"Homosexual behavior is an abomination to God," he says in the clip. "When God sees it, it causes him to recoil."
He went on to note, "When we think about the actual act of homosexuality, we have exactly the same reaction. Most people think about that, they don't want to think about that, they don't want to visualize it because it is disgusting."

I don't know, Fischer. Ask a random average 16- to 20-year old girl today about it. There will be a reasonable chance that she's going to say she's not disgusted by yaoi and might even actually like it.
Please don't project your personal tastes onto God.
"When we think about the actual act of homosexuality, we have exactly the same reaction."
Isn't it amazing that god has the same reaction you do. It's almost like you're projecting your bigotry onto your imaginary god.
How exactly do you know it "causes him to recoil"? Can you read minds? Can you read god's mind? Are you claiming to know the mind of god?
What about these? Do these "cause him to recoil", too?

Random atheist: "Exactly what form(s) of gay sex is it that 'causes God to recoil'? Tribbing? Frotting? Oral sex?"
Bryan Fischer (condescending tone of voice): "The ACT. OF. HOMOSEXUALITY!!! Men buttfucking men!"
Random atheist: ("Dafuq?" stunned silence)
"Homosexual behavior is an abomination to God,"
So is eating shrimp, octopus and lobster. Yet fundies don't seem to be demanding restaurants and grocery stores stop selling them.
So in other words, you're admitting that all along your opposition to a secular governmental recognition of the equal status of relationships between consenting adults wasn't outrage at your sacred religious doctrine being violated, but it was only about you personally finding man-man sex "icky"?
You're right in one thing. Straight people like me don't do it. Ted Haggard, Bob Allen and the such, not only give suspiciously graphic descriptions, are mono temática los obssesed with that but also have been caught indulging un that. Why don't you demand responsability to them?
And this is why they continually describe gay sex in graphic detail, in hopes that everyone else will be as repulsed as they are. Of course, they often go overboard with obsessing over the mechanics of gay sex, possibly revealing their true inner nature.
But the thought of God creating gay sex and then being repulsed by it is hilarious.
Of course I don't like to think about two guys in a room. I'm straight. In the same way also, those homosexual males probably don't want to think too hard about me with a woman. For that matter, I think many straight individuals wouldn't be comfortable if I described the act of vaginal sex out loud.
there is nothing that men do with men, or women with women, that a man and a woman can't do together (and do!)
BryBry is rather obsessed with anal sex, methinks
I think it's fine.
Also I think if any being was as powerful and ethereal as god, he wouldn't care one WIT what what some apes do for fun. I mean, he might care about small steps towards overall goodness in the world, but obsessing over the bedroom seems a bit beyond him.
God must be tired from recoiling all the time, then, considering how prominent homosexuality is in His creations. If He really has a problem with it, maybe He should stop making gay people and gay animals.
I've got a solution for homophobes who get sick of thinking about gay sex: stop thinking about gay sex. Seriously. Gay sex doesn't bother me but I don't obsess over it day and night. Either that or come out of the closet already and embrace your sexuality.
Or are you talking about all the other disgusting things gays do, like redecorating their living room, going to wine tastings, or enjoying the theater?
I don't want to think about the actual act of heterosexuality by friends and relatives either.
Why think about it?
Heterosexual behavior and homosexual behavior are VERY similar. It's a lot of sweating and grunting and rubbing and things (perhaps) going into one, two or three possible holes, and then, hopefully, a Grand Finale and a bit of sleep.
Where's the big difference? Oh, men only have two holes? Yeah, very disgusting with that missing hole...
"When God sees it, it causes him to recoil."
"When God sees it"?? You mean when he's looking and paying attention? As opposed to all those times when he's busy with something else and doesn't notice?
The all-seeing, all-knowing, all-powerful God?
And "recoiling" is so 1930's Hollywood movies. Does Fischer really believe that God gasps, is taken aback, shakes his head, and says "Judy, Judy, Judy"?
I don't spend much time thinking about male homosexual intercourse in the first place, but when I do, I don't really react one way or the other. Certainly I don't "recoil" like you do. So stop assuming everyone else thinks the same way you do. In fact, that last sentence could apply pretty well to a whole goddamn ton of posts on this site.
I notice you fail to mention lesbians in any capacity. Probably because the straight men in your audience would suddenly disagree about how "disgusting" it supposedly is.
they don't want to visualize it because it is disgusting
Well, sure - I have no idea why a woman would want to climb into bed with a naked man and stick his johnson in her mouth, and I don't want to visualize what's going through her head, either. What's your point?
K
Brian Fischer naked,
Your Mom naked,
Whoopie Goldberg naked,
Nancy Reagan naked,,,
Anyone miss the point here?
I mean, besides Brian.
NO ONE TOLD YOU TO THINK ABOUT IT,
WORSE, you suggested they do.
I'll admit, Homosexual sex creeps me out, so's a fair bit of heterosexual sex. But it's just so easy not to think about it. Obsessively imagining shit that grouses you out it just one of those signs of madness.
Most people, NORMAL people mind you and not YOU, actually DON'T visualize it or try to visualize it because they understand that a person's sexual and partner preference is their OWN DAMN BUSINESS.
If you are sitting here thinking hard about two gay males kissing or making love then you are to blame if you become disgusted and recoil.
If you don't like it so damn much then STOP THINKING about it so much and fixating yourself on it making it your business. Because it simply ISN'T any of your business to decide who can be together and love each other.
I'm pretty sure your "God recoils when thinking about it" only because YOU recoil when thinking about it. Stop projecting your own feelings and thoughts about something claiming it to be immediately attributed to the feelings and belief of your "GAWD".
Confused?
