Honestly...given you guys have essentially had your way for all of recorded history, I do sort of feel bad that you're in the last generation of having things your way and under your watch it'll fade away.
Things are definitely going down the shitter because of cultural rot these days. But that has little to do with gay people, or how they are portrayed on television.

That commercial is ridiculously inappropriate. FWIW I'd still think the same if you changed the second lesbian to a man.
It's fricking yogurt, not a place to air whatever political agenda you have or show bedroom behaviors on family channels.

I guess I shouldn't allow my 2 year old at any family functions since my uncle and his partner will always be there?

would this commercial ever been shown in the 50s?

I don't like those and I'm straight.
Sex is used to sell everything. Get over it.
Those are bad..
So we agree sexually provocative commercials are not good.
Yet, the introduction another kind of sin makes it ok? No
but I see the point and is well taken.

Do you allow your two year old to go into their bedroom and watch one of them eating in bed, caressing his partner, then taking the sheet away?

You can say that all day... It doesn't change truth of what is or isn't appropriate for a certain audience.
It's not "truth." It's your opinion. The only reason you claim it has something to do with truth is because YOU believe it, not because it can be proven in any way. In your desire to have others line up and live life as you see as right, you're no different than a run of the mill Muslim who think his "truth" ought to be adhered to and that all others are sinners. Sure...you're not as violent, but that's not the case for the entirety of your faith's history. When your faith could be, it was barbaric in trying to enforce its will onto no believers.
In terms of KNOWING you're right and all others are dead wrong, you couldn't be more alike. The funny thing is that neither of you can see how funny that is...

no big deal

tickling his foot...no big deal

probably not because they are 2 old wrinkly dudes and there is no camera to pan away...Posted on 6/17/15 at 11:16 am to Salmon

Oh ok, so you have family members who are gay and have a partner
I understand your point of view better now. What you do with your family is up to you. You control it
The line of conflict is found in the difference between "Acceptance" and Approval of this lifestyle...because after all, who are we to NOT accept gays?
We have no choice over another person's life or choices, it's not our lives we are talking about...so we must move past "acceptance"...then we meet the line of "Approval"
Approval of the gay lifestyle is where the rubber meets the road and where the passion comes from in these debates
Individually we do control that line that is ultimately provided to us from God whether consciously or unconsciously recognized.
We have a moral code, we all know the line exists. It doesn't move though we may try
As a people or society we are trying to convince ourselves we are more compassionate by "approving"...? Hmmm
Christians can't cross that line if we're being obedient to what we consider the truth. Accept yes, approve no
Love, pray and seek to understand...that's all we can do
Let God be God

At some point it will benefit you to realize this word only has weight with those that hold your beliefs. To the rest of it, that's simply a way to get us to tune you out of the rational discussion.
You know how you don't care about the various sins your typical Muslim would claim you take part in daily? I don't care about either of your sin claims equally.

I don't have a problem talking to my kids about it.
I just tell them the truth, that gay is not normal.

so your thought process carries a higher value and thus wins this argument of right and wrong because you don't care and I do?

When a 6 year old senses an issue with the commercial, and asks their mother "Why is that woman in bed with another woman?" why don't you have similar questions as an adult who should understand morals and right from wrong?
WHY WON"T SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDRENNN????????????????
Seriously though, Loony Toons made it a point to throw eachother off ledges and hit eachother with anvils ect ect, yet I don't see full grown adults who grew up watching that chuck people they don't like into walls with huge slingshots.
Hell, Bugs Bunny actually crossdressed to kiss Elmer Fudd, multiple times.

Believe it or not, I challenge my beliefs and thoughts and opinions .
I do try to understand apposing views and consider "am I wrong?"
"Why do I think I am right?" "Why do I not comprehend this person's opinion or passion?"
"Where do I go for wisdom?"
For me, it's scripture, family of believers and prayer
Sincerely

I don't consider it piling on. Remember, I said it was less risque' than the other examples. Not only is it not worse than those. It's more acceptable.

If by that tripe you mean I'm able to change my beliefs as new evidence comes in, then yes...I guess that' true. I'm not beholden to dogma or infallible scripture. I find that to be a positive...

You have that backwards based on your last comment. since I do not live my life by some strict moral code which is infallible or unchangeable, my responses can and do change based on the time in which I live and the society in which I am a part. You...as predictable as the sun rise.

It won't aggravate me. It will prove my above point. That despite the fact that you acknowledge that I do not hold the same beliefs as you, you seem to think citing verses from a compilation of books I find hold no weight will somehow win an argument. It's as laughable as a Muslim quoting from the Koran to convince you of his moral authority.
Would you be moved by his actions? Would you believe them to be true simply because a devout believer read them from a book he believed in that you do not?
Of course not. Then why pretend my reaction to your holy book should be any different than your reaction to his? Or is it just special pleading?
