"In response to Hallmark now selling gay wedding cards"
er it’s forcing me to explain to my kids why two men or two women are doing what they are doing.
I have to explain that nature did not intend for two of the same sex to be together and that they like to be together for perverted sexual acts

And the problem is?

Ah, now I see the problem. Stop making shit up. There, problem solved.

Even if homosexuality is a defect, what exactly would be the problem with it? Man to man, man to woman, or woman to woman, it's still love, a touch, a kiss, intercourse, and all the rest of it. They aren't hurting anyone, so why bother them?

Oh, is that why fundies get in a fuss about having to explain homosexual relationships? Because they have to make sure to toss in a few value judgments and put it into sermon form, as well as just babble about how it is all about icky, promiscuous sex and nothing more? Kind of funny, though I pity the children...

No you don't.
Also, what's all this nature crap? I thought nature was the enemy of fundies?
So... if a gay guy loves a gay guy, how exactly is that affecting my relationship with my girlfriend or your relationship with your wife at all?
Wait... and you're describing "perverted sexual acts" to your kids?!
This reminds me of a joke:
A little girl sees 2 spiders mating in the garden.
And again: If explaining homosexuality to your children is your worst problem, praise the Lord!
@Mattural Selection: Nice one.
Following your logic, neither should Hallmark make cards for Deir-el-Feith or Hannukah, don't you think?. And by the way, in which ways could your kids know about those cards, UNLESS YOU BUY THEM ONE?
Is it really too much of a stretch to imagine?
er it’s forcing me to explain to my kids why that colored boy is at the lunch counter and what it is he is doing there.
I have to explain that nature did not intend for two of the same race to be eating together and that those shiftless people are there for criminal acts
I can only imagine what you define as perverted sexual acts. I'm sure that you have a very long list that can be committed between men and women, let alone members of the same sex.
The funny thing is that these kids don't have any clue about homosexuality but seem to have a clear understanding of what a perverted sexual act is. Well, maybe that's not funny.
A saw the card in question online. It was a picture of two tuxedos next to each other. This is all it takes to make a fundy kneel down in a card shop and explain anal sex and dildos to five-year-old. Amazing!!
How about just telling your child that sometimes a man or woman falls in love with someone of the same sex and leave the graphic details until they ask you about it. Jeez!!
Hallmark is not forcing you to do anything. They are merely catering to homosexuals in the hopes of attracting more business. Just like Disney World, McDonalds, and stores that say "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas." Those stores realize that there is great diversity among their potential customers, so they do whatever they can to appeal to them.
so, to you love is evil, and sex except that witch you have done is perverted. Well then, fuck you.
Telling your child that those two me/women are in love is not that hard
Oh gosh it's forcing you to acknowledge something you think is icky. I'm so sorry.
Considering you just tell your kids it's wrong and try to make them into bigots anyway I don't see what the problem is.
"they like to be together for perverted sexual acts"
Actually, I'm with my partner because I love and respect him. He's a kind and generous man who makes me laugh and who seems only to want the best in life for me.
The perverted sexual acts are a bonus, though, I'll grant you that.
other animals form strong friendships between same sex partners. Its not neccessarily sexual but they support each other, companionship, help with food and grooming.
Its not hard to explain to a kid unless you start wirh sex.
I don't understand why people make the argument that having LGBT relationships represented in the public sphere means they have to explain that stuff to their kids like that's so difficult. Did nobody else grow up as part of a family?!
I didn't have any openly gay people in my family when I was growing up, but there were a whole bunch of different people and different relationship types that I was expected to know and understand from a very young age. I just assumed the same was true for most other people.
Think back to your own young childhood and I'm guessing you remember the same kinds of I things I do. Maybe Mommy and Daddy are divorced. Maybe Auntie Sally isn't married yet but she wants to get married some day and right now she's dating a guy called Jack and he seems nice. Maybe Uncle Jerry used to be married but he isn't anymore because Aunt Margot died a long time ago. He doesn't date and he doesn't want to get married again. Grandma used to be married to Grandfather but he died before you were born and Grandma got married again. It goes on and on and on...
There are so many different configurations for relationships that children know and understand from a very young age. What exactly is so weird about expecting a child to understand a same sex relationship when they already understand that relationships come in all sorts of different shapes and sizes?
Have you explained why a man and a woman are doing what they are doing?
As two of the same sex are often together in nature, nature did intend that.
@TheGoose Re. growing up with different families. Two colleagues of my parents' fell in love and divorced their spouses to marry each other. Later, the two "abandoned" spouses fell in love with each other and married too. They all lived on the same property, in two separate houses, and the six kids had beds in both houses. We often went there and played when I was a kid; it was fun because there were so many kids to play with there.
"er it’s forcing me to explain to my kids why two men or two women are doing what they are doing.”

Confused?
