I just thought I would share with you how close minded some people are, and these are the people I talk to on www.ffyr.mtv.com message board everyday.

I am a Christian (nuff said right?) WELL... IF God wanted you to like girls he would make you a boy and if he wanted you to like boys he would have made you a girl....people born with both...usually only one works and the other is a growth... People like to be bad.. Girls like bad danerous guys...guys want what they cant have... God knows whats best for you! and I Love God and trust him and will leave all my future dates and girls that he wants to be in my life up to him.
IF YOUR CURIOUS AS TO WHICH YOU LIKE.. ASK GOD HE'S LISTENING!!!"
So here's what I emailed him:
let me say that if you are truly a Christian, you have some strange beliefs, and aren't very educated.
"I Love God and trust him and will leave all my future dates and girls that he wants to be in my life up to him." - If you believe this, what about free will? God might have a plan for you, but only YOU can decide who to date etc. Even still, your comments seems judgemental towards homosexuality. Who are you to judge? God might know what's best for me, but you don't so I don't value what you have to say.
"IF God wanted you to like girls he would make you a boy and if he wanted you to like boys he would have made you a girl" - The best way for me to combat this statement is to refer to an instance in Texas, where a lesbian couple wanted to marry, but were not allowed to by law. However, a DNA test showed that although one of the women had a vagina and female genetaila she had a "Y" chromosone, which classified her as male, therefore the courts ruled that their marraige would be legal. The two women are still happily married today. Now you tell me why God gave that woman male chromosones? If he wanted her to like boys he would have given her female chromosones right? I'm sorry, but you can't mix religion with politics, religion, and morals because you will get nowhere. Also you might want to arm yourself with a little knowledge before you try to change people's opinions. You are fighting world war 3 with a slingshot. The basic fact that you even said "Girls like dangerous guys" and "People like to be bad" shows that you are generalizing and using stereotypes that are useless garbage when trying to make a convincing argument for yourself. If you think being gay is wrong then more power to you, organize a march or something, we've got freedom of speech.
P.S. I'm a Christian
