did i say everyone's gonna turn gay? sexual preference? yeah so what? against nature itself. if you're saying that emitting co2 is causing the destruction of nature f*** that. i don't care. no one has the right to question whether i want to pollute or not. so go to hell with the green house bullshit stories? smile.gif

have you ever heard to pornstars are admitted into hospitals in the US everyday for STI? you think they're practicing religion? you think that one day any type of STIs won't be immune to our ever-so-expiring medications? same case with gays. majority of them get AIDS via sodomy. you think creating rubber latex condoms and inserting it into the anus is a natural thing to do? who has the right to question them? nature itself. also gay people say they're just born that way. wow. what a great excuse. all natural right? now kids who think they're homos can all just resort to being gay. i hope your kid does.

and america the most religious nations. LOLz. haven't been to mecca or syria have you? i would also say the vatican is a small and religious nation, but the rumours about are rapidly growing there.
america is filled with christians. but their religion is dead. they don't practice. majority don't.
they're just christian by registration.
i like how you're so educated reading the times and newsweek and no other source of unfiltered info delivered by the west. it's no wonder you're like this.

bwaahahahahaha you serious? ban straight sex? oh when will that day become i wonder. perhaps when technology comes up with a way for gays to reproduce. lol.
i don't think i'll even bother replying your next replies because people with religion suddenly have been accused of being shallow. yes the modern world as we know today disses religion everyday. i will accept all your hard "evidence" and "facts" via wikipedia, newsweek and times. smile.gif i suppose us shallow people can hide in our holes now.

first off,i don't want to elaborate on how HIV spreads,read this before your misconception gets deeper...

and read these as well cuz homosexuality is NOT exclusive to humans,animals have been observed to display homosexual behavior and this gives scientists the indication that,sexual preference might be somehow genetically determined along with several other factors, together influence the sexual proclivity of animals...

last but not least,you have just showed me how distorted and narrow minded a religious person can be,let me just share some of my personal experience with you,I used to say and do exactly the same thing as what you're doing right now when I was a devoted believer,but after running several rounds of debate with a group of erudite atheists(actually not a debate,feud is the more appropriate term,i condemned while they carried out the debate reasonably and sensibly),i started to question my belief,did an investigation regarding my belief,and i realized that religion is not as benign as people thought it was and i soon quit my belief after that ,btw,you've made me curious ,have you ever questioned your belief?what makes you think it's the absolute truth and the 'sacred' book you read is believable?is the book inerrant?does religion turn me into someone that I don't even recognize? have you ever asked yourself these questions?anyway, if you think that religion does,to some extent,helps you to become a better person and you find comfort in what you believe,then go ahead,but DON'T impose your belief on others as if it was an irrefutable fact that everyone is obliged to practice...

1) i can accept "we don't know about...................yet" as an answer. keeps our mind working and to look for answer, instead of why........., oh it is due to god.
2) what is right and what is wrong depends on many thing, it ain't static. also there are gray areas where right and wrong happens at the same time.

quoted from your o-lovable wikipedia
"...and the risk for transmitting HIV through unprotected anal intercourse is greater than the risk from vaginal intercourse or oral sex."

what misconceptions you were saying again? smile.gif

and oh wait, we're suddenly comparing ourselves to animals? hmmm what happened to the gift our brain and free will?
an excuse for being homo, mass adultery and what not will always fall back on science.
i'm not blaming science or anything. it does give you the facts.
i guess i'll just be homo now since science just explained everything for me rather than relying on religion to re-align the natural order.

and yes i've questioned my belief. let's go back to science.
theories suggests that everything was created via the big bang. and we know that matter can be created out of nothing (anti-matter). let's talk about time. some scientists has theorised that time was created. and it is part of another dimension. that there was a beginning of time. others believe that time has always existed, but this will rule out the fact that time travel is impossible which contradicts what one of the greatest scientist, einstein has ever said. so enough blabber about quantum physics, would you rather believe that the everything was created without the hands of a supreme being? there are more stars than there are grains of sands on earth. how bout you re-question your disbelief?

and you call me narrow minded? lol.
i've probably watched every conspiracy out there against/on religion. i did my phd on the relationship between science/religion and i've probably read more about religion than you. the question is now, have you? or you just gave yourself another excuse to give up the belief bestowed upon you by your parents and did not go anywhere from there? religion, just like science, relies a lot on research and reading. you've probably become a victim of what i simply call "the easier way out".

"...and the risk for transmitting HIV through unprotected anal intercourse is greater than the risk from vaginal intercourse or oral sex."
Yes the risk is higher, but there is also a risk in heterosexual intercourse. Now what?
Also, not all homosexual couples engage in anal sex (around 60% only do)

You talk about nature, nature is everything around us. Humans, animals, plants and the surrounding environment is nature.
"It is against nature blah blah blah"
Then CleverDick posted a link on animal sexual behavior and you divert the argument saying "and oh wait, we're suddenly comparing ourselves to animals? hmmm what happened to the gift our brain and free will?"
Is this your way of a debate? Arguing for point X then diverting to point A?

Doesn't the bible teach good values? Why aren't they prevalent in you? You judge others, judge prostitutes and homosexuals.
You condemn others to have a gay child (Which in your eyes is something evil and repulsive, but in the eyes me and other like-minded people, we would totally accept our child)

The religious mind.
We give evidence for A, you give argument B.
We give evidence for B, you give argument C.

personally, i view religion as an act of faith which im not readily to commit to

morality is more important for me

and it depends on each individual whether they find themselves need religion or they dont

1.as ianlee pointed out,heterosexuals as well have the risk of being infected by HIV,but you on the other hand,fervently claimed that the homosexuals are condemnable because they somehow have higher risk of being infected,solely based upon your one sided claim?if this is not misconception then what is it?I mean,come on,every individual has the risk of being infected if unprotected and promiscuous sex are endorsed...
2.next,you're not answering the question,i was talking about science and now you're redirecting me back to religion,argument is considered invalid here....
3.we are yet to unfold the complete puzzles regarding the birth of the universe,so it's utterly fallacious to use these uncertainties as the evidence of your god's existence,again this is not a valid argument,and throughout the comments you have committed at least two logical fallacies,if using fallacies to strengthen your argument is the best you can do,then i must say,you're totally undeserving of the title PHD as PHDs in my impression,are the ones that could think critically and reasonably,however in your case,the opposite is true...
with respect to your last paragraph of your remarks,ironically,the more research i do,the more that i'm convinced that religion is nothing more than an entity that drives people towards extreme aggressiveness,and the book that has been claimed holy(inerrant!?) throughout history is just an amalgam of unreasonabilities and unreliabilities,contradictions throughout,backed by fragmented evidence,most of the times evidence found are against instead of supporting it,not to mention it holds absolutely no ground in the face of concrete scientific evidence that are against it,the history of religion?well,full of violence,intolerance and not the otherwise was promoted,unreserved massacre incited by religion is found throughout history,the injustice is still happening now,though have been scaled down considerably,thanks to the enforcement of laws.All these things led me to conclude that religion is totally unreasonable,you may then convince yourself and argue that,oh well,there must be explanations for these,or in your case,brand them as conspiracies?but the more investigations you do,the more it strays you away from your religion,not brings closer....

ooo contradictions. 60% of heteros have anal sex. how many % of that are religious? lol.
unprotected/promiscuous sex... hmmm, which human law controls these acts if not the good practice of religion?
back to the birth of the universe, we have no answers. i've already said they're theories. all we have is something, but without an explanation. when will science provide full-proof evidence of it?
i am merely a scholar whom relates science, religion and politics. it's a fact that people are leaning more towards science instead of religion. more and more think religion isn't something required anymore. but i theorised that people will fall back on it in the end eventually.
the belief in a supreme being is also theory. just like science, theories are ready to cross over to being facts. but such a far-fetched theory is impossible to be a fact. and just like many theories, it is only logical to believe that it took more than just pure coincidence of how the universe was born.
i also believe in newton's third law. balance. for every extremist out there, there are the peaceful and humble. but all we see on tv are violence coz peace is just so boring to watch.

now you're back on the right path
yes,we have not had an adequate explanation for the birth of the universe,but using this uncertainty as a proof of god's existence is fallacious when there are other possible explanations for this,it could be a group of highly intelligent aliens living in another dimension,or a flying spaghetti monster etc. created the universe,see?the answer could be any of these,that being said,you're absolutely permitted to say that it was god that created the universe and hence everything that contains and resides within it,but don't jump the gun and make a wild conclusion that it's a fact,it's misleading as we don't know the answer yet...

There are many things in the world that we do not have answers or we do not have exact or absolute answer but that does not mean god exists or we cannot know for sure. Evidence is fact, some are important than others, and some have more to tell than others. Theory explains a group of facts, and in science, theory is more useful than facts because we can use theory to predict facts that we do not know yet. So theory ranks higher than facts in science and differs drastically from the layman meaning of "just a theory".

So belief in a supreme being is not a theory in every scientific sense. I am surprised you do not understand the distinction of a scientific theory, fact and 'just a theory" as in layman understanding. Newton's third law is not about balance, but it is about conservation of momentum. It is not at all about equilibrium or balance. What is balance when momentum is conserved?

People will fall back towards religion eventually depends on the quality of life. If you were to take statistical data, you will find correlation between distribution of non-believer vs believers as the quality of life improves. Of course there is some exception to this rule, but the analogy is if you are poorly educated and live in a state of constant fear and uncertainty, you tend to believe in a religion that will bring you some comfort.

I wouldn't choose to say that it is fact whereby people are leaning more towards science instead of religion. Or is it a fact already? What criteria qualify it as a fact, when religion sects all around the world claims the believe of billions of people combined? Can it change today to a theory from fact?

IMHO, if you have to believe something, it is more relevant to believe in a creator as an attempt to explain creation, as a first step, and then try and scutinize the religion, rather than to believe first in a "religion" and then try to explain creation through what such religion dictates.

One can be a believer of a creator, but a disbeliever of all religion in this world, simply because the person comes to percieve that all religion have serious flaws that implied that it is the product of an imperfect human mind, or so it seems.

Who told you the creator creates religion in the first place? If there is one? Average people merely believe in religion first, and force their might to defend every notions given by their religion.

Do you really think we haven't done any research regarding religions ?it's not that we don't want to believe,it's just that religions have failed to convince us in every aspects,and the teaching 'non believers are going to hell' is of course one of the reasons that prompted us to withdraw ourselves from religions...
p/s,when you spit the phrase 'not to think just believe' you have already revealed your absolute blindness,and btw,may the force be with you too... icon_rolleyes.gif

You are probably going to hell too, if what you said is true. Why? I am not going to tell you because since you are not using your brain to think, there is no more learning for you, is there? But feel free to enjoy the fruits from people who think and progress through decades of learning and knowing.

To lead a good life must you pray every sunday or everyday for five times if your a muslim?
Must you give 10% of your salary to the church even though they are wealthy enough to feed the whole of africa? (Vatican)

So what if they have anal sex? They didn't force you to have anal sex with them right? Did they screw your ass hole? Is that why you are so homophobic?

Why do you need religion to lead a good life?
I lead a good life.
I don't commit crimes
I don't steal
I don't kill
I don't do things that will affect others adversely

but why dont you do any of the above? what conditioned you to know that those things are "bad"? parents? society norms? moral studies? books? movies? or others? and where do those get the idea that the things listed are bad?

No, because we survive till now. i meant human race could survive till now, is the PROOF of "good" value.


if human's worship "bad" value, u and me wont be here now.. we already "extincted" ourselves.

The ability to "THINK" is the most precious ability we have. Absolutely not "faith".

We learned our mistakes through "history" book, not from storybook such as "bible".
