However, your comment about not hating "gays" is a little hard to take seriously when you use a pejorative to make your point.




I'm sorry, should I have used "queer?" I mean that's what they call themselves isn't it?

Let me suggest that your rantings are better suited to CU.

Let me suggest you at least attempt to deal with the substance of my post rather than resorting to meekly implied name calling.

"Do you seek to identify yourself by your sexual proclivities, especially if those proclivities are historically (in the U.S. and Western Civ generally) considered deviant?" It seems that despite your accusations about my "strawman arguments", you have no problem beginning with one of your own.

You don't know me. Yet you begin your little diatribe with the inference that I must be gay. How nth grade of you. Perhaps you hide your own latency by replacing it with aggression.

I asked "what is normal?" Is Jimmy Swaggart normal? How about Jim Bakker? How about Pat Robertson, the man who says that G-d talks to him.

I don't lump people into "normal" and "abnormal". I prefer to see people for who they are. I dismiss those men who would prance around in showgirl costumes as I would those charlatans that tell me to place my hand over theirs on the TV screen and I will be healed.

And I don't give a rats a** what gay activists say. I make up my own mind about the people I meet and interact with. The echo of an agenda, is simply the empty space in your head where you drummed up the rationale that I somehow spout the homosexual activists agenda. It's idiotic and a figment of your addled imagination.

And as for DU? I lost my posting privileges on day one because I dared to defend Pres Bush and the War on Terror. Oh yeah, and because I said that Dick Cheney is a great man and one of Thea finest VP's this country has seen.

As I said before, you don't know me. So why get personal? I suppose that it's easier to be insulting than to make a rational argument.

Name calling? Reread your post. I responded in kind.

"I would suggest your moral (sic) relative arguments glorifying things homosexual would be better received on DU." Ahem...name-calling?

I dealt with the so-called substance of your argument. You brought nothing new forward, but for the cheapshot. If you're going to be "holier than thou", which I would suggest is not "normal", at least have the good sense not to snipe at someone and then complain that they sniped back. My kids did that in grade school. It's most unbecoming of an adult.

I defy you to list any statement that I made that "glorifies homosexuality".

From your post -post# 26:

I work with a gentleman who is wonderful at his job, delightful to be around, has a Bush '04 sticker on the back window of his car, is reliable and trustworthy and is the finest employee with whom I have ever had the pleasure of working. He's about as "normal" a person as I have ever met.

And he has been with the same partner (male) for the past 31 years.

They go to church every Sunday morning without fail, with their 2 kids, who they adopted ...a boy and a girl, who are "normal", well-adjusted kids who study hard, have excellent grades and our proud as can be of their parents, who they refer to as "Dad" and "Dad".

He thinks that gay marriage is a non-issue, that marriage is between a man and a woman, and that the gay community has no right to expect society to re-define "marriage" to suit them, especially when the leaders of the gay community behave like "neanderthals" (his word).

They did hold a commitment ceremony, which both sets of parents attended and sat with their grandchildren, of whon they are justifiably very proud.

This is a normal, well-adjusted family where the parents just happen to be gay.

As I stated before in reply to your moral relative glorification of homosexuality quoted above:

Any anecdotal 'good' you herald as somehow homosexually good is actually good in spite of the homosexual disorder NOT because of it...

Feel free to address my bolded statement without name calling or cries of bigotry...

The reality IS that homosexuality isn't a psychological disorder. But it sure is a convenient myth for the bigots to use to hang their hat. Next it will be the Jews...

The reality is that you alone dig the hole leading to eventual zotting...

You can continue supporting the homosexualization of society by expounding upon the 'normality' of the homosexual disorder while supplementing your flawed arguments with claims of bigotry and eventually get zotted OR you can cease. The choice is yours...

" you don't want lesbians to be judges? who cares?"

You are asking this on a conservative website?

No, I don't want homosexuals to be judges. If we don't care, then we are lost.

What about in 30 years when it will be ok and "accepted" for 50 year old men to have sex with 10 year old boys?
Will that be ok as well?

Look..if you're going to throw stones, don't complain when people throw stones back at you. Grow up.

The fact that you somehow see this "anecdote" as "glorifying homosexuality" boggles the mind. I took issue with the statement that homosexuals are somehow not "normal" and have a "mental disorder". Hence the anecdote to illustrate the absurdity of labeling someone as not "normal"

However, I understand the thrust of your argument: place me on the defensive by telling me that I said something that I didn't. Then tell me that I would be more at home at DU and when I respond in kind, complain that I "name-called".

Age old Democrat tactic...tell someone that they said something that they didn't say, and force them to debate what they didn't say, because you are unable to debate the real issue, which is the statement that gay people are unable to . Sorry, not playing that game.

Homosexuality is a disorder -it is not normal. As such, heterosexuals suffering the homosexual disorder ("homosexuals") are objectively not normal. I suggest you cease attempting to proclaim otherwise on FR...

Every anecdotal claim you make as normal in regards to homosexuality is actually normal in regards to humanity.

It is true that human beings suffering the homosexual disorder may be normal in any number of ways in spite of not as a result of claiming to suffer the homosexual disorder and or choosing to engage in disordered homosexual activities...

Again -if you find heterosexual reality absurd maybe you should try DU where "orientation" and "gender" are the memes premised in a rainbowed state of mind, almost everything is considered normal, and procreative reality is considered delusional thinking.

LOL

I seem to remember people saying that about Jews...

No need to describe your friends... I already got your number...

Both the homosexuals and the National Socialists are at war with what is written in the book of Genesis.

Before you speak to me about Jews, realize you are talking to a militant Zionist. You really look stupid.

Jews do not cram things up their rears or molest children, nor do they put things in their mouths that are not Kosher (this includes other people's bodily fluids).

Genesis also ruins the illogical and non-biological arguments of homosexual monogamy. In a secular sense, homosexuality is an idolatry of perversion. It is in no way an anatomical function of the human organism, but a phantasmagoric creation from within the mentally disturbed human mind, a social psychosis, naked and on full exhibitionist display.

This is the whole crux of their attack on creationism - - they are really frustrated by Genesis, but cannot destroy the axiomatic state of procreant human biology, it does not fit their religious agenda.

Homosexual monogamy advocates seek ceremonious sanctification of their anatomical perversions and esoteric absolution for their guilt-ridden, impoverished egos.

Neither of those will satisfy their universal dissatisfaction with mortality or connect them to something eternal. With pantheons of fantasies as their medium of infinitization, they still have nothing in them of reality, any more than there is in the things that seem to stand before us in a dream.

Homosexual deviancy is really a pagan practice (and a self-induced social psychosis) at war with the Judaic culture over what is written in the book of Genesis (1:27, 2:18).

This is exactly what the National Socialists were at war with... so, when someone uses the term "Gaystapo," they might not realize how close to the truth they really are.

Many will seek ceremonious sanctification and esoteric absolution in some type of marriage rite, but that still fails to give them a connection to the eternal in both a religious and temporal, procreant sense - - the union does not produce offspring.

Dissatisfaction with inevitable mortality only feeds the impoverishment of the ego further. Homosexuals really hate human life; their whole desire is rooted in the destruction of it...

No go back to your glory hole. I refuse to live in your Hell...

Schwarzenegger is useless as a governor. He should go back to movies. I hope he knows better than to even try to run for President (assuming an Ammendment can be passed). I think the Kennedy's are rubbing off on him in his old age.

Homosexuality is a disorder -it is not normal.

The Dalai Lama even says so... at least he is an honest pagan...

Nice try at a nother strawman ... I asked if you seek to identify yourself by, which doesn't automatically infer any particualr sexual proclivities. But you tried, poorly, but you tried. Straw was once used as insulation, BTW.

"No go back to your glory hole. I refuse to live in your Hell..."

I'm an Orthodox Jew...and a happily married father of two. You completely misinterpreted my comment.

But never mind your assumptions and your jump to an incorrect conclusion, your comment was pure venom. Jews don't talk like that.

Besides....enough of this. There are bigger fish to fry. I will no longer comment on posts to this thread.

I seriously doubt that... you expressed something that is totally in conflict with Mosaic Law...

_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

You completely misinterpreted my comment.

No I did not... It is always the tactic of the leftist to use the Hitlerian analogy in the attempt to shout down the opposition...

THERE IS NOTHING IN COMMON BETWEEN SEXUAL DEVIANTS AND GENESIS.

I reject any Goebbels-like comparative equivalence between Jews and the perverts, it is a demented cheapening and defamation of the sacrifices and struggles of millions of Jews everywhere...

_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

I will no longer comment on posts to this thread.

It would save you a lot of embarrassment...
