(cont'd) stupid to realize that they have options besides Obama, and now think he is God, because they
 are too stupid to see through his bullshit.

I'm not interested in spelling things out to you
 further, so consider this conversation finished. I've said all I have to say. If you still don't get it after my comments this morning, I can't help you.

Does your ... ( 1 week ago by ISmarterThanYou)
Does your conception of opinions miss that they can change? Are you unaware that people sometimes develop their ideas further? If you really could say "he never supported lgbt equality", it would be major evidence for your point. But that would be false, because he supported them more
 than any other U.S. president. All you can accurately say is that "two years ago he supported lgbt equality a tiny bit less than now". His earlier stance can, and often does, naturally lead to his current stance.
To say that he did ... ( 1 week ago by ISmarterThanYou)
To say that he did not support LGBT equality when he made this video might be true in a context where one assumes that anything less than perfect support of equality in all aspects of life means no support. But if not realizing that in practice civil unions aren't 100% equal to marriage is enough to define a person as not supporting lgbt equality, then your
 criteria are unfit for application to the real world, where sincere supporters of an idea might not fully realize the details of the issues.
As for the NC ... ( 1 week ago by ISmarterThanYou)
As for the NC business, if it had an effect,
 it's more reasonable to think it was indirect - other officials in his administration spoke out about it even earlier, and fuck knows if he would've come out on the issue this soon after it if it wasn't for others in his staff bringing it up. It's possible, of course, but the weight of the evide
nce available about Obama as a whole suggests that, while flawed in many ways, he is the rare politician more inclined to express what he sincerely believes.
And interested or ... ( 1 week ago by ISmarterThanYou)
And interested or not, cut the arrogant self-certain-of-one's-own-rightness crap. You've hopefully noted that aside from my playfully arrogant username, my comments were neither insulting (until this one) nor dripping with snide self-assurance. There are possibly logically impeccable, well informed, wise people in this world that might be right
 in acting so. You are not. (Nor am I saying I am, but then I'm not phrasing my statements with implications of the stupidity of those I'm talking to.)

I really
 don't understand the American politics on this page as I'm British, but can I just ask is Obama looking to give lgbt people the chance to have a 'marriage' such as the sort that is currently available for them here in the UK where they are legally the same as same-sex partnerships or actual marr
iage where it is permitted to be held in a religious building etc?

Obama doesn't mean ... ( 3 days ago by desperado1024)
Obama doesn't mean anything he's saying. He's a proven liar and he's playing politics with the
 homosexuals, the effeminate, the sensual, and other's who so foolishly allow their "lust for sex" to dominate their everyday lives. There is so much more out there to live for than just the satisfaction of your selfish sexual desires. Wake up and start thinking about others instead of your o
wnselves all the time. Give Jesus Christ a chance to fill your lives with with what really matters.

Suicides have increased mainly because people no longer
 see suicide as wrong. By all means, work to reduce bullying (but real bullying, not Christians simply expressing our beliefs). But if u really want to discourage suicides then u need to send a clear message that suicide is the ultimate expression of self-absorbed losers, who r too weak to dea
l with life & don't care who they hurt by taking their own lives! I know many of u r already cursing me out for saying this, but u have been misled.

MAKE IT STOP . I hear everyday "That's so gay" and the word "FAG" used in my school everyday . I discovered I was gay very young . I have always been bullied . For acting like a guy , for dressing a different way , and for being gay . It was such a heavy weight on my shoulders , and it caused me to have horrible scars on my arms . People say I'm faking it for attention . I'm not .
 I know I'm young , but I have seen and felt a lot more than I should have . MAKE IT STOP .

 but I support anyone out there who is. Be who you are never ever let anyone tell you its wrong because its not its your own way of loving your special soulmate. And anyone who doesn't understand to love everyone no matter what guess what Karma is a B***h and God will look down on you not the g
ays because you should love everyone no matter if they are diffrent.

1,211 people have been bullied, have become bullies, and need love and openness to warm their hearts and to show them that intolerance is not the way. "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light
 can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." ~MLK Jr.

fuck you dude, Jesus Christ said to love all. By saying homosexuality is a
 sin, you say that God made a mistake. I'm offended when people say that God hates gays because my God does not make mistakes, and I believe he made homosexuals for a good, just reason.
