That does little to actually answer the question asked of you, Lola. Whether you converse with a homosexual or not wasn't my question. It was "How does intolerance and hate make the world a better place? Why should we respect a viewpoint we find to be wrong? In some cultures, perverse acts with children are widely accepted. Is that also a viewpoint we should respect, or at the very least, shut up about and look the other way if we find it disturbing or wrong? If not, explain the difference. Renting a room from a person of a certain orientation doesn't exclude you from questioning your viewpoints, and is something I find altogether irrelevant, honestly. My landlord's sexual orintation has nothing to do with this conversation, so I'm not sure what makes yours relevant?
