There is more logic in racism than there is in being anti-gay.

One study said that "race" genetically determines about 10% of us, which is pretty insignificant compared to what society views it. That number will continue to dwindle with "interracial breeding". I still wouldn't say there's any logic behind discriminating "races" especially considering that 10% difference is probably smaller when you compare any two random individuals.

The continent of Africa seems like a pretty decent reason for racism. It's a terrible place.

Quit generalizing. As a whole, Africa is an extremely diverse place and not some backward, famine-ridden wasteland.

I forgot about all of those democracies that are doing so well in Africa. Today, we only hear about famines, Al-Qaeda terrorist attacks and HIV. It is sad.

I believe a great many Africans would kill me just for being a pastey white boy regardless of my behavior towards them. Am I wrong to believe this? Regardless you can't argue against the fact that the overall infrastructure is almost too messed up to be fixed and their Human Development Indexes are generally very low.

In the real world, almost anywhere you go in Africa, white people are met with extreme hospitality and great respect as if they are a rockstar. The majority of Africans generally have strong positive bias towards white people, regardless of what white people did to their continent.
And homicide rates in the quiet parts of Africa, where there isnt war going on, are on average five to twenty times lower than in the US.

Personally, I think that homosexuality is gay.
What makes it inherently wrong is what I don't understand. When they say that everybody is equal, the word everybody also includes everybody.
Discrimination against a group that cause absolutely no damage to society is very stupid. Hell, gays contribute more to society. Has anyone seen a poor gay couple? These guys have cash. No women to waste it on.
One of my roommates is a muslim and he hates the gays (obviously), I get super defensive and shit to a point where he wonders if I'm gay. I say bitch, this is fucking Canada, you don't discriminate against people here. That normally shuts him up

Here is your Christian perspective:
I believe that the bible does not forbid monogamous homosexual relationships. I have come to this conclusion hanging out with some excellent theologians and NT scholars who have a strong understanding of Koine Greek.
Every time homosexuality is mentioned it is in connection with slavery and oppressive type relationships. I think the context found when the NT mentions homosexuality is that of prostitution and pederasty. Not monogamous relationships.
Even if I did not have the conclusion I would still support marriage equality fully.
What a sad story about the pastor, that is not the God I serve.

The world would be better off with more homosexuals. They're usually educated and they don't have kids. A lot even adopt kids. What could be better for society?

What makes you think the majority of Africans want to kill white people for no reason? Dude, shitty humans exist everywhere, but to say that the majority of a population wants to do that is beyond ignorant.

Moreover, the reverse is true. Many Africans all over the continent think very highly of white people. Embarassingly highly, in fact.
