Okay, I'll bite. In what morally relevant way is a man ass-fucking a cow different from two men ass-fucking each other?



It's nearly impossible to give a cow a reach-around?

I never have a good thing to say about Catfish, or his posts, but I did get the meaning behind this one.

He was not equating having anal sex with a cows to homosexual sex.

He was pointing out how flawed the questions of the OP were.

OK, I'm sure Catfish will post something horribly fallacious and logically invalid soon, so I can return to my usual disdain for his posts. Devil

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

The same day you started using Ad hominem and other logical fallacies.
And yes I admit to using a loaded question (I was rushed), would you like me to rephrase it so that is it not?

You already addressed your "rushed" claim and still kept the loaded question...

If you think you can rephrase it so that it's not loaded, I wouldn't mind seeing the attempt.

Challenge accepted
so hers my rephrased questions:

1.Are religions against LGBT people in there scripters? And if so Why?
2. Assuming that Regions are by there very nature against LGBT people, Would you still be against LGBT people if the Religion was not?

Happy now Catfish?

RE: Religion and LGBT people
Then try this:
1. Are religions for or against LGBT people in their scriptures? And Why?
2. Would you be for or against LGBT people if religious scriptures were the oppersite?
Happy now?
