Oh I know that but it's the people who I thought would be tolerant that surprised me.

[Pappy]

WOW, still going. PatM I am a very tolerant person, but not very open minded at all, I don't really care what you or others do or think as long as it doesn't effect me or my family, but I do know what I think is right and wrong and not much could be said to change my mind, so open minded I am not.

Thats a very good way of putting the distiction in words, Pappy. Tolerance of an idea and embracing an idea are not the same thing.

I didn't read all the comments because they started going South a little bit, but no network TV for me. I watch "Naked and Afraid" on my lunch break at work and that's enough for my whole day. I can't stand it for the same reasons. The commercials are ridiculous and the shows are nothing but smut garbage to rot your brain and keep us occupied in our tiny little self absorbed universes. Entertain us... and we're less likely to pay any attention to the bigger problems at hand. I feel the same way about big sports - nothing but distraction on a massive scale. No thanks.

 It's hard to be tolerant without being open minded.

Awww, it's caught a second breath.

I turned my idiot box completely off four years ago.  Homosexuality is an unnatural sexual deviation.  I do care care what others do in the world, regardless of whether it affects me and my family or not, because the world and morality don't revolve around me and my own personal views, and immorality/scandalous behavior always affect someone.  There is only one truth fellas, sorry.  That truth exists regardless of how any individual might "feel".  How's that for PC?

Well, you're entitled to that view but it's technically incorrect. Homosexuality appears in pair bonding animals in nature at about the same rates as it does in humans, so the whole "unnatural" thing is just not true.

   Ever see a video of our closest relatives, the Bonobo?   Or a herd of bachelor sheep?

I don't know about you guys, but I'm not an animal, I was made in the likeness of God.  So I guess I'll rephrase.  Two dudes kissin is a deveation from the divine image we were created in.  I tried to avoid it, in order to comply with the board rules, but there it is.  In all fairness, sex and sex in media is out of control, whether it be hetero, homo, bi, or any flavor that a given perverse mind might dream up.  TV RIP.

Ugh...this still has breath?

[Josh B]

This can go nowhere but downhill.  Folks please....PLEASE let this thread die the ignoble death it deserves.  Josh

[Pat B]

If it doesn't die on it's own, I'll kill it!   

[Buffalogobbler]

Please do Pat,
it is disappointing to see some of the comments made here.
