Headline: "Liberal F-ggot snobs Bash Bush"

[FormerACLUmember]

This is a bogus propaganda piece from the "Queer Mafia" (their term, not mine). It is a complete lie.

[muawiyah]

Lots of these anthropologists come up with these stories to justify themselves to the young women they are hitting on every time they get out in the bush working on a grant!

Guess that makes them experts on what the President ought to say. Seems like we just got rid of a President who spent all his time thinkin like an anthropoligist on a field trip.

Segal pointed to "sanctified same-sex unions in the fourth century in Christianity" and to the Greeks and Romans applying the concept of marriage to same-sex couples, not to mention the Native American berdache tradition in which males married males.

Christianity NEVER sanctified homosexual unions. To imply that "blood-brother" relationships were sexual in nature is dishonest. The Greeks and the Romans were accepting of homosexuality, but NEVER considered marriage as other than heterosexual. The Native Americans were not part of Western Civilization.

So much for these "scientists".

Maybe one of these pink doctors should run for office.

Nader, who is an association member, said Bush's proposal "serves the views of the religious right, and that has to do with getting votes."

As opposed to appeasing members of the secular and immoral Left who won't vote for him regardless?

Oh yeah, If someone from Berkeley says it's so, then it must be true.

LOL! Tell the anthropologist that they wouldn't be anthropologist if the species couldn't procreate.

LOL.

"Fabrication" is just not laudry detergent cleansing process.

And as everyone knows, scientists are never wrong.
RIGHT!!(sarcasm)

gal pointed to "sanctified same-sex unions in the fourth century in Christianity" and to the Greeks and Romans applying the concept of marriage to same-sex couples, not to mention the Native American berdache tradition in which males married males.

Neither the Greeks nor the Romans applied the "concept of marriage to same-sex couples." And what heterodox proto-Christian, most likely grrr-nostic sect "sanctified same-sex unions?" And who ever heard of the Native American "berdache tradition?" Were these unions the norm? Or simply normal? Or what?

This academic rube is reaching, and his or her reach exceeds his or her grasp.

If any of this daydream were true, it would have been blasted on headlines thirty years ago. Nice try, you fagging twits, but no sale here.

[claudiustg]

Right! There's evidence in literature for marrying you mother and in history for marrying your sister, but it's still not a good idea to model your life after Oedipus or Caligula.

[eeriegeno]

What a bunch of goof-balls!

[squarebarb]

Well, another professional organization down the drain.

Along with the APA, and ALA, and ....

Is there anything they haven't invaded? The Jackson Mississippi Police Association, maybe?

"Rather, anthropological research supports the conclusion that a vast array of family types, including families built upon same-sex partnerships, can contribute to stable and humane societies,"

Wonder why he doesn't mention any? The Greeks and Romans, both collapsed civilizations, are hardly good examples, and certainly not ones that would be considered 'stable and humane' by todays standards at all.

A Kucinich supporter... Well that fact certainly isn't relevant to the article LOL!

"The statement was proposed by Dan Segal, a professor of anthropology and history from Pitzer College in Claremont (Los Angeles County)"

Impressive academic credentials.
