If I could put a similar picture in my back and walk in all the streets of New York , I would do it, unfortunately I can't.
because there are people who keep mistaking me for a straight guy when Iam out.[/size]
Come now Maximo, there are outfits you can wear that would leave no one guessing.........besides, your love of French and fashion are dead giveaways.
Now and days in New york a lot of people do recognize someone who's gay , lesbian etc for the most part.
Not only because there's a large LGBT population in New york, but also because of the LGBT movement asking for equality etc.
I will not take the chance to put a picture like that on my shirt, I know there are psycho hateful people like gunner out there. Even though there are laws in place , but it's just me .
I do know gay guys who wear all kind of things just to show they are gay so that people don't need to wonder.
Maximo just keeps supporting me.
You, like the rest of your boys, are vile, hate filled, bigoted, and ignorant.
That's the GAY community.
And it's ugly.
The remainder are simply Christian bigots.
They are Black, which means they are Democrat's, which means they are anti-Christian, and pro-Secular.
They are intellectual sheep, but honestly believe they are "progressive".
As I said from the beginning, the GAY and FAR LEFT communities are the most bigoted, hate-filled, groups in the USA.
They are seething with hate and live their lives on a hair pin trigger; anxious to let that HATE spew forth.
"Homophobia is like racism and anti-Semitism and other forms of bigotry in that it seeks to dehumanize a large group of people, to deny their humanity, their dignity and personhood."
I dont think so..I find it insulting when people try to compare homophobia with racism. I have said gays are for the most part nice people and bring property value up..LOL.what they do in their house and carry on in public is there business but don't expect me to agree with it. They are even trying to make the super hero come out the closet. so disgusting as they are targetting the young and fresh mind to think this is normal behavior..teaching kids to like the same sex...
Vice, you can't TEACH kids or anyone to like the same sex or the opposite sex.....they either do or they don't.
Bigotry is bigotry, but one can conceal his/her sexuality, but not race. I am not homophobic in no way shape or form, one of my closest friends is a homosexual guy who wears glitter pink shirts and short shorts. He as a flamboyant guy even agrees, if you're willing to stand out to be different be ready to deal with the criticism. A homosexual male can conceal his sexuality, but not so much his race. If anyone is wondering I DO NOT believe that homosexuality is a sex. Homosexuality is a gender or chosen lifestyle. I know I can’t control what people do in public, but I would prefer not knowing or seeing what people do behind closed doors, and that goes for both homosexuals and heterosexuals alike.
That is very true, but Maximo's battle is with his inner-self and not me.
But every Christian, including myself, holds out hope that he will return someday.
There is no order in nature for homosexual conduct.
It produces nothing.
So if we take "religion" out of the picture; you're left with nature that adamantly opposes homosexual conduct.
It must be forced, fabricated, because nature doesn't accomodate it.
But then, nature is God's creation, so that is fitting as well.
I don't think Maximo is going thru any inner battle....he seems to be quite at ease with his preference.
...hope that he will return to what??? did he tell you he was a christian??
actually it is in nature among almost all species.
a lot of actions produce nothing....and many actions produce things/people of no worth.
nothing forced or fabricated....he sees a man's dick...his dick gets hard.........a straight man sees a vagina his dick gets hard....there is nothing else to it....nothing to analyze.
no amount of prayer will make his dick hard for a vagina....and no amount of influence is going to make the straight man's dick get hard for dicks.......it's that simple GUNNER.
You said "take religion out of it" then followed with "nature is god's creation....tsk tsk tsk GUNNER...you are slipping.
Bigotry is bigotry, but one can conceal his/her sexuality, but not race. A homosexual male can conceal his sexuality, but not so much his race.
1. People should not have to conceal their sexuality or their race or their ethnicity......just to make others feel comfortable. Haitians did a lot of that in the 80s and 90s.
2. And NO...not everyone can conceal their sexuality......the feminine gay and the butch lesbian cannot....no matter how hard they try.
This emphasis on hiding stuff and sticking one's head in the sand is the reason so many women end up in tears on Oprah and Springer crying "i had no idea my hazzzban was sleepinn with other men....boo hoo hoo".....lol..lol.
just like that old woman who went to jamaica...picked up this young boy...and wrote that silly book "how stella got her groove back"
Now she is furious cause the boy/man is gay...and she feels betrayed...lol...when one look at the dude and you can see HOMO stamped right on his forehead...but the silly cougar was blinded by lust.
Stop the silliness and let everyone be open and honest about who they are.
"Homophobia is like racism and anti-Semitism and other forms of bigotry in that it seeks to dehumanize a large group of people, to deny their humanity, their dignity and personhood."

i agree. homosexuality, in my humble opinion, is a chosen life style. i fume with fire when people try to equate what african-americans went through in america with gay people's rights.

I know there are psycho hateful people like gunner out there. [/size]
GUNNER is not hateful Maximo.
He has religious beliefs that he holds dear....but he is not advocating violence.
To effectively fight your battle, you have to understand where the other side is coming from.
i don't think gunner hates anyone (except maybe clinton and farmer). he has his religious views. at one point, i felt the way gunner feels. but when i thought my nephew was gay after i found a love letter from a boy in his pocket, i couldn't abandon him for that. i spoke to him and i explained to him that he wouldn't be treated any different. i was relieved though to find out the letter wasn't his, that he had to deliver it.
i have a ton of gay students, i can't treat them any other way except like students. if i were to find out that my son was gay, i'd be disappointed because of my religious views, but he would still be my son and i wouldn't treat him any other way but like my son.
my problem with homosexuals is not that they are gay--they have feelings for people of the same gender. i don't think people can control their feelings. my issue with homosexuals is that they are always in your face. they violate your right in order to express their rights. they remind me of the jews who wear "i'm a jew" badge, but then if you call them jews they right aware shout "anti-semite" and then they go into a violent rage.
i don't know maximo. he has never done anything to me or said anything against me on hx. i respect his views. i appreciate the info he shares with us on hx. however, he falls in the category of the "i'm a jew" badge wearing jew. i don't know why he lashes out.
gunner reminds me of my dad. Ain't been to church since somebody last died in our family (20 years); but, he just know that homosexuality is wrong 'cause he be a Christian! Goes to my sistah's house, won't speak to her lesbian lover, outta general principal until he want's to borrow a dollar! Yet he know my sistah been gay ALL her life and his deceased son too; but, daddy STILL hoping. Guessing he figure if he ignore it it ain't happening. Not only that he got one that is in VODUN...worshipping the devil....according to daddy. The man STILL trying to figure out what the hell he did wrong....Didn't those white teachers tell him that his children were gifted?.....po' daddy.

and you believed your nephew's story of being the postman huhhh....lol....lol...lol
But seriously folks....if you can't stand by your religious beliefs because it now affects a family member...then you are a hypocrite in the eyes of god.
The bible is the word of god.....and the perfect god does not change his views to accommodate man's modern ways.
What the bible say about slavery, women's place, adulterers, wearing of certain cloth, men laying with men as they do with women.....thousands of years ago......still stands today.
If you can't accept the word of god in its entirety....then your faith does not have a leg to stand on.

Funny thing is....that is the same thing others accuse black people of doing.
Blacks want to be included into everything.....white people have no place to hide and hang among themselves...without being called racists.
A jew that goes into a violent rage if you call him a jew?????? where is that Tijoe????

Actually boo baby the bible IS NOT the word of God. It is a book INSPIRED by God. In particular the Old Testament is a HISTORY of the children of Israel and how God/Spirits dealt with those children. The New Testament were letters to the churches and written by men who claimed apostleship of Jesus Christ to whom they claim was/is the Son of God. I see elements of the Spirits and the Creator in all organized religions; but, none of them got it 100% correct. We were made in the image of these spirits/God; but, we are IMPERFECT and as such often put our own prejudices inside even when dealing with divine things.
THEREFORE I leave it to each man/woman to ANSWER to the Creator, when the time comes, because we will ALL be judged. And this isn't Christianity I'm talking but pure spirit work (vodun) which has been here since before Creation itself and is as old as the spirits themselves. I have stood in the presence of divinities, walked the roads of the dead, seen the faces of demons, layed in forest, cemeteries and fought the forces of evil. And not at one time do I feel that I as well as any other human can judge anybody. But one think is correct....God/Spirits don't change only man does.
BTW JC....Boy why don't you just come on and let Wedosi initiate you, into vodun, so we can gone get this thang over with..... Damn, I'se getting older by the min.
