  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

one's clone?

a buzzard?
One's clone! Awesome!

Doesn't stop Nambla. I mean why be so darn restrictive? Isn't that the argument?
Actually, it does stop NAMBLA, which is why they try to change the laws.

Of course, many gays are there to argue against them. As are Christians and just about every other rational group.

Nah, the argument is why restrict two consenting adults from entering into a contract together based on gender.

It's OK, follow the argument. I am talking rational.

I call it the equivalent of saying certain minority groups drink the blood of sacrificed Christian babies. It's called hate speech in some places.

I hope you consider the impact of your words and the words of others like you the next time some gay person is beaten half to death by ignorant people who consider all gay men to be pedophiles.

To pervert is to distort or twist. Sexual perversion is a distortion and twisting of the divine design.

If there is no "divine design", then there is no perversion. Prove to me there is a "divine design" and I will aquiesce.

Okay then.

What if it's a blind dead insensate mute on life support?

What if it's a imaginary friend?

What if it's . . . a trekkie?

See this is why I will not give an inch to "you guys." Even a misconstrued word or two and you think I'm joining the bathhouse club.



Whay should "what" be a minority classifier? OHhhhhh gay sex.



Last time I looked at a guy walking down the street that I knew to be into gay sex, looked just like a guy that wasn't into gay sex. It's flippin' creepy to give minority rights to the one guy that likes gay sex.

Are we going for preferred sex positions next?

Is S & M or B & D next?

Serioulsy, where's it end?

Sodom or Gomorrah? We forget about the perversions of Gomorrah huh? What were those folks into?



No, no, no, OH no. Before "you guys" claimed these tiltles "Gay" and "Lesbian" and "Bi-Sexual," you were just into lascivious licenitiousness. Also "Gays" were known by other names. And the one that starts with P is the one that concerns my side of the issue most.

Why aren't "Lesbians" called Sapphoians? "Lesbian" is just silly. All citizens of Lesbos are Lesbians, even the men.

Why aren't men that like homosexuality called Malians?

And in regards to "Bi-Sexuals" why are they part of your club at all? I have absoutely no cause to admire that moniker. A declaration of Anything Goes, IN any direction, with immutability, is something to be concerned about. I'm talking CDC concerned about.

And Transgendered? I have the greatest of compassion for anyone in that condition. I don't know why, I just do. It probably stems from them knowing what proper sexuality is all about. And certainly it is far easier to understand them than the other three.
Homosexuality =/= Pedophilia how many times does that need to be spelled out, in fact gay men are less likely to be pedophiles than straight men.

There are thoudsand of people pushing it as a civil right. And thousands of us that oppose them.

This is tough for you?



I do not see how your use is remotely logical from the definitions I have posted.

What if the person of one's choosing is 4 years old or one's sibling or one's mom?

We are talking two consenting adults just as in every marriage, except of course the one that allow 14, 15 and 16 year olds to consent.

So, back to my OP.

Why such a focus on gays when the world is fraught with many many many more social issues?

I guess that my question was answered when PCF started posting though. It's obvious that there are some extreme bigots with twisted views on reality dwelling under the guise of religion. I can see how one such as him can incite a hateful intent in those around him who would not readily stand against him. After all, he speaks to what many christians (at least partially) feel about homosexuality. His reasoning though.. it's insane. >_<
