Should I not bother the religious people on here any more? If praying and worshipping is some sort of odd social custom that gives you guys comfort, well, go ahead. I should just regard it like watching some bizarre native rites and leave it at that.
I never have much understood my fellow human beings. Roughly 4400 wars in recorded history, political systems based on purely irrational principles, total disregard for the applications of logic and mathematics to life…a very odd species indeed.
But, other than worshipping imaginary beings, the most fascinating aspect of humans is that a percentage of the males have this odd desire to put their penises into each others’ waste facilities and then marry one another. I find this behavior fascinating. Those people are of course demented and should be locked away from others – the others are already insane enough.
So…I’ll probably leave the religious people alone, due to their obvious dementia. That, and the people with the mad desire to do odd things with their genitalia (the ones above), fascinating…thoroughly fascinating.

Your bigotry is staggering… [/quote]
Interesting! Bigotry? How is stating facts ‘bigotry’?
This may be your first intelligent post to me: how does one equate stating facts with bigotry?
I am genuinely intrigued!

I believe that copulation between members of the same sex is a violation of God’s law and thus endangers one’s soul. There is thus a very practical reason why I think one should not engage in it - the threat of punishment. You obviously look at such reasoning as ridiculous, but I can at least say that my reasons for rejecting the viability of homosexual practice are rooted in a single authoritative source, not in my own heterosexual discomfiture with homosexual practice. “Reason” itself cannot provide legitimate reasons for attacking homosexual practice, and certainly not for characterizing homosexuals as “demented;” the rest of the world has already recognized this.
That’s why you’re a bigot. You have no legitimate reason to critique them except your own arbitrary, culturally-bound standards.
You’re not “advanced,” Headhunter; you’re a relic of a pseudo-intellectual, idealistic age. You are as much a part of the arbitrary and evanescent spirit of the Enlightenment as Kant.
