Reply #21: I'm convinced there isn't much you can do with people like that...

I mean, there is no logic behind their homophobic views. So you can't reason with them and have a real discussion about it, because it almost always ends up with them saying "It's wrong and God doesn't approve"... Even if they are no religious and they hold those beliefs, it comes down to it's not natural and shouldn't be allowed. You'd think you'd be able to at least get those people to see the flaw in their thinking, but even they seem to hold their beliefs no matter what. Maybe they are scared it will make them gay..

I'm not gay, but I've recently realized more than I have in past, that gays are treated like complete shit by so many people. It annoys me to no end, because no one can give a good explanation as to why they feel that way. Also, unlike being a racist, there is still a sense of acceptability to being homophobic.
