jakee 1,489 #101 October 24, 2009 QuoteContext laddie, context. I've read all that you've posted. I have all your context. my points are all valid. Deal with them. QuoteStop taking points addressed to others and using it for your own counter arguments. No. I'll take issue with anything that you post which I think is wrong. QuoteBut of course, why are you wrong!! Exactly. Why am I wrong? Nothing you've so far said has done anything to show that I am. QuoteWho said you're wrong?? You did. "In the sense you're putting it into you're not wrong. But your sense is wrong..." QuoteYou're always going off on tangents No, I'm not. I'm directly addressing everything you say. Any tangents are of your own making. QuoteYou're critical of my Afghan example - as I am - but missed the context entirely. No, I got it. It's still an incredibly poor argument. QuoteYou're arguing against un-natural acts' saying: so what? Exactly. Because it cuts to the core of your entire argument. So what if something's 'unnatural'? Why should we care? Why would that make something wrong?Do you want to have an ideagasm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vortexring 0 #102 October 24, 2009 Quote Some people may decide to debate animals have no concept of morals. In that case, I would rephrase, as: Quote Mother nature has a lot of things happen out there in the wild, that humans would consider immoral. But of course, people debate what of that is 'immoral' A specific person or group (religion) might consider immoral to include same sex activity which obviously happen out in mother nature. Another person or group (religion) may consider one animal unnecessarily killing another in a fight, to be immoral. Or both is. Or neither is. That's why I say there's debate of what 'immoral' means, in this context... This topic doesn't have much to do with what's immoral to be fair. If the black swans, as discussed earlier, don't mate to produce offspring, there's no more black swans. Such a key fundemental part of a species can't go unrecognised. Say for example scientists observed black swans were no longer mating as male and female - what would they say, to describe this, in simple language? They'd say: Somethings fucking wrong with the black swans . . . 'for it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "chuck 'im out, the brute!" But it's "saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot.'

vortexring 0 #104 October 25, 2009 QuoteQuoteI'm not saying it's not natural; it's just wrong. Do you argue for peadophiles? Some people are naturally attracted to children - should we allow adults to marry children? The difference between pedophiles and gay people is that gay adults are in a consensual relationship. Pedophiles harm children. You cannot compare the two. As the man said in his speech, that there should not be any reason that two consenting adults shouldn't have the right to marry. And further more, homosexual experiences are the common, not uncommon. And, many adolescents have experienced a homosexual encounter. Even my own mother, who is straight as an arrow, kissed another girl when she was 12. She recalls "practicing" for when she would have her first kiss with a boy. This is an excellent article of what I am talking about. http://www.pixelconsumpton.com/infant-and-child-sexuality/some-homosexual-encounters.html Your mother practiced kissing with girls and she's as straight as an arrow? Fuck my old boots, what are you using for arrows? Bananas? You cannot describe some differences between my examples, and tell me I can't compare the two, without addressing the points I did make. Otherwise it becomes a bit of a gangfuck of a debate. Further to that - please go back and read what I've written. Did I ever say homosexual acts were unnatural?

vortexring 0 #113 October 25, 2009 Perhaps an aspect of this discussion worth bringing to the fore is peoples perception of marriage. To me, it's the permanent binding of a male and female to be forever faithful to their partner. Now if they're gay, how can a species survive? So should we tolerate a minority of gay marriages within our society? To what purpose? to appease them? To demonstrate our modern tolerance to gay social members? After all that's been accepted, what's next? There will certainly be a next - and I'd be forthright enough to say you'd be foolish to think differently. It can be argued religion has nothing to do with this. But why tolerate an abnormality and make it normal? 'for it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "chuck 'im out, the brute!"
