NEWS FLASH....
Wrong. You fail.
Then why do you fundies always call yourself an oppressed minority? Being christian, unlike being gay, certainly is a choice, and a bad one at that.
I don't think this homophobe knows the meaning of the word 'minority'.
If he does, he's saying that homosexuals are either a majority, or exactly 50 per cent of [American?] society. And then he's in deep doo-doo.

"NEWSFLASH... Homosexuals are not a minority!"
Really? That's not what the demographics show.
"Homosexuality is a CHOICE, not an inherent human trait. Stop comparing homosexuals to black, asians or mexicans."
Which--even if it were true which it's not--would negate the status of minority how?
While I'd agree (mostly) that these are very different issues that should generally not be specificially compared...
... IT IS NOT A FUCKING CHOICE! Do you think I would have CHOSEN to be surrounded by bigots like you?
"Homosexuality is a CHOICE, not an inherent human trait."
Care to back that up with actual evidence? Scientists have already determined that it IS in fact a genetic trait (though they haven't actually pinpointed a "gay gene").
[NEWSFLASH... Homosexuals are not a minority!]
Citation, please?
[Homosexuality is a CHOICE, not an inherent human trait.]
So, when did you CHOOSE to be hetero?
I'm glad you cleared that up, narolsonsd. I'm convinced.
By the by, when did you choose to be either a man or a woman? Left-handed or right-handed? Tall? Short?
I'm glad you had choices. You are unique.
"Homosexuality is a CHOICE, not an inherent human trait. Stop comparing homosexuals to black, asians or mexicans."
Then how about I compare it to being left handed, having curly hair, freckles, brown eye color, and a bunch of other human traits. All of which cross racial lines.
Pick one of those traits, replace it with homosexual in these laws and statements. Seems pretty freaking ridiculous now, doesn't it.
NEWSFLASH...
Putting "NEWSFLASH..." in front of your nonsense is Caps Lock of Truth v. 1.1.
Homosexuals are not a minority!
In the neighborhoods around 14th and P streets, we're not, but I guess that's not quite what you mean.
Homosexuality is a CHOICE, not an inherent human trait.
Can you identify which specific gene made you stupid? No? Then I can only assume that you made the lifestyle choice to be stupid.
Choice or not, If you are not a majority then you are by definintion, a minority. The comparison still stands regardless of you opinion on the matter, reality is not subject to your petty bigotry.
OK, enough with the gay bashing. For the record, I'm perfectly OK with gay folks. I dont know who put that stuff about gays in the bible, probably the same asshole who put in the thing about shellfish being an abomination. Do you have any idea how long it took me to make lobsters so delicious?? Jesus!
So, to sum it up, just try to be nice to each other, dont fuck up your nieghbor's pursuit of a good time and you'll do just fine.
Take care and thanks for reading!!
Yours,
God
P.S. Due to overwhelming prayer request, I will be giving Bill O'Rielly a huge boil on his ass at 3:00 this afternoon. Merry Christmas all!!
NEWSFLASH... you need a brick to the head.
Honestly, why would gay people chose to be (what seems to be) the most hated group of people in the US? (or at least one of the most hated)
"Homosexuals are not a minority!"
Um...
Look, I don't think you know what that word even means.
"Homosexuality is a CHOICE, not an inherent human trait."
in much the same way being left-handed is. I'm sure if I was beaten for it as a child, I could have chosen to be right-handed, but why bother changing?
"Stop comparing homosexuals to black, asians or mexicans."
I wasn't. Mathematically, however, they are a minority.
"Homosexuality is a CHOICE, not an inherent human trait."
So you activley and consciously deciding on being straight? Guess what, you're a closet homoesexual/bisexual!
Uh.. those would be ethnic minorities. Minority doesn't equate to ethincity, it means you belong to a group which is not part of the majority, i.e. Homosexual's are a minority compared to Heterosexuals.
Did your brain melt?
The only choice involved in homosexuality is whether or not to express one's attraction for the same sex.
Otherwise, you wouldn't have homosexuals at all, because they would all choose to be straight rather than be treated like second-class citizens by idiot fundies.
Also, they are a minority by definition, because homosexuals make up less than 50% of our nation's population. Heterosexuals are currently the majority; homosexuals are the minority. Narolsonsd fails at math.
Stop comparing homosexuals to black, asians or mexicans.
We will once you stop using the same arguments against same-sex marriage as you used for interracial marriage 50 years ago.
Homosexuality is only expressed by about 10% of the human population. It is a minority, you drip.
Medical and psychological experts say that homosexuality is not a choice, so fuck you on that account.
Bigotry is bigotry, whether it's about race, sexual preference, religion (or lack thereof), or taste in beer.
Let's look at who you have to back up your "choice" assertions and who we have:
It's a choice=stupid bigots & fundies
It's a human trait=The whole medical, psychological & scientific fields
Means you FAIL...thanks for playing...now DIAF.
Sticking your fingers in your ears and going "nahnahnah" does not make finding on the inherent predisposition to homosexuality any less real. Nor does lack of genetic predisposition mean that something is a choice. The nature/nurture debate is not, actually, the same as the determinism/free will debate.
Neither does choice or determinism influence whether a group is a minority group or not.
NEWSFLASH: If one identical twin is homosexual, then the other has a 55% chance of being homosexual, as opposed to a 20% rate in fraternal twins. This indicates that sexual orientation is determined, in large part, by genes and conditions in the womb, none of which are controlled by the person who is homosexual.
In short: FAIL
Lets grant your claim for the sake of examining your argument. By analogy, the fact that vegetarianism is a choice would equally justify denying vegetarians the right to marry.
Since everybody would consider that to be blithering nonsense as an argument, no matter how they feel about vegetarianism in general, your argument is refuted by reductio ad absurdam , bitch.
I believe that Homosexuality is only a choice for a bisexual, well....okay not really, but at least it has a small amount of logic (considering that bisexuals are, by definition, bit gay and straight, they are kinda just being half of themselves)
Okay I totally confused myself....
This logic baffles me.
Why do fundies (or ANYone, for that matter) think that people would CHOOSE to be gay? Why do they think they would WILLINGLY submit to the stereotypes, discrimination, prejudice, and hatred towards gays?
That alone is evidence enough that homosexuality is not a choice.
Let me see. Unless you can prove that homosexuals don't make less than 10% of the population, they're a minority, you know(by the wya, blacks are not a minority in Africa, nor are Asians in Asia, in case you're wondering)
"Homosexuality is a CHOICE, not an inherent human trait"
In that case, being religious is also a CHOICE, not an inherent human trait. We're all born Atheist after all.
If you want to force gays to become straight, fine. But at the same time, all you fundies must become Atheists.
Deal?
NEWS FLASH!
You're talking nonsense.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
