I have to disagree. I think unending criticism and social stigmatizing of anti-homosexual behavior is the best way to change things. People need to know that their beliefs don't automatically deserve respect simply because they are religious in nature.

I never said anything deserved respect, all I said was that I don't see how people can have their attitudes changed by demonising them .... especially when they are in no danger from it.

Socially stigmatising people who in numbers vastly outnumber those requiring change would not seem to work.

Especially when you can not cause them any harm via the law or government.

Not going to defend them on this one. This is just silly.

Glad to see I misread you.

People kissing and loving each other? How dare they! Burn in hell, they shall.

Why even kiss in church though? Straight or gay I don't want to see that shit. (Catholic)

To get married. I think that is probably part of the point of the photos. Straight couples can kiss in church but gay couples cannot.

Alright Pope Francis, time to see if you'll actually back up your claims of tolerance, love and understanding.

Good point.

I agree, but neither is it diminished now.


I just don't see how acceptance is achieved by things like this.

I know correlation doesn't necessarily mean causation, but I've noticed a trend in that as gays have gotten more and more vocal, acceptance of homosexuality has been increasing.
