Sounds like my grandparents:
"Pokemon is demonic."
"Harry Potter is evil."
"'An evil wind is rising...' (on back of Wind Waker case), What have I told you about this evil stuff!? >:( "

...But I still respect them and I just don't mention any of it around them. They were raised that way and they raised my dad that way. Fortunately, he's more of a free-thinker, but still holds on to the dearest Christian values. Like homosexuality is a sin... :(
My mom is quite liberal though, and I just found out that she's sort of a Deist; she reads the Bible for guidance, but is skeptical of all the parables and miracles and such. She is becoming increasingly awesome. This summer, I found out she got into an argument with her English professor about homosexuals' rights. :O

But, yeah, it's not that odd, just wait it out. XD

I hate to burst your bubble, but gayism IS a sin. Gay=SIN SIN SIN!
Thank you, but the sine of sine of sine does not equal a gay religion.
Sin and sine are different words.
... I know, I was using the fact that he was using a shorthand notation similiar to an equation... stop trying to kill my fun. D:

What?
Adding -ism implies that it is a religious belief.  Being gay is not a religious belief educate;
socialism
communism
capitalism
consumerism
prism (o wait lol)

My bad. Adding -ism to something indicates a set ideology and views on something.  being gay is just merely liking the same gender, nothing more.

Simply being gay isn't considered a sin by most Christian religions.  Acting on those feelings is, however.

The thing is, nobody's really gay. It's a choice people make. If it was a matter of heritage, then God wouldn't frown upon it.

Yes, fiction is fiction. It won't possess you to become satanist or anything.

"So sacrifice yourself, and let me have what's left.
I know that I can find the fire in your eyes.
I'm going all the way, get away, please.

You take the breath right out of me.
You left a hole where my heart should be.
You got to fight just to make it through,
'cause I will be the death of you."

Actually, it's uncontrollable inpulses.


You think that ALL teenage guys make the decision to REALLY like girls?
