I hate everyone with white skin and body hair because they're holding back the evolution of our species, imho.

Homosexuality is an abnormality. We're inherently programmed by evolution to be wary of things that are not normal. If anything, it's the people who don't mind homosexuals that have personal issues.
Each one of these points is wrong.

The whole nature card is stupid and irrelevant, because even if homosexuality was an abnormality, it should have no effect on people and our way of perceiving it. As I see it, the human mind has transcended nature ages ago, being able to think abstractly and go beyond animal-like thinking. Sure, in a sense, we're just animals striving the survive, but things like homosexuality are so irrevelant in that. Homosexuality is people living how they feel they should, which should be ok with everybody. Naturally (hehe) the fear for anything different and the history of dehumanizing gays has it's mark on people.
As a bisexual, gender is of little importance to me. It's more about what you feel towards the person in question.

But... I could have loved you, Koki. :sniff:

There is very little difference between those two groups. Being opposed to homosexuality is rarely a consequence of logic and rational thinking. It is mostly the result of a strong personal emotion.
Maybe but there can be other factors, like bad ideas from some religions encouraging them to hold negative views.

Don't bring evolution in to this discussion - humans were created by aliens in genetic experiments.

And racists tend to be black?
Nonsense.
You don't live in America. Blacks are just as racist as whites. Some even say that the percentage is higher. And this has been said time and time again by not only black dudes I know, but even experts who study and/or are in the middle of race relations on various panels and in print.

Gunny I think you've misunderstood subjeff. He's criticising the idea that all people who have a negative reaction to gays are secretly gay themselves, by comparing to another kind of negative reaction to a group of people, where it would be ridiculous to apply that line of thinking. eg white racists are not secretly black people.

Edit: ... And now I've realized I have nothing useful to add to this conversation. Oh well.
