I realize that for some people labeling someone else a homosexual seems like a "smear" but that whole concept strikes me as very denigrating to homosexuals. Well I think Solon covers a large part of the gambit in his reply to this devious specious individual here quite well Message 21561270 What does it have to do with his ability to discuss God, abortion, or whatever? If you have a gnawing need to know (DO YOU??)--you could easily have asked him on PM. Do you mean you are too tactless to understand that SI (and the world in general) carries a great deal of prejudice against homosexuality? And also thought it clear to you earlier, that my concern is more for trying to keep a focus ontopic here , and once again having not to constantly engage slander and specious word games designed to derail discussions here Message 21558189 I was thinking back 9~11 , and of all the tragic images that ensued and witnessed the immediate emergence of nut-job evangelicals like Jerry Falwell using it as an excuse to bash his "ememies" like ACLU, abortionists, feminists, gays weakening this country and inviting attack here's a little that episode truthorfiction.com My thread like many others for weeks and months after 9~11 became a place where many could come to share feelings and stories and even rant and vent . There were only 3 bans during that time I had to make because of PM's to me , and 2 of them were exactly of the same mindset as greg or e of the fundamentalist "Falwell" school of hatred and deception . Of the more horrific scenes I personally found on my searches during that time , was the public execution in N Pakistan of a homosexual by impalement . A 1inch sharpened pole was shoved up his anus , and while he was screaming in agony , up thru his entrail up into his vital chest area until they righted him up and left him impaled there for all the children to see him writhing in agony . I'll just leave it as an image image and not post the link....
