Re: Genetics and Homosexuality: Are People Born Gay?
By definition, it's impossible to murder something that doesn't exist. It's also impossible to murder a "thing". By definition, only people can be murdered. If an unborn human being is not a human being, then what is it? By definition, it's impossible to murder something that doesn't exis...

Re: Genetics and Homosexuality: Are People Born Gay?
You raise an interesting question. Well, my response would be - It's similar to being born with a genetic disease that (one of) your parents passed on to you, you'd have the right to consider it unfair, but that's the way it is. The fact is that we are sinners. Otherwise there wouldn't be evil in t...

Re: Universal Health Care
I think you hit the nail on the head, FL. Too many people looking for a free ride. Health care is a luxury? Really now? The US has state of the art medical technology and very good doctors, but the cost for actually going to a doctor in case you have a medical problem, well, that is a sci-fi story ...

Golf with Moses and Jesus
Moses, Jesus and a poor old man were playing golf. First goes Moses: he hits the ball like a real pro; the ball goes up in the air but falls in the water; Moses goes there, the water splits in half, he hits again and the ball goes very close to the hole. Jesus: Jesus hits the ball like a real pro bu...

Drugs and Juda
Jesus was very worried about the raising rate of drug consumption in the world so he sends some of his 12 disciples to gather a few of the most known drugs. Two days pass by and the disciples start coming back. Jesus was waiting at the gate of Heavens. 1) Knock Knock? Who's there asks Jesus. I'm Pau...

Re: Gay Rights
There are numerous places in the Bible where sex with the same sex is forbidden, a gross perversion, and an abomination to the Creator who made man for woman and vice versa. Read Romans chpt. 1 for instance. When we look at the social consequences of homosexuality today, it is easy to determine tha...

Re: Why do men have more dominance than women?
About three days ago I got into a little argument on why men are much more dominant than their female counter parts. Allow yourself to make a journey through history and you will find many answers to your question. Women have been forced to stay away from many social aspects of life and that is why...

Re: Genetics and Homosexuality: Are People Born Gay?
People make choices, I agree. But they need to learn to make responsible choices, and legal abortion doesn't help them achieve that. It's easier to have reckless, unprotected sex if you know that you'll be allowed to have an abortion with no questions asked. If it was otherwise, people would be enc...

Re: New Shroud of Turin discovery only a few days ago!
The New Testament alone is considered to be 99.5% textually pure. The .5% is pretty much left to copying errors, such as spelling, repeating a word, omitting a letter or word. However, because of the vast number of available copies, (6,000 in Greek and 21,000 in other languages) these errors were e...

Re: Arrogant atheist
Was Constantine wrong to coerce people into Christianity through political means? I would say, yes. Because faith coerced, is not faith at all. But if Constantine was WRONG, by what measure was he wrong? I think you need to understand the abuse of religion versus the tenets of religion. If Constant...

Re: Genetics and Homosexuality: Are People Born Gay?
If objective morality exist, then it has a source First you have to prove that morality is objective. That is a problem since you can't even prove the existence of its source... The reality is that you or can not have a conversation without both relying on (presuming) God. Jlay I already tried that...

Re: Arrogant atheist
@neo-x Any framework of idea can be abused but it does not mean that the origin of something is invalidated because of it. You are actually commiting a reverse genetic fallacy. Constantine, good or bad, proves nothing. It is simply irrelevant. 1) Nikolo Machiavelli : "The end justifies the mean...

Just to put it candidly, you are missing it by a country mile. Please explain. Jlay I'm not here on this forum to piss anyone.

Re: Genetics and Homosexuality: Are People Born Gay?
??? Earlier you were convinced God was immoral but moral at the same time. A contradiction. If you are familiar with Aristotilean logic, then surely you are familiar with the law of non-contradiction. Now, you say you can't prove it. The position of demonstrating God's morality has everything to do...

Re: Genetics and Homosexuality: Are People Born Gay?
@jlay Number 2 has yet to be demonstrated by you. You are conflating creator and cause. Within soveriengnty there is also permissive wil. Please demonstrate how God being creator is immoral. To this point you haven't. I didn't say that God is immoral. I said God is both moral and immoral at the same...
