Religion and Atheism

Re: Religion and Atheism

Are you claiming that people are "forced" to engage in perverted acts by some uncontrollable force?

Does some uncontrollable force make you want to engage in the "non-perverted" version of those acts with women?
Please tell me about when and how you made the conscious decision to be attracted to women.

I'm sure science can back up the fact that there are health risks to sticking body parts in fecal matter.

Well it all started with these two blonde twins on the playground when I was three...

What are you trying to say? Because it's a health risk it couldn't be biological?

Who claimed we were perfectly designed? If anything this is an argument against creation. It's also poor design to have the urinary tract so close to fecal matter, Or to have sex organs right next to the waste system, breathing and eating in the same hole (choking hazard), etc.

Does it being riskier mean that it can't be biological?
Bipolars, when manic, tend to engage in risky behavior, does this mean they chose to be bipolar?

Henry Ford Dies, Goes To Heaven
Henry Ford dies and goes to heaven. At the Gates, St. Peter greets Ford and tells him, "Well, you've been such a good guy, and your invention ... the Assembly line for the automobile ... changed the world. As a reward, you can hang out with anyone in Heaven you want."

Ford thinks about it, and says, "I want to hang out with God Himself." So the befuddled St. Peter takes Ford to the Throne Room, and introduces him to God.

Ford asks God, "When you invented Woman, what were you thinking?"

God asks, "What do you mean?"

"Well," says Ford, "You have some major design flaws in your invention:
1. There's too much front-end protrusion.
2. It chatters way too much at high speeds.
3. Maintenance is extremely high.
4. It constantly needs repainting and refinishing.
5. Every 28 days it leaks fluid and is rendered out of service.
6. The rear end wobbles too much.
7. The intake is placed too close to the exhaust.
8. The headlights are usually too small.
9. Fuel consumption is outrageous.

"Hummmm," replies God, "hold on a minute."

God goes over to the Celestial Supercomputer, types in a few keystrokes, and waits for the results. In no time, the computer prints out a report and God reads it. God then turns to Ford, and says, "It may be that my invention is flawed, but according to these statistics, more men are riding my invention than yours."

You haven't posted a serious reply to my post. Funny joke, but used here and without addressing my points, it looks like a distraction tactic.

The joke is thinking a man doesn't know the difference between sex organs and has no control over his actions. Your argument seems to convey the message that we are mindless beings that can't control ourselves. HayotzAmrotz already covered this.

This goes absolutely to the core of the matter. The religious for some reason love to focus on the physical aspects of sex (calling it wrong, perverted, etc). Homosexuality goes far far faaaaaar beyond just a physical act. People commit to each other and live their entire lives in homosexual relationships. That cannot be simply because of the act of sex.

And now from a more practical perspective ... I definitely don't understand the gay male mind at all. I have 0 such desires (of doing exactly what you said). But never the less, there are males that are attracted to other males and there are females that are attracted to other females and it neither starts nor stops with sex organs.

Re: Religion and Atheism

Humans are the only mammals that can think, which means that they are the only ones that can make an informed decision, a conscious choice.

I am not sure if you are serious here or not. If you are serious, I would ask if you have ever had a cat as pet. I know my cat definitely has me trained very well to do what she wants me to do so either I am stupid, or she is pretty damn smart.

I think I read that sentence waaay too fast and sort of jumped from start to end and totally got confused ... made me do a double take and read it carefully again.
