Session 31 - As a Gay Man, I think Ra's take on Homosexuality is idiotic

[YinYang]

Well, I've just listened to the Youtube clip in question, and I have to concur with Chandlersdad, he is definitely condescending towards homosexuals. Then he confidently proclaims they don't have the need to make a family... wha?? Says who? So according to him a gay couple isn't a family, kids or no kids, it's irrelevant. Then he says a gay man thinks "I'm a girl" and a lesbian woman thinks "I'm a guy"! I have yet to meet a gay man who thinks of himself as a girl or a gay woman thinks of herself as a guy, quite the contrary, they are very happy with their own gender. They just happen to be attracted to their own gender. He's confusing transgenderism with homosexuality.

Then he goes on to say "according to Ra, this is by no means a moral or punishable sin"... as if anything according to Ra is a moral or punishable sin. There is no such thing as "punishable sin" in the material. There is no right or wrong.

Then he says "there are many angry gay people in the world, who identify with being gay, which is shallow"... saying "I'm not proud to be white..." ~chuckle-chuckle~ With such smugness... He carries on to say they are very angry, and have deep pain and self-hatred... and says "do you really like yourself? Do you really like yourself? Are you really well?"

Then he says "sooory, that's just what Ra says..."

I switched it off, I've heard enough.

Just to touch on the family thing, I know two gay couples who are awesome parents to their kids. In fact, they did a study a while back to see how kids raised by gay couples compare against their peers, and interestingly enough they do better than their peers.
