Homosexuality may be some sort of 'abnormality' in people's genes or whatever but I imagine the same sort of abnormalities can be find for a whole host of different attractions/fetishes that people may have. IMO You should only call it a disease when you feel it needs to be cured for the good of...

Are you saying; - If someone is too lazy to work they deserve to die, or - If we provide assistance people have less incentive to work ?

Republicans: Mc Cain Dems: Hillary

Actually you've been answered on that many times Bshoc, you just have a very selective memory.

Re: 2007 Federal Election - Coalition or Labor/Howard or Beazley? www.labor.org.au ?

I actually think the debate regarding intelligent design should be discussed in schools, in perhaps a philosophy or 'critical thinking' class of some type - Not in the science classroom.

You didn't get the job, did you?

I explained the reason you should try to write more coherantly, it's so that other people may be more inclined to listen to you.

After this defeat, McCain is their only choice.

He was actually my pick (pre-scandal) for the rep nomination in 08.

I dunno I'm kinda tired after 12 hours of work put in today

Yes, when you're describing hypothetical's sometimes you like to put yourself in a hypothetical position of authority to hypothetically make the decision. See above. No, It's more a matter of compromise....... both sides 'give' and 'take' in order to come to a more compatible solution for...

Anyway to be honest I'd not give gay's "Same-Sex marriage" but instead give them "Same-Sex Partnerships", what's your problem with that Bshoc?

No, the strongest opposition comes from right-wing conservative christians. No... We take nothing away from marriage by allowing gay marriage except for some undefinable symbolism that you (and maybe others) use to defend your position. Bad analogy, you see granting men equal rights over...

What you have to realise, with these figures is: - Some include private contributions. - Some include only state funds. - Some include only federal funds. - Some include both state and federal. You want one that includes both state and federal, minus private contributions imo to wage a fair...

But hasn't this shown to be wrong in many tests which were posted much earlier in the life of this thread? I'll try to dig them up for you. In what way exactly is this an issue? Even if people are merely feigning their homosexuality (something I truly doubt happens on any wide-scale) what does...

No I don't think so, a plum would still be a plum no matter what we called it, you could call a plum a strawberry and yet there would still be these things with the characteristics of what we currently call a strawberry. If we decide to change the legal definition of marriage (all that IMO...
