Here are the questions our panel faced this week. Tell us what your answer would be or what you think our panellists need to say.
CHANGING ATTITUDES
Margaret Myles asked: I have a gay son and although I am sure it is not easy for him at times, but thank goodness he was not born 50 years ago. How far has the gay community advanced since the 1970s?
TRADITIONAL VIEWS
Martin Duffy asked: Why is it that Mr Fred Nile portrayed in media as narrow and bigoted when in fact his position (that homosexuality is morally wrong) has been the prevailing view of humanity for thousands of years - and is still the prevailing position in Judaism, Christianity and Islam (the majority of humanity). Is not the push to recognise homosexuality a minority group seeking to oppress the majority?
INCLUSIVE CHRISTIANITY
Timothy Ang asked: I left my faith about 10 years ago when my church was preaching ‘pray the gay away’ and I couldn’t reconcile faith and my identity. It was only when I met quite a few gay Christians along the way that I rediscovered my Christian faith and how to live life as a gay Christian.
Fred Nile, can you please affirm our Christian brothers and sisters watching this program, that being gay and Christian is okay in the eyes of our loving and inclusive God, so that they don’t have to deny being who they are in order to accept their Christian faith?
YOUNG AND QUEER
Lawson Tanner asked: The 'Growing Up Queer' report, released early last year, revealed that the over 1000 rainbow young people surveyed saw school as the most threatening place to be themselves, and I've personally heard some horror stories about coming out and identifying as queer at school. Why do you think schools are still not safe places for queer identifying students like myself, and what can be done about it?
TRANS AND RURAL
Dominic Sharkey asked: I discovered just days ago my dad's cousin who grew up in a rural community like myself was transgendered and underwent SRS in the 70's, an entirely different world as far as certain social attitudes go. The major difference in our stories however is that unlike the overwhelmingly warm acceptance and support I've been lucky to be met with, she was basically disowned by her immediate family.
My question to the panel is: Do you feel there was any one particular event, a catalyst so to speak, that was the turning point in social attitudes towards the Queer community or has this change been more ongoing?
TRANS SURGERY
Graeme Mitchell asked: If medicine is defined as treatment that aims to restore bodily faculties to their proper function, how does gender re-assignment surgery fit? Gender re-assignment surgery involves the deliberate damaging and mutilating of otherwise perfectly functioning bodily faculties and the twisting of them to an end toward which they are not ordered. How can this be considered good medicine?
MUSLIM AND GAY
Boran Izzet asked: Growing up as the son of very traditional Turkish Cypriot migrant parents, I always knew that I wasn’t like the rest of my brothers and sisters. As I matured into an adult and through my early 20’s I started to understand why I was different but struggled to reconcile my strong cultural upbringing, my faith and my life experiences. For almost 15 years I deceived the ones I loved, moved in the shadows and spent far too much energy constructing a persona they would be happy with, fearing their rejection otherwise. All of this took a serious toll on my mental and physical health. Through much pain and some rich and varied learning experiences I have come to be proud of who I am, however convincing my family to accept that the person I love isn’t Turkish, Muslim or a woman continues to cause challenges in our relationship. Do you think that the children of migrants to Australia have it easier or are our strong family/cultural and religious bonds actually a barrier to living a fulfilled proud life?
WHY GAY MARRIAGE?
Zahra Stardust asked: The campaign for marriage equality is now backed by multinational corporations and receives a significant amount of public attention. Marriage as an institution rewards people with social and financial benefits whose relationships resemble heterosexual ones (for example, if you are monogamous, co-habit, or share assets). To what extent is marriage equality an assimilationist campaign, seeking a seat at somebody else's table, instead of recognising our own diverse family and relationship structures, and what are the risks when debates around marriage equality obscures other ongoing social issues affecting our communities?
GAY PARENTING
Maeve Marsden asked: I am incredibly proud to have been raised by lesbian mothers. When I face hardship, it's my parents' bravery, pride, intellect, humour, love and care that I draw on for strength. Much of the discussion around families like mine is about whether same-sex parents can offer children 'the same' quality of life as heterosexual parents. But I believe that queer and alternative family structures have unique and positive qualities that mainstream society can learn from. What does the panel think that the Queer community can teach our straight friends?
QUESTION FROM THE FLOOR
Mother Inferior asked: Should State Schools seek the appointment of Drag Queens in place of School Chaplains?
