This esteemed military member has homosexuality all figured out
I believe for a few reasons that gays in the military are just a bad idea. First off its my understanding that many of the men and women who serve in the armed forces practice some form of christianity. as do i which i guess could say makes me biased. the point is even if people are born gay, which i dont believe, that still doesnt make it right. god made them that way to try them and see just how much they love him. are they willing to combat those urges in order to follow his will. its not different then the fact that your not supposed to have sex before marriage. sure you want to but do u love and trust enough in the lord to deny that and not do it.

There you have it, folks...

On a similar note, I welcome Shalikashvilli's comments and say that it's about damned time homosexuals be allowed to serve along side non-homosexuals with open pride.

Blasphemy. Seriously.

22. No matter how HUGE the gap of ignorance, it can be spanned by 'faith' in perversions of religion.
It's a handy hide-out for the bigots.

11. Well, there's no opportunity to use the sarcasm thing in the subject line
Thus, your use of the term "esteemed military" was taken at face value.

Thin skinned, a bit, eh?

7. Me, I think it's anthropologically interesting to see how humans are devolving.
Right before our very eyes.

13. I do agree. Incivil, mean, fearful of others, and poor spellers, to boot!
We have to wonder if there's any hope for humanity at all....

21. Been going on for quite some time now.

Read the letters that our founding fathers wrote to each other or their local newspapers. Now compare that to what we have today from our leaders and pundits. With a few exceptions (like KO and sometimes Big Dog) we are the end results of a society that no longer values education. We are the most entertained generation that has ever been alive, but I think we are also one the least informed. And we seem not to care.

8. Well, since the military has gone all Christian . . .
. . . I suppose the brothels are all closing up shop, too? And the liquor stores?

Oh wait, it's just those OTHER guys who have to change their behavior because "God doesn't like it". I get it.

Asshole.

9. And some more enlightment from the link...
IF YOU SAY SOMETHING ABOUT GAYS, YOU'RE CALLED A HOMOPHOBIC; IF YOU SAY SOMETHING ABOUT THE MUSLIMS YOU'RE A ISLAMOPHOBIC, THE SAME GOES FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS. WHEN ARE WE GOING TO STOP BEING SUCH A F$*&ING ULTRA SENSITIVE SOCIETY. PEOPLE NEED TO GET OVER THEIR STUPID ISSUES. I DON'T CARE TO KNOW WHO IS OR WHO ISN'T GAY, I DON'T WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THEIR BED ROOM AFFAIRS ANY MORE THAN THE WANT TO KNOW MINE.
WHY IS IT THAT ALL OF THIS SO CALLED MINORITY GRPS FEEL THE NEED TO WANT TO TELL THE REST OF US THEIR STUPID FEELINGS LIKE WE CARE. HOMOSEXUALITY IS NOTHING LIKE THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT AND AS LONG AS i DON'T WALK IN LARRY & TOM OR BETH AND CAROL, I COUL CARE LESS ABOUT THEIR SEXUAL ORIENTATION.


STOP WHINING ABOUT YOUR STUPID GAY EMOTIONS AND LEARN TO LIVE LIKE THE REST OF US



I don't kow who these particular people are, but this, ladies and gentlement, are representatives of the 59 million Americans who could be so dumb.

19. I'd say their main issue is their stupidity.
It never ceases to amaze me how absolutely stupid some people are. And not only are they stupid, they are just pure sick.

10. God challenges us to spell correctly, use proper grammar and exercise our brains.
Looks like our military friend is 0-for-3.

Why Do All These Homosexuals Keep Sucking My Cock?
July 6, 2005 | Issue 41•27


Look, I'm not a hateful person or anything—I believe we should all live and let live. But lately, I've been having a real problem with these homosexuals. You see, just about wherever I go these days, one of them approaches me and starts sucking my cock.

Take last Sunday, for instance, when I casually struck up a conversation with this guy in the health-club locker room. Nothing fruity, just a couple of fellas talking about their workout routines while enjoying a nice hot shower. The guy looked like a real man's man, too—big biceps, meaty thighs, thick neck. He didn't seem the least bit gay. At least not until he started sucking my cock, that is.

18. Yeah tell that to the military people looking for translators
The irony of a trained killer trying to teach me about morals, the bible and god, has not escaped me.

23. at least he's honest
wrong, but honest. He admits the reason he doesn't want gays in the military is because he doesn't like them. best reason I have heard yet.
