  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

What about Mpox? The primary method of it spreading isn’t sexual contact, and if you’re worried about it then get the vaccine.

One can have sex with more than one partner and not get or spread STDs. Education is key.
I’m not worried about it. However, I’m concerned for others.

Well, straight couples also engage in those sex acts and lesbians may not be doing that sex act, so using that as this deciding factor of morality is false.

As for the LGBTQA “screaming for the right to sleep with as many partners as possible,” that’s not what they’re screaming for nor is it want the rights movement is about. If that’s all you are able to distill from it, that’s a you issue.

And, frankly, it really is nobody’s business how many people somebody has sex with. The government should legislate people’s sex lives. If somebody wants to have sex with 0, 1, 100, or 1,000 people, that’s their prerogative.
You missed the point. If people harms themselves through their own actions, that’s their own fault. They can’t cry and say, they’re the victim.

They’re not.

Yeah…and spread diseases in the process. How about monkeypox?
They don’t care. I have plenty of experience in that community. Monogamy and faithfulness is the least of their concern. It’s truly vile.

That’s not entirely true. If you look at the statistics, the outbreak in 2022, 98% of those who caught monkeypox were gay or bisexual men.
The left still screams love is love.

They should be ashamed.

Or just don’t sleep around with others. Most gay men really don’t understand that concept, sadly.

Yuck

That would mean that 98% were bisexual or gay, not that 98% or bisexual men or gay men got it, lol. Most people have sex without being exposed to Mpox.

Who’s talking about being a victim? You introduced that narrative.

Yuck.

That would mean that 98% were bisexual or gay, not that 98% or bisexual men or gay men got it, lol. Most people have sex without being exposed to Mpox.
That’s not what I said. Read the sentence again, it makes perfect sense.

Yes, most people have sex without being exposed to mpox but that doesn’t mean the risk isn’t there. The evidence shows that the virus is mainly spread among gay and bisexual men, which poses a risk to others, so I’m not sure why you’re dismissing that fact.

Sounds like the risk isn’t there for an overwhelming majority if “98% of people who got it were gay/bi men.” You need to pick a narrative, lol.

The risk for Mpox is a fraction of what COVID is/was and is. Let’s regulate where we get pets from, continue teaching how to prevent STDs, and call it a day. Marginalizing an entire demographic because Mpox is stupid.

Ok, whatever, you're just grasping at straws. What I said is perfectly logical.

So because the risk isn't as high as COVID, does that mean it's acceptable for them to keep doing what they're doing and potentially endanger others?

Either we all run a risk of getting it, or 98% of people who get it are men who have sex with other men. It can’t be both.

If you practice safe sex when having intercourse with men, you minimize your risk of getting Mpox. Problem solved. Considering heterosexual people spread STDs too, should we start cracking down on what heterosexual people do in their bedrooms? Heterosexuals now make up the majority of HIV cases, should we start talking about their sin? Legislating their practices? Or does the “for the common good” argument only exist when you think about sex acts among people that you find gross?

I'm sorry my views differ from yours, but according to the Bible, these acts are unnatural and clearly not safe as well.

As a Christian, I consider what the Bible teaches and I am also concerned about the health and safety of others.

I don't see the point in debating with someone who holds leftist views, as they often provide unhelpful responses and twist arguments to fit their agenda.

Your question is irrelevant.
