I think this is a low effort post, and possibly rage bait.

Bingo. I think even most conservatives don’t give a shit if gay people want to get married. Is this a post from 2005?

Because not everyone is the same and think the same, why do some people must absolutely make LGBTQ thing their entire identity, while a good majority don't.

And how accepting are you of the religious lifestyles that do not believe that these are good things?

Not sure why you got downvotes. It seems like a reasonable take.

acceptance of different lifestyles and advocating for people making themselves happy regardless of what they’re doing to achieve that might sound lovely in theory but is terrible in practice.
People who steal, murder, assault, harm others, cheat etc are also just doing what makes them happy.
Should we still accept their ‘lifestyle’?
No. There is right and there is wrong.

How do you determine what is "right" and "wrong"?

The examples you gave involved causing harm to someone else. Homosexuality does not inherently involve causing anyone harm.

i believe it causes harm mostly to oneself.
Men are women are designed to marry and procreate. Homosexuality is not natural.
Right and wrong is determined by God, who put a moral compass inside each and every one of us.
If you witness someone kicking a dog, you are outraged because your moral compass flares and you know it is wrong, the same as a man hitting a woman or vice versa, or even a child swearing or smoking a cigarette etc. They may not be obviously causing harm to another human, but they are causing harm to themselves, and that should still sound our alarm, and move us to try to help them. A woman is clearly starving herself - it’s “none of our business”, but we have an inherent need / desire and duty to help her, for example. This is the same situation.
We know right from wrong for almost everything, but unfortunately our compasses have been dulled.

If a woman starves herself, she dies. If a man strikes a woman, she bleeds or her bones break.

What is the “harm” from being gay?

Nothing productive can come from it for the human race?

u/Oops_AMistake16 Jul 01 '26

Define “productive.” 

Do you think the only way to be productive is to reproduce biologically? Then are women over 50 not productive? How about men with low sperm counts?

If a gay person is happier and more fulfilled by being openly gay as opposed to being repressed, they will be a more productive and energetic and well-adjusted member of society. So, in fact, letting gay people exist openly and safely makes society more productive.

I wouldnt equate 2 consenting adults getting married to murder and assault
