I don’t get why people in that group always look for outside validation from EVERYONE! If you want to identify as that then do it! Why does it matter what others support or don’t support? I doubt people are mad i think it’s just the constant chatter around it that makes people annoyed. Do you but don’t expect support all the time. No normal person is looking for external validation for a simple thing like identity.
I’m not in agreement with all that. The idea of trans people or just lgbt people in general, but I’ll also never hate. They can live their lives do whatever. I got friends that are a part of that community and they chill asf. I don’t discriminate even tho I ain’t a part of their group. We’re supposed to bring people together🤝
Well, Im just straight. Thats my choice and all that. Part of it is a “religious” thing even tho im not overly religious. That’s why I don’t align myself wit it and just due to the fact im straight. But thats still why I also can be chill and respect anyone who does align themselves wit that. We all have our choices and freedom to do what we want. Too many people can’t coexist
I have nothing against it lol. My whole point was that I’m straight which is my reason. Idc what others decide to do. Yes religion doesn’t align with it, but it’s not a means for us to use in order to condemn people. I just have my preference of being straight. No shade towards anyone
Beyond popular belief, the Bible and science can and do coexist. But instead of giving a broad “facts”, explain to me what you mean so I can better understand. Like I said in my initial post tho, Im not overly religious. So it’s not my basis here for my belief. Which the belief I mentioned is just the fact I’m straight and don’t align myself with that community. Never was doggin anyone
Align yourself with it? Wtf… lgbt and being trans isn’t like a religion or cult or belief system. It’s just like who you are. Also how can you say you’re “not in agreement” with anything lgbt then also say you don’t discriminate? That’s highly contradictory. How can you not be in agreement with who someone just is. Like what I tell you I’m bisexual or something and you’ll be like “no you aren’t”???
It’s not that at all. The “being in alignment with it” purely means that I’m just not a part of yalls community. I guess I didn’t quite use the best terminology. But I never have discriminated against anyone in your community. Literally was out at a bar with some friends who are a part of the community. I’m just not a part of it due to the fact I’m straight. I literally have zero problem with the community and respect the views held by it
Don’t know how I’m acting like a child when I’m sitting here trying to explain I have no problems with the community and I respect you guys when I’m just here getting yelled at lol. Personally seems like you’re being the child for being so rash and quick to anger. I never once said you were wrong lol
You just worded that in like the worst way possible. Like it seems like you’re just saying you happen to be straight and you don’t care what people do. Idk why you’re grouping religion with that. I’m somewhat religious, many people in my religion think my religion say gay = bad when it never does. They are just homophobic. That is kind of what you are sounding like.
Yes I’m not a part of the community but I’m chill wit them. I have gay/lesbian/trans friends and I respect them and value them. But I am not them. Idc who people decide to love. That’s up to them. And with the religion thing, it’s the most common issue regarding it. However, in my argument to people who say it’s a sin… everybody sins and in the Bible it says that all sin is weighed the same. So if they want to use the “being gay is a sin” card, then they must be sinless themselves to judge.
I don’t really like bringing religion into that kinda thing. I’m not overly religious and I believe in religion for the idea that it’s supposed to be filled with love, peace, and joy. I don’t do the whole judgement thing because it just dehumanizes people when we, biblically, are not even allowed to cast judgement. No matter if it’s a sin or not, too many Christians judge which turns people away imo
But, by labeling it as a sin, it’s going to make those that are gay or transgender question their identity and feel guilty just because of the way they are. No matter how much you want to pretend it doesn’t exist or is immoral, it exists, and even lines of reasoning like this is what allows transphobia and homophobia to remain rampant in American culture.
Fr, raised catholic, and most of it is them just religion as an excuse to be homophobic/transphobic. Tho old interpretations did teach that way, there have been new and better translations of the Bible and passages can be interpreted differently ways. But what I believe is that the main theme, of at least Catholicism, is love and respect everyone and everything.
I appreciate it lol. Just try to stay chill fr lol. But yeah the whole point of Christianity is to be like Christ and that dude made disciples of people who were deep in sin. God used sinful people to do his work. People today care too much about sin and put themselves on a pedestal to feel righteous. It’s why I don’t go to church anymore lol. People don’t love and care enough about others
It’s only a sin because the Bible was mistranslated multiple times. The original line everyone gets in a hissy about “a man shall not lay with another man” was really for pedophilia. “A man shall not lay with a child” is the actual translation. But the priests were pedos and didn’t like that
Are you stupid? People in that group are asking for basic human respect from everyone, like being called the right name and pronouns. But noooo people go out of their way to NOT do that. And I’m talking about people going on post where they just mention they’re trans and people start commenting rude/nasty things. And yea people are mad, but I guess a better word is hate
No one is responsible to appease your traumas. What happened isn’t your responsibility but healing from it is. Those churches caused generational pain and systemic issues to people. So that isn’t comparable to someone complaining on yik yak in the year 2025 when this is the most able time for someone to let go/unravel that trauma.
