GLAAD to Ja Rule -- You Da Problem, Homey!

226. I don't understand what the big deal is, if someones kids see homosexuals making out on tv. It just makes it seem acceptable to them, Well great. So then when they grow up they won't be gay bashing and killing someone because there are some kind of un-educated idiot. Kids seeing 2 guys or 2 girls making out or doing anything else with each other is not going to make them gay. and if you really think it will, you need to re-plan your paranting skills so your not so self concious about how badly your raising your kids and trying to project it onto others so you don't have to accept blame. Good luck with all that.

I am all about spreading love, peace and understanding. Not hate and prejudice.

227. Ja Rule is a hypocrite for claiming to no what the moral decay of society is attributed to. His filthy rap lyrics and 'me, myself and I' lifestyle certainly contributes to it. And don't forget he cheated on his wife MANY TIMES.

But even if he is a hypocrite, he is still is correct. Homosexuality is shoved in our faces all the time and if we don't agree with it we are homophobic (who in the world is scared of gays?) or bigots.

On this one issue, I reluctantly agree with Ja Rule.

229. TMZ,
Your headline for this article is blatantly racist. GLAAD's actual response was well-written and perfectly measured while your headline was meant to be inflammatory and race-bating. It is frustrating for the gay community to have to be on the defense from people like Ja Rule, but we do not need racists on your staff taking up our cause.

232. ja rule was raised as a jehovah's witnesses. that is why he is against homosexuals. when you are in a cult and you leave there are things that you were told that you still believe. it took me years to get past that wrong teaching. i am so thankfully that now i can think for myself and i am proud to be gay friendly now.

236. Personally, I feel that everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion. That's one of those "things" that makes America great. However, I don't believe television shows and their contents (violence, sexual content, language, etc.) influence children/adults IF that child/adult is raised PROPERLY. Here's an idea to all those stupid asses who feel JaRule's comments are correct: Instead of blaming television for what's wrong with your children, try being a BETTER PARENT. I know that's probably a difficult concept to grasp, but instead of sitting your child's ass in front of a television for 8 hours a night, "worrying" about what they're watching (b/c I'm so sure that's what you do), try getting involved in their lives. There's this place, called a library, with...like...books you could READ to them. OR, if you can't stand the idea of actually taking an active role as a parent, there's a device called a V-Chip. Try that! But stop trying to blame television for what's wrong with your kids. Ultimately, YOU are what's wrong with your kids.
And P.s. - I'd much rather my child watch an episode of Will and Grace than listen to a cd by JaRule.

238. "A man who stands for nothing will fall for anything."

"We are nonviolent with people who are nonviolent with us."

"Don't be in a hurry to condemn because he doesn't do what you do or think as you think or as fast. There was a time when you didn't know what you know today."

"My alma mater was books, a good library... I could spend the rest of my life reading, just satisfying my curiosity."

"Stumbling is not falling."

"There is no better than adversity. Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve your performance next time."

“They put your mind right in a bag, and take it wherever they want.”

"We didn't land on Plymouth Rock, Plymouth Rock landed on us."

239. Why is homosexuality abhorrent to God?
First of all, there is no doubt that it is abhorrent to Him. Not only is homosexuality mentioned in the New Testament as we have seen, it is also listed among the laws God gave His people in Old Testament times. In a chapter which lists a whole range of sexual sins; adultery, incest, bestiality, etc., God's law commanded, "You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination" (Leviticus 18:22). A little later it adds, "Do not defile yourselves with any of these things; for by all these the nations are defiled, which I am casting out before you" (verse 24)

It has been suggested that the nations who inhabited Canaan before the children of Israel conquered the Land practised homosexuality and prostitution only in connection with their heathen worship, and that this is what the Law was trying to prevent. While it is true that there were both male and female prostitutes involved in the Canaanite idolatrous worship, homosexuality was also generally rife in many of the Canaanite cities. There is the obvious example of the men of Sodom in Genesis 19, where visitors to their city were vilely threatened - an act described by God's prophet as "an abomination" (Ezekiel 16:50). Sodomy has thus become a widespread term to describe the homosexual act.

Again in Judges 19, there is a similar incident where a visitor to Gibeah in Benjamin was threatened with homosexual abuse by the men of the city, who are described as "perverted men" (Judges 19:22). The age was one where "everyone did what was right in his own eyes" (Judges 21:25).

These two incidents, both of them unconnected with the religious worship of those places, show how homosexuality had infiltrated the very fabric of society in those days, just as it has today. It was never totally removed. Not long after the golden age of David and Solomon, history records that "there were also sodomites in the land: and they did according to all the abominations of the nations which the Lord cast out before the children of Israel" (1 Kings 14:24).

The Law confirmed that homosexuality is an abomination to God. But it also showed that it defiles those who practise it, and the society which tolerates it (Leviticus 18:27) - an aspect to which we shall return in due course. So abominable is it in God's sight that He commanded the nation of Israel that, "If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death" (Leviticus 20:13).

The key here is in the phrase "as he lies with a woman", and this is why homosexuality is abhorrent to God. For it was God who ordained the relationships between His creatures. Animals were created for the service of man, and man was "to have dominion over" them (Genesis 1:26,28). But nowhere in the animal kingdom was there found a suitable companion" for man (Genesis 2;18,20). Woman was specially created for this purpose, and this was confirmed by Jesus himself, when he said to the Pharisees in his day, "Have you not read that he who made them at the beginning made them male and female, and said, For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh?" (Matthew 19:4,5, quoting Genesis 2:24).

240. I KNOW SOME PEOPLE THAT ARE PERSONALLY JEHOVAH'S WITNESS, IF JA RULE WOULD HAVE REMAINED ONE, HE WOULD BE LIVING A CLEANER LIFE. YOU CAN BE HAPPY ALL YOU WANT, GOD WILL JUDGE US ALL, ESPECIALLY THE ONES THAT DO UNNATURAL THINGS, ITS DETESTABLE AND NASTY....
