    We are of the animal kingdom - we share most of the same genetic material and our bodies are *very* similar to that of mammals, even down to having the same kinds of bones and nerves.  How dare you assume what God is made of - the bible was written by MAN, not God, so it is flawed.  How dare you also assume God has a gender and is male!  A Penis also fits elsewhere dear -- if you don't think so, study some anatomy and being gay is not all about sex just as the article is not all about sex, but bonding, etc.  The mucousal lining of the anus and mouth are very similar to the vagina -- that's why you can get diseases of any of these anywhere these mucosa exist.  Vaginas are also where dead/putrid uteral material is expelled from.  You are right that God will forgive you for your hate, but you also have a responsibility to love your neighbor and all created things.  You have the perverted thoughts it seems.

    • Lori Lori United States says:

      From a medical perspective, the anus is by far the "dirtiest" of openings in the body! The shedding of a woman's uterus is a very natural process for a woman,and cleanses the womb to prepare for a growing human being! You are obviously a gay "man" who does not believe in a higher authority than yourself! You are participating in immoral sexual behavior. It is about sex, not bonding! As a homosexual, you will never understand what bonding truly means!Your own words show that you are the one with the hate...don't try to hide behind a forgiving God that you obviously don't follow!

      • Wally Wally Canada says:

        I have never in my life, witnessed any one person, sect, group, organization or otherwise, promote hate and indignaties, more than do those of a very high percentage of the christian belief. I am virtually, always astounded at how they, more than anyone, continue to judge and undermine those outside their level of thinking! I show no degree of surprise that their narrow minded belief system has contributed more to upheaval and brutality on the planet, than any other single event, since the dawning of the evolution of our species. Homosexuality, gaylifestyle or whatever one chooses to label it, is here to stay, always was and will remain so until the sun ceases to shine. And what of mankind, including Homosexuals, who lived here many thousands of years before the arrival of Christianity and subsequently, the bible? Are they doomed to this place they call, Hell, too? Oh no. I forgot. "Christianity applies only to those who lived from the time of Constantine, 353 A.D or so," I can hear them say. I have total regard for anyone who might find comfort in any form of spirituality but don't delude yourself into thinking that you are some rightful messenger, here to preach and broadcast to me, about matters concerning my life. I am gay, and truthfully happy and content in my skin. If there is a problem with that, then THAT is EXACTLY what it is! Your problem! NOT mine! Get over it!                

        • David David Canada says:

          One of the comments that seems to be repeated over and over is that homosexuality is a choice. I have only ever heard heterosexual people say this. I am heterosexual myself - but I have only ever heard from homosexual people that being gay is a part of who they are, and that it's something they realize and decide to accept about themselves, not something they decide to be. I have never heard a homosexual person say that they have decided to be gay.

          This is an interesting article about the subject that I found - I believe this, that homosexuality is a result of both biological and environmental factors:

          And as you yourself state Glenda, if "annual sex is where our bowel movements come from", I imagine you must be pretty constipated by now. It sure sounds like it.

            Thank you!!
            Homosexuality is NOT a choice.
            There are so many people who are killed because they're gay, and sooooo many gay teens who kill themselves because they've realized that this world isn't ready for them to be gay. WHO WOULD CHOOSE THAT?! Who would choose to be ridiculed? Who would choose to be hated by everyone around them?

            Homosexuality is not a choice, and anyone who says it is is just making the assumption that they chose to be straight. A little heads up: you didn't choose it, you just happen to be that way, and you're happy with it.

        They don't shed the Uterus... rather the placenta!

      • Kim Kim United Kingdom says:

        News for you:

        - Straight people have anal sex too
        - Not all gay men have anal sex

        I'm also interested in the special extra gay diseases the OP references. Pray tell?

        • Kat Kat United States says:

          No they don't.   Straight people by definition do not have anal sex, that would denote the death of a "straight" identity and the birth of a bisexual identy.  Logic and discipline are the only barriers that either save or destroy a rightful identity, with enough one can abondon venture, without, one succumbs.

          • Lithp Lithp United States says:

            "Logic." You clearly don't know what it means.

            By definition, a straight person is someone who is not attracted to the same sex. If a man sticks his penis in a woman's anus, it is not gay. If a woman puts a strap on dildo into a man's anus, she is not gay, & you have only circumstancial evidence that he is.

            Not only that, according to your "logic" that defines someone's sexual orientation by what type of intercourse they perform, everyone is gay. Watch & learn:

            Oral sex? Could be done by two men. It's gay.

            Vaginal intercouse? Could be done by two women with a strap on. It's gay.

            69: Could be done by two men OR two women. It's gay.

            Unless you're trying to say that this ONLY counts for anal sex & heterosexual MEN, in which case you apparently think that a woman's ass resembles that of a man's & that lesbians do not exist.

            Either way, you clearly did not think this through.

          • Lyuba Tereshchenko Lyuba Tereshchenko Canada says:

            And who made you the expert on what heterosexuals do in the privacy of their bedrooms. Some straight people DO have anal intercourse. Straight people are attracted to the opposite gender; bisexuals are attracted to both genders. Logic and discipline have nothing to do with it. Your odd words are truly daft.

            • Kat Kat United States says:

              An education, wherein I learned that anal sex is illegal and immoral, filthy and called sodomy from a biblical text.  Now all you have too do is study the anatomy to determine if you actually had sex from the body cavity from which it pertained.  Einstein.  

              • Lithp Lithp United States says:

                Homo (same) sexual (duh).

                Even if it is "sodomy," "immoral," "evil," & whatever else, it is still not gay.

                Maybe logic isn't the flaw in your education. Maybe it's just the fact that your limited grasp of English makes you nearly incomprehensible. "Had sex from the body cavity from which it pertained"? Well, to be fair, Einstein failed English too. But I'm not holding my breath for the day you reconcile Newtonian & Quantum Physics!

              • Tanukisan Tanukisan Australia says:

                Really? Einstein? You know, you think someone with that high an IQ would know how to use English properly. Why don't you provide the actual text from which this "quote" is taken? I won't hold my breath.

              • Lyuba Tereshchenko Lyuba Tereshchenko Canada says:

                Wow, lady you really should learn more about sexuality. As I've said earlier, the bible has no bearing with me; I'm an Asatruar. Anal sex is not illegal where I am. It's not immoral and if you have good hygiene, it's not filthy.

                You're funny, Kat; are you available for small dinner parties? I need a stand-up act.

                З Новим Роком!
                Happy New Year in the words of my people. Smile

    • astrid astrid Norway says:

      The article clearly states, animals. Last time I checked, I didn't widdle a shiv to stick in my box or rub my genitals up against a tree.  Not comprehending the fear and threat some of the Christians resonate about homosexuality.  (Being raised in Scandinavian where these topics aren't approachable for discussion). God grants them so much grace but can't relieve that fear that grows into that putrid display of hate and a missed grammar class. Or five.
      I take issue with a garden of vaginas getting slandered because of a religious nutter who can't spell anus. Each of us came from one. Ueber respect vaginas.
      Sure, the article seems biased. So much research is. Educate yourself.  Read, study and then discuss.  Or, start flinging excrement onto a comment blog.
