    How Homophobic Are You?

    I don't think you understand cause and effect Polycarp Might I suggest reading Ted Honderich's CAUSALITY OR CAUSATION THE FUNDAMENTAL FACT PLAIN EXPLAINED? Here is an excerpt: Causes, like the other conditions which enter into causal circum-stances, are at bottom conceived by us to be certain...

    How Homophobic Are You?

    That's fine use your bible, but I'm not interested in having a discussion with someone who appeals to authority. Now, a lot of Christians and indeed the Vatican believes that science only reveals the truth about the bible. Which is why I'm interested in having a coversation with someone who...

    How Homophobic Are You?

    Depends how you define "choice" if it means "anything that you do". Than of course gay sex is a choice. If you want to know what it is like to be really gay just imagine how hot you get for a woman (or whatever) and then replace it with a man. I am not a homosexual. I'm straight and it isn't a...

    How Homophobic Are You?

    You do realize of course that all you have done is pick one of 7 names to attack. You then attack the individuals political views as if it refutes the research. Indeed this same thing happened when someone pointed out the J. M. Bailey controversy. I can assure you I am well aware of the...

    How Homophobic Are You?

    Why does that matter? What I'm referring to is the fact that homosexuality is not strictly a choice. J.M. Bailey and R.C. Pillard, “A genetic study of male sexual orientation,” Archives of General Psychiatry, vol. 48:1089-1096, December 1991. Bailey, J. M. and D. S. Benishay (1993)...

    How Homophobic Are You?

    You may want to consider that facts are often considered to be the least important. What is of utmost importance is the theory which explains the facts. That is where the real challenge is. Of course ignorance is the easy, blissful option and is precisely what "Faith" represents. When the facts...

    How Homophobic Are You?

    Big Bang theory is not a theory of "something from nothing". The Big Bang was an expansion of space-time. Cosmologists generally say that there was nothing before the Big Bang. This doesn't mean that there was a place in which nothing existed. It means that our language can't describe it and...

    Dehumanizing Stereotypes

    The disagreement in the scientific community about homosexuality is the degree to which environment and genes determine sexuality. Science never considers magical theories like "Free-will" as valid variables. A scientific theory is not a colloquial "theory".

    Dehumanizing Stereotypes

    Homosexuality is a irrefutable fact of life. It's not a free choice, ever. It can be a choice, but not a free one. Those of you who accept evolution due to the evidence, consider this, there is just as much evidence that there are no free decisions.

    The Science of Homosexuality, Pedophilia and Fetish

    My sister Ashely is not a Christian she is an atheist. She had a Lesbian bout and now is marrying a man. This is because it wasn't about "sexuality" for her it was about comfort. She was born into a culture that caused her to fear men. She was taught by the culture that men might rape her, beat...

    The Science of Homosexuality, Pedophilia and Fetish

    Consider this for a moment, if you will. In psychology researchers use a measure called a "heritability coefficient". The purpose of the HC is to determine the influence genes for a trait. J. Michael Bailey and Richard Pillards studies showed a .5 HC. More specifically they took groups of...
