  1. OK, let's just assume you're right for argument's sake and that humans and animals can be born gay.  If this is the case, then I see it as a genetic flaw.  Animals may not be able to overcome such a feat, but humans can.  If we can replace lims with artificial devices, attempt to clone, bypass psychological problems, then I believe we can overcome genetic flaws as well.

     

    Now, don't get me wrong.  I'm not a gay hater.  In fact, I refuse to hate any form of life, no matter how evil it can act, not even Suddam Hussien could I hate.

     

    With that said, since I'm a Christian, let me give a simplified point of view, OK?

     

    It's not about being "held back", but as a Christian, God has rules, commandments, and so forth that he expects us to follow.  He doesn't make these rules to control us, but rather so that we can prosper.  Like not having sex before marriage for example.  By doing so, when you finally "do" have sex with your spouse, and only that person, the rewards are far greater, the bond closer, and so forth.  So, if he doesn't wish for humans to be homosexual, beyond not being able to reproduce, I don't quite understand it, but if God wishes it, then I agree with it.  I never question God.  I may question something that happens, but never God himself.

     

    Anyway, I have 3 reasons for being against homosexuallity:

     

    1. It's not natural.

    2. You can't reproduce.

    3. It's against God's wishes.  (and it's a sin)

     

    So, in conclussion, it is the act of homosexuallity, not the man that I hate.  Infact, one of my best internet friends is gay.  He knows I'm against homosexuallity, yet he is still a best friend.

     

    Anywho, I had to go do something, and then came back while typing this, so I kinda lost my train of thought.

     

    If any of what I've said does not make sense, or if you believe I've not been clear, please post a reply! :tear:

    No offence intended, I'm a devout Christian myself, but I really don't feel this is the place to preach Christianity. A lot of people do not share our beliefs and it's not respectful to push them on anyone. Besides, this debate isn't about weather or not being gay is right or wrong, it's about weather they should be represented. To say they shouldn't is like saying other religions shouldn't be represented because I don't agree with them.


  2. The marriage was about the only thing i liked about the movie that i liked.

     

    I agree that Riker was not ready in the series, but i think Deanna could have been. You suppose we will ever see a married captain?

    Riker is a married captain now. :tear: Of course we didn't get to see the captain part.

     

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who's not big time into Nemesis. I hate that they killed off Data. That makes me mad every time I think of it. :D


  3. I think that Riker couldn't get married until he was a little bit older, perhaps more seasond?

    Yeah, I agree. I'm just saying that if I were Deanna I'd have a hard time trusting him in a romantic relationship again. I am glad they finally got together though. I just would have handled it differently.


  4. Could there be a little jealousy there too since she got to kiss Riker? :lol: Most of the female characters that REALLY annoy me are the ones that had "relationships" with my favourite male characters!!  Yes, I am willing to admit that! :P

    :tear::D :P

    I can honestly say no because I found her annoying as a little kid too. Way before I was even looking at guys that way. But yeah, it's very annoying when they have a guy you want.
