- 0zzy, on 10/12/2007, -53/+12I was thinking the same thing. And btw, is it me or are there a lot of gay things going on recently? With the republicans, and that christian, and people coming out the closet. All in 2006, must be a popular year.

- Atom, on 10/12/2007, -7/+49Its sad that someones sexual orientation is national news. Does People Rag have nothing better to do then report on some poor guys sexual preferences. I dont care one way or another, as long as the guy continues to act at a quality level, his after hours enjoyment is none of my business. When was the last time you heard how an actor was heterosexual? You dont because no one cares. It should be treated just the same if theyre homosexual.
- EtherGnat, on 10/12/2007, -1/+26@Atom
I agree with you 100%. On the other hand, this story prompted both of us to click on this story, so maybe we're both hypocrites. ;) - Roger, on 10/12/2007, -5/+18@Atom:
You're acting like if someone's accusing him of being gay.
The guy announced it HIMSELF in an interview. Obviously he doesn't mind who knows. - judsond, on 10/12/2007, -3/+16Also, you know, this is E Online, and People magazine. These are publications that do celebrity gossip. It's not a state department briefing. So, yes, a celebrity coming out is news for celebrity magazines. :)
I like how you assume it's "sad" and he's a "poor guy" maybe coming out is a happy event for him? Crazy idea I know... - Atom, on 10/12/2007, -14/+11Roger youre missing my point. If someone such as Russel Crowe or Mel Gibson came out and said they were heterosexual, no one would bat an eye. However, whenever some one comes out and says theyre homosexual its an automatic story. Its not only sad, it reminds us that as far as weve come, we still love to point the finger at anyone who is different from us.

It's not that /someone's/ sexual orientation is national news, it's Neil Patrick Harris' sexual orientation. I wouldn't care if Jim Bob from Minneapolis came out of the closet, but I do find it hilarious that the guy who wanted to go to a strip club and pick up chicks in Harold & Kumar is gay. - gb506, on 10/12/2007, -15/+1My wife, she is tight like man's anus...

I thought we were past that.- smafty, on 10/12/2007, -7/+18Exactly. Good for him, but I really don't care about what goes on in his personal life.
- Roger, on 10/12/2007, -35/+5Well because "going gay" isn't the natural way people turn out and its interesting to note that Doogie did.
Sorry if that offends anyone, but its the truth. - oOLiquidNightOo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10i accidently thumbed you up.
why does it still make the news? for the same reason that we have to endure speculation of any other celebritie's sex life, hetero or *****.

Doogie Howser was a cool show, I'm sure alotta people here have at least heard of it. - mrapplegate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Guess not. I think he is the funniest one on that show, gay or not.

I know him from How I Met Your Mother.

Are you flirting with me? ;P - bugninja, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Because millions of people watch his new show where he is a womanizer and a male shovenist. It could ruin "How I Met Your Mother" because of the extreme difference between his character and real life. I think it's more about that than the actual fact that he is a gay man - which I do believe most of us don't really care about.

Why? Seriously, stop and think about what you just said. What have gays ever done to you, ever? How is their existence harming your life. They want the same things you want - a loving companion to share the rest of their lives with, a family, a house, or in other words... the American dream. Just because they were born gay doesn't mean they don't deserve these things!
Don't persecute people for things that aren't wrong and that they can't change. If you really want to be a true Christian, follow the golden rule: "Do on to others as they would do on to you." - JoseGosdin, on 10/12/2007, -63/+3God has blessed America because up until now, America has primarily been a Christian nation.
Once that changes, we're in trouble. Acceptance of gays is just one sign of us changing.
Start standing up FOR GOD! - JoseGosdin, on 10/12/2007, -55/+5Leviticus 18:22
22 You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination.

Leviticus 20:13
13 If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltiness is upon them.

Romans 1:26-27
26 For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural,
27 and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error.
God is really serious about homosexuality - real Christians are too. God will punish our nation if we don't turn and follow Him! - DrewBlood, on 10/12/2007, -4/+37The only thing that surprises me about this thread is that Christians still think quoting the Bible at a rational person will have any effect except causing the giggles.

If you want do do the scripture thing......
A priest's daughter who "plays the whore" is to be burned to death. Leviticus 21:9
God lays down the law on menstruating women. Such women are to God both filthy and sinful, and anyone who comes near them is contaminated by them. Leviticus 15:19-30, 33
If a man has sex with an engaged slave woman, scourge the woman, but don't punish the man. (Even if he raped her?) Leviticus 19:20-22
If a man has sex with a menstruating woman, they both "shall be cut off from among their people." Leviticus 20:18
God defines the value of human life in dollars and cents. Of course, to God, females are worth considerably less than males (50 - 60%) -- but neither are worth much. Leviticus 27:3-7
If you don't respect all of the other stuff in Leviticus, why should you care about where it talks about gay people?
You are a retard.
You can hate gay people all you want, but unless you're locking your wife up while she's on her period, you are a ***** hypocrite. And if you are... Well, I hope I never meet you in real life.
Praise Jesus! - Highborn, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7@JoseGosdin
Look man, you just don't get it. Sure according to the bible homosexuality is sin. So we won;t even go into the validity of the bible, let's just assume the bible is right and true and all of that, and homosexuality is wrong for the sake of argument . . .
Homosexuality is wrong, it is sin. All sin is punishable by death. Have you sinned? Maybe it wasn't homosexuality but it was something as all humans are sinners. God does not place weight on different sins as they are all punishable by death. Instead Jesus died so that you don;t have to. It does not make you more righteous than anyone else, that was how the Pharisees thought about things and they were the enemies of Jesus.
If you really believe in Christianity and that homosexuality is wrong then you should have compassion and try to help people with an attitude of humility as you are no better.
You misrepresent God and are Blaspheming. You should check yourself. - MajorD, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Umm, theoretically, didn't God create gay people? Open your eyes and rub the bible gunk out please. Not everything in this world revolves around a book.
- JoseGosdin, on 10/12/2007, -35/+1@MajorD
No, everyone is born heterosexual. The bible covers this in Genesis 2:24 where God says a man is to "leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh".

Great quotes. I just wanted to add:

11 They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.

(Leviticus 19:19)
@ JoseGosdin: Funny, that "no blended fabrics" sin falls right between your two "no gays" quotes.

- Amadeus2490, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9To all the people saying "so?" when it comes to being gay nowdays:
Just because *you* apparently are okay with people being gay doesn't mean that everyone is. If you'll notice there are alot of people who judge people completely differently when they're gay. They go from being just another person into teing a "gay guy", even if they "accept" them. And of course, there're alot of people (mostly males) who act extremely immature, and constantly talk about how "disgusting" gay people are and always put down homosexual males (yet they're totally fine with two women hob-knobbing each other. Go figure) While we're on the subject, i've had countless women ask me if guys think it's hot when two women do it, but when I ask them if two guys are considered hot, they instantly say "eww! no!! that's disgusting!!"
Personally, I think it's wrong that we're judged by who we choose to *****, as that's supposed to be an intimate thing between two people. YOu're right in the respect that it shouldn't really matter, but I highly doubt gays will ever be accepted as just normal people.- clickwir, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2I think the point is that this isn't DIGG style news.

When you present something as a fact (as you did above), then yes, the burden of proof does apply. Since you have no proof, I can understand your discomfort with facts.
"I assert there's an Invisible Pink Unicorn. Now it's up to you to prove me wrong, otherwise she does exist."
^ ^
The straw man arguement is not a defense nor is it a "fact". Now, if you happen to think God is an invisible Pink Unicorn (doesn't matter what you call "God" after all), then that is another issue altogether.
"Now can't we all just get along?"
The world is big enough for those who believe and don't believe there is a God.

Here's my contention though. The fact that he came out and he's gay doesn't matter.
It's the fact that it doesn't matter is what's newsworthy. Also, I think it would be cool if over the next season of How I Met Your Mother they throw a couple dudes into the mix of who he's serial dating, and then, on the show, don't even mention it as something. That would rock.
