Mm, still not agreeing with that last bit, buuuut I appreciate it. I like it when people feel strongly about their beliefs like you, where you'd be willing to discuss it, but not take it out to the streets and do things like display those Westboro Baptist Church-esque signs. At least, I *hope* you don't. Probably not. But I think changes like this are inevitable, people will still be uncomfortable, of course, but more and more will accept it, since we are forever evolving as a race, mentally speaking. This is not a complete comparison, since they're *completely* different issues, but take for example the civil rights movement in the 20th century: whites weren't willing to integrate with African Americans, mostly in the South, but look at us now. I think it'll be like that, since there are still people today with inhibitions toward black people, and there'll always be people who won't accept homosexuality even in the future.

Look man, you don't have to respond by the way, you're not obligated to. It'll just lead to one of those pointless Internet arguments. You have your opinion, and I have mine, and I know that if someone sent me paragraphs trying to convince me against my own beliefs, my mind would still probably not change much. So, just, take Ellen Degeneres's advice.

For me, love is love, and even if it's as freaky as falling in love with an animal--bestiality, I know--then fine with me, actually. Not many people are born exclusively attracted to animals, so laws against bestiality will of course hinder some people, but not as many as it would if the laws were against homosexuals, since there are millions of gay people out there. I already see gay couples all over my school, mostly lesbian, and while it's unsettling for others, who's to say that they can't love? Not you, you're not a god. No one is or can, I'm not saying that to be rude. Bestiality is considered a sickness since it's not common in real life for different species to be attracted to each other, so you can't very much compare it to homosexuality because it's still a human-human relationship. But if someone were to fall in love with an animal anyway, it's not like they *chose* to, which is something you seem to think is a factor in homosexuality--choice.
