Thread Name: BS: Death penalty for homosexuality?
Subject: RE: BS: Death penalty for homosexuality?
I have stayed the Hell out until this excrable piece of nonsense.

Now I cannot sit still.

The full quote is:

"99%????..You mean you leave out, finding a partner of the opposite sex, loving that person, crossing the differences of the genders, making love to that person, producing a child, with, and by that person, and spending your days, raising and loving that child, into adulthood???"

Let me parse and add commentary:

"99%????..You mean you leave out, finding a partner of the opposite sex,"

Why does a loving partner need to be of the opposite sex?

"loving that person,"

Ditto!

"crossing the differences of the genders,"

WTF? Why does this matter? Can't we also say appreciating the PERSON?

"making love to that person,"

Yup, got that covered. But this is the point where Ake has such vivid imagingings.

"producing a child, with, and by that person,"
So procreation is all that matters? What about the heteros who marry late in life? Or those who decide to not have kids? You are no fooking counselor...trust me.

"and spending your days, raising and loving that child, into adulthood???"

I have three (count 'em three!) immediate relatives who have all done this while married to a same-sex partner. And the kids are happy, well-adjusted successes with kids of their own. Again, you are no fooking counselor. You are a poser. A fraud. Now go make up a character to agree with you. And use no capitals to disguise your "voice". And, be sure to not use the phrase "being as", or you will be transparent on the spot. Go.
