Give it up man, you lost.   Face it.
Lost what? I had one post deleted that was not homophobic even by definition. I had that post unjustly deleted, which I am in the process of appealing, but about a hundred posts of the indecent were deleted today. Who lost? Worse case would be I don't discuss homosexuality, but still decency wins out with the new heavier enforcement of the rules. So who lost?

Look at yourself.   You're 'appealing' a post on a public forum.......

55   -   Your score rates you as "homophobic."   


That is incorrect, because I DO NOT "fear" homosexuals, I just don't think that is the way people should behave...Much the same as I don't think people should have sex with children, or animals...Those are sexual deviations...I don't have a problem with a person who is gay, only the act and the promotion of such a lifestyle as being "normal".



Thank you, Ozman....I could not have put that any better!  :)


These are my results:
23 - Your score rates you as "high-grade non-homophobic."

Here, take this quiz and post your results:

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/assault/etc/quiz.html
16   -   Your score rates you as "high-grade non-homophobic."

In his 1996 study of 64 white, male college students, Dr. Henry Adams classed 29 participants as "non-homophobic." Their mean score was 30.48, however, placing most of the men outside of this sub-group. Dr. Adams reported that he had difficulty finding heterosexual men whose scores ranked them as high-grade non-homophobic


And I do likes the ladies. ;)

If I was a woman, I'd be gay. LOL

To me, the definition of homophobia is simply one word...............ignorance.

Actually, I'm not unhappy, lol... I have peace with God and that's what matters. And I've contacted quite a few people at the MEN with an appeal. We'll see how that goes. As I said, I can live with not being allowed to say, "Homosexuality is sin." Though, I should have the right to say that in a civil manner, just as people can say religion is wrong and a delusion. And if my appeal is not granted then we're all going to be walking a tight rope here, I assure you, as I'll raise a case against every post that is not deleted, which should be according to the same logic that deleted mine. I can be a true thorn in the flesh when I see an injustice.

Even this test put together by professionals says I'm not homophobic, but I'm sure Bloo will say the test is now "Wrong" some how.
