Religion and LGBT people

[Aractus]

You might notice, if you actually read my words, that I never once said anything about eugenics. In fact, I said miscegenation, which is a term for interracial relationships. Which did have a strong negative response from religious groups. Try responding to what I actually say, next time.

I think you missed my point there.

Let me reiterate it for you. Eugenics was once consensus within science. Now you're going to tell me, but Daniel the Bible says don't marry the disgusting pagan people and have children with them (Old Testament), well true. I'll give you that much, however that was religious and not racial. Any pagan person could convert to Judaism and then marry one of the Jews, nobody cared what race they were. Miscegenation was never consensus within Christianity, but Eugenics was once consensus within science!! See the difference?

So, I would have thought there was a fairly important line to draw between pedophilia and homosexuality, even if there is a genetic component to both; that line is one of harm, and of consent.

No, that isn't what you said. You said that gay people HAVE NO CHOICE to enter into relationships and want to marry. That's what you said, do you want me to point out where you said that?

But in the case of homosexuality, it's genetic and nobody can mount a cogent argument as to the harm it causes, because so long as it's between two (or more!) consenting adults it brings no harm to anyone.

I'm going to call you up on this point. You keep saying "genetic". That's bullshit. Handedness isn't even genetic, and it doesn't need to be to make it real, so stop using the term "genetic" as if there's a fucking gene that controls sexuality when you know full well that there isn't.

I don't know whether or not you're a bigot or hateful, but you definitely hold bigoted views. You're comparing harmless, adult homosexuality to the rape- and it's always rape because children can't consent- of children. That's bigoted, no matter your reasoning for doing so.

You're so full of shit. This is what I said:

I equate the reality of paedophilia as an engrained sexuality alongside heterosexuality

WTF does that have to do with homosexuality??

As I said, if you can stomach it, go read some of their blogs, then come back here and tell me that I equated paedophilia to homosexuality.
