It is not natural for children to be brought up by two males.

18 children in 15 months....The social workers were throwing children at these fiends like candy.

Manalitwist:

Sounds like you've been a victim of brainwashing, yourself. You have a good point in that the situation with "political correctness" is unacceptable - gay, straight, black, white, disabled, female, whatever; A pedophile is a pedophile and a criminal is a criminal. While it's important that a group of individuals not be discriminated against, it's equally, if not more, important that they not become "untouchable" by nature of their social status.

What the social workers did in this case is abhorrent, and the children have paid the price. NT society is so concerned with image over truth that there's a constant back-and-forth dance that they do - swinging back and forth between callous and neglectful, and paranoid and phobic. Social work is one of the areas in which this dance is most obvious - reports of evident abuse ignored until a child is finally brutalized to death, and then several years of almost panicked overreaction and reporting every little bruise to the authorities. The sad part is that the overreaction is usually not motivated by actual concern for the child's wellbeing but rather a desire to "cover one's ass" so to speak.

So kudos for recognizing a screwed up situation, but 15 demerits for being unable to recognize that situation without vomiting up spoon-fed propaganda. Adding "absolutely" or "definitely" does not make your gross generalizations any more valid. If you can't back your judgments and opinions up with facts, as you clearly can't, make sure you at least recognize your own close-minded indoctrination for what it truly is: the "brainwashing" that hateful people love to accuse others of. Every time I hear a glassy-eyed conformist griping about the "liberal brainwashing" of the media (or schools, or whatever group they decided not to like today), I can't help but be reminded of the young school child, letting loose an enormous fart and then pointing to the boy next to them and going, "He did it!"

Most of the reason that homosexuals seem "promiscuous" to the uneducated is that, A) BECAUSE of stereotypes like that they are unable to marry, act as a devoted monogomous couple without fear of brutality and even murder, and are thus forced to rely on whatever fleeting comfort they can get from one another; and B) BECAUSE of the persecution they face, it's very hard to find one who isn't depressed, anxious, pessimistic, and even self-destructive. I mean, come on. They face being treated as lepers, or used as the easy target of misplaced aggression.

You force-feed any vulnerable child or adolescent with the idea that they're terrible deviant whorish sinning scum, and that child's probably gonna grow up with some issues. The darkly humorous fact is that so many of the behaviors people label these children with are actually a result of that same labelling.

So congratulations - you are simultaneously the victim of brainwashing, you help keep the cycle going! Way to be part of the problem.

Homosexuals are less likely to be pedophiles and child molesters. But in our society, it's okay for an older man to like young girls - it's unacceptable! but at least it's not (gasp) deviant - but when an older man likes young boys, then suddenly it's depraved as well as unacceptable.

Homosexuals are not predisposed to promiscuity; they are conditioned into it. Homosexuality is not "unnatural"; it's displayed to some degree in most species, and has been a documented part of human history since... well, since history became documented.

I can go get facts, stats, and numbers if you'd like - nice, juicy, validating evidence.

...and yet, when I offer such evidence to people such as yourself, I am usually accused of "peddling liberal media propaganda" or some crap. There's always some nice little excuse to explain away facts you find uncomfortable, isn't there?

But... at least, while your logic is nonexistant and you present your opinion as fact... you do so with less vulgarity than the previous poster.

One last thought: do a search cross-referrencing the "depravation" and other negative traits you are so quick to throw at homosexuals, and other hate group victims. Black people, women, Jewish people, Mexicans, etc... because all the things that you accuse and persecute one group with were once used against another. The only thing that changes is which group you choose to hate. Think about it.

Just to play devils advocate I once heard a theory in a sociology class (theory mind you) that some of the possibly mildly higher than normal promiscuity percieved in homosexual men is simply because men are more likely to desire to be promiscuous as a group and then they meet up with people who share their thoughts at times. Kind of an everyone wins situation, I'm not at all saying its a bad thing personally if that theory happens to be true.

Also while your digging up facts you might look for the ones about how gay parents not only show no record (and its been studied so no one say its cause there isnt one) of their children haveing any more problems than the children of straight parents.
In fact the one noticeable difference was that their kids were LESS likely to grow up gay, so logically even bygoted jerks should want homosexuals to be aloud to raise children as there will end up being less gay people in the future.
So people that are cool with the rest of humanity get to know their fellow humans get the same rights they are entitled to and the hatemongering jerks out there or simply the ignorant can harbor hopes of "Breeding THEM out of existence".
Its kind of a win-win situation, even if some of the motives are abit less than palatable to the other partys.

While we're at it, lets address gay marriage. Since the argument against them raising kids part of it is axed, lets go to the next thing. That famous passage in Romans the religeous crowd likes to hem and haw about, well I've had several bible scholars tell me that that is in fact refering to the male prostitute/priests (think babylonian kinda) people would have sex with for forgiveness, so it was kind of about idolatry not homosexuality.
Still not cool with it? Okay it doesn't have to happen through your religeon necissarily. In fact make it unconected to religeon. People can still have a ceremony with like a family priest or something if they want and they'd know what it was but the legal part, the part that matters in government would be like a civil union kinda thing.
Tell me, who would that hurt? Tell me one person that would end up hurting, what harm would it cause at all? We've already established it doesn't have to violate your oh so gentle 'sensibilities' and it doesn't hurt anyone. So whats your issue?

Excellently presented. :) If homosexuality in ANY way harmed people, it might be a different issue. But it is not a disease; it is not contageous; it does not cause violence; in fact, as far as human behaviors go, it's very innocuous. Gay people can not "turn" straight people into gay people. And an individual's homosexuality only concerns that individual, and their partner.

Behaviors potentially more damaging to your fellow man than homosexuality: Smoking, alcoholism, reckless driving, SAFE DRIVING, cooking a meal containing meat, serving a meal with peanuts in it, plugging too many things into an outlet, exercising, raising your family in a rural home, raising your family in the city, keeping a very clean house, keeping a messy house, and um...

...hopefully I've made my point. If homosexuality disagrees with your religion, fine. DON'T have same sex relationships. The kind of relationships other people choose to have are none of your business. If you believe they are immoral, fine. Considering nothing is at stake other than (in your "mind") their souls, DON'T interfere. The welfare of a man's soul is between that man and the divine - if you bleed when you're cut, take a crap when you eat too much, and DIE when deprived of oxygen, you are *mortal* and have NO authority over another man's soul.

And UnrelentingHorror - good point about the male disposition towards promiscuity.

Quite often in the same publication, with no apparent irony.


Pfff, well duh, it's our friend the media! They use whatever headline/story will keep things "fresh" and interesting to read.

Where to start?

There’s absolutely nothing satirical or sarcastic in what I wrote. Nothing but sincerity in every word. Could I have been more eloquent? Yes, but I’m not going to candy coat this.
Is it too “vulgar”? Tuff!! !

Unfortunately the gay community has and is making tremendous inroads into modern society and nothing I can say, or even do, is going to stem that tide enough to matter.
With that said, if my opinions, solicited or otherwise, offends anyone I don’t care.

Perversion is still perversion. As sexual “diversity” becomes more and more acceptable in society in general so do other more sinister forms of sexual practices such as pedophilia. It slowly goes from being an inexcusable crime to an “illness” to be treated with kindness and drugs. The only treatment I see for pedophiles is with a tree limb and a noose and that’s being kind and humane.

You can throw all the BS statistics and facts at it that you want. People tend to trim and bend so called statistics and facts until the right results are obtained to serve their agenda. They may not be statistics and facts in the true sense of the word but if you repeat them enough and embellish them with big worlds and figures they, in effect, become facts. The actual truth gets washed aside. Where I work we see this often enough to know it all too well.
I and those in opposition to sexual perversion in all its forms are still holding the moral high ground. All the studies and compilations of selective statistics that you can come up with can’t trump that. Call that arrogance if you want.

Call me an uneducated redneck if you want as well. If your knowledge of homosexuality is what passes for being educated I’d rather be uneducated. If being a redneck means having values opposite to yours I’d much rather be a redneck. Being called an uneducated redneck by you would be a treasured compliment so thanks in advance!

It should be plainly obvious by now that I’m not a part of your community and you’re definitely not a part of mine. I could care less whether that’s “K” with you or not.
Sexual perversion and its vulgar byproducts are still not “K” with me.

This applies to all of you whose minds are poisoned.

My position on this subject hasn’t softened one bit since I wrote what I wrote on the 9th. As long as I hold a shred of decency in me it never will change. Don’t hold your breath waiting for what’s not going to happen.

As far as I’m concerned this is a closed topic. You all can play with it all you want if that’s all you have to do with your time but I’m moving on.

I have to agree, no amount of mental gymnastics can alter the fact that homosexuality is perverse.

...you're right. I take it back; you are not an uneducated redneck. You're an educated idiot - that's the most dangerous kind. That means that you have the mental facilities to understand basic concepts like "completely without evidence" and "based entirely upon what all the nice, hate-mongering old men told me so that I could pound another kid's face into the dirt in order to vent my anger at the fact that [insert pathetic egocentric whining, etc.]..."

And yet, you willingly choose not to understand these concepts, because it's easier to judge people as perverts, deviants, or whatever than to face the simple fact that you're an incomplete, unhappy excuse for a human being. There's a reason that hatred and so-called moral indignation occur primarily during tough times - it's an easy, socially acceptable way to treat your depression and rage. It's the panacea of the weak-minded.

Let me peel away the "filler" you attempt to use to make your posts more palatable: "I'm proud to be stupid. What I say is right because I say so. My opinions matter more than empirical evidence. I am completely incapable of responding to any flaws in my logic with actual arguments supporting my position. And now that I've told you all that I'm right and you're wrong, I'm going to stick my fingers in my ears and go NANANANANA NOT LISTENING NANANANANA I CAN'T HEAR YOU NOT LISTENING NANANANA..."

So. With that out of the way, if anyone would like to have an intelligent discourse, I'm completely approachable and friendly. Just please present opinions as opinions, and facts as facts, no matter what those opinions may be. Anything else is best saved for rants into your hairbrush while you look at yourself naked in the mirror.

Well said Eialune.
I've found that in general people tend to repeat themselves in arguments. Most arguments I see involve two people who are set in their beliefs and will not really listen to the other side.

Wait a sec.... so Raptor let me get this straight.

Your saying that the ways we measure data and by that matter fact don't matter and all is relative?
So based on that no single stance on something can be more than an opinion in your line of thinking.... But somehow we are to accept your opinion as superior or more moral or whatever in a world where there are no true facts, and we are to do this because.... why?

You give nothing but a self-defeating way of thought and whats more it seems like its only there as a way of backtracking so you don't have to have intelligent discourse or actually defend your views in a mature and intellectual manner.
I'm not so much much offended by your views but by your blatant choice of unabashed ignorant idiocy that you just flaunt.

And no manalitwist, I do not see these as mental gymnastics, in fact we were all kind of haveing a direct A to B correlation line of thinking. Hey logic, remember that?

Then you go on with this whole BS holier than thou spiel about some sort of "moral high ground" you hold above so called "perversity" again without giving any reasons why your claims are true, no reasons at all intelligently formed or otherwise.
To me you might as well just be spouting off nonsense like "The Sky is Green and purple poka dot!", they both seem born of a morons mind.

Have you heard the way homosexuals talk? I dont mean the really affected pantomime style but the slightly nasal lilting tone they have, well that is due to the fact that their asses have been dilated and no doubt vital Qi energy is FALLING out their back orifice. They are not men.

There is not supposed to be a penis up someones ass.

If another animal liked a (human) man having sexual intercourse with it (homosexual or heterosexual) , say a dog perhaps then does that make it ok because it is consenting?
