gay people are more equipped to raise fvcking children they can’t even have? Is that how things were intended to be? There are studies to show that the children brought up in gay households do have their own DIFFERENT problems so don’t make it out to be utopia in fruity land because it is not. There is more domestic violence reported in gay households than straight so save it.

Condone what you condone but don’t make the natural order of things seem as though they are wrong in favor of your own opinion. No matter how you slice it BIOLOGICALLY with no scientific intervention the only way children are created is by the union of two people of the OPPOSITE sex.

***you completely misunderstood what I wrot. i did not imply that children raised in gay households are immune from problems. That depends on the individuals, but research has proved that people who really want children, plan for the arrival of a new child better, and are usually better off to begin with plus they already can’t wait to have the child. It’s like the parents who couldnt have kids who finally get to have kids try their hardest to give the child the best. I’m just saying that research suggests that these people are better prepared. Plus totally aside from that, there are so many children who would love to have a home and a permanent roof over their head and given plentiful opportunities. The ugly truth is that a lot of these kids are black and desperately need a home. Your ridiculous if you think they are better off in a foster home than with 2 people that love them.

Do NOT forget that the “good book” was also used by abusive groups with their own agenda to:

promote slavery

promote female subserviance

promote same race relationships

To all the fake azz Christians out there: I can pick and choose Bible quotes till next Sunday to cast all of yall to hell based off of what I can “find” in the Bible. You know damn well Jesus would be cool with this…he’d be downright delighted to see someone actually care about a child’s welfare. To the people saying this is a sin, I say HOW DARE YOU! You are the same people stealing, coveting, worshiping idols and committing adultery. SHAME ON YOU!!! I think Jesus just shed a tear aftering hearing you put his name in same sentence as your discriminating BS.

y did yall post this piccha???? lmbao

sheesh…. let the people do what they want.

Ok then letting people do what they want means letting pedophiles be free to their bidding so are we supposed to say ok to that too?

This is a damn shame! What has this freaking society come too? The bottom line is the shyit is WRONG!! Males were not put on this earth to be with another grown hairy azz nasty azz male! It’s pointless! God created a MAN & a WOMAN for a reason people!! What the phuck!

Don’t U gay rights idealist think that if God intended or meant for same sex copulation to exist he would have given men the ability to birth a child or women the ability to create sperm so 2 men or 2 women could be together?!?

This transsexual, homosexual Bull Shyit has gotten way out of hand! This society is teaching our children that this type of anarchy is ok! Tyra with a phucking tranny modeling competition,& every other television show we see there is some form of homosexuality being shown to our kids which is pathetic!

& why is it that 95% of the people that support gay rights & marriage are gay or lez themselves? BECAUSE it’s WRONG!! I wish U phucking people would quit trying to force the people that disapprove of that life style to accept it or act like its ok because it is NOT & it NEVER will be! Then every time a “real” MAN posts a comment that does not agree with homosexuality people resort to verbal assaults talking that “he’s in the closet, or has hidden desires to be a homo” nonsense!

GOD is an energy, like light, radiation, and gravity. It is ONLY CREATED, WHENEVER 2 OR MORE INDIVIDUALS COMMIT AN ACT OF POSITIVITY. (This + This = THAT) That is the greatest secret of all-time.

If we continue to personalize ‘GOD’…if we continue to ‘worship’ the Christian or any other god, then we will continue down this sad road of religious bigotry, hatred, and murder.

I refuse to walk around with the same psychological mindset as the average Puritanical fanatic of the 4th, 11th, 15th, and 19th centuries.

How about you?

And yes, this message is relevant to this topic….

soldier of truth. your about a decade or so late about the questioning of homosexuality.Back in the 90′s the question was whether people were born gay or if it was environment. Now we have empirical evidence from advances with genetics to confidently say that gay people are so because of genetics. For example, identical twins have the same dna and when one…guess what? So is the other even when they aren’t raised in the same house. So you cant be mad at people for being what they can’t help. Its genes and also there is even research done by ALfred Kinsey sugguesting that most people had homosexual desires but repress them because society and religion forces us to be straight. Its pretty deep. PLease read up and keep your mind open. You never know, your best friend could be gay, cousin, uncle whaetver. If not one day in the future you might come to realize that a lot of decent people migth be gay. OPEN YOUR MIND

Before you say its unfair to the children somebody tell me what the would rather have, a gay couple that loves you and cherishes their chance at parenthood or no parents at all. Do you think there is enough straight couples to adopt every kid out there without their parents?

children are going to be teased anyway, thats part of childhood…and life! Alot of children in orphanages and jumping from one foster home to the next just want have loving parents, i highly doubt it will matter in the end if the parents are gay or not.

K-mia

I’ve been wanting to ask you this for a while. You’re from Ethiopia?

ya’ll are truly some dumb mof*s. That’s why the Black community is down now. if the kids are loved, financially stable, and TAUGHT PROPERLY, then it shouldn’t matter….get ya’ll SH*T together! ugh! blackS!

Dee no sorry that study was found to be incorrect! The theory of it being Genetic was thrown out because most gay people come from heterosexual parents! Going with your DNA theory would mean if 1 is gay then all or most of the other siblings would/should be gay or have a higher chance, which was found not to be the case! Studies show that over 90% of homosexuals are alone in terms of their siblings. You can’t throw identical twins in the mix because everything from their choices in food, to their style of dress was found to be if not exact very similar.

So I’m sorry u are wrong. Being gay is a CHOICE, unless a person is born with both sexual organs & is forced to choose 1 & have the other organ surgically removed.. That’s a different story altogether!

You’re speaking of 1 mans findings oppose to the hundreds of others that found none of those things! Don’t no most people have nothing when it comes to homosexuality because if that was the case then homosexuals would out number heterosexuals, regardless of what religion they agree with! A prime example of that is having sex before marriage. As a Christian we know its wrong but over 90% of them /us still do it. So that’s not an excuse. I’m sorry! Wrong is Wrong. & homosexuality is WRONG!!

‘Soldier of Truth’

I wonder if you realize how your words reinforce the ‘Hell on Earth’ that many people live daily.

Christianity is but a belief, created and sustained by prejudicial faith, whereby genetic sexuality (hetero or homo) is a scientifically proveable actuality.

Am I making any sense?

I wish mofos would quit acting like homosexuality is a good thing! Damn it! If you’re gay then fine so be it, but don’t try to convince everyone else it’s ok & there is nothing wrong with it just to make yourself feel better about it!

That’s just a sorry excuse to try & justify sleeping with the same sex! Everyone has an excuse! So is the grown man that likes sleeping with 10 year old boys or girls actions justified when he claims he was born with his sickness too?

Where & when does it end?

Theoretic Magnesis~

Sure you do! Listen if you don’t believe in God then fine that’s your business, “unless” you’re faith or beliefs deem it ok or necessary to hurt innocent women, children in the process like the people in Waco Texas or any other cult that caused people to lose their lives!

I see the world for what it is believe me, I’m not a biblical scholar. There are things in the bible I don’t understand or whole heartedly agree with but! I’m sorry there is no way u can rationalize 2 men sleeping together is ok! It’s pointless & does absolutely nothing positive for this society!

JustSpeaking~

What does ethnicity have to do with anything? I don’t know what your ethnic background is but u are a disgrace to it! U should really be ashamed of yourself, didn’t your parents teach u better than to judge people by the color of their skin? I would certainly like to hope so!

You my friend are an idiot! Why don’t u go read a book, no one is even speaking on race! The topic is about HOMOSEXUALS being able to adopt & raise kids! You really made yourself look stupid! Go take a cultural diversity class & shut the phuck up!

I HAVE READ COUNTLESS COMMENTS ON HERE AND YET I CANNOT AGREE WITH MORE THAN A HANDFUL OF THE RUDE COMMENTS. THESE TWO LADIES ARE DOING WHAT MAKES THEM HAPPY AND THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO DO SO. IF I WANT TO BE WITH A WOMEN OR A CHINESE MAN WHAT DIFFERENCE SHOULD THAT MAKE TO YOUR LIFE???

WE NEED TO STOP WORRYING ABOUT OTHERS SO MUCH AND START HANDLING OUR OWN BUSINESS FIRST!!

I HAVE NOT ACHIEVED ALL OF MY STATUS,FINANCIAL SECURITY, AND EDUCATION THROUGH WORRYING ABOUT OTHERS!! I SUGGEST YOU ALL TRY THE SAME!!! MMKKAAYYY

I AM OFFENDED BY SOME OF THESE COMMENTS AND REALLY WISH SOME OF THE POSTERS WERE HERE SO I COULD GET A FEW THINGS CLARIFIED!!

FAITH & BELIEF were the authors of WACO & Jonestown! They too were ‘believers’, who like you, could not be convinced that their beliefs were irrational. Religious faith/belief itself is irrational, isn’t it?

‘Believing in god’ is a neutral-negative mindset: ‘belief’ is inactive and pays no bills. It is fear and obedience based, and bears the fruit of insecurity.

‘Creator with/of god’ is a positive, affirming lifestyle which brings real change to the world, whereby, god=love….

Radical but powerful and transforming.

Well if it’s anything I said then I’m here!lol

Theoretic Magnesis

Then u are in that same category! No one can convince you that your ideals & beliefs are wrong so what makes u so different?

Those people weren’t following God those people were following a Human being that told them he was a prophet! That’s not the same!

WHY ARE WE SO JUDGEMENTAL??

I REALIZE OTHER RACES JUDGE TO BUT WE AS A WHOLE TEND TO HATE ON A REGULAR BASIS. WE CANNOT OVERCOME IF WE ARE NOT FOCUSED ON GREATER THINGS!!

@OSHIE:

Mad love kid.;-> You crushed on this thread.

There is NOTHING wrong with gays adopting.A child needs a safe,loving,providing, environment.Bless the person/couple who provides it.

Soldier of Truth

It appears that I’m not making any sense in our discourse. That’s unfortunate.

If you just lighten up a bit…allow others to make make their own decisions while having a measure of compassion and humility…

I continued this convo because I recognize you in me. Strive to recognize yourself in your neighbor, in every man, woman, and child. The moment that you do, your world will never be the same.

sxyQblondie~ Was that question directed towards me?

Why judge homosexuality? That’s a no brainer.. Because it’s WRONG!

If so, that’s simple to answer. EVERY 1 judges people every day all day! When u go out to eat u judge the cooks on how well your food is prepared, if u have kids u judge their teachers or sitters on how well they teach or manage your kids, when u take your car to be serviced u judge how well they do & if it’s not satisfactory to u then u complain to get it taken care of do u not?

There is no escaping it, as long as u are breathing u are going to judge & be judged by some1 for something!

So in your world serial killers shouldn’t be judged right? What about pedophiles? I mean if u want to go there then let’s go there! Don’t pick & choose 1 wrong for another! If separate sexes were never created then we/this world would not exist! So why allow it to be now? What’s the purpose? A man & a woman can procreate & live life accordingly. Look at the way we are genetically created. Where the woman is weak the man is strong and vice versa. Man & woman were created 4 each other!

Theoretic Magnesis

I see your point…But I could never ever, ever see myself in a male that chooses to sleep with another male No sir!! My mother & family raised me to be a MAN with morals, principals, ethics & standards.

Humility? Because some dude wants to have sex with another dude I’m just suppose to except & most importantly respect it?? NO! NO, NO! Sorry that’s NEVER going to happen because I disagree with homosexuality!! Just like I disagree grown men sleeping with little kids, & drug dealers so what u want me to have humility for them too? How can I dare have humility for them??

I see myself in likeminded individuals a man that loves his wife & kids & will do EVERY thing in his power to love, honor, cherish, RESPECT & protect them! That’s the kind of man I can admire!

Nothing less!

Ok I’ve read all the posts and I just want to say that with EVERYTHING in life there is a spectrum. Homosexuality has been around as long as anything else. It DOES exist for the sake of existence. With light there must be dark.. with time there is a 12:00am, a 12:00 pm and EVERYTHING in between. I would like for everyone to take a look at the universe and tell me one thing that exists that does not have a conterpart at the end of the spectrum. It is NO ONE’s place to judge another b/c I’m sure there isn’t a person on this blog that is living their life entirely based on what their ‘God’ wants them to do. It’s also not your place to put your personal religious beliefs or opinions on others. If you don’t like homosexuality then you shouldn’t be gay. If you are gay you should not have to defend your lifestyle to anyone. I would never walk next door to my neighbor and ask him what he is doing in his house and subject him to my beliefs and opinions on whether I think he should be doing that. I just won’t go there if I don’t agree! We as people and ESPECIALLY as a black community have been persecuted for hundreds of years. Until we come together despite all of our inherent differences, we will NEVER see our own true power be realized.

ONE MORE THING.. to quote Bible verses is not a good argument as people have the right to choose their own religious beliefs. I wonder how many people who claim to be Christians have actually done the research to find out where the Bible ACTUALLY comes from and the history behind it. It has been manipulated for thousands of years by the leaders who translated it! To say that each verse in the Bible is a word by word translation of what God wanted the authors to write would be an incorrect and very ignorant statement. I wouldn’t suggest anyone read a verse and quote it as a end all be all to make any judgement. Live your life the way you want to. Imagine if someone came to your door and forced their uninformed opinions on you and forced you to live your life based on what they thought you should be doing. IT AIN’T RIGHT PEOPLE!!

Kigali~ Another dummy racist! Is your life really that miserable? I guess so!lol Go look into the mirror & slap the person u see!!

The bible has little or nothing to do with my point! Homosexuality is wrong no matter how u look at it!

If u don’t believe God created us ok cool, explain the point of whom ever creating a MAN & A WOMAN

Some animals are asexual so there’s no need for a male & female to copulate in order to reproduce so we could have been created the same way. Then there would be no argument or confusion, but we are not.. Why is that?

The world would cease to exist if there were only men or only women in it. So yet again I ask what’s the point of 2 men or 2 women being together?

Marc~

My point was that they are all W.R.O.N.G!!!!

How many times must I say it! U obviously just skimmed through my post with out reading anything else, because I made my comparison very clear..

Pedophiles choose to sleep with little boys & girls just like gay males chose to sleep with other males.. It’s all relevant!

They are all “PERSONAL CHOICES” that people make.. It’s not some ones genetic code that’s makes them turn gay.. It’s their own weak & or mislead & misguided decision making.

Why is it that over 60% of all homosexuals say they began seeking fulfillment from the same sex because they were sexually abused as a child?

Then U have a large percentage of men & women that claim they hate the opposite sex but the women find butch azz women or “studs” as they are called & dudes find flaming azz fagots that dress like a woman, act like a women,& live their lives as women… But they claim to dislike the opposite sex?? Apparently not!

Once again you are the one that is WRONG!! Pedophiles do NOT choose to be this way nor does a serial killer choose to be crazy!! There have been hundreds of studies that state clearly that one can be genetically predisposed to becoming a serial killer. If your father is one, there is a great chance that you will also be that crazy. If your father is an alcoholic, you will also have a huge likeliness to becoming an alcoholic.

PERSONAL EXPERIENCE..

BIG SURPRISE.. I’M GAY!! (LOL)

I know for a FACT that there was NO point in my life where I decided to be attracted to men instead of being women. I was born into a ‘Cosby Show’ type of family with 2 straight parents.. and I was never abused. I grew up in a small town and I didn’t know any gay people until I left home. When I went through puberty and started to have attraction.. I noticed that I was naturally attracted to men no matter how much I would look at girls and want to be attracted to them b/c they were the ‘pretty’ ones who everyone was attracted to. I NEVER thought that I would actually live a gay lifestyle until I was old enough and mature enough.. AND educated enough to know that there was NO WAY i could deny who I was and live a life that was not representative of how YOUR GOD made me.

Now please tell me what about my personal experience proves that what you’re saying is true?

Marc

Wow!! So what you are saying is because u are gay that homosexuality is right?

1 of my major points for saying homosexuality is wrong is because it has no “PURPOSE” in society or life!!!

Men & Women are here if for nothing else to REPRODUCE!! Bottom line… Can 2 males do that? NO Can 2 women do that? NO.. Do u see where this is going? Men & Women were put here for each other!!

Were animals now?? So human beings are the same as rats, dogs, snakes & other amphibians?? Is This how you justify sleeping with another man??? Speak for yourself. U may be as simple minded as a damn peacock or baboon or some other animal but I am Not!

I didn’t say “ALL” homosexuals had negative up bringings that lead them astray I said most!! There is a difference!

I think if you profile most people they can say there was something negative about their upbringing. Who says that means they are meant to be gay?! It is true that some people have been abused at a young age and for some reason this may lead to homosexual behavior. But there are many people who are abused who do NOT become gay!! So what is your point in making that argument?? And where are you getting this ‘most’ from?! Do you personally know these gay people you are referring to?? And YES because I’m gay that does make it right b/c it’s the who I am!! In my life, it is right.. and I can just as easily reproduce OR adopt just like ANYBODY else. If you have sex only to reproduce, what a sad existence you must lead. Do you even enjoy sex.. how many kids do you have?! When you have sex with a female, do you think to yourself.. I wonder how many kids we can pop out through this experience?! COME ON NOW!! You are lying to yourself!!!!! ANYWAY.. in this case we are not talking about reproduction.. we are talking about whether it should be okay for a gay couple to adopt.

First, we have to ask whether love is present in the home. If love exists, there is nothing bad that can come from that. As hard as it is to find real love in this world, why would you deny anyone the opportunity to enjoy it and to have the right to be with the person they love and have the family that they want to have. It’s not your decision to make, nor is your opinion on the matter going to stop ANYONE from following their own hearts. I suggest you worry about what YOU are doing and stop worrying about what people are doing that is beyond your control and understanding. that is my peace.

Also you should note that ‘purpose’ is subject to the person or thing it is created to. Do you ask why the sky is blue? It has no purpose to be that color.. it just is! Do you ask why chicken tastes so good?? It just does!!! Why do black people love hot sauce so much?! BECAUSE THEY DO!!!! It is clear to me that you are just an ignorant individual who is lacking of a life. You have nothing better to do than to judge other people’s decisions b/c you must be insecure in your own. Otherwise, why should one person’s ‘purpose’ matter anymore than anyone else’s. I have NO IDEA why God would create such an ignorant individual like yourself. But I’m not going to question it.. there has always been rich and poor and there has always been the educated and the ignorant. Without one there could not be the other.

God forgive me – now I believe in equality for all but I just can’t help it – them two look like Blair and Natalie from ‘Facts of Life.’

Adopting is NOT reproducing! Adopting is taking care of a child that derived from a MAN & a WOMAN! It’s not the same!

The word “Most” is coming from all of the statistics I’ve researched.. This is not the first time I’ve had this debate/argument!!! Therefore in order to have factual data behind my ideals I had to do my research. 60% out of 100 would be considered most! That’s why I used the word..

I don’t associate or befriend homosexuals because I disagree with that life style.

I worry about what’s being fed to our children! What are we supposed to close our eyes & not care about the wrong doings that are being disseminated & corrupting our youth?

No to hell with that! I will speak out about anything that does not promote positive growth in this society as a whole, & I’m sorry homosexuality is NOT positive growth to our kids!!

When males are dressing like females & females are dressing like males how, is this a good/positive thing?

You are going to stand behind your chosen lifestyle regardless to how wrong it is so that’s fine, but I just hope that if you EVER have a son of your own that has YOUR DNA in him u are honest enough to raise him to be better than you not like you!!

Dude! What the f*ck does chicken or hot sauce have to do with u phucking another male!!! Come on!! All blacks don’t like chicken or freaking hot sauce… Quit phucking stereotyping!! Geewiz!!

Your making pointless ass exaggerated comparisons! First it was humans and animals now it’s chicken, hot sauce & black people?? What are u a homo & racist now??

Wake up! There is NOTHING u can say that “legitimately” gives any validity to u being a homo!! Nothing at all so you continue to make these idiotic analogies because u like most homos refuse to accept the fact that your chosen life style is WRONG on any & every level there is..

I tried to give you the benefit of the doubt that maybe deep down inside u there was some sense of moral & ethical righteousness.. But U definitely proved that wasn’t the case… Just phucking pathetic!

All I can say is there was a time when people thought the earth was flat. They were wrong and were proven so. There was a time when it was considered wrong for a black man to vote. That injustice and intolerance was fought against and was proven to be a wrong way of thinking. Wake up brother.. we are in 2009!!! The intolerance has to end. Your conclusions are based off of your own opinions. You have given me no evidence to conclude that being gay is wrong. None. You are clearly going to continue to believe as you do and millions of people in the world will continue to live their lives as they see fit without taking your opinions into consideration. I’m confused as to why anyone thinks they have the right to tell someone else that they should change who they are to conform to what other people think they should be. that doesn’t make any sense to me. If you ask me, the only pathetic person here is your dumb ass.

Morality is subjective. Do you have premarital sex? That is considered to be immoral by some. Do you drink, smoke, bump and grind at the club, curse, lie at times, lust, masturbate, eat too much?? All things considered to be immoral by some people. Does that men you will or should change your ways?! HELL NO.. you do what you want to do and you teach your kids what you want to teach them. KICK ROCKS.

YUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKK……GAYS SHOULD NOT ADOPT IF U WANTTT KIDSSS DEN U KNOWW WAT TO DOOO…kmtt

Wow. You guys are determined to argue this issue until the cows come home. There is no end to it. I’ve seen a lot of people who have issues with gays shockingly are more tolerant of some serious social infractions they’ve got going on in their own backyard. They have sons (or daughters) who are part of the Black genocidal system pumping narcotics into the Black neighborhoods – but somehow that’s tolerable. They can contribute to the annihilation of a race – just as long as they’re not gay. God forbid. Young daughters coming home swollen bellied by some nameless, worthless teenage daddy – but that’s more acceptable than somebody else choosing to love (legitimately) who they want. Dynasties of family spending generations on welfare and refusing to pull themselves up by the bootstraps but there’s no shame in that. You’re better than the gays. Rampart wife beatings, incest and cheatings galore going on in people’s own homes but they can set that aside and turn their ire on full blast to gay people who just want equal civil rights. A whole bunch of you all running your mouths, stomping your feet black and blue on your soapbox have a whole bunch of skeletons in your closets that you need to go focus your attention on fixing – you know who you are. Take care of what you’ve got stanking in your own backyard before you go projecting your own hypocritical, weak and flexible morality on other people who just want to live their lives the way it comes naturally to them. I stopped going to church a long time ago because I came across so many hypocrites who would be coming in from the clubs with the admittance stamp still prominently displayed on their hand claiming they were going straight to church to praise Jesus. The liquor still stink on their breaths. Only God can judge. And woe onto you all who don’t have your own houses in order but want to dictate to others what is right and just. Wait until your turn comes to be scrutinize, I hope you can take the harsh judgement you’ve chosen to project on others. I say people are born the way they are born. Some straight, some gay, some can produce, some are barren, some with one sex organs, others with both and so on and so on. It’s nature. I think ostracizing people because of their orientation is as absurd as hating someone because of their eye color. It’s ridiculous. Let people live their lives. You worry about yourself … and work on repairing what you’ve got wrong with you. You know what I’m talking about. Look long and hard – you’ll find there’s no shortness of ills within your four walls. Now enough of the ridiculous arguing. Hell will freeze over before you knuckleheads come to a resolution. Live and let live. Leave the judging up to the Almighty. That’s all.

There u go again comparing simple stuff like eating food, which is something we have to do to survive to you being a fagot!!

U keep running around in the same circles because u can’t find anything that makes any damn sense!

There is no sense of reason for being a homo that’s why u say u just are?

People thought the world was flat because it made sense! U being gay doesn’t make any sense so how again are the two comparable?

Yes, I lust, Yes I have had premarital sex before, Yes I’ll have a beer or two when I’m off work, but U know the difference between me & u I know it’s wrong, I have no problem admitting it, & yes I choose to do it anyway.. I never said I followed the bible verse for verse so what’s your point!

I’m a MAN I stand on my own two feet & accept responsibility for all of my actions!! I know, my wrong doings on this earth & making love to the WOMAN I love is wrong according to the bible & for that I’ll have to deal with the consequences of my actions when it’s my time..

But u on the other hand choose to believe in nothing so you don’t have to face the reality of how U live is wrong.. U are a sorry excuse for a male no wonder you are a faggot!

U have premarital sex with a male so what the phuck do u have to say for yourself! Oh nothing because in your world we evolved from apes or some shyit right! U are a lost soul dude at least be male enough to admit when u are wrong.. Don’t be a coward your whole life!

Kick those rocks u worthless excuse 4 a human being!!

Only God can judge me is just a nice catch phrase it’s not reality!

U judge people just like everyone else so please spare us with the catchy cliché’s!!

Homosexuality, just like, teen age pregnancy, just like people doing & selling drugs, is was & forever will be WRONG!!

All of you gay rights activist should have your head examined, because you’re not thinking clearly!

What’s next Transsexual rights? Rights for Pedophiles? It’s all the damn same! Why the hell should some dude be give special phucking rights & privileges because he woke up one day & decided he wanted to sex another dude?

Come on that makes no logical sense what so ever!

My whole thing is this….

You gave up your right to raise children when you chose a same sex partner.

As far as the kids being this guys younger siblings, i think he should be able to take care of them. They are family.

As a Child, Id rather stay in foster care then be adopted by gay parents. Im sorry but thats me….

@Tooty

Thanks babe. If your friend is foine AND intelligent, hell yeah!!

Well Purpple, you are right about one thing; I don’t understand it and I never will.

That’s because it’s a load of crap, dear.

Gays should not adopt, I think that it is an un-natural environment for children to be raised in. No to gay adoption!

Give me a break. One’s sexual pref should NOT dictate whether they can raise children or not.

Keep your religion to yourself. You get offended when gays ‘push’ their lifestyle on you, yet you think nothing of shoving your religious garbage down everyone’s throat. Keep that garbage to yourself where it belongs.

soldier of truth, what the heck are you talking about?

It has been found to be genetic. Plain and simple and you are showing you lack of knowledge by assuming that heterosxual parent therefore can’t produce homosexual children because they have hetero genes and such. Umm, do you know anything about genetics, do you know how many chromosomes people have? Have u heard about how they finally mapped out the entire gene pool and have found a gene for everything from breast cancer to right handedness to yes being gay? Do u know what a recessive gene is an a dominant gene? So 2 brown eyed parent cant make a child with blue eyes? Your spewing pure ignorance from your trap and there is no valid source but you own pure bigotry. Please go to school or something. Put the bible down fro just a second and read up on your fellow brothers and sisters, many of which are gay and lesbian.

BOTTOM LINE:

Gay people can have children several different ways. They don’t HAVE to adopt. If someone chooses to adopt a child that would otherwise not have a home, who are you to tell them not to do that if they are going to provide a loving environment for a child who would be in any sense homeless. I would say that anyone on this page that commented that gay people should not have the right to adopt, ADOPT SOME DAMN KIDS THEN!!!!

I am so happy that some states are passing laws see gay people as citizans with rights.

Hmm.. for those who act as if homosexuality …especially in the black community or homosexuality period is so new need to check out Keith Boykins book, Beyond the Downlow (Sex Lies and Denial in the Black Community) which breaks down a lot about homosexuality and the black community.

No, I am not gay, I’m a straight female, but I do have gay friends and none of them ever checked off a box to choose to be “gay”. Everyone won’t be tolerate of gays and we ALL are entitled to our opinion but the reality is gays can have kids with or without adoption.

A gay man can have a child with his lesbian friend, a lesbian can make a baby with a male, and so on.. you see where I’m going with this.

Homosexuality is there, and always has been and isn’t going anywhere simply because you’re offended by it. Gays aren’t taken over. There’s still more heterosexuals than gays, so people need to calm down.

If you’re so offended a gay couple wants to adopt a kid, you adopt the kid yourself. Yeah, didn’t think so.

Wow, some of you have some amazing logic. “Gays shouldn’t adopt because of bigots out there.”

Hey, what about saying “we should try to stop bigots from taking away the rights and freedoms of American citizens.”? Why are you arguing for acquiescing to what hateful people want?
