It Gets Better: Children's Choir and Gay Men's Choir Sing

I teared up before I even watched it. Perfect. Just perfect. The world is getting better.

Inappropriate that gay people and children sing together? This is a sin? This is disgraceful?

As a religious man, who believes that God is all powerful, you think [He] made a mistake, making gay people? You think [He] doesn't love them as much as you? You think God loves you more?

You think that the love shown on that stage between diverse people is disgraceful?

I think perhaps the disgrace lies elsewhere.

Disgraceful and inappropriate. To think that this is ok. Not!

Your God-inspired hate is a disgrace to the human race. I see a stage shared by children and openly gay men singing a song of love for outsiders and the oppressed, the black sheep of our society. You see this expression of love as disgraceful.

It's been a while since I stepped inside a church or read the Bible, but last I heard Jesus loves EVERYONE. He even asked his dad to forgive the sons of bitches who tortured and murdered him. Now you'd think if he could do that, then the LEAST you could do is just fucking tolerate gays without condemnation. But it's easier to talk about God's love than to practice it, isn't it?

Religion is slowly, inexorably dying, and it ain't just science that's killing it. Practitioners like you are driving just as many nails into its coffin as the guys in lab coats. And I guess if religion dies then it must be God's will, right?>> ^bobknight33:

According to 53% of American's this is a great performance.

However 47% of American's are convinced they will burn in Hell for their gay SIN!

On the same note that 47% of America are going to be claiming they are compassionate people who love everyone.

Be a human, believe in your own experiences. Don't let others tell you what the truth is.

Only in the last 4 decades the country has been swayed by gay groups and media that this sort of behavior is acceptable and it is not.

There is not one evolution or biblical reason for being gay. GOD does not hate gay people no more than he hates those who steal, divorce or murder. He allows each of us to have a free will to choose him or not.

And what you want to say that some were born gay? What about those who say they were born to be x,y or z.

What if the person comes from a family line of alcoholics? Should that force society to condone the person becoming an alcoholic? Do we let their actions a pass in society and just say he was born with the “gean”

The serial killer, Jeffrey Dahmer from an early age had a fascination to kill things. So do we say he was “born” that way? Even so that does not make it right. Should we stand up to all serial killers and say you were born that way and that’s ok?

What about an individual that is born one sex and has the “gean” to be the opposite?

Just because being gay does not have a negative societal impact as those exampled above ( granted those are extreme examples to illustrate the point) how does that translate as being an acceptable behavior?


Children only learn what is right and wrong from the society that surrounds them and to indicate to them that this behavior is ok is morally failing these children.

It is a moral failure to tell a child that they must deny who they are.

You are historical toast, my friend, and the faster the better.

I was in the middle of writing a long angry reply to this, but then I thought, fuck it, you're not worth it. If you're old enough to make comments about the last 4 decades of your country, and intolerant enough to have the opinions of homosexuality that you appear to have, then I shouldn't even give you the time of fucking day.

Your argument regarding alcohol does not hold any weight for me. Alcoholism is an addictive disorder that harms the victim and the victim's friends and relatives. It is medically defined as a treatable disease. Homosexuality is not a disorder. Homosexual people, and their families and friends, are not harmed by their sexuality but only suffer the mental and sometimes physical abuse of their peers. Your serial killer argument is also very weak since it is also about a behavior that is extremely harmful to other people.

I have just noticed that you even acknowledge this in your post, "just because being gay does not have a negative societal impact as those exampled above ... how does that translate as being an acceptable behavior?" The answer lies within your own question. It is not harmful, to anyone, therefore it is acceptable. Everyone should have the right to love and be loved and if this happens to be with someone of the same gender there's nothing wrong with that! It seems to me that you are categorizing alcoholism, murder, and homosexuality into one pile and that pile is the "SIN" pile. Those three things are only the same from a conservative religious stand point. Since you seem to be a conservative religious person this is probably why you are having trouble viewing homosexuality as something that is not evil.

Anyways, I will close with this video:

Wow, who'da thought there were such pathetic haters on such a quality site as videosift? Take your bigoted hatred and ignorance and shuvvoff.

A sufficient difference between Dahmer and gay people is that Dahmer forcibly murdered people, gay people do not force others to be gay with them.

Regarding alcoholism, forcing someone to not drink simply does not work. They themselves have to want to stop drinking or such endeavours are doomed. It's a false comparison anyway, alcoholism prevents a person from having a functional life whereas homosexuality does not.

To your point at the end I ask you: what are morals? In a society where religion is free then morals surely can't be defined by the holy text of any one religion. Specifically with respect to the present case homosexuality is accepted in a lot of eastern religions and sometimes even encouraged.>> ^bobknight33:
