Born this way, baby

LOL!
I love when an "atheist" gives a religious perspective. Seriously man, religious people surely don't need your fucked up logic represening their views...

Well, perhaps we wouldn't have to give our guesses on the beliefs of theists if a few theists were willing to answer the difficult questions. Honestly, I'd love to hear what they have to say, but what was said is about what hey usually say.

Ask away.

Some atheists used to be theists. I don't see the problem about them giving their perspective.

Instead of responding, you simply criticized the people who did respond. You can't accuse someone of strawmanning you if you're unwilling to put forth your own opinion.

You're not going to like this, but define "normal" because by my understanding of the term, homosexuality doesn't come close to fitting the definition...

b : difficult to comprehend : not clear or precise in thought or expression

Well, yeah, if we're going by personal experiences, it's quite difficult for me to understand how someone could actually want to be a guy or enjoy being a man. Guess every man out there in the world is abnormal, right?

Get a basic understanding on the theory of minds and get back to me. K?

I can think of no better way for you to describe yourself, catfish.

Awww, c'mon.... You're just mad because I exposed your first question's presuppositional fallacy and you gave an obtuse (unclear) answer to the definition of "normal" to hide that fact.
You then responded displaying attributes that fit the other (2a) definition. It was fucking classic!
