lol, so, homosexuality is made up, but aliens on Earth actually exist and knowledge of them is being suppressed, right?

/insanity

I really can't decide whether he's a wind-er-upper or seriously delusional. My bullshit detector reading is stuck on inconclusive, is there anyone here with a more sensitive meter?

From my reading of lots of threads here, I think you'll find that most of us do not think that homosexuals should be discriminated against, whether homosexual practices are to our individual tastes or predilictions, or not.

However - there's not a lot of point discussing things if everyone agrees with each other.

ETA when I say that most of us don't (IMO) believe in UFOs, I mean of course that we don't (as a borad generality) believe in UFOs being alien starships or similar things. That there are things (or aparitions, clouds, meteors, planets...) which people see in the sky and that they fail to identify is another matter - in that sense there are lots of UFOs.

Well.....

The point of discussion is not to convert people into believing, but to radicate one's point of view. A wheel within a wheel or a flying saucer......

What is the difference?

As for homosexualty, I believe that it is wrong. That it goes against God's devine plan for the survival of the human race. I also believe that God has introduced measures to cul the spread of homosexuality. Whether that makes me a bad person for believing in the survival of the human race, it is hardly the point.

Yet when we use this ingredient to sustain our own hypochritical stance, religion 'flies out the window'.

Instead, those of hetrosexual belief are eager to rant and complain about those, who have as much right NOT to believe, as those who support homosexuality etc. It makes it more confusing that those who support spiritual matters, should be eager to denounce those of clean living who oppose any derogatory infringement of God's plan. That man and woman should harmonise in the way that God intended.

Instead we should be made blind to the ailments that inflict the Third World and keep our mouths shut.

Why should a person be booted off a forum because he believes that two people of the same sex should not be making love ?

That is MY POINT.

Did I not post my sixth sense premenition by placing my hand on my computer screen ?

Already we are talking about rules and regulations. When all I talk about is what I believe.

Is not my comments fair and understanding. As people....do we not also have rules to be treated as individual minds, allowing to speak our thoughts in the way that God intended?

You don't need to deny belief it it, it really happens, and it's quite enjoyable. If you do not believe in the practice of homosexuality, just go to www.google.com and search for "gay porn." You will be pleasantly surprised to see that homosexuality is real!

Sadism is also enjoyable, but we are discussing the rights and wrong. Not whether we enjoy it.

There is also a lot of affliction, hate and evil in the world. The stance is knowing the difference of what we ARE doing and what we should not be doing. It als o happens.

No, see,

telekinesis "is the proposed paranormal ability of the mind to influence matter or energy without the use of any currently known type of physical means," so, you know, if you believe in it, you're supposed to pull my finger. Actually, you're supposed to raise my hand, but, you know, the fart joke makes it funnier.

The "rights and wrongs" of things are topics that belong in IIDB's Moral Foundations & Principles forum.

You never said "right or wrong," you said "I do not believe in," and I suggested a means by which you could find ample proof.

Well your meter is obviously faulty.......

As you have calibrated it on yourself.

Perhaps if you take an opposite reading, it may give you the correct answer.
