What will you do if you know someone that is part of the LBGT community?

Pray for them.

Prayer is like masturbation.  If feels good, but it does nothing for the person you are thinking about.

Prayer is the exact opposite. Prayer leads you closer to God and the other is a sin and separates you from God's grace.

But if you want to be atheistic about it, then I'll ask you to provide evidence for your claims. God must necessarily be the First Cause of all, following the logic from Aquinas' 5 ways. Everything that is contingent must be brought about by something else. Since we can't have an infinite regress (otherwise nothing actually "is"), there must be something that comes before all. But the first cause must not be created, otherwise it is not the first cause. Therefore, the first cause must be Being Itself, non-contingent, infinite, the Unmoved-mover. That is what we call God.

And from there it makes sense that God cares about His creation. Prayer is the most effective way of achieving something because it does not rely on our imperfect abilities but on Him who is Perfection Itself.

Provide evidence for your fairy tale first.  I don't need to un-prove something that hasn't been proven.

I just did. If you want a more throughout explanation, read Aquinas' 5 Ways. (http://www.newadvent.org/summa/1002.htm) It can be hard if you have no training in philosophy and especially if you have never studied Aristotle's metaphysics but give it a read anyways.

If you refuse to read, you can't claim ignorance. Seriously, take 10 minutes and read the link. Aquinas makes better arguments for atheism than you will ever make, he's at least honest about pursuing truth.

Funny thing is I had a friend named Claire and I had no idea that she was a Lesbian until I saw her talk about it with her best friend. I had a crush on her and wanted to tell her about it for so long. I was really shocked at that moment. However, I didn't stop. I texted her few weeks later that I liked her only to get rejected. I was angry and abused her only to apologize later. We're friends now and I am cool with it but it really feels awkward when I see her kiss girls. How would she have babies though ;/

No one is claiming ignorance - just common sense. 

Honestly, we give you nut jobs many threads to post your cult propaganda.  You don't need to infest every other thread with your fairy tales.  :/

She can be artificially impregnated, she can have sex with a man, or she can adopt.

You're talking about one of the best philosophers of western history. It's clear that you have never studied any philosophy whatsoever if you don't know who Aquinas is and his contribution to the Aristotelian tradition. And it's clear that you're not acting in good faith if you refuse to even read basic philosophical arguments that both present the atheist argument and then responds to it. But if you refuse to read anything written by a Christian, then at least read some Aristotle.

Keep it in your cult, man.   No one becomes brainwashed at our age - it comes from our parent's repetitive lies.

I will not disrupt this thread any further.  If you want to discuss your fairy tale, create a new thread, or post in one of the many that already exist.

This thread is about bigotry.

Just respect theit decision being part of the community. Unless they are less provocative, I won't mind to criticize their sexuality. The provocative I pertain is when they overshow themselves being LBGT. Showing oneself with an other gender excluding male and female is not bad but it disturbs me when they overdo being it.

I'd say that prayer is even better than masturbation. If you masturbate too much, then you will face health issues. On the other hand, if you do payers all the day, there is no serious harm with the exception of time loss. But I agree with the end result. Prayer is just a waste of time. It makes you feel good, but there is no other benefit attached to it.

As person I don't really mind others sexual preference because life is all about doing your part as an individual regardless of your identity. Just let them live and let them happy as long as they don't affect others way of living.

"Try to accept others and you will have peace."

NO I AM NOT!!! but if you will have someone to know that he/she is part of the LGBT community will that be a problem ? we should just accept them and let them live their life as they want .. i have known so many of it and as i see them they are awesome .. they are more productive and caring in their family than just those whose not !! let them be part or our planet and accept them because like us they are also a human being !!

Is it an issue when you know a person that is gay or a lesbian in other words a part of the LBGT community?

Are you a parent that have a child that is part of the LBGT community?

that's not really a problem for me, someone's sexual orientation issue is their personal right, provided they do not do it in public, not in front of children, and do not disturb my family.
if there are friends or family members who have sexual orientation deviations, then I will try to advise them to get back on the right path and not be involved in the LGBT world.

[Malsetid]

Do you have to do naything? I treat evryone with the same respect if they are not really doing anything bad to me. Being a mber of the lgbt community shouldn't warrant a different status. They're pretty much just like us.

[neya]

as of now, LBGT is already accepted in our country. And there is no issue about them.
 It's not a sin to become a LBGT even thought it's not written in the bible.

      I am agree with your statement, nowadays this is not issue in our community lets embrace the fact the LGBT community because they are also people who are confused with their gender. And it is not bad to have a friends, siblings, and even though a parent lesbian and guy. They are also people who are stepped because of their gender. As long as they are not doing anything that can harm many people I am okay with them.
