    RPG's are about choices. The more choices the better. If in real life we have the choice to be straight or gay then it makes sense that in an RPG you have the same choice.

    So yes, I'm with Bioware on this one.

    Totally with David here. Romances are always optional, you don't have to pursue them if you aren't comfortable with it.

    Wow, absolutely loving this article and the slew of comments it received.

    Sort of hoped some of them would've made it onto the forum. I could do with a good argument

    I love the same tired old logic-rape. That Jesus is my Savior dude:
    Look you guys, the Bible only cites homosexuality as being a sin for YOUR own safety. Think about it, if we started accepting homosexuality as being okay. Then how will we combat the scenario where the whole world is gay? And don't say that will never happen.

    Anyways if the whole world turned gay then how would the human race survive? It can't. Jesus loves you all and it is because he loves us that he is trying to protect us from killing ourselves out. I mean as it is we have so many other issues threatening to wipe out our race. So getting rid of homosexuality would just be one less thing to worry about.
    LOVE IT! I don't know if he was serious or just trolling but that's brilliant! Always astounds me that these types seem utterly oblivious to the fact that they've just announced to the world that if being gay wasn't "considered wrong" (in their worlds, at least) that they would be flaming queens. Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!

    C'mon, bring some of this vitriol to this thread so that I can have some fun.

    I cant agree with you more @Lycanthrope, this is incredibly amusing. I fear though that the Jesus is my Savior dude was actually speaking his mind, silly sod he is... Atleast this provides humor for the rest of us

    Methinks he who doth protest to much has something to hide

    I KNOOOOOOOOW. It's also such desperate fear-mongering, with absolutely no basis in reality whatsoever. It's like people who claim that without biblical prescriptions for morality, we'd all be raping and killing each other - one has to wonder what sort of person would say such a thing, and what secret desires they're suppressing. It's especially hypocritical considering that same person would likely claim that human beings are above such base animalistic urges because we're capable of rational thought.

    It's sort of hilarious that there's this prevailing sentiment that atheists have no basis for basic morality, when from a simple evolutionary and humanist perspective, it makes sense to cooperate with one another in order to perpetuate our own species.

    Similarly enough, I've always thought that those people claiming homosexuality is a choice might be covering up for the fact that they've chosen to been straight over their own natural inclinations. It's the only sensible reason for such an otherwise absurd claim.
