Homosexuality encouraged in schools.

But equally, you shouldn't put yourself through a life of reckless pleasure at the expense of others should you? That's my rationale here, it's what I try to live by.

I'm not saying my character is flawlessly strong or that I'm a better person than others, but I really try to act morally(or what I consider to be moral behaviour) and homosexuality is sadly unacceptable to me.

Also I'm not singling out homosexuality here, there are many other things that are unacceptable as defined by my religious views and my own moral judgment.

I'm not insecure at all . I have a strong enough character to do the right thing and never let down those who love me. It's simple for me.

yeah you keep telling yourself that....

I don't see why I'm having this argument with you.

You rejected the BNP article accusing it of being bigoted and ignorant, yet you continue to force your silly, false point across to me even though I've told you otherwise twice now? That seems to be a little hypocritical; resorting to ignorant, repetitive and nonsensical attacks are trademarks of the BNP.

Homosexuality isn't "reckless pleasure". What's reckless about being with someone you love? And if they are in a loving relationship, it's not just about pleasure (although there's an element of that in EVERY sexual relationship).
No on should expect anyone to be someone they're not just to keep them happy. If your family dislike who you are, and you're not doing anything actually wrong, they are in the wrong.

But there's the thing, your moral compass is different to mine .

So being gay would let them down?! They obviously don't love you very much

Yes obviously, but you're came on saying how un-natural and wrong homosexuality is, when it's not. If your only argument is that "i believe it's wrong", then there wasn't much point there.

I think they love me very much . Why would I ever want to put my family in the position where they have to choose between their own system of morality defined by their religion and their son? I would never ever want to present them with that terrible choice, no matter what "genetic" urges I would have to contain, both matter very much to them and the decision would cause them a lot of pain. That's what I mean by "let them down", I would hurt them.

Wait ... so gay people are born into a world where 90% World population sees them as morally wrong, a large portion of whom would like to see them dead, could possibly face rejection from their friends and family and face being stereotyped and stigmatized on a daily basis even in the most tolerant of societies and YOU'RE the one with the strong character? Right .

I believe that it's immoral and therefore wrong as the bottom line. I have formed that belief on primarily religious grounds.

Arguably, not acting upon homosexual urges for an entire lifetime shows stronger character than waiting a few years and coming out to a society that is very tolerant. I accept that this is all very subjective though, so...you may be right, who knows.

I'm confused. By your own moral standards, is it only the feelings of your family you put before your own, or is it that something you believe you should do in all instances?

Yes, I get that.
My point is, if that's all you have to base it on, why come on here telling us how wrong it is and un-natural when that's not the case? You have nothing else to base it on, so it seems pretty pointless.

What about a homosexual relationship where they don't have sex, for example, they only kiss? They are (for some strange reason) waiting until marriage? Is this acceptable?

Did the thread not demand opinionated answers? I apologise if you think it didn't.
