I’d argue most people don’t even realize they’re assholes.
Assholes are especially bad at recognizing that they’re assholes.
Assholes Recognizing the shit that’s coming out your mouth is the first step.
Marriage is a Christian concept. Christianity is against homosexuality.
That’s why gay people should not try to get the right to marry each other.
They should instead strive for a separation of church and state. Separate Marriage from legal partnership.
If gay people still insist on a christian marriage, then it is their responsibility to found a new church with a new approach to faith.
Edit: Since in today’s world even the simplest words can be misunderstood, I would like to add the following:
I don’t give a damn about homosexuals. They should take care of their own problems, just as I have to take care of mine without complaining to everyone else.
If that is already considered homophobia, then someone should at least tell me why.
Marriage isn’t a christian concept at all. It’s existed in almost every culture in the world for all of recorded history.
Alright.
But the LGB movement is most prevalent in western countries.
And in western countries we have a minority of Christians and Muslims.
Both Christianity and Islam find their roots in Judaism.
The legal construct of marriage in most western countries is entirely separate from the religious one.
Marriage is not a Christian concept - matrimony is. The concept of marriage predates the Christians by millennia.
And where is the difference between marriage and matrimony?
Both words translate to basically the same German word (I am German). So I have difficulties to understand the difference.
Christians did not create the concept of marriage. What fucking nonsense.
This sounds like obvious sealioning but I’ve got a minute so I’ll take the bait. If everyone applies that mentality it will almost always lead to the tyranny of the majority. What will cause a group that has even a slim majority to understand and take into account the needs of the minority. How will the majority even know there is a problem if the minority doesn’t (as you say) “complain to everyone else”. Just like the poster depicted says “so what” about it being gay being a choice, I don’t care whether people define that stance as “homophobia”. I do care that they understand why they shouldn’t do it.
I’ll take the bait.

To my understanding, that’s what we call democracy.
What will cause a group that has even a slim majority to understand and take into account the needs of the minority.
The needs of a minority are always taken care of to an extend, that the minority does not annoy the majority. To minimise conflict if you will. And minimising conflict is always in the interest of the minority because it ensures the status quo to the maximum extend possible. An example would be public healthcare. In case of the ultra small minority of homosexuals, there is almost no interest of making them happy in exchange of making the majority (still christians) unhappy.
Oh fuck off.
What kind of „Oh fuck off“ are you referring to?
Do you mean „Oh fuck off, I am not falling for your edgy rage bait.“ Or is it more like „Oh fuck off, leave this instance you nazi.“
complains about gay people getting married
“I don’t give a damn about homosexuals”
Alright. I am a hypocrite. I am annoyed by all kinds of movement. I can’t stand it to hear everyone complaining.
