When I pressed you to shore up this assertion with logic, reason and argument, you were unable to do so.

So you believe this because you <want> to and not because there are <logical>, <reasoned> arguments for it.

Furthermore, there is no such thing as a homophobe because there is no such thing as homophobia. It does not exist. It's a false notion that does not describe any part of reality. Therefore, it is a lie. It is a word that is meant to deceive.

What's been made clear by this discussion is that there are no good reasons to think that people must fear homosexuals and homosexuality and that they don't find it disgusting. There are no good, logical, reasoned arguments for it, as you admitted.

But what's also been made clear is that you, as well as all libs, badly <want> to believe this, where <want> is an emotional current that runs through you, pulling the strings of your mind and leading you to make irrational decisions, come what may.

As long as that bit of truth has been made clear, I find this discussion to be most profitable for the lurking reader.

Let's put this in the working man's terms.

The regular folks say, "homosexuality is not only immoral but it's also disgusting and I condemn it."

The libs respond, "You're just to afraid to take it up the ass. Why don't you start taking it up the ass to prove to us that you're not afraid."

That's like a man chomping on a hot turd and saying to his horrified onlookers, "you're just afraid to taste it. This isn't really gross. You're just chicken"

But this discussion also illustrates another point. People who reject God do not have morals. They can't tell right from wrong. Godless people are unable to see that killing an unborn child is wrong. Godless people are unable to see that one guy sticking his penis up another guy's @#$%ty ass is wrong.

<Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done.>

I would still maintain that homophobia is a social construct and that the most vocal homophobes are deep down afraid rather than disgusted.>

In-between-the-ears analysis seems fundamental to liberalism.

Basically, the survival rate of COVID-19 is close to 100%.

Didn't the <EXPERTS> say that the coronavirus was 10x more contagious than the flu? If so, then we can take our current number of total cases and multiply it by at least 10. This reduces the fatality rate to a fraction.

What about them?

If you say so. You are welcome to express these controversial opinions here in the Free Speech Zone. That's what it's all about.

False>

<Why is that false? It seems so obviously true, how could it possibly be false?>

So you are advocating that because he had committed crimes in the past, even heinous crimes that police should be able to execute him and others? That frankly is a very scary place to be. Why then are those that illegally murder people considered hero's instead of villains themselves?

I say this knowing full well that Floyd was not a saint, that he contributed to his own demise by resisting arrest after allegedly and in all likelihood committing a crime at the time. Now he was still a human being, he still was begging for mercy and wasn't doing anything worthy of death.

FWIW I don't think Chauvin committed first degree murder since I doubt he thought Floyd was going to die. It was however very likely reckless homicide. I don't hold any of the other officers accountable for a multitude of reasons. Including they didn't kneel on the mans neck, they actually asked Chauven to ease up and they were new to the force. I think they are actually the kind of officers I would want on my police force.

The police did not execute him, so that is not what I am arguing.

<FWIW I don't think Chauvin committed first degree murder since I doubt he thought Floyd was going to die. It was however very likely reckless homicide.>

I see no reason to think that at this time. In my prior post to you, from which you quoted, I explained my position on this case as clearly as I could. There are a few sentences in that response to you that I think you may have glossed over, because you did not include them in your response to me.

<Including they didn't kneel on the mans neck...>

What qualifies you to make that judgment and how exactly is this judgement justified? How is this not more than merely parroting the media narrative? I hope you agree that those are fair questions to ask.

<Police that commit crimes need to be charged with crimes and today that is happening more often than not.>

I did not see a guilty verdict yet, did you?

When I heard recently that stoicism was considered “pathological” as discussed in this piece https://thefederalist.com/2019/01/0... ... It was clear as day what’s been going on; an all-out war on healthy men.>

Welcome to the red pill.

Anyway, was it just last year that the shrink society apologized to homosexuals for calling it a mental illness? There is so much insanity happening now, at such an accelerated pace, I forget exactly when each new lunacy was embraced by our "culture".

I don't assume the outcome is certain, because there are too many people embracing the insanity. But if there are debates, Trump wins easily.

Still, I've been pondering the same idea, suppressing the insurrection there. Since he wouldn't ever be up for election after this year, he can take bold steps to ensure his legacy.

A Trump win will likely mean a GOP-led house, and impeachment off the table for 2 years. But if he sends in troops, do the Dems repeat 2018 and take back the House? In that case they would probably impeach him for sending in troops.

True >

Obama? ... He was black. That's what he did.>

And yet you make sweeping statements on the subject.>

That's because you don't need to study homosexuality to understand the history of Western Civilization!

<I know you can do better than that (and you also do in the later posts I admit).>

If it helps you out, I will append my statements, in <>:

It is only in advanced Western countries where the propaganda campaigns have made enough inroads into brainwashing people, where homosexuality is <("is" indicates present tense, in other words, 'right now')> actually tolerated under the law.

<<<<>>>Troller: Renaissance North Italy?>

Further appending to my post: <What law or laws were passed in that region, at that time, that gave legal tolerance homosexuality?

And you still be wrong! At this point, you are taking your POV as an article of faith, as I will now explain.

Saint Paul, in the Bible, defines what faith is:

"faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen."

You are not a mind reader, you don't see "deep down" into anyone's psyche. So you maintain your POV, this thing unseen by you, through faith.

When you've been coddled since puberty for your athletic skill, and had helpers and teachers and tutors and coaches and administrators smoothing the way for you, ever since you made the varsity team in HS, and you've had the pretty groupies and the free ride to college and the cash stipends and the training table and the adulation of fans, and then the big contracts and lavish wealth and fame and shoe contracts of pro sports, and all of your life your butt has been kissed by society and the media, it's probably impossible to understand the Average Joe's of society.

I don't think they said 10x. Never saw that number anywhere.

<If so, then we can take our current number of total cases and multiply it by at least 10.>
