I donât 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 donât support? I doubt people are mad i think itâs just the constant chatter around it that makes people annoyed. Do you but donât expect support all the time. No normal person is looking for external validation for a simple thing like identity.
Iâm not in agreement with all that. The idea of trans people or just lgbt people in general, but Iâll 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 donât discriminate even tho I ainât a part of their group. Weâre supposed to bring people togetherđ¤
Well, Im just straight. Thats my choice and all that. Part of it is a âreligiousâ thing even tho im not overly religious. Thatâs why I donât 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 canât coexist
I have nothing against it lol. My whole point was that Iâm straight which is my reason. Idc what others decide to do. Yes religion doesnât align with it, but itâs 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 âfactsâ, explain to me what you mean so I can better understand. Like I said in my initial post tho, Im not overly religious. So itâs not my basis here for my belief. Which the belief I mentioned is just the fact Iâm straight and donât align myself with that community. Never was doggin anyone
Align yourself with it? Wtf⌠lgbt and being trans isnât like a religion or cult or belief system. Itâs just like who you are. Also how can you say youâre ânot in agreementâ with anything lgbt then also say you donât discriminate? Thatâs highly contradictory. How can you not be in agreement with who someone just is. Like what I tell you Iâm bisexual or something and youâll be like âno you arenâtâ???
Itâs not that at all. The âbeing in alignment with itâ purely means that Iâm just not a part of yalls community. I guess I didnât 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. Iâm just not a part of it due to the fact Iâm straight. I literally have zero problem with the community and respect the views held by it
Donât know how Iâm acting like a child when Iâm sitting here trying to explain I have no problems with the community and I respect you guys when Iâm just here getting yelled at lol. Personally seems like youâre 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 youâre just saying you happen to be straight and you donât care what people do. Idk why youâre grouping religion with that. Iâm 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 Iâm not a part of the community but Iâm 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. Thatâs up to them. And with the religion thing, itâs the most common issue regarding it. However, in my argument to people who say itâs a sin⌠everybody sins and in the Bible it says that all sin is weighed the same. So if they want to use the âbeing gay is a sinâ card, then they must be sinless themselves to judge.
I donât really like bringing religion into that kinda thing. Iâm not overly religious and I believe in religion for the idea that itâs supposed to be filled with love, peace, and joy. I donât do the whole judgement thing because it just dehumanizes people when we, biblically, are not even allowed to cast judgement. No matter if itâs a sin or not, too many Christians judge which turns people away imo
But, by labeling it as a sin, itâs 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 doesnât 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. Itâs why I donât go to church anymore lol. People donât love and care enough about others
Itâs only a sin because the Bible was mistranslated multiple times. The original line everyone gets in a hissy about âa man shall not lay with another manâ was really for pedophilia. âA man shall not lay with a childâ is the actual translation. But the priests were pedos and didnât 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 Iâm talking about people going on post where they just mention theyâre 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 isnât your responsibility but healing from it is. Those churches caused generational pain and systemic issues to people. So that isnât 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.
