Why are any of you people any less bigoted than the anti-gay poster? You rail against his opinions and make judgements on his character.
He simply made a choice, for whatever reason, to think this way. But why couldn't his nature have led him to this choice also? Saying things are all right just based on genetic tendencies is kind of a slippery slope don't you think?
I don't agree that gay folk are bad, but he's got the right to think so, or our freedoms of speech and religion are just so much crap on a cracker. If we have a right to believe something, then we have a right to believe that everybody else is wrong. Otherwise we will all have to believe all of the same things. Who then gets to choose what is right? I guess our benevolent government will figure out what is best for us to believe and instil all of these things into our children for us. Etc......
Intolerance is also a choice, live with it. When people are free to choose, then they will make choices we don't agree with. Some of those choices will make us mad, one way or another.
