I have come accross the following in previous posts:

*Homosexuality is unAfrican. It was brought to Africa by the west.

*There are no animals that engage in homosexual behaviour.

Bigotry and ignorance at their best.

Like which one? Be specific. Just an example.

@Majimaji, what gays want right now is recognition, then same sex marriage then adoption. Are these the kind of rights' you are talking about?

How have you tied these 2 to and with gayism?

The point I am trying to make is that you guys have made 'human rights' to be a cliche. So that when your opponents open fire at you you duck behind blanket 'human rights' for cover.

'Come out' and dance in the open!

Muriel, the reason(s) for heterosexuals not talking about the sexuality, differ from the reason(s) why homosexuals prefer to remain in the closet. And even, don't you think heterosexuals are almost always talking about their sexuality? Take wazua as an example, how do threads on 'fish' and 'landing' fare? Look at the girl/woman walking on the streets look at how the men around are behaving. Showing your heterosexual leanings in the 'appropriate language' earns one admiration and envy. Not so, for homosexuality.

Humans have a right not just to associate with others but to express the truth in these associations. This right has been denied, for example, to the homosexuals.

I'm concerned that in wishing to uphold morality we are losing it, and that instead of Man seeking God's face we are turning away from it, and instead of healing we're offering wounds.

Brother,

You are right about heterosexuals always talking about their orientation in so many words and in so many places.

Lets take the right to associate that you have given. You are also right.

I add, that gays, whether they know it or not, accept it or not, are always 'proselytizing' or seeking 'new' flesh when the euphoria of the 'old' wanes. You know, they are hardly the paragon of monogamy. Think of the revulsion atheists get when they are being proselytized.

The desire to make new friends and associate, if and when the opportunity avails itself, and the accompanying desire to invite these new friends see the 'truth' is a 'right'.

Now suppose paedophiles also claimed this 'human right' to associate and express their truth too,,,,,,,

At some point, claims to 'rights' have got to be tethered and denied. If it is any consolation, even heterosexuals have this 'human right' to associate and express their truth tethered. We could ask the bigamists incidentally in those capitals where these very 'human rights' of association and truth expression are being championed and sent out to the world if their 'rights' of association and truth expression are being honored.

Therefore, I still insist that 'human rights' are not gay rights and the use of 'human rights' as a gay crutch is illogical.

This is brilliant.

I bow down deep in respect.

To 'tether' or 'constrain' rights in a bid to prevent 'conversion' is to say that truthful discussion on sexuality and other aspects of human living is impossible. Otherwise why shouldn't the homosexuals also be proselytized?

Again, heterosexuality isn't by itself better or preferable to homosexuality. What accounts for purity and righteousness is 'Godliness'. An encounter and intimate relationship with 'God'. And it's this encounter that transforms. Denying anyone the freedoms of speech and association is denying him/her this encounter.

If there are people who need human rights, then they are the 'lost'.

Sparkly's theory of human sexuality:- Human sexuality is a continuum between Homosexuality and heterosexuality, where heterosexuality is the extreme. Lets face it women-women bonds are power strong men-men bonds are power strong. Men-Women bonds are only for procreation.

Do you believe the redefinition of marriage BS? How can a gay couple redefine your marriage? By the way the biggest threat to marriage is not homosexuality, if anything, it would be dirvoce!
