Jason Collins came out today...

If you really didn't give a shit, you would have just posted "I don't give a shit" or you wouldn't have posted at all. My reading is just fine, thanks.

Gaining acceptance? Get a clue.

Treated fairly? Oh, you mean by having a big announcement ceremony about their sexuality? That is more than "fair" I would say. Especially when no straight people get a media circus for saying they're straight.

And as for your contradictory statement...you must not be able to read. My problem isn't that he's gay, my problem is that he is getting praised for it like he walked on water. And yes, as a Christian that doesn't believe people can be born gay...I don't want my children to turn on the TV and 9/10 shows have people in gay sexual type scenes as if it's the way it's supposed to be. It's not, in my opinion. That's why 4% of America is Gay, yet 96% of "family TV" is about gay acceptance it seems.

We get it, people can be gay. That's your prerogative, but don't act like gays are still treated unfairly when they dominate the media, and every time someone "comes out" it's a damn National event.

Hell, I'm sure a certain percent of Americans have Chinese decent, but every time someone says they're part Chinese we don't have a press release. Quit acting like if you're gay you're special. You want fair, fair is that you are no more deserving of attention for your sexuality than anyone else. So quit expecting it.

Hey Ronnie and sndawg, u can have an opinion when You have a family. I don't want my girls watching Bubba and Bill doing the big nasty of being exposed to it. We are living the way the bible intended , A man and a woman. How about you being tolerant. The way 96% of America lives.
America was better when Andy and Oppie were on TV, not Jerry springer.

Spot on.

I have a family. And I'm sure sndawg does too.

And who marries whom is none of my business. If you think it's your business, then good luck turning the tide of history, because you've got a huge chore on your hands.

If you want to watch TV shows where queers never kiss & get in the bed with each other, then I can provide you 200 links to TV shows that never show that.

Lastly, if you can show me the scripture where Jesus spoke out against homosexuality, then I would appreciate that link.

And great response. I must have made my point.

Hey drugdog...you're right...anyone can have an opinion, even those who don't have a family, and anyone else can disagree with your opinion.

If you don't want your girls watching Bubba and Bill doing the big nasty, then you shouldn't let them watch gay porn. Nobody is doing the big nasty on TV. And, in case you didn't know, TVs have on/off switches and little buttons that will make it change channels. There are things called 'parental controls.

You go right on living the way the bible intended, cool. I've got no problem with that - how's that for tolerant. And a big part of that 96% doesn't agree with everything you believe...but yet we all live together. Tolerance.

And I agree, Andy and Opie are way, way better than Jerry Springer.

and to off-topic it goes.

[Drugdog]

So Ronnie do u take your family to bourbon street and let them be entertained? Do u go to south Jackson and show them prostitutes? Do u let them watch late night Showtime or cruise the net for porn? Probably not. Why then. You should be more tolerant.
Or are you trying to raise your family the right way?? Do u let let gay men baby sit ur kids. Or lesbians? Be tolerant. Oh it's different when it effects you.
What u say now.
Stings when u are proven wrong.

Jesus never said a word about pedophilia, bestiality, or rape either. Know why? It was understood to be sin and didnt need clarification.

I would let a gay person babysit my child. Why wouldn't I?

Also, which TV show includes gay/lesbian sex scenes? I literally want you to list a few, since apparently it's a struggle to shield your kids from the gay sex scenes all over your TV. The only one I can think of is a single lesbian scene in Game of Thrones (which isn't appropriate for kids obviously, regardless of the scene), and comes on HBO, which you can only see if you intentionally order and pay for.

I had to leave in the middle of the debate on SPS, but I thought you were 100% spot on in that discussion.

First of all, I would probably let a gay person babysit...but not a gay couple babysit together.

And as for the gay scenes....Modern Family, The New Normal, Scandal, etc. and that's just ABC I think.

I know you weren't directing it at me, but that's the few parts of your question I can answer. Like I said, if you're gay that's fine, but why do we have to make a spectikal of it?

Never heard of Scandal, but I don't doubt you. Nonetheless, none of those shows have actual gay sex scenes, just gay characters. (Unless Scandal does, but I would be surprised).

Thanks. We make up the minority for sure though

[swdawg]

Ooooh...you got me there. Great response. I know I shouldn't even respond because you won't stop responding until you say you wouldn't mind if I died, or something like that. Genius.

All 3 have shown gay men kissing. That's a sex scene to me when it comes to kids seeing it. And it's on a standard cable channel. If it was only on Showtime or something I wouldn't have near the issue with it. I just don't want it on my normal channels as "family TV"

That should get soccer plenty of time on sportscenter

Thanks for adding to the discussion. Again.

And thanks for keeping up with my past posts. I hope you enjoy them.

[swdawg]

You're welcome...I have enjoyed many of them. You just showed something in your posts in this thread that I hadn't seen before from you. It's cool...carry on.

Thanks for adding to the discussion. Again.
