Do u think its fair to judge people just because they are gay or not?
Me and my friend love to watch american idol. last season we both liked adam lambert, then one day she came to school and said she didnt like him anymore because she thought he was gay, this was all before he came out and told everyone. and i think its just really annoying that people judge people because of that, on american idol u should judge by whos the better singer not who isnt gay. and with the katy perry song "i kissed a girl" a lot of people at my school thinks she is gross and gay just because of that. honestly thats not that bad of a song, and one of my friends found out that i have it on my ipod and said "omg she is so sick! u should delete that right now." i know its in the bible and everything, but is it really worth it to take it that far? its there life not ours and who they choose to like isnt our business. so im just curious about what u guys think of this. thanks!
i personally do not really care if someone is gay or not. its there decision. i do read the bible, but i think some people are just a little to obsessed and to oppinionated. if i suddenly became gay most of my friends wouldnt want to be my friend anymore which would suck! and i wouldnt know what to do. i guess its a good thing im straight, but i still think that its completly judgemental and not fair to those who are gay

It isn't fair to judge anybody by something they cannot control.
Do your friends hate Africans because they are black? Mexicans because they are Latino? Do they amputees? People with dwarfism? People with blue eyes? Brown eyes? Short bodies? Tall bodies?
Being gay is not something that you can control, and not everybody in this country goes by the Bible. And, when it comes to the Bible, most people forget that there are only a few verses in the Bible that can be construed to be anti-homosexual, but many, many more that preach love towards everybody and treating people as you want to be treated. Judging is also a sin, but most people forget that.
It's a very sad world that we live in, when people will hate others simply because of something they can't control. Can you or your friends "control" the fact that you are attracted to guys? No. Just like I can't control the fact that I'm attracted to women. I can't just wake up one day and say, "Oh boy! Life would be so much easier if I were straight, why haven't I been?" I'm attracted to other girls because that's who I am.
It's nice to know that you are different than your friends and don't think that judging people on their sexuality is a good idea. Your friends probably know that judging people on their race or appearance is wrong, so why do they feel it's okay to judge people on their sexuality?
Judging is not okay, and all it does is make this world a way worse place than it otherwise could be.

For starters, the bible doesn't condemn homosexuality.. it condemns adultery, lust and such things.. That bible has been changed so much and it has so many versions that its meaning isn't any clear any more.. Suddenly after a couple of versions the word homosexuality appears in it.. Though for those christians who are obsessed with it, you could simply remind them that judging others is a sin.. The bible says so.. The only one who will judge is God on judgment day.. That will get them angry of course, but it is what the bible says and it hasn't shifted yet..
On another matter.. Of course it's wrong to judge someone based on their sexuality.. That is why if an employer fires an employee because of their sexuality, the employee can sue them and win too.. It's like judging someone cuz they have blue eyes or they are left handed.. Those are not decisions, same is homosexuality.. It is not a decision.. It's a natural attraction.. Does a heterosexual find himself in front of a decision ( at puberty or even younger ) to make, to either be gay or be straight? I don't think so..

I totally think it is SO unfair to discriminate against someone based on their sexual orientation. If someone is gay, that doesn't make them a bad person. You should treat people with kindness and respect, don't be mean to someone because of something they usually can't control, for ex, who they are attracted to. I also love american idol, and pretty much became a little obsessed with Adam Lambert. I hoped he wasn't gay, but not because I thought that would make him a bad person.. because I wanted him to be straight so I could eventually marry him! hahaha. But now that I know he's gay I don't like him any less and I think it is really stupid to stop liking someone just for being gay.

of course not! that is ridiculous and stupid of those people. i personally don't like adam as a singer, but i am sure he is a great guy and i think people should be proud that he came out and had the guts to do so.

Just because a person is gay, doesn't mean you shouldn't be friends with them.

Personally Gays gross me out, But as you said it's there life not ours. Let them live it. I don't however support gay marriage for the simple fact its in the bible. But god also doesn't hate anyone so why should we? But if they keep to themselves let them be them.
