That is fine if you believe that, but I disagree, and believe it is a choice. Some people may be more prone to it, but it is still a choice. Please no flames here people, just stating what I believe.
That's fine if you believe this, but other people will know you're a bigot. You may not like that label, but it was your choice to become a bigot. Just stating what I believe.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8226509.stm Programmer John Graham-Cumming has created a petition to the UK Prime Minister urging him to issue a posthumous apology to Alan Turing who in 1952 was criminally prosecuted for being gay, ending his career and leading to his suicide. Turing was effectively the founder of…
*whoooooooooosh*, There goes my point. Right over your head. It's hard to read someone speak so passionately about bigotry and prejudice remarks when they themselves are being prejudice. I was going to post this earlier based on some of your replies in this thread (and another, I believe) but it was reading you speak about…
I watched Milk the other day. Opened my eyes a little bit. TBH I believe in live-and-let-live, if it isn't directly harming or hurting anyone that isn't involved (and no, "those faggots are against god/are degenerate animals/eat children" doesn't really count). The main thing isn't whether the apology should be issued, or…
If I was resident I'd sign it. Imagine you're Christian in a time where being so wasn't such a good idea. There is nothing wrong with your faith, but for some reason there is a law against it. You believe with all your heart in your faith, but live in fear that one day something will happen to you because of it. So you…
I'm confused...What is stopping your husband from getting a job and his own visa Ben? As far as I know they dont ask your sexual orientation upon entering the country or applying for a visa. I understand that getting a work visa isn't the easiest task (for anyone, regardless of sexual orientation) but it's certainly…
Woah!, so you have me labelled from just that little statement, so what one am I? As it happens I dont agree with the way he was treated and believe it was a tragedy. The same with slavery. A little while ago the government was asked to apologise for slavery the same as this. Apologising for these things now intonates some…
I guess I've never understood why marriage allowed a 'free pass' to citizenship when it's so hard for everyone else. When there are so many loveless marriages it's hard for me to see the fairness in that. It also kind of kills your point about how bad it is to be barred from the place of your birth if you think that place…
POOP! chill out.. i made this thread as a heads up to anyone in the UK to the issue as they can do something about it.. personally i would just love to see Alan Turing in the history books for the hero that he was and his contributions well known, not someone swept under the rug because he was gay, or because the UK is…
