: Normal, mathematical term, meaning of or pertaining to teh norm on a distributive graph- what is so good about normal, why is normal valorized above the abnormal?

Dude, what is wrong with just using words as they are commonly understood? So what if Wester had an esoteric reference.

: : If you wish to eat the quality of grain they feed cattle, go ahead. We are not talking about high quality stuff here. I'm sick of this argument. I will never feel guilty for enjoying prosperity Nikhil. That is a gift from God. I should share my prosperity with those poor that are within my personal contact. But the shame of ignoring the poor that are not within my reach falls on those who are within reach but fail to help.

: And if you live as part of a world wie economic system, and thus everyone is within your immediate concern?

You haven't the capacity to shoulder this, nor do you have the emotional stability to absorb the sum total of human suffering. No one does. But if you take care of your neighbor, and he takes care of his neighboe, and so on, and so on... Doesn't the inherant inefficiency of massive institutional redistribution scare you or do you see humans as capable of running a huge enterprise like that without the kind of corruption that history has shown us is inevitable?

: Does in Denmark- what about it, state recognizes it there, is Denmark a Sin of Soddom free zone, because they can marry (and yes, I think in some cases its in church, funky protestants strike again).

I meant biblical homosexual marriage. Check the context again.

: : If the instinct to procreate and to eat are just about as basic an urge as can be had, why is the male animal who trys to have sex with another male justification for homosexuality and the animal who eats the other not justification for me to eat meat?

:: I ahve an ugly kid sister, fancy a turn? Why is refusing an offer of sex from a man I am not attracted to any different from refusing an offer of sex from a woman I am not attracted to. Answer this stu, or you'll begin to look like your arguments lack all reason. You are persistantlyavoiding this one, so that you can maintain your holy dichotomy of sexuality, I haven't even begun on the Kinsey scale yet....

Actually, I've not answered because my plans to rule the world are time consuming. Don't even mention Kinsey to me Deathy. He has no standing in any reputable circles anymore.

First, I would suggest that you should turn down an offer from a woman who you were attracted to for health and moral reasons if she is not your wife.

Second, It is natural to be attracted to her. It is natural to be attracted to any good looking female if you are male. The question is, if you are attracted to good looking females, why are you not attracted to good looking males? You see Deathy, there is quite a difference between turning down a male for sex - attractive as he may be and a bad looking female. Of course you do it for entirely different reasons! But I certainly don't need to tell you how you really feel about these things. You lose this argument by acknowledging that you are not attracted to any male sexually. You can't win this by saying your not repulsed in some way by homosexuality and then out of the other side of your mouth admit that there are no men (or couldn't be) who interest you. Men and women have normal desires for their sexual opposites and those that have desires for the same sex are quite abnormal and abberant.
