No. 👎
It is kinda counter productive to downvote a comment of someone that tries to engange in a meaningful conversation. Divisive topics should be more discussed, not less, and definately not discouraged/punished...
I'm not going to debate whether gay people should be allowed to express themselves.
I posted this two hours before your comment "I'm not religious and I'm not lgbtq either, but I will fight for either's right and freedom to practise their beliefs." Freedom of Expression is the most precious thing we have. I cannot understate how important this is. I feel like you might have misunderstood me, I should have tried to word myself better in my original, first post. I don't want to edit it, let history be a judge. It's difficult to thread lightly in this subject. It's a subject close to the heart of many people.
"oh, poor me, I used hateful rhetoric and people won't ENGAGE with me"
I try to better myself and my understanding of lgbtq. What was hateful, so I can perhaps word myself in a better way? Thank you.
