I am Christian and I am for gays and lesbians having rights. But I think everyone has the right to their own beliefs. Imposing your own on to others is wrong.

I think that tolerance should be taught, but a need to basis, and I believe that a parent should have some control over what a kid is taught. Like with sex ed, a parent should have to sign something refusing to let the kid take the class. Religion is so divided on the subject so that is probably why it comes up. Personally bullying should be stopped, but a cousin of mine (who is gay) was laughing because he got a kid expelled because the kid ignored him. "It was bullying," said the principal and that I found to be wrong.

I grew up in Northampton,MA, which anyone who Googles it will find out that it has a LARGE gay and lesbian population. The case of religion is always brought up because MOST religions frown upon homosexuality. In regards to bullying, it happens both ways, and unfortunately the gay person will always win because he is a minority.


A gay person wins because he is a minority? Correction: The gay teenage population has a very high suicide rate. If I am not mistaken, it has the highest suicide rate of all populations.

Is that winning?flowerforyou

I am a Christain that believes in gay rights. I believe that people are born gay and do not "become" gay.

minorities are made when a selected group out of the population are denied the same rights as the entire group for any specific reason.
I think the greatest problem with gay rights is that most people still believe homosexuality is a behavioral choice. Until people realize that homosexuality is like heterosexuality (you are born that way) the debate about rights and priviledges for gays will continue as will discrimination.

they already have the same rights as everybody else just because some ppl are ignorant doesnt mean they need to make it an issue im sorry i dont feel sorry for them. dont get me wrong i have gay friends but none of them feel they need to be afforded those rights because they already have them they think its bs we all grew up being picked on we survived they have the jobs they want not because of rights but because they are they best person for it if someone doesnt want to hire them for that then thats ignorant and a product of bigotry bred into them
