Okay I need opinions here ? Actually more like help ?

Question

When I was back in the USA visiting a few seculars/unbelievers whom saw that I was a Christian and for some reason they believe that everything I think of is homosexuality or that I focus on homosexuals non stop or that I'm obsessed or something but that's not true ... yes homosexuality is immoral and an abomination but I have a life and they don't seem to get this ... personally I think that they are the ones whom focus too much on this ... also I would like to know another thing ... why do they say that just because someone states that homosexuality is an abomination that that same person is a homosexual him or herself ? Where's the logic in that ? I mean for example I state ( according to Yahweh ) that homosexuality is an abomination yet they assume that I'm a homosexual ? Isn't that self hate according to them ? I really don't understand this

Answer 1

"The lady doth protest too much, methinks". It is commonly accepted that when someone denies something vehemently that it may actually be a way of covering up an embarrassing truth about themselves. We often hate the characteristics of others because they uncomfortably remind us of the very things about ourselves that we can't come to terms with. So yes, it could be called self-hatred and in your case I really don't blame you. You are only loving others as you love yourself. If you want some sort of sympathy, maybe you should try a different section of y.a.!

Answer 2

i don't understand it either. they are being quite immature.

and it bugs the c**p out of me when people get mad at you because homosexuality is against your beliefs..

its like "chill out.. just because i don't believe in it, you don't have to spazz out at me" i have never met/seen/hear of a homosexual person who isn't extremely immature about their lifestyle choice. i don't mean to be offensive although i realize it's probably going to offend people anyway. i'm sorry but it's like someone telling me they are Jewish and me saying "EXCUSE ME? YOU DON'T THINK JESUS IS THE MESSIAH? well i think you're wrong! i believe he was! so you should believe the same thing as me, because it's the only right thing!"

i HATE it

and sorry if you don't agree with my example

and sorry to the questioner.. that i kind of went on on a rant there

Answer 3

Its because of stats out there there are actual stats that show that 75% of the time people who hate homosexuals are g*y themselves. If you fall into the 25% I guess good for you but sweetie i suggest you stop calling people an abomination because there you are actually committing a sin of throwing wrath to others and the only one who has a right to the that is God himself not you. That is where all you religious people p**s me off.  

Answer 4

To be honest I don't care if you are obsessed with g**s or if you are a repressed self-hating closet g*y (I doubt you are).

As far as I'm concerned you and people like you are self-righteous religious bigots and it means nothing to me how much time you spend focused on things that don't concern you like other people's sexuality. You disgust me.

Answer 5

I don't know, but are you quite through calling all of us an abomination?  I surely hope so.

Immature and insecure....hmm......interesting.  I distinctly read the word "abomination" THREE times in your answer.  How would you like it if I simply went into the religion and spirituality section and kept calling who you are an abomination?  I think you'd start to take offense when you have to see it a HUNDRED times a day.  This isn't the first time someone came into this forum and said words like that to us.  Let me say this clearly so that you all will understand.....

Don't go into a specific community just to throw words of hate around and then act like you don't understand where all the venom comes from.  The venom comes from being put down and being called names EVERY SINGLE day from people like you and frankly, I think we've just had enough.  So if you come in here and keep calling our lifestyle an "abomination" then I guess you reap what you sowe.

Answer 6

They don't think it's self hate, they think it's denial. Like when you were 9 little boys called little girls gross instead of admitting that they liked them. Some people that hate g**s do so because they're actually g*y themselves and in trying to hide it or convince themselves they're not g*y they go to the other extreme of hating g**s.

Don't worry though, I believe that you just think homosexuality is wrong because you're religious. Nobody but a Christian would have the nerve to come into the g*y second on Yahoo Answers and call homosexuality an abomination THREE F***KING TIMES and not realise that they're being insulting and disrespectful. (Not to mention expecting the people you've just insulted three times to give you a proper answer to your question)

I generally feel pity for the religious because I honestly believe you could be getting so much more from your life if you just gave up 'faith' and opened your eyes to the world around you. I feel even more pity for you because you seem to have no idea that it's wrong to hate based on sexual preference or anything else outside of ones control. If you don't 'get it' it's because you're mind is closed by your religion and until you open your mind and begin to use your brain to think logically and for yourself you will never 'get it'.

Oh and I'm not g*y so this isn't me being personally offended by your statements, I just think you're moronic.

Edit: To the person above me. Homosexuality is not a belief system like Christianity or Judaism and comparing it to such only goes to show your ignorance. You can't not believe in homosexuality. You believe that it is real, you just think that it's wrong and that the people that partake in it are sinners. There's a BIG difference there.

Answer 7

People make the claim that religious people like yourself are closeted g**s because on occasion the truth is that a homophobic person acts that way to hide from themselves.

I highly doubt in your case that you are in fact homosexual.

Still, deeming homosexuality as some type of immoral act is ridiculous. The bible also says the eating seafood is an abomination. So maybe you should go start protesting outside of seafood restaurants.

I mean all sins are suppose to be equal, right?
