(Note: The title was supposed to be "Dedicated to the February 14 Sermon", yet the title was too long to be put in.)

At one time, my school had a sermon about a law that permitted certain Ungodly things (i.e. homosexual couples). Since they chose February 14 arbritrarily, I had the day off. I drew this (although a lot later) in honor of the day.

Despite me practicing drawing them, I made a certain ammount of errors: Ms. Sakaki's eyes look weird and like a Charmander's, Ms. Sakaki's and Kaori's hands look wrong, Kaori's chest is too flat, and she looks like she is leaning back.

And despite what a lot of people say, I say that Kaori IS NOT a lesbian! She just admires Ms. Sakaki extremely, and I am a homophobe! (That does not mean that I will be violent/hateful towards homosexuals; it means that I do not aprove of their actions, me being a Christian.)

P.S. Good news for Christians: the law was not passed, so God still has an upper hand there! However, the new Puerto Rican civil code provokes the changing of all that. Fortunately, it is still a rough draft, so there is still time to pray that the new Civil Code will be acceptable in God's eyes when it is passed!


Update (January 10): I do not want to do a full on addition (even though I have composed one), yet all I will say is this: I am not the close-minded bigot you think I am.

Update (March 29): Meh, you would not believe me. Just look at all the comments people left on this picture and my replies to them.

Update (April 18): I cannot respond to any "pro-gay" comments, since I have some things to clear up in my life first (as in eliminating hypocrysy). However, I will leave you with a few comments:

* There is a difference between bigotry and prudence.
* "Gay-bashing" is as wrong as the gay lifestyle.
* This picture was not supposed to offend anybody, but if it did (which I know that it did), then pardon me. Also, I was not trying to bash homosexuals with this. I simply drew this out of inspiration.
* I...sounded kind of drongo when I called myself a homophobe, right?

Goodbye (for now).

Update (July 30): Considering what I have stated above and what you have done here, I say that a lot of you (but not all) have acted hpocritical. I mean that you are calling me (basically) a close-minded bigot, yet you are bigger bigots yourselves. I drew this because I was inspired by a sermon that resonated with my beliefs, NOT to offend anybody. I also made that Journal since I was tired of people attacking me for my beliefs. I did not go to anyone else's page/deviation and immideately bashed gays on it; I just kept my problem to my dA account. Also, in my Journal, I pleaded for tolerance. Your response? You desecrated my work, made a lot of senseless, hateful comments, added stuff to my Encyclopedia Dramatica article, mocked me in 4chan, and basically gave me heartbreak. All of that sounds like bigotry to me.

But still, all I did was present my views, and you treat me like trash? You call that "tolerance", especially since there is the freedom of expression and laws against discrimination due to religious beliefs? And if you were simply recting to the pent-up rage you had due to being gay-bashed (or due to all of the abuse gays had), you should know that I was not the same guy who bashed you. In all seriousness, the gay-basher is even worse off, since Jesus said to "hate the sin and love the sinner" and said to Pharisees ("holier than thou" people at the time) that fornicators and prostitutes are ahead of them regarding Heaven? (And I know why; Christians are supposed to be like Jesus, and Jesus never bashed a gay.)

I did not mean to cause pain to you. I simply had a different viewpoint. Please... -.-;

(And yes, someone told me about the author of Azumanga Daioh! confirming Kaori's homosexuality, and I believe that someone. *sigh*)

Update (Sep 19): I know this is weeks old, but the 1913 law was repealed, so homosexuals can go to Massachusets, "marry" there, and go back to their home state and stay as a "married" couple!

[This part got eliminated as of March 18, 2009.]

What is wrong with loving someone for what they are on the inside? I'm a Christian too, and i'm pansexual (currently in love with another woman) and I don't feel that i'm living in sin at all. Don't be homophobic. Its time to face the music realize that Homosexuality, Bisexuality and Pansexuality are not wrong.

*sighs* I expected an anti-homophobia comment, but from a "Christian homosexual"? *sighs* I guess I should start...

Being a "Christian homosexual" is like being a "Christian Satanist"; it is a contradiction of terms and ideas. (I am not calling you Satanist; I just used that for comparision.)

As you know, homosexuals were stoned to death, Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed for their "queerness," and a certain wide incident in the US happened because a gay pride parade was to be held there soon after. (I got the last one from one of my teachers; I do not remember the detail, though, yet it was recent.)

If God allowed homosexuality, he would not have bothered creating the woman or made sex a "baby-making ritual."

You are right for loving someone for what they are on the inside; however, that does not mean that you have to date/marry someone to show love. Jesus loves us without having to go into sex with us. (Sadly, sex with spirits is possible, yet that is not the point here.) You should love everyone, yes, but "sex love"? That should be reserved for that guy (Yes, I did say "guy".) that would make a good husband for you.

Did the world manage to fool you into thinking that homosexuality is right because they do "normal" things like us? I read that even high witches do normal things like us (like surfing and traveling), and they do not necessarily use demons in dong them! These people are bound by sin, and so are you! God did not say that men "lying down" with other men as with women is sin! (Granted, I think that it also applies to women "lying down" with other women as with men, since women have the sin nature, too.) (And before you say that "lying down" could mean "sleep with them", I read in the same Bible about virgins not knwing a man by lying with them!)

It is possible to engage in a sin without feeling guilty! However, if it is a sin, you should fix it immideately! You do not want to see the God Almighty and find out Him telling you that you engaged in a serious sin (Then again, every sin is serious.) and never asked for His forgiveness!

What the world calls love may not be love at all, but intense like, instead. Real love is being like Jesus to the other person, making his/her happiness your top priority concerning that person, and fulfilling his/her needs!

And another thing; the Bible does not change even if the world does

, so if homosexuality was wrong then, it is wrong now!

Do not engage in this sexual sin any longer. Ask Jesus to restore you. (If you still need help, try Porn Free, a Christian site against sexual sins, not just pornography.)

I am not doing this to be bad to you or because I hate you, but because I love you in the way Jesus does and I am concerned about you.

(Yes, I know I did 2 posts, but I accidentally sent my comment before I finished it.)

I'm not homosexual. I'm pansexual. Theres a difference. I love people for who they are not their sex, age (if its a legal relationship), or appearance. People should be free to love whoever they want. Once people are told who they can love or not, then it makes a mockery out of the whole concept.

...okay. Wow.

If you don't like the gay/lesbian movement? Fine. But DON'T use anime characters as puppets for YOUR beliefs. How on earth would you know if Sakaki supports gays or not? She's not portrayed as religious one way or another (and if she is anything, it's Shinto), and seems to love everyone.

And about your comments on your art - laws should not be passed due for CHRISTIAN reasons. Not everyone in America is a Christian. So laws should not be not passed just because they don't fit with the "Christian" code of conduct.

And because of what you said to someone else - homosexuality was wrong then, so it's wrong now, huh? There were a lot of laws in Leviticus. Let's see if you're following them all.

- Don't wear clothes made of more than one fabric (Leviticus 19:19)

- Don't cut your hair nor shave. (Leviticus 19:27)

- Any person who curseth his mother or father, must be killed. (Leviticus 20:9)

- People who have flat noses, or is blind or lame, cannot go to an altar of God (Leviticus 21:17-18)

etc etc.

How many of those have you been following, hm? After all, if it was wrong then, it's wrong now!
First, I did not use them as puppets; I was trying to tell people that I do not approve of homosexuality while also telling them that I do not think that Kaori's a lesbian. Also, Ms. Sakaki does not like homosexuality, not homosexuals. I also doubt that she would actually be violent against them, yet I also doubt that she would actually like the movement.

And about the "Christian law" thing, so? The USA was founded on the Bible, so it make sense. (Although I doubt they allowed homosexuality back then, I also doubt that they are not tolerant of other people's religions and stuff.) Also, is not God the Source of all good, and is not the best way to behave is to do as He says, regardless of the consequences?

And about the verses... let me read them first.

What makes you think that? I don't remember a thing about her that showed that she cared about homosexuality one way or another.

Also, is not God the Source of all good, and is not the best way to behave is to do as He says, regardless of the consequences?

Uh, that's what YOU believe. Not everyone is a Christian, or believes that - or believes in God at all. NOT EVERYONE IN AMERICA IS A CHRISTIAN. Jews, Muslims, athiests, agnostics, whatever - they all deserve a say in lawmaking JUST as much as any Christian does. This is a country of equal rights.

And about the verses... let me read them first.
You do that.

:clap:

I agree with everything you said. I first found this person when he commented on one of my drawings.

I am a Buddhist and I am also gay. The things that he posts offend me very much.

:no: I just don't understand people sometimes. Especially those who decide they need to spread their religious beliefs by attacking others' artwork.

You should check out his Encyclopedia Dramatica article. ;)
I don't want to hurt your feelings. Nor do I want to offend you...

But, this is sorta rude. No, I am not a homosexually, bisexually...whatever. But it's very offending. As a Christian I grew up that homosexuality is wrong and God frowns upon it. I always used to bash anything I thought was sick and I was VERY homophobic. If I was the same way I was back then, I would have well...I don't know. Grown up to be a discriminating Christian.

Didn't God said to love everyone? Then why do people are racist and have no souls? Why are people so sickening? Why are people so...bad? Didn't Jesus said love yourself like you love others? Flaws. The entire world is made of flaws.

So if you hate homosexuals, you hate yourself?

Yaoi and yuri, shounen ai and shoujo ai...gays and lesbians. Bisexuals. Pansexuals. Whatever.

If I should cut a lesbian she would bleed.

If I should cut a hetrosexual woman...well, guess what? She would also bleed.

I mean c'mon. Homosexuals are humans. They aren't aliens. They humans. Just like YOU and ME. I don't know what the church is teaching today, but it's disappointing.

I believe in God. I don't believe in prejudice.

I am for homosexuality. Yes, I am straight.

I draw yaoi and yuri all the time. Does it make it wrong? Do I sin?

What gives you the right to bash homosexuals? What have they done to harm you?

So a man and woman that hates it each other could get married, but two men whom ACTUALLY loves each other can't?

What has the world come to today?

My rant...ends...

Now.
