    Re: You forgot about statistical and moral deviations, Lady



    Tiassa,


    ** First off don't hold me responsible for what Christian's did to homosexuals. I think it becomes a moral deviant when homosexuals claim God created them Gay. But then again my answers suck.

    This is because you are a bigot.

    Since you have still done nothing to substantiate your claims that homosexuality is morally deviant in the same way as pedophilia or beastiality, I would have to agree.

    Tiassa: I can't figure out whether we agree on any of this or not.

    If your answers suck, Lady, it's your own problem

    If your answers suck, it's only because you're insisting on them while pretending to inquire about various issues. I get the feeling, interacting with you in these threads that your inquiries have nothing to do with resolving issues of your own intellect, but rather seek to start a discussion in which you might repeat again and again a principle that you hold to be true. It's almost as if you're standing with your hands over your ears shouting that you can't hear anyone.

    And why hold you responsible? The simple fact is that the history you don't want to be held responsible for happens to be an essential part of the answer to the alleged questions you've posed.

    I'm sad to hear, though, that you find detailed examinations of what God actually said in the Bible to be morally deviant. (Although I'm not surprised.) Perhaps the Christians who persecute shouldn't be encouraging so much moral deviance by raising issues that call for such examination of Scripture and the ethics derived therefrom.

    In the meantime, each new post you put up seems to dodge the issues you yourself raised and seeks some new way to re-establish your opinion as fact.

    Why do you refuse to discuss the information offered in response to the issues you chose to raise? I find it puzzling behavior, since it resembles that of some of our past hostile posters.

    thanx,
    Tiassa

    But are homosexuals created gay? Or is it choice. No one told the homosexual community to blame God for their behavior so how am I a bigot


    The simple laws of procreation should be enough to prove homosexuality is a deviant however I never said it was in the same manner that the rest are.

    ** Why do you continue to keep writing me? If I aggrevate you so much.
    **The problem is you don't believe the scriptures, so whats the point?
    ** Perhaps my hands is over my ear's because you talk to much and blame me for all the sin's committed by Christians.

    How do you explain homosexual behavior in animals?

    That you, in your vast self-righteousness, decree their behavior as something they must be ashamed of, and therefore "blame" on someone, makes you a bigot. You still have no support for the idea that homosexuality is deviant or wrong.

    Ignorance is a choice, and it's one that you're making with every post and every breath. That's not something that can contend with reason, except to ignore it, which is how you are able to make your preposterous deductions. I'm through trying to have an actual conversation with you, since you, in your blindness, are dedicated to nothing but hate and stupidity.

    Does anyone else get annoyed that Lady usually has more quote than actual input.....

    Why don't you just draw the relevant parts out, they can look up if they want the rest.

    * The bible states it as wrong along with many other things.....perhaps you should vent your anger at God.....Not me
    * I didn't say they should be ashamed I only asked why blame it on God? Doesn't sound like judgement or bigotry.

    * Once again procreation should be enough to prove homosexuality a sexual deviance, whether its wrong or right is up to the individual.

    If there is homosexual behavior in animals(I DOUBT) what does it matter? Because no where in the Bible that I read is animals unlike humans held accountable for their actions. I still hold on to the belief that animals have sex only durning mating season. Image if animals had sex like humans they would totally rule the planet.

    I could point out that the "holy bible" is just a book, and that only a quarter of the world even acknowledges its validity, and even those that do can't agree on it's meaning. I could also point out that nowhere in the bible does it expressly say that homosexuality is evil, a sin, or condemnable in any way, by Man or by god.

    I could point out that the idea that homosexuals have to "blame" their lifestyle on anything indicated that it's something to be ashamed of.

    I could also reiterate that, since homosexuality occurs in animals, and since heterosexuals have sex for pleasure, masturbate for pleasure, eat for pleasure in addition to sustainance, and do all kinds of things that lack utility, such as watch TV and post on message boards, homosexual sex can hardly be described as deviant just because it doesn't serve the purpose of procreation. Not every act must have utility to be valid, sex included. Unless you want to call eating chocolate, posting on SciForums and going to church functions deviant behavior as well.

    I might be bothered to mention that you display hate by lumping the homosexual act/lifestyle into the same category as acts and lifesyles that are clearly harmful and clearly detestable. Anyone who doesn't hate the abuse of children or who isn't disgusted by sex with animals is clearly perverse, or a reprobate, as these acts are harmful, dangerous and probably malicious. Including homosexuals in this category would only serve to target them for hate.

    If I were so inclined, I would point out that the fact that homosexual sex is a choice has already been established, and that it's really not any kind of defense against my comment about ignorance. You are choosing to think your narrow little thoughts, and beat your chest because your faith in some bigoted, wrathful "supreme being" apparently makes you better than other people. Didn't Jesus want his followers to befriend and help others, not label them, denounce them or condem them for being sinners? Weren't his closest followers prostitutes, thugs and violent killers? As I recall, they were.

    Unfortunatly, I'm a busy guy, and can't be bothered to waste my time making all these points. I'm done with this thread. I'll reiterate my earlier comment: I'm glad that small people who hate others because they don't like or understand them don't make the rules, at least not all the time.

    Bonobo

    Status: Bonobos are endangered due to destruction of
    their forest habitat and bushmeat hunting. Estimates of their
    population range from 5,000 to 20,000 animals.

    Name: The name "bonobo" is derived from the town of
    Bolobo which lies on the Zaire River in the western area of the
    Democratic Republic of Congo.

    Sex: Bonobos live a relatively peaceful life compared to
    chimpanzees. This is due largely to the fact that female bonobos
    are eight times more available to males for mating and there are
    equal numbers of females to mature males so there is less
    fighting for mating rights. Sex is an important way to ensure
    group stability and ease tensions. Bonobos substitute sex for
    aggression, and sexual interactions occur more often among
    bonobos than among other primates. Reduced male aggression,
    strong bonds between males and females, and frequent sex
    (including male-to-male and female-to-female) characterize
    bonobo society. However, the rate of reproduction in the wild is
    about the same as that of chimpanzees (a single infant is born
    every five to six years) beginning at age 12.

    Frequently asked questions about bonobos:

    What is that big thing on the bottom?
    The female genitalia is on the outside. During her monthly cycle
    (estrus), the bonobo genitalia will swell.

    What are they doing?
    Bonobos engage in sexual activities of all sorts— frequently for
    purposes other than breeding. They use heterosexual and
    homosexual activities to release excitement and tension. Any
    erotic behavior employed by man is also used by bonobos.

    Why is the bonobo considered man's closest living relative?
    More than 98% of bonobo DNA is like that of human's and it is a
    fraction of a percent closer to human DNA than that of the
    common chimpanzee. Man is the closest living relative to both the
    bonobo and the chimpanzee. In other words, the bonobo and the
    chimp are closer to humans than they are to gorillas.

    How are bonobos different from chimpanzees?
    Chimps resolve sex issues with power; bonobos resolve power
    issues with sex. Bonobos believe in "make love, not war." Chimps
    are known for making war. Physically, bonobos are smaller,
    darker, hairier around the face, and more erect than chimps.

    How intelligent are bonobos?
    Without going into a lot of detail defining intelligence in ape
    terms, suffice it to say that bonobos are very intelligent. Observe
    their tool use and their ability to organize intricate social
    relationships. Scientific studies also reveal that bonobos have a
    sense of self (they recognize themselves in a mirror). Only apes
    have shown this ability.

    What is the difference between apes and monkeys?
    Monkeys have tails and apes do not.

    Note: one monkey, the barbary macaque, does not have a tail.

    It should also be noted that gays aren't "created" in the sense that god tailor-made them, but rather it's more or less a part of their genetics, which happened (mostly) by chance.

    God didn't make them, genetics did. Sorry.

    Because it would break my heart to really believe that you are truly this stupid, arrogant, and cruel. Call it a weakness of mine.
    The point is that I wouldn't worry about the Scriptures if they weren't held up by some as justification for proposed injustice. Furthermore, it seems to me that someone recently asked about homosexuality in terms of churches and religions and what to tell children. In other words, it seems to me that someone made the Scriptures important to this debate.
    If that's what you think, you're welcome to it. But how is it that you can ask these questions, get answers, and take them so personally? The sins of other Christians are vital considerations to the answers to your questions. What you choose to make of that information is entirely up to you.

    In the meantime, it seems quite important to continue to communicate the point. Once people stop seeing homosexuality as something so different that it needs moral explanation, we'll all be better off. In other words, my reasons for taking part in this discussion transcend this mere topic.

    thanx,
    Tiassa

    Well, technically, yes. But it was another of those things I was trying not to say anything about. Myself, I wouldn't care how much space she wastes quoting if she just had something to say. I wish I could say that it was rare that I encountered this behavior pattern, but I'm very familiar with it in terms of the Bible and its adherents.

    Someday I will figure out how to deal with it.

    thanx,
    Tiassa
