    Eh, so much for Europe more advanced sensibilties. You guys seem as bad as the tight a$$ puritanical american public. What gives anyone the right to pass judgement on anyone else?

    If you have a problem with a person based on the sexual preference, then its not them who has a problem. Its you.

    What about people who are straight but A-holes? What about straight people who abuse children, and kill innocent people? What about straight men that phisically and mentally abuse women? Would you hold these kinds of people in high regard just because they are straight?

    My focus is on whether people share my core beliefs, are good people, and are loving and supportive of their fellow man, not who they choose to sleep with. If more people took that path, this world would be a hell of alot better place. Everyone should have the right to live their life as they choose without judgement from other folks. When you have acheived perfection, then you can judge others.

    Please do not judge "Europe" on tolerance and acceptance of gays and lesbians by one person, esp. comming from America. No offense! I for one, am all for gays and lesbians. I have a friend who is gay and noone gives a ****. I dont go around priding myselfs with being Heterosexual, and this is the only thing where i think that the gays and lesbians should downplay it a bit.

    No, what I am really against is homosexuals bringing up children. I think that is completely wrong at which ever angle you look at it, and even more so ethicaly wrong. That is why I am against the gay community becoming stronger, whether socialy or in numbers.
    I didn't realize Amercians frowned on homosexuals more so than "Europeans" ( i don't like the way americans consider Europe as on big country, as there are huge cultural differences between one country and the other-I guess Florian and I think alike). I am half American so don't please don't call me "european" just because I live in Geneva.

    Sadly Terrence nobody walking this planet can acheive perfection.
    And no I would not support straight people who act in the wrong ways, of course I wouldn't but this is not so much in paralel with what I said.
    Sorry I brought this up but it can't be a bad thing we talked about it.

    Speaking as an employer, I am acquainted with a highly diversified workforce, consisting of straight, gay, white, black, hispanic, asian, educated, obtuse, well-to-do, and the not-so-fortunate. When looking for perspective new teammates, I search for those that are mindful of etiquette, grasp the value of shared responsibility, and have a general concern and consideration of their fellow man. It also doesn't hurt if they have a sense of humor.
    Speaking as a human being, I look for the same characteristics in friends and comrades.I can't imagine having the time or the inclination to give a damn about what someone chooses to do in the privacy of their bedroom...

    Hey G, as long as you don't hurt the goat I'm gonna file that under None of My Damn Business. Actually, let's adopt a "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy on that one...

    We make fine parents by the way. My partner has two children and he is a much better dad than most and a better parent than the mom. Do not worry we do not discuss the intricacies of our relationship with the children and we are not affectionate in front of the children. They both appear to be growing up heterosexual which is fine with me. Life can be tough enough and I would never want children I love to be tormented and abused by ignorant peers like I was because they are gay. Yes gay parents do not try to make their children gay but love them and help them learn to accept themselves for who they are.

    What's ethically wrong is a child being brought up a household where they are unwanted, physically abused, emotionally abused, molested, hurt, mis-treated, ignored. There are lots of straight families out there where these things happen all the time. Being straight does not guarantee good parenting.

    My experiences with gay families is exacty the opposite. Gays and lesbians don't just find themselves pregnant. They have to plan for it. They have to arrange it. They really want it. And because of that, they know what a blessing their child(ren) is and what a privelage it is to be a parent. How on earth can a child being raised in a happy, loving home be unethical????

    What I'm really against are homophobes who would rather see a child stay in the Foster Care system than to be brought up in a loving, household...just because the parents are gay.

    I suppose we can proceed with the picnic, just please try and maintain some platonic subtlety. And don't take JohnMichael's contentions to heart as I'm sure he doesn't know how just demanding sheep can be. I still have that PM you sent me about how no matter where you were on your property the sheep kept backing toward you with an expectant look...oops...sorry about that...
