It takes an intense hatred of gay people (or incredible naivete) to tell complete lies about gay people or insult them to their face (or behind their back). That’s homophobia to a T.

You indicated they were just ‘hanging out’
Either they are giving no indication to anyone of anything, or they are.
Now which is it?

Uhh have you seen people hang out with their partners ever, gay or straight? There’s usually SOME indicator. Either they’re holding hands, one has an arm around the other’s waist, there’s a small kiss on the cheek, something. This is what I mean by “just hanging out.” What do YOU do when you hang out with a significant other? Stand awkwardly in a corner and not speak to them?
Interesting fluidity of vocabulary.
What fits to a T is the opinion…not the fact.
You tire of people complaining of the homosexual population constantly leveling a charge of homophobia, but at the same time acknowledge that it is apparently only an opinion…and one that you utilize when it may not apply at all.

I never said it was an opinion. And it certainly applies when it is said, trust me.

Cherry picked? That was the first definition I went to.
The second? Merriam Webster:
merriam-webster.com/dictionary/homophobia
Without concrete fact, it is opinion.
That is basic logic that most people have mastered by fourth grade.

It is concrete fact that gays are not pedophiles, do not deserve to be insulted whether directly or through calumny/detraction, and that gays do not recruit children.
Control vocabulary and control the debate?
Go ahead. But the definition still references irrational fear.
The word started that way in the 80’s and continues to today.
All a fluid definition does is erode your position.
One cannot know if you really mean what you say.
We went from people actively sinning earlier to people ‘just hanging out’ and back when it suited you.
Then we witness you ascribing hatred and fear to people when the word may not apply.
And we see a stubborn attachment to opinion as equal to fact.
All within 30 minutes.

Oh so having an income is an excuse now? Yeah, that’s Christian justice for ya! Thanks for providing more proof why this faith is an ironic joke.
Morality defeats itself if you’re only substituting one injustice for another. That’s how it becomes one huge joke. Period. Absolutists like you are the ones making excuses for what is essentially a logically self-defeating premise (and not to mention are the reason why everyone comes up with silly hypothetical scenarios).
Not all, but certainly some.
And some studies indicate at a higher rate then the rest of the population.
Odd that yo would call the faith you claim to ascribe to a joke.
God’s law is absolute.
Perhaps you missed that in Catechism?

Yet you’re the one making the case for it. Who’s the real comedian here?
Yeah. You keep chanting that. I’m sure that’ll look good on a resume at your local Christian bookstore.

Actually, no. There are no studies showing that homosexuals are pedophiles at a greater rate than heterosexuals. The only studies done have shown that male children make up a third of the victims, but it has also been proven that abuse of male children does not have any correlation with one’s sexual orientation.
Accusing gays of being pedophiles at a greater rate than the heterosexual population in the face of all scientific evidence to the contrary is homophobic, yes.
Show some scientific evidence and your claim to such may be believed.
The one that claims to be catholic but denigrates the church…?
Perhaps your claim to Catholicism is a false one.Yeah. You keep chanting that. I’m sure that’ll look good on a resume at your local Christian bookstore.

Oh good. Thanks for verifying. Nothing more denigrating that proving how absolutists do nothing but set moral traps. Good job!The one that claims to be catholic but denigrates the church…?
Yeah. Along with 70% of the flock. Are we done with ad homs now because your concession is really overdue.

Dude, quit it. It’s one thing to ad hom a fellow person it’s another to downright call the faith an ironic joke. I have a handful of things I don’t like about this forum, but the attitude that you have is high on that list.
As for the article: Since I’m cooking more at home, I’ve did a few homemade burgers due to the nice weather - so Burger King’s attempt to make me buy this particular item won’t appeal to me. This “pride” burger is a joke and pathetic attempt to push the normalization of (a) homosexuality (b) any same sex sexual activities and the ultimate goal (c) homosexual “marriage.”
Also, what’s pathetic with the “we are all made the same inside” is that the burger, once the wrapper is thrown away, is still a burger - that they’re equating the validity of such a pairing, same sex pairings, with an inanimate object like a grilled pattie and lettuce - yet when forcefully linked to the whole “love is love” it is ignorant (or not) that a male on male bedroom “love” making is not the same as two heterosexuals actually engaging in sex. The same with two females making out with one another and performing oral on each other. The outcome is literally nothing.
But then again, this type of emotional reasoning is the same emotional reasoning to say that abortion is totally fine and that sex is “just sex.” Welcome to The Brave New World (where real bravery is scarce).
When you dress a burger with whatever color paper and whatever agenda behind that “special” burger, it’s still a burger, yet when you dress two people of the same sex as “equals” to a hetero couple any brain that is hones with itself knows that one pairing is not like the other. In other words, you throw all the popular mantras - “we’re all the same inside” to “love is love” on same sex pairing but it won’t change the fact that the reality of it is an walking, breathing oxymoron.
