Gay

This is personally my view. Not theological.

1. No one has a right to say no to anyones love or marriage. No one has a right to choose who you cannot marry or love. Be it a man or a woman. You can choose who you want, man or woman, you being man or woman.
2. What is the definition of fornicators? Is it married infidelity or unmarried sexual relationships? Unless legally bound, no one has a right to punish a person for having any kind of relationship.
3. There is no compulsion in religion.

Your post really struck me. Everytime I read it I see a dirty hypocritical world, and I cant see an end to the hypocrisy

Cheers.

I'm not quite sure how it struck you.
Anyway, there is compulsion in religion at times.
Saudi Arabia is just one of many such places.

I know brother. I was just posting my view. I know that compulsion is there, in the name of religion.

It struck me that in some countries like the Saudi Arabia, things might never change.

(There are other regimes I hate more, this is just a statement)

Cheers and thanks.

As a gay man, I don't argue with homophobes (who are usually conservative or of abrahamic worldview, let's be real) for various reasons.

Firstly, I can't control what others think. Frankly what others think is none of my business and out of my control. Trying to change people, even if they're being blatantly ignorant, is only going to end up with me losing energy and time.

Secondly, in a zealot's debate, to be blunt, that's not MY god. Those aren't MY rules. Jews can refuse pork as long as they don't look to force everyone else to give up bacon. You can follow your own rules in The US, but the only ones we all must follow are the American laws which are meant to have no ill will nor preference to anything associated with God, spirit or religion.

If in your culture, you believe a man is dishonorable for marrying a man, whatever. I'm not of that worldview though. Your sky god, honestly, doesn't mean anything to me, like how my gods mean little to you. Just like how I can't control others' ignorance, they can't control my love.

I don't waste my time with people converting me because neither of us has control over the other.

Very well put and I agree with you completely. I personally don't agree with gay related freedom, and other things, but I should never allow that to make me demonize or look down to who agrees with it or practices it. I shouldn't impose my beliefs against them just because they have different beliefs. I even made gay friends I care for and respect.

I hate dancing too, but that does not mean I hate dancers and don't accept them for who they are.

If anyone bothers you because of your sexuality, you can report them and the staff will enforce the rules accordingly. RF does not discriminate for sexuality, and believes in delivering justice equally.
