No you make your beliefs quite clear without it

Considering you just compared homosexuality to rape, pedophilia and murder ......Yeah he's the one who sounds stupid

Right - which is Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham, headed by al-Jolani. Yup but again in their current role as the Syrian government

How about just shut the fuck up completely? Remember he's a victim

Oh I think we have some posts from you that are unequivocally racially biased, your name doesn't feature. Your claim that it's ok for poor people in slums to die from gun violence for example, and the objective evidence of the demographics of who lives in slums. Is it possible you still don't realise when you're making racist epithets?

Nonsense. Nature is full of oddities and one-offs, and they are just as natural as the standard models.

... mainly because wat you tried to pass off as cogent argument was shown to be fatally flawed. That you believe in bullshit is no argument that your bullshit isn't, well, bullshit.
You're digging another hole here. The only reason you think homosexuality is unnatural is because homosexuals don't share the majority sexuality. You were born with an abnormally low number of neurons. Are you unnatural?

That a small percentage of humans behave in an unnatural behavior does not make it "natural" in any moral or practical sense; there would be many crimes that would be "normal" (happen often) that we still would not consider normal. I don't think unnatural means what you think it means, but homosexuality occurs throughout nature, thus by definition it is "natural". Parenthetically posting on an internet forum is demonstrably unnatural, and yet you seem fine with that behaviour, go figure.
Quote:Then, too, you're entirely ignoring the fact that you, who claim that your god created everything, must accept that he created homosexuals too. Is any part of your god's creation "unnatural"? How is it your "perfect" god should create these damnable souls? Were they a surprise?

It's a fact that some people believe the world is flat, though of course it is also a fact that the world is not flat. And being gay is not a choice people make, that's just homophobic bigotry, that bigotry however is a choice people make, as is the adherence to a religion.

That isn't why we went to war in the middle east. We went to war in the middle east to show our power, not check anyone else's. Neither group caused us much trouble even at their height compared to the domestic terrorists that have always been with us and remain so today. The ones that captured a weak republican party and have you here playing woke olympics.
I largely agree with the rest of that post though - I also think that there are groups of people who have demonstrated that they are not our friends and cannot be trusted. Magats, for example.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

The real irony of course, is the false equivalence that equates natural with good, and unnatural with bad, after all there is absolutely nothing natural about Christianity, it is entirely manmade...as are computers, and the internet, and he seems fine using those.
