[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with you, 15:15. Sadly, not agreeing with homosexuality equals being a bigot and/or hate-filled. It's a very juvenile argument, but it works for some.  :?

Could you please explain how it isn't bigotry?  For example, if I believe that Jews are abnormal and dysfunctional based on their religion, how is that not anti-semitism?[/quote]

Bigotry and anti-semitism suggest (and usually consist of) hatred. Being in disagreement with something doesn't mean you hate those who participate.

Do you need to hate something for you to disagree with it? [/quote]

But you are disagreeing with who someone is -- who they love, who they are sexually attracted to, who they want to spend their lives with.  There are tons of examples of "benevolent bigotry" -- people who just wanted to "civilize" American Indians, slave owners who just wanted to take care of their slaves, people who thought women shouldn't vote for their own good.  I'm sure the anti-sufferagists didn't hate women. They just thought they weren't equiped to vote.[/quote]

Your analogies aren't logical. I will repeat that being in disagreement with something does not rise to the level of hatred.  [/quote]
