Thread Name: BS: Death penalty for homosexuality?
Subject: RE: BS: Death penalty for homosexuality?
Keith,

You are right, Ake is deliberately ignoring the full picture and focussing on specific segments of humanity.

He is doing this as it is his purpose to show that Homosexuality is a dangerous disease ridden perversion.

If he were right, this would be reflected consistently in all demographics.

If it isn't reflected overall, then that means it isn't true overall.

My kitchen table has a red spotty table cloth on it.

In the context of Tables in My kitchen, it can be said that kitchen tables have red spotty table cloths on them.

But in general, Kitchen tables have lots of types of cloths, and some have none.

So a selective analysis gives us a misleading picture of reality.

Ake says that in the UK Gay men are 50 times more likely to contract AIDS.

He concludes that homosexuality is unhealthy.

He deliberately ignores the rest of the evidence as it contradicts his view.

He even posts "evidence" which contradicts his view concerning whether discrimination is a help or a hindrance.

So far you have provided some nteresting links.

I'd love to know your reaction to Ake's opinion as that has become the central discussion on this thread.

Is Ake right that homosexuality is the problem.

And why the fuck is everyone humouring this bitter shock-fetishist.
