Arguing on the net is like poking jelly with a stick.

But, that aside, the interesting thing for me is that I do say stuff that I'd never say in real life, and vice-versa (mainly due to filtering)  So are people extremists? No, not really, but I think they express the far ends of their opinion to make the point as strongly as possible.

Oh, indeed, because people are 'hidden' behind nicknames, myself included, you end up seeing, I think, more of the persons 'True' feelings about things. :)

So?

Pretty much everything has been said:

Some people are tolerant of gays, some are not - the end.

I can consider a response all day long if you like, but I have better, or at least, more interesting things to do....









OK.... in an effort to un-derail the thread, who is your favourite gay comedian, and why? :nervous:

Maybe i should have used 'treating them inhumanely'; that would be more appropriate with regards to previous statements.


//////// Since when is not being normal = don't treat them with respect? That's YOUR view, not mine.
Basic freedoms for gays? Yes. They are free to do whatever they want as long as they do in in their own house (well, except for adopting children. I'm strongly against it)

Hey, I'm sorry if I get pissed off, but if you can insult peoples integrity and opinion ala below, I don't see why I can't make similar broad generalisations.


When have I insulted anyone? If you have a cold and say "You're sick", I am insulting you? Granted, there may be gays who would feel insulted by such a description, but they cannot prove to me that it's not a sickness...

Quote

You may notice I never used the words 'conservative' or 'religious fanatic', though - these are the connotations you made, not me.

Then I answed in the wrong post. Someone else said that. My mistake.

Quote

All I referred to was preffering to be a person willing to think independently and be tolerant, rather than swallow and espouse everything I'm told without consideration of the facts.   Because your definition of 'normal' appears to be anyone who conforms to the narrow spectrum defined by your world-view & opinions.

Oh, I am tolerant nad I do consider the facts. Jsut what do you know of my definition of normal. and just to what normal are you refering to? What should be normal? Currently normal? Or normal in the western world?

Quote

Y'know, that's so dismissive of basic scientific research and process that I don't think I even need to counter.   I mean, your making a case by bad-mouthing multiple scientists who have had research published and subjected to peer scrutiny?  By that same context you could validate the flat-earth theory and decide gravity doesn't exists.  It's there, it exists, it's well documented - get over it.


No grvity is there.

Altzheimers is a disease whose symptoms are the deterioration of brain tissue.  Homosexuality in now way fits into the definition of a disease - it does not impair the function of the body or bodily systems in any way.  

The only possible way you could even claim it to be is by placing the fuctions of the human body as defined within a social context.  By that context, you are just as diseased as any homosexual, simply because you are doubtless socially different.  By the same criteria, you could justify racism, sectarianism as being curative of 'disease' - the disease of being different.

Load of crap. No ofense. Not that I feel the need to justify or defend my views anyway....

Quote

Don't even try to claim you have the moral high ground here, because anyone with a modicum of sense and tolerance can see you're making a completely unsustainable statement.

Really? I haven't noticed that... Not that I said anything that's morally wrong anyway...

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

You;ve just contradicted yourself there.  Basic freedoms include congregation; not a pseudo house arrest.  Maybe you should look at the UN declaration of human rights

Article 9 can be said to apply to this (albiet to an abstract degree), Article 12 can also be applied, Article 16 can also be applied (note that this does not define marriage as between a man and a woman), the 'public' part of Article 18 also applies.

not forgetting the very first article, of course.

you may also care to note that the UN secretary general supports homosexual marriage on the basis of this document; http://www.lifesite.net/ldn/2003/aug/03080501.html

I believe Brazil has also tabled a proposed amendment to cover the non-specific covering of homosexuality in this declaration; specifically to ensure equal and fair treatment; unfortunately this was withdrawn under pressure from Catholic and Muslim countries.  you could say this in itself contravenes the UDHR.

You are when I'm not ill.  

Sick has a very clear meaning - " not in good physical or mental health" - this implies that homosexuals are in some way mentally or physically deficiant, which is completely wrong.

Simply, you cannot prove it is a sickness, and certainly not by any medical manner.  And if you can't prove it in a medical fashion, how can you possibly decry it using a medical term?

Conformist normal.  You have said you do not believe homosexuals are normal.  As there is no medical or rational basis for this, all I can conclude is that this definition of normal is based on your personal biases.

My personal opinion is that the only definition of 'normal' that is required is 'human being'.

So now the observations of scientists are valid?  Animal homosexuality is there, too, in case you didn't actually read the various links / text pointed out.  Studied and observed and currently under research to determine the causes.

What, so Altzheimers is not a disease?  Or if that's not what you mean, then define how homosexuality can be defined as a disease when it fits none of the biological criteria?

You're the one preaching 'reeducation' for a social group, not me.  I would say that forcing your beliefs upon a social group, by either imposing restrictions upon their basic human rights or advocating the somewhat sinister concept of 'reeducation' is completely morally wrong.  If you replace homosexual with 'black', or 'muslim', or 'liberal', or 'conservative' - or indeed any of the common denominators we use - it's blatantly wrong.

BAH... I actually considered writing a long and detail reply to this, but I see there is no point, since my words are being stretched beyond comprehension.


So, one FINAL and VERY LAST time, to clarify things:

@aldo_14

House arrest? Did I say that? Nope.
Like I said, I don't hate gays.
I specificly said that they should have normal human rights.
The only thing that bugs me is their constant need for exposure - gay parades and constant talks of their rights. I don't see hetero paredes around.
It's kinda like that Tweetie cartoon - small and cute, but it goes on your nerves (actually, 90% of the people I know would like to see a episode or two where the bird gets it allready!)


And like I said - there are scientist who claim to have found the gay gene. They say it's a product of that faulty gene - thus, an anomaly.

My definition of normal is how a avarage man should be (relisticly..not aiming for perfection).


About animal homosexuality - by gay animals I mean REALLY gay animals. In other words, those who really do it. I've seen no proof of actual penetration nowhere, so as far as I'm concerned that's not really gay...

OK...that's enough for today and tomorow and the day after tht... This thread is plummeting fast, and I'm bailing out before it hits ground...

ok, so becase it isn't 'normal' it's a deseise, and therefore they need to be 're-educated' or corected or something.

well then would a 'normal' person be able to make this or what about one of these, if any normal person could, then the topics about them probly wouldn't have gone off to be 3 pages long without me even getting done with them. so I guess that means that I am not 'normal' and that I need to have what ever anomoly that alows me to do this removed. or corected  this is the sort of thing you are perscribeing.

Possibly you should consider a clear and concise phrasing, then.  Make it exactly clear what your mindset it - switching from 'don't hate, but don't want to see either' to 'they're sick' to 'reeducation is required' to 'genetic anomoly' over a thread can be very confusing.

You'll note I said 'pseudo' house arrest.  you can interpret this as the 'arrest' of personality - In many respects, being denied the right to express a key facet of yourself is worse than physical arrest.

Heterosexuals aren't subject to a constant constant barrage of phobic behaviour, there's no need for a 'counter-culture', or a need to express themselves openly.  For 360-odd days of a year, many homosexuals will be 'forced' (by the general biases and preconceptions of society) to keep their sexual orientation behind bars; it's understandable that some feel the need to have a day when they can feel 'free' in this.

and, of course, you're ignoring the likes of mardi gras, where heterosexual sex is very much on the agenda.  It's just that you don't see that as being 'promotion' because you accept that orientation and not the other.

As for rights...well, it's self evident; homosexuals are discriminated against both by society and by law.  In the latter case, due to a result of both entrenched attitudes and a lack of sexual openness when they were formed (with respect to pre 80s or so laws in particular).  However, you've shown - IMO - that you don't believe in the concept of 'fairness' towards homosexuals (demanding changes to their behaviour, etc, which would not be applied to heterosexuals), so how could you honestly decide whether or not they are right to complain about inequality?

Who says it is a 'faulty' gene? Because the same standards could mean that having red hair is down to an 'anomaly' and faulty gene.

And I presume the definition of 'average' is the one you make?  And what about the average female?  Or are we ignoring that one?

What about female bonobo monkeys who rub their genitals apart each other until orgasm (for example) - or do you not count lesbians as homosexual? (what were you expecting, vibrators?).

Also, you're showing a fairly narrow mindset of the definition of homosexuality, as it being simply intercourse.  It is evidently not; it encompasses the ability and desire to form a lasting, 'loving' relationship with  a member of the same sex.  

You can also derive that homosexual sex is for pleasure - as evidenced by the bonobo monkey example in particular (inlcuding males), this does not require penetration.

And you do realise 'no proof of penetration nowhere' is a double negative, yeah?

ok, I didn't want to have to do this, but I have been left no other choice.

here is a animated gif of two male Bonabos doing it
http://www.blockbonobofoundation.org/fuc[b][/b]k2.gif
oh god damn the filter sucks
they are in a zoo and it is known that hey are male


here is a pic of one male Bonabo going down on another


not sure exactly what sort of act is being performed here, but it involves the ass and the one on top sure does seem to be enjoying it


and finaly we have a few females rubbing there bits together


as you may imagin, finding scientific photos of "gay animal sex" useing google tends to have a rather high... 'signal to noise ratio' and I am not going to go through any more of it. you have your proof, gay monkey sex. enjoy.
