    • I agree with Peewong.homosexuality isn't a disease or a mental disorder which many professionals in the psychology field thought was the case decades ago.It is a lifestyle induced by partly mental, hormonal, and biological influence.I do not believe that homosexuality is necessarily a choice, the lifestyle maybe, but homosexual tendencies/homosexuality are a natural part of selective mating.In fact it is proven that 90% of the animal species on Earth have members which practice homosexuality.Also, 9% of sheep are gay, so when religious zealots and Jesusfreaks say that homosexuality is unnatural, that is complete and utter rubbish.

    • Again and again, it's so sickening to see how close-minded people are. I think the man at the end of the pod summed it up nicely, in that if one lives a different lifestyle that doesn't disrupt the livelihood of another, then that there should be no problem--there is no problem! And I'm so tired of people saying that gay people can be 'repaired.' There's nothing to repair! Seriously.

    • I did check out the original the sharpness is better. I think this an excellent sampling of how ''unwanted people'' are treated in foreign nations. Though there was some great dialogue. Good work, maybe try putting the same audio with different videos (maybe a couple different versions) see which is more receptive.
      Feel free to check out my first vid launch, We Create.

    • Gays in Israel actually have more rights than American gays - they can serve in the military openly, have their partnerships recognized, and share benefits.

      It's sad to see that so many people in Israel are anti-gay, but keep in mind that they are a small minority, and that most people there are tolerant.

    • I didn't realise that there is so much persecution in Israel, but I'm not surprised.

      It's also very encouraging that gay people stand up for their rights in the face of so much bigotry.

      Thank you for bringing this to my attention and making me feel so lucky.
