So the religion of Islam is supportive of homosexuality?
Haha perhaps it is a mistake, but hey, I feel at peace by thinking in this manner moreso than any other philosophical approach to these sorts of issues. You're right, it might change; but for the time being, the status-quo works for me
Not it is not. The lack of that is one of the major problems with humanity. If there was more love and tolerance and less hate and divison there is nothing the human race would not be able to accomplish.

Are you seriously trolling me right now?
Please re-read my post several times, and see if that answers the question that you've raised in this post.
No, I am actually asking a real question. You seemed so upset that I am not supporting of homosexuals, so I am curious.
And I am wondering why my post was dispointing, but you seemed to have no problem with the personal attacks that preceded it

Ah, I am beginning to see your point.
No, they are not supporting of homosexuals, basically akin to nearly every Judeochristian belief out there. I am not upset that you personally aren't supporting homosexuals, rather, Im disappointed that you seem to have this stance where you want to push your religious beliefs into some sort of state legislation. Alright, let us back track here:
I am a Muslim. As a Muslim, as with other Abrahamic faiths, I find homosexuality quite strange. I understand my faith's stance against it. As a result, I am not exactly BIG on homosexuality, and I know I would probably cry a little if a future child of mine came out gay or something.
HOWEVER: This is simply MY opinion.
Alright, let us just quickly go over something. The United States is a predominately Christian country. As a result, many people of Christian faith feel that it is best if the state adopts some/most of its values (depending on which end of the spectrum you are), seeing as it is the majority, and that it simply makes democratic logic. However, let us quickly consider a hypothetical:
Say you just read a news article about Egypt. Read about a Christian family of 6 not being allowed to worship at a church, or practice any of its faith, due to the fact the majority of the country is Muslim, and that the government chooses to run its legislations non-secularily. As a Muslim, a news-report like this makes me cringe. Im sure its effects on you would be even more filled with disgust.
Now, lets flashback to present-day America. As an atheist, homosexual couple, you find that some of your liberties are taken away from you, simply because the government has chosen to revolve its legal system around a faith that a "majority" of the nation shares. Do you not see the problems that this poses on a grand-scale? If America, of all the ****ing countries out there, can't set an example of how to properly run a secular country, where people can have almost all of their beliefs respected (seeing as it is essentially the backbone of the contraction of this nation)??
So, to answer your question: No, I am not a fan of homosexuality. However, to respond to the second half of your question: Yes, I am disgusted by the fact that you try to push your beliefs onto other people in your country, without considering the notion that "hey, maybe we should respect the views of this group, and not try to force our views onto them". The government of the United States has no place in the bedrooms of the families in America, the saying (sort of) goes.
So, to summarize, although I am not the type of person who appreciates homosexuality, I am all for fighting for the liberties of the people who share their views, and I will gladly agree to any legislation that grants them full, egalitarian liberties, simply due to the fact that everyone deserves the freedom to express any sort of belief (with obvious exceptions, a la KKK).
That is either a really crappy joke, or extreme ignorance.
huh? Oh, so if I don't support the gay agenda and don't support gay marriage, then I am pushing my religious views onto people?
That's interesting.
What about the gays who are trying to force me to accept their views by forcing legislation that is turned down just about everytime the public votes on it?
Remember when segregation was the "in" thing? Remember how many times acceptance of blacks failed? Did that not make it any less important? Pull your head out of your ***.

OK, for the past 2 months, I have been the trainer and nutrition coach for this girl, Ashley.
Yesterday, she competed in an NPC Figure competition and placed. Here is a picture of her with the overall Champ (Ashley is on the left):
Anyway, she did great and she executed my plan to perfection. It's fun to train someone who is so dedicated.
Ewwwww. Sorry, not attractive at all. But hey, I bet she really appreciates the two guys who wanted her number.... You and your other personality.
