"I stand by my principles that if a man raises a Godly family he will not be cursed with a gay kid."
A child is a blessing. Period. If you feel otherwise, you do not deserve them. Shameful...people need a license to have a dog, but anyone can have a kid...
"Scripture teaches that if we raise our children in the fear of the Lord, they will not depart from it."
Until they move out, at which time they will likely run so fast, and so far, they'll likely break the sound barrier.
"Thank you, Mrs. DMG for your support on this."
Another candidate for removal from the gene pool, I should think.
"I can't believe the flack I'm getting for saying that I wouldn't allow my kid to remain in my home if he came home and told me he was gay."
Because that makes you a monster as a father.
"I would no more allow that than if he came home and told me he was on drugs or some other dangeous lifetsyle."
Asiding from the fact that it's jerk-offs like YOU that make being gay dangerous, I have 2 points:
1.) I guess you think this makes you better than those silly parents that try to "help" their waste of flesh children, huh.
2.) You acknowledge that your FLESH AND BLOOD is in danger, and you throw him headlong into it. I reiterate...you are a monster.
"As the father, I am responsible for keeping a Godly home."
I should think a LOVING and SAFE home would be higher priorities. Silly me.
"So how could I allow open sin to dwell in my home?"
Jesus forgave sin. Why can't you? Isn't that the object of Christianity? To be Christ-like? Hmmmmm?
"While it would be a hard thing, I am still required to do the right thing by my family."
And...just who is this helping? The child you're throwing into a life of sorrow, and misery, denied even a chance at being anything more that a street kid? A family rent asunder by your arrogance? You sicken me.
"If my child were young enough I would put them in a Christian facility until they were sufficiently treated."
And make sure they grow up to be as fucked up and confused as possible. Do you know how high the suicide rate is among "Ex" Gays? You want to know why that is?
"If they were older, I'd try to find someplace for them to go that would be safe."
Or is that what you'd tell your wife after turfing your child?
"In any event, as I said before, this is not something that's going to happen in my family."
Denial. Not just a river in Egypt.
"My daughter is 16 and defintely wants to be married."
So she's lining herself up to be barefoot and pregnant. I bet you're proud.
"My son is 12, and he's no mammas boy. I'm raising him to be tough and defend himself."
I shudder to think what you put that boy through, and how much therapy will be needed to undo that damage.
"He's been in a few fights, but I'd rather have that way than being a sissy."
So...you'd rather you raise an asshole bully, than a homosexual. You disgust me.
"And he knows what to do if a gay approaches him at school or anywhere else."
Flash forward a few years. Your daughter has been knocked up a few times already, and was forced to drop out of school due to pregnancy, as she doesn't respect herself as anything more than a baby vessel. Your son is in jail for, most likely, Assault and Battery, and I'd wager a few other petty crimes as well. Such a happy, godly family.
