Unlikely, really. Not just the experience issue,
nor desire (which is one of the points that many
queers bring up - that they really enjoy - but
some women do too), but also likely mouth
size.


Depends on the particular guy or girl giving, and also on the particular guy receiving.


True, but you had made claims as to not
having a wee willie, as I remember. :P


I was just jokin' around -- I'm average-sized and proud of it.

yeah, that is not misoginy, as the real definition of that is "hate" I have seen on this forum people being acused of that, which they are actually just sexists and not real misoginysts.

But you have to agree that Paul was, which it would be considered today as Sexist, as well as early christianity was in those days, and if the Bible says that men are superior than women, wouldn't that be sexism?

About christians being persecuted, I just remember that Jehovah's Witnesses say they are persecuted, and that just because of the blood transfusion thing, which they think it's wrong. I've heard stories that there have been court orders when it comes to a minor to get blood transfusion in order to survive, yes, they are not happy about it.
Do you think they are really persecuted?


No. Blood transfusions are necessary, and they're in an obvious cult which shuns life-saving medical technology.

Exactly, they are against the life-saving medical thing, and they use the Bible to defend their arguments, just as you do to go against gay sexuality, and they think they are being persecuted for that, just as you say you are being persecuted. You don't see some parallels here?


Nope. Jehovah's Witnesses are notorious for being weak on knowledge of Scripture. And I'm not talking about interpretations -- they literally aren't aware of most Bible verses.

This is the funny thing about religions, why your sect has the truth and not them? what makes yours being more truthful than others?
I was adventist before and I could argue that my sect has the truth and no one else does because of the sabbath thing, and I could use the Bible to prove that.

But see, it doesn't even say that. Nor does it ever say to hate women. Compare that with the Koran, which recommends wife beating for their disobedience (I've seen the verses). You're straining to put hatred of women in the Bible -- don't you think that's a sign it's not there? Whereas, the Koran gives you all the hatred you'll ever need in a lifetime, and much more! 8O And it orders its followers to kill homosexuals, unlike the Bible, which does away with that necessity in the New Testament. It even tells them to kill anyone who even disagrees with Islam. Yet virtually everyone on WP goes easy on the Koran, but hates the Bible. :roll: It's just such hypocrisy!

Answer: Because they don't read the Bible. The literally do not open it up, and follow along with their eyes.

Because I follow what the Bible says, and can prove it from the Bible. Whereas the Catholics just make it up as they go along. Notice how many times their official doctrines have changed over time? It's well over 50 times. So, which of those 50 is the truth? Whereas, the Bible has stayed the same throughout the entire life of the ever-changing "Catholic Church".

Dang.... talk about straying off topic.

Most of the anti-gay movement is rooted in hate. That's my opinion. There is no logical argument against gay marriage.

The Bible doesn't say hate women, but it reflects the time and the culture when women were considered inferior, explain this:
Quote:
Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.

1 Timothy 2:11-15

Isn't the Torah part of the Koran?

Aren't a few muslism regimes based in the Torah, which you know is also part of our Bible, to kill homosexuals?
Quote:
If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

Leviticus 20:13

They actually read the Bible, they just have different interpretations of it.

Example:
Quote:
And whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust.
For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it shall be cut off.

Leviticus 7:13-14

Quote:
For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things;
That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.

Acts 15:28,29


This is what they are based from to refuse blood transfers.

As you stated before, how do you know for a fact that women suck better than men? lol
Because being straight one can feel better when a woman does to you than a man, that's not a fact, it's a subjective view, because you are just seeing this in one single point of view, that of a straight man.


Indeed, I've rather heard the opposite.


take that seinfield show for example.... they stick with their team cause they have access to the equipment WAY more... so how can women compete in that arena :lol: :P


Because God made them to match with men, hello... It's obvious, if you just open your eyes.


so how does this support your conclusions that women are better at sucking cock?

yet another point on which you shift your views at the first sign of dissention


Precisely "how" they're better at sucking cock is inelocutable, of course, but I think it's still true.
Perhaps a formal series of trials should be arranged...
And you're now doing the opposite of what you told Kilroy to do. You're being unnecessarily abusive in your language. How will he learn?


so first say women are better at it

then after my seinfield quote you say duh guys ar better at it...

now you go BACK to saying women are better

you have a very odd concept of logic... and i didnt ask how women are better... i asked how does saying men are better (see the bold) support your previous saying that women are better... plz read

and what in that quote was uneccesarily abusive?

and in general..... i am not attacking religion nor gays... just your logic

Come off it. That's your hormones talking.

apes.


No, I find art in cats, birds, trees, flowers, even insects. Just proves my point even more.


these points are irrelivant unless you find animals sexually attractive

No, "art" doesn't always give me a boner. :? What does sexual attraction have to do with whether something is artistic?

silly silly silly

you were claiming that the feminine form was more aesthetic (based on artistic views) than the male form


Actually, I wasn't. You didn't even get that right. If you're pursuing accurate answers, you could at least lead by example.
Sedaka wrote:
cal was contending that it was due to your hormones

Which it wasn't. It's common knowledge that women are artistically beautiful.

my point with art... is i doubt you were thinking past your penis (agreeing with cal) and was just fishing to see whether you had actually given it any artistic consideration

I had.

You lie. You're not here to see whether I'm thinking with my penis or my brain, so how can you [b]arbitrarily say it's one and not the other? [/b] I guess I'm allowed to believe you're lying in all YOUR answers too, right? Fair's fair.


there is no point in debating you... your blindness is too great

im not hunting back throught he originals but asethetic roughly = artistic in this case...... which is what you were saying

you still havent explained why the feminine form is so artistic.... if it's common knowledge... you should at least be able to explain why.... which you havent.... so no i did not lie.

i guess it is arbitrary since you havent proved you have a brain (heart/penis... yes....brain, no)


i am not tired.... my brain is much more efficient than yours

you cannot say this in an objective manner.... you can know it for yourself... sure... but that's the extent cause you could be wrong... even though you know you arent...


I'm stating a fact, not proving it. God's shown me that He's real -- not just real for me, but actually, truly, real.

Well, you do have a point there. When we choose Christ, we're told to "count the cost" (even though many skip that advice). You aren't responsible for the way you were born, so the persecution is more of an affliction for you than for me, in that sense. But in another sense, I have to struggle to hold onto my morality under fire, whereas you are guarunteed to be what you are, regardless -- you neither have to stand up, nor have to worry about giving up: you'll ALWAYS be this way. So, in that sense, you have more assurance than me, because I have to watch out that I don't fall away from God (sin) when the world pressures me to, whereas you have no "sin" (deviation from being how you were born) possible.

So, I have to conciously hold the line. You just have to stay alive, which should be rather easy.


this is utter nonsense!

how does being gay aobsolve you of being responsible for your morality? m and how exactly does homosexuality garantee her not to fall away from god?

what are you talking about?

do you mean BECAUSE she's not christian? that's the only thing i can fathom... though you're being very unclear if that's the case

cause it sounds like you're claimin your only issue you have to deal with is morality and all she has to deal with is sexuality (as if morals just dont apply to her because she's gay)

There.
After they choose.
I didn't choose to be gay. Neither did my friend who was bullied throughout school (even primary school) because of it and ended up depressed and suicidal.


I was depressed and suicidal several times in my life. Being gay doesn't give you any special qualifications or likelihood to be suicidal.


i think this is your first good point.... and im just trying to be neutral cause there are SO MANY reasons to be suicidal

I also would like to know that.

What I think is that you, Ragtime think the feminin form is so artistic and you thank God for the perfect creation, all that, because of the sexual attraction, seeing that with heterosexual eyes, yeah I also believe the feminin form is very good and beautiful because I am also attracted to women, if I was gay I wouldn't look at it the same way, same if you were gay, I don't see how using this to support your arguments can really work, this is subjective and I don't think it has a real value because of it.
