Gay Penguin Book stirs up parents

[vibeke_T]

i guess we better get rid of any books with two black parents, or muslim parents, or any other kind of parent different from you.

there are different types of families in the world, and if you kid chooses not follow in your stupidity than good for him. you have no right to force your son to be prejudice. Homosexual parental characters are no more inappropiate or appropiate than heterosexual parental characters.

ok...HOW DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? PLEASE TELL ME.

i'm black first of all...and many other things. and ethnicity is NOT LIKE SEXUALITY. and PLUS these penguins are in captivity --- the stress of their environ. can be mucking things up. but be damned sure that TWO MEN OR TWO WOMEN do not make anything. men and women were designed to procreate together and rear TOGETHER. anything else is boo sheet.
genetic heritage is not a choice, but actions and decisions are. Therefore, two black parents are not the same as two male parents...thank you very much.

LOL, the bible is chock-full of incest, murder and other awesome stuff.
so are most religious books by the way.
and when you think about it, looking hard enought you can find something wrong or affensive with anything if you have enough free time and little to no idea of the true things you should be worriying about.

Ok, cuz its telling the story of REAL people...it never condones rape or incest. okay. thanks. shut your face.

well then you must be of the mind that being gay is a decision.
you're right. little boys who are attracted to other little boys in elementary school just LOVE getting the crap getting beat out of them because of their femininity.

oh, and the bible doesn't condone rape or incest. it just condones female subservience and massive genocide by the almighty's whim.

Then the Lord rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from the Lord out of the heavens" Genesis 19:24. "Turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly" II Peter 2:6

the lord. what a forgiving almighty spirit.

It's the same in that both are minorities--gays even more, really. I mean, black people still get it's fair share of racism, sure, but at least they have their rights backed by the Consititution now.

Listen...the color of one's skin is NOT the same as one's perceived (self or otherwise) sexuality. The color of one's skin has NOTHING to do with how they behave. Sexuality has everything to do with behavior. Black people were enslaved, grossly mistreated and ultimately culturally corrupted in this country solely because of the color of their skin, homosexual people represent like 10% of the population and can easily hide their actions that they choose to participate in. Many people can choose to act on how they *feel* -- but does that mean its rational? does that mean its natural or genetic? no. not in the least. homosexuality is a cultural manifestation, one's skin color is nothing more than than a color that has NOTHING TO DO with the way a person acts. To assume otherwise is to be ignorantly prejudiced.

It's like people don't seem to get that. "I'm gay, I suffered just as much as the blacks did." Now I reiterate I support the gay movement to the fullest, but don't give me that.

are you ****ing stupid? you know how many people have had their heads cut off, burned to death, and stoned to death for the crime of being gay? How many lived a life of life of lonliness which is probably worse than anything else in life?

you are also being prejudiced against gays. All of the ghins you mentioned that happened to blacks were horrible crimes. And much of it still happens in Africa. you know what happens today in the middle east to gays?

death penalty.

you know what happens in most of the world?

lonliness

prejudice against blacks and prejudice against gays or any group is equally stupid and wrong. the reason prejudice against blacks gets brought up in the gay rights argument is because we study history for a reason. To learn from it, and not make the same mistakes over again.

my sister is a lesbian. can you imagine the felling of lonliness listening to much of her religous family talking about gays the way they did? Before we found out she was gay something really bad almost happened and none of us knew why.

not to mention that a large percentage of the victims of hate crimes are gays. but you gay haters would just assume let em suffer, wouldn't you?

in today's america in most states it's perfectly legal to fire somebody from their job for being gay and even landlord's are allowed to discriminate.

was that meant to be a serious agrument!?
first of all, if you go back and read what i wrote, you'll see that nothing in my argument had anything to do with race, only with the fact that homosexuality is not a choice.
and if you don't believe that, and you want to say that it is a "cultural manifestation", then i reccomend that you look at not only ancient human culture, where it was prevelent, but also the animal kingdom, where homosexuality IS found throughout.

if you want to go on and on about how black people were oppressed, i dont argue, but that has nothing to do with a book about two gay penguins. geez.
