Why do people keep confusing the issue of BIGOTRY and the issue of RIGHTS?

People have a right to be bigotted.
I have said that over and over again, and some STILL can't figure out what I'm saying.

Whether or not people have a right to vote for a person just because he is gay is not a factor in whether or not it is bigotry.

Answer these two questions.

1) Is it bigotted to not vote for a candidate just because he is black?
2) Is it legal to vote for a candidate just because he is black?

I wouldn't vote for Pat Robertson because he's a flaming nut-job, which has little to do with his religion.
I would have no problem voting for a Christian. If I did, I wouldn't be able to vote...

Then you're a bigot also. I happen to think homosexuals are flaming nut jobs and so do a lot of other people.

Personally, I do not feel a gay candidate brings all to the table that I want in a congressman or higher elected official. I believe they are lacking in values and certain fundamentals that I feel higher elected officials need to have.

I can explain WHY I think SPECIFICALLY Pat Robertson is a nut-job, based SPECIFICALLY on what HE HIMSELF has said.
I am judging ONE MAN and his WORTHINESS to be president.

You are judging an ENTIRE GROUP of people based on ONE FACTOR and deciding their worth.

If you can't see how the latter is a sign of bigotry, and the former is not, then you are seriously lost.
Tell me Alias.
Would YOU vote for Pat Robertson if he ran?

I can explain why I think SPECIFICALLY homosexuals are nut jobs based on how they think. Anyone who thinks homo sex is normal, natural, and not perversion is in my opinion a nut job and I would not vote for them because of that kind of thinking. That is my right.

I would not vote for Pat Robertson in a primary because I do not think he would be a good president. If he was running against Hillary and the only other candidate, then yes I would vote for him.

Nobody is answering your question becuase skin color has nothing to do with your thinking process. You're confused again.

And that would be a sign of bigotry. And ignorance.
Homosexual sex IS natural. Found throughout NUMEROUS species in nature.
Homosexual sex is just as "normal" for me as heterosexual sex is to you.

And "perversion" is relative. Just a few decades ago, people considered oral sex and masturbation to be perversions.

Does that make you a bigot then, because you wouldn't vote for Pat Robertson?

And don't you realize how you blindly declared me as a "bigot" without even listening to my REASONS WHY I wouldn't vote for Robertson?

No "confusion" here, but plenty of excuses on your end.
Fine. Let's rephrase the question to do away with your mindless excuse.

1) Is it bigotted to not vote for a candidate just because he is Jewish?
2) Is it legal to vote for a candidate just because he is Jewish?


Go ahead Alias.
Keep finding excuses to avoid the point.
It just repeats my point over and over again, and PROVES you are incapable of addressing it...
