    That's fucking idiotic.

    If that was true, then certain places would be filled with gay people, and others with straight people.

    Alright, I'm sorry. I've got my views, and I find it hard to explain them. I don't mean to offend anyone. I'm just not good at defending my point of view. I don't have any problems with your opinions, and I'm sorry if I act ignorant. I am 100% serious with this post, and I'm done with this topic. I'll be watching the Gold Cup Final.

    You didn't answer my question. Are straight couples that choose not to have children just as bad as gay people?

    define just as bad?

    Do they deserve the same words said about them as gay people have in this thread?

    I haven't said anything bad about gay people and i'm not 100% sure what has been posted in this thread so i can't answer this.

    Yea the Gay's are immune to the worst STD of all!


    I'm all for it, couldn't care about who or what you wanted to marry, it's a silly concept. There shouldn't be special rights for people who decide to marry or unionize or whatever you'd want to call it. Not saying i never will be married because of that standpoint, its a great celebration and all but you could just as easily have the celebration on your own and not having to get papers on it or it being legal. On one point i am confused about it is that some gay couples want to be married in churches and temples, but maybe thats just me, missing something in the whole religion thing.

    The feelings would still exist. While the actions might not be there, the feelings would. You cannot help who you are attracted to.

    Love is the most natural thing in the world. Are you telling me that love cannot exist between two members of the same sex?

    Many gays commit suicide, because they have being hiding there sexuality, because they are ashamed of what others may think of them if they came out?

    They don't choose to be gay.

    I find Pique to be very handsome, he is a great football player, and if I personally knew him, I might enjoy his company. Doesn't mean I want to have sex with him. There is not wrong at all with finding someone physically attractive (even the same sex).

    Just out of interest. As polygamy has been mentioned in here would you find it acceptable for a woman to have multiple husbands or is it solely one man to multiple wives.

    That's healthy. Because if you continue with your faith after questioning it, you become stronger in that faith. If you decide to leave your faith, then you know that you didn't really believe in it to begin with.

    I don't believe being gay is a choice, It is a environmental thing.

    Really?

    That's fucking idiotic.

    If that was true, then certain places would be filled with gay people, and others with straight people.

    There are certain places that have a high gay population. Laughing

    Got any evidence to back up this claim?

    I don't have the statistics, but cities are more likely to have a higher gay population than rural areas. Some states like New York and California have a higher gay population.

    In Islam, only men can have a maximum of 4 wives at a time. Women can only marry one man at a time, but they can marry several during a lifetime. Here are some reasons why women are not allowed to marry more than one man at a time...

    First of all, men were allowed to marry more than one woman at a time because the male population was decreasing due to deaths in war. Since the Muslim population was small in it's infancy, God permitted men to marry a maximum of 4 women at a time to increase the population. In order to marry more than one woman, a man had to treat each wive equally.

    1) The identity of a child would be uncertain. This might not be a big deal these days with modern science, but it was in the past.

    2) Since the main purpose of allowing multiple spouses was to increase the population, a woman with multiple men cannot have more babies than a man with multiple women. A woman is born with a certain number of eggs while a man can produce millions of sperm throughout his life.
