Actually, my answers were not meant to be taken seriously. I was actually trying to have a bit of fun with the subject but it seems you take this way too seriously. I'm sorry if you didn't enjoy my joking responses, but there's no need to mention my rectal tract, unless of course you are a doctor of proctology.
Methinks thou needs to get a sense of humor and stop taking what you read on the internet so literally.
Listen, I can take a joke as well as anyone. I found this particular comment disgustingly offensive, because of the negative stereotyping involved.
( a ) I was born in Mexico,
( b ) In my extensive experience all over that Country, I never perceived bestiality to be ignored, let alone tolerated or encouraged.
( c ) The odds are that there are at least as many bestiality enthusiasts in the U.S. as there are in Mexico (remember, Mexico has about a third of the population of the U.S., and it is also a more socially conservative Country), and
( d ) It shocked me, because I had assumed that participants in an Atheist forum would be among the least likely to harbor these kinds of xenophobic attitudes. How would you feel if somebody in this forum made a joke about "how greedy Jews are", or "how lazy are the Blacks" ? Are those also permissible "jokes"?
Perhaps I shouldn't have lashed out quite that hard, but surely you can see my point.
