The Continual Push to Promote Homosexuality

So the hot topic of the week is also about newly revived gay rights and how even though gay marriage is becoming legal in more and more states including my own, it still isn't enough. Why? Because religions must be compelled to for now, allow it. The next step of course will be to celebrate it, or will it? I've always said that by allowing gay marriage it would not be enough for the LGBT community, eventually they will want all organizations, groups, and individuals to embrace it. This article says it all. 

So let's not get into a debate as to whether your sexual orientation is hereditary or not because that can go either way. With evidence that supposedly supports one side, as well as the other. My belief is that it's a choice, and I have ample evidence that can support that notion, but that can be a discussion for another time.

So privately owned businesses can refuse services to people for whatever reason unless of course they actually do it, then they get in trouble. And apparently allowing privately owned businesses to do it means somehow public-sector ones can too? Not sure how that works. People like this guy can elect to take themselves out of the equation, and that should be allowed.  Yet he still came under fire because people can't stand the fact that someone somewhere wasn't being forced to bend over backwards, catering to their self-serving whims. The decision had no effect on anyone whatsoever except himself, yet the ones involved still threw a hissy fit and demanded that the student's rights not be respected. Basically, they literally infringed upon his rights even though he did no such thing to them, as if they were the only ones deserving of any rights at all. To clarify, he elected to remove himself, not have others removed to accommodate him, and the women got mad at him for not willingly being part of their group.

That's what I feel like the LGBT is doing to those who wish to abstain from their lifestyle, they are invading the space of others.

Being deeply religious I don't understand why anyone would want to be part of something that isn't accepting of their lifestyle unless of course they were compelled through spite. If a privately owned business doesn't want to recognize gay marriage, so be it, even if it's to their detriment, that is their right. It offends you? Well so what, all you are doing is whining. Your complaint has no merit, no purpose, no point. You are offended? So what? Do I not have rights? Or do you have all the rights to the point where I cannot do anything without your approval, and I have to go out of my way to make you comfortable? Does everything have to be at my expense and cater to your every whim and selfish desire? If so, then you are promoting slavery, and when you demand that the government step in and enforce it, its tyranny. I guess that's what someone who gets offended at others really wants, to be put on a pedestal, and to have me be the pedestal.

This is what frustrates me about it all, that there are some people who have rights, but that isn't enough. Everyone else must yield to their rights, their whims, their beliefs, as if they are the only ones deserving of any rights at all.  

This is basically what it amounts to when someone wants to silence the other simply because they have a dissenting opinion, they pretend they are all about tolerance and acceptance, yet call anyone who opposes their view point a bigot and their opinion hate speech.

I'm all for people being free to make choices, but those choices need to have consequences, whether good or bad, and we need to respect peoples choices as well as their rights to make those choices. Religion is a protected right, and being able to practice my religion free from outside influence should be a right. Someone who is homosexual can go another way, they can start their own religion if they so desire. The same goes for employment. Why would you want to work somewhere where people aren't accepting of your lifestyle? What, you have nowhere else to go? Who's fault is that, and why should I have to fix that problem for you?

If homosexuals want the right to marry, so be it. Let the government honor that and allow them a civil marriage. Don't force private organizations like entire churches to practice same-sex marriage. If someone is heterosexual and wants to surround themselves with like-minded people, let them, don't force them to celebrate the homosexual lifestyle. They can do so without infringing upon the rights of LGBT community. I mean are we forcing white people to have black friends, or vice versa? Or fraternities and sororities to accept members of the opposite sex? Or US citizens to celebrate foreign holidays? Well we kind of are, and that needs to stop too (there are a dozen examples of this), but the point still stands.
