Got deleted again when I respond to 祥文 that prejudice feeling is not someone one born with, but learned later in life.

This poster said he would be he is born with the 'feeling' of disgust if he see two gays kiss, so he wanted to have the rights not to rent out apartment to gays.

I pointed out to him that bias, prejudice, bigotry is learned and not 'natural born feeling',

Racist who are disgusted by seeing a person of his own race kiss someone of another race. Is that reason enough not to have anti-racial discrimination law that prohibit racists from renting out apartment to a person of the race he is prejudiced against? Of course not.

So, his feeling toward gays is probably learned when he is young. I would like to add here that I left out on the original post, that he might have learned it from his family. As his brother is one of the worst bigot I have met in my life.

They did 'hide' the thread, and I'm not sure if it is deliberate or not. Here is the link.
