eunuchs: Its actually not thier fault.


Same with homosexuals

Hatim would disagree with you and would like to throw the homosexuals off of a cliff.

I'm quite sure Hatim doesn't personally know any homosexuals.

That's because they were all apparently thrown off of a cliff or driven away because they had mutated children.

it is...no one is born homo


No one is born hetero either. Ask one of your gay friends when they chose to become gay; oh wait, you don't have any. Whether nature or nurture is primarily responsible for ones sexual orientation is irrelevent, because it is never a conscious decision.

It is a decision. It mightve happen as a result of other ills in american society. Here, there are no gays. Being gay is shameful here, not something to be proud of like there.

Sure, your society being hateful against homosexuals and many apparently wanting to throw them off of cliffs means that there are no homosexuals...or is it that they're not open about it?

There are gays in every culture in every age that has ever been. Only the attitudes toward gays vary between cultures. Humanity is evolving culturally now far far faster than genetically and the recognition and acceptance of gays will happen over time. Humans are too intelligent to forever accept the absurd attitudes based on the ignorance of the past. Homosexuality is a recurrent fact of human life. Why hate what happens inevitably. Only bigotry keeps hate alive, the stupid belief in the bigotry of past bigots who wrote rules they felt made sense based at the time on their total scientific ignorance.

The beginnings of a strawman. I'm through with you, redneck.

He's from Pakistan and apparently still lives there. Let me introduce you to some of Hatim's quotes.

"The punnishment for being gay is throwind the criminals over a cliff, and throwing a rock over them. I know thats harsh, but gaydom the biggest cause of diseases. "

Oh, how humane.

"(on execution of aethists) about that Atheist bit. Some clarification. This applies to Prisoners of war after they refuse invitation to Islam."

Oh, thanks for giving them an option!

"The west is pathetic for allowing gaydom and lesbaindom.....Soon theywill see the ill effects. Not too long before a western "society" will cease to exist. Ther are just like animals. Having sex with the same sex and even animals. They will grow mutated kids or something if they continue doing this. just SICK. Worst than animals. they people call themselves free people. But eventually all of them are going to end up in a destroyed land. AIDS, thats a quality of hmosexualness, even multiple illegal sex with whores. Man they dont even marry. All whores and Pimps. They depend on each other only for sex and money. Thats the only thing that they care about anyways. whats a family for. (except a few remaing) Its all about fun. Sex, food, sleep, and fun. How does that differ them from animals? Open sex, rapes by preists, sex my leaders. What has the USA come to anyways? "

Apparently he thinks that homosexual sex or bestiality will spawn mutants. He must not have much of a biological understanding.

Homosex is

1. Cause of AIDS
2. Other disorders
3. Destroys social ethics
4. Other causes that I don't know
5. Destroys rlationship between man and woman.

Got to love #4.

There are many homosexuals in Pakistan. Sociologists and other professionals write and publish reports about their community. Being gay is generally considered shameful there, but nevertheless there are gays.

They're not gay here either, when they think they will get stoned to death. Except the real brave ones.
What is TBH?

Didn't know he was an islamic fundy, I saw Alabama in his profile, so I assumed he wasn't Osama's right-hand man.
 
Yeeah I would argue that traditional marriage and systems of sexual rules are very much based on money and power, however people like to cloak it in robe of religion.
Ever seen a rich ugly old man marry a poor, pretty young girl?

Robert Trivers wrote a fascinating overview of the interaction between biology and social psych called Social Evolution. It's very readable. Can't find a good review. LINK

racists ...No wonder Americans are hated world over.
 
Leviticus is not a set of rules applicable to modern Christians, nor is it Christian law. It was a code of laws designed for peoples living 3,000 years ago in conditions very different from our modern times.
In the condition of constant warfare and frequent genocide in that time in the Levant, military strength lay almost entirely in population numbers. Failure to reproduce reduced the survival chances of the entire tribe, and thus any sexual action which could not lead to reproduction was seen as criminal.

Yeah, Americans are so racist...that's why the US has such a diverse culture with significant immigration as well!

But yeah...as long as you hate homosexuals, atheists, and want to convert non-Muslims or kill them, yeah, you're not intolerant. All hail the great bastion of tolerance known as Pakistan!

Hypocrite of the Year Nominee, 2004.


All those in favor? (aye!)

nay!

No proof. This rabidmongoose buy is an idiot. I think he has been raised to hate muslims.

Yeah, I hate Muslims because I dislike comments where you say that you want to kill atheists, homosexuals, and want to force convert non-Muslims or kill them. :roll:

No proof? NONE of your posts ever have proof.

While rabid and I come down on opposite sides of a lot of issues, you won't get much support here calling Americans racist. Especially after coming down in favour of differential taxes for muslims and non-muslims. Hypocrite of the year should be reserved for someone special, but I think you've shown some hypocricy by supporting differential taxes and then calling Americans racist and intolerant.
