Are you willing to say that homosexuals who don't approve of everything that a straight person does is heterophobic? You'd have to in order to be consistent, wouldn't you?
If Archaea's statements were limited to saying that homosexuality was a sin, then you could be right. His statements go far beyond that, though, and most certainly indicate a high degree of homophobia.

As to your heterosexual analogy, it doesn't work. We aren't talking about "approving of everything that a [homosexual] person does. That statement suggests that I must "approve" of homosexuality or I must be a homophobe- a false dichotomy. It also suggests that I have to approve not only of the homosexual acts, but of every other thing homosexuals do.

Approval is not required. Tolerance is. If you simply cannot tolerate homosexuals in any way, shape, or form, then yes, you are homophobic. Tolerance isn't even equated with accepting their right to marry. It is equated with treating them as human beings in a decent manner rather than making snide, rude comments about them every chance you get (as I think Archaea does).

By the way, why is it that the right compares everything in life to a card game? I have never seen your game, but it sounds like the race card and homosexual card are kind of like the queen of spades in hearts?
Or maybe the card game is hearts and the race card and homosexual card are the same card- the black queen?

The PC police strike again.

According to their omniscience, anybody who doesn't buy into their agenda, the gay male one, or who finds gay sex, distasteful, is homophobic. IOW, if you ain't humping a guy, you're a homophobe.

Well, other than here, which is mostly fun, most of us tolerate gays. I actually have some gay women friends, no gay males, except some designers who hang out with the wife. When the marriage proposal came through Nevada I even refused to put a sign in my yard. Other than to argue with gay blades like Hoya, I don't see any reason to raise a fuss about it.

Intellectually, I don't tolerate their bullshit. That's all. Their arguments are pure refuse. without solid foundation or should be recognized as such.
