    Homosexuality in Australia

    But people don't have a right to not be offended. That's the critical difference. Removing discrimination trumps offence, every time. At least in civilised societies.

    Homosexuality in Australia

    That's great if you were living in a society if everybody was the same, believed in the same god and agreed with each other on every point. But this isn't. There are Christians and Muslims and Hindus and Buddhists and atheists and Pastafarians and god knows what else, all believing differently...

    Homosexuality in Australia

    They are things available to one group of people and not another for an arbitrary reason (their sexuality). That makes it a discussion about discrimination, and therefore rights. People/a group do not have the right to be discriminated against by the state based on their gender, race, etc - why...

    Homosexuality in Australia

    Mine in particular? None. I'm not gay. But that doesn't mean I can't passionately defend those that are, given that they are discriminated against in tax law, family law (adoption and marriage), etc etc. What kind of a world do we live in when a person cant visit their dying loved one in...

    Homosexuality in Australia

    Like the right of people to be on the same footing as others? The right of gay people to be treated the same as straight, and be afforded the same rights? :rolleyes:

    Homosexuality in Australia

    Your "God" to us is just one of many. Therefore, the lowercase is appropriate.

    Homosexuality in Australia

    But you just said (or indicated, maybe I'm projecting) you were willing to accept heterosexuality is as much of a lifestyle choice as homosexuality is; that is, in my view, not at all. So you expect people to have sex with people they're not attracted to because the gender they are attracted to...

    Homosexuality in Australia

    Isn't it easier to just call it something that just is? Neither homosexuality or heterosexuality are choices, inasmuch as one can choose to have red hair or brunette hair.

    Homosexuality in Australia

    Except homosexuality is not a lifestyle choice, unless you also consider heterosexuality a lifestyle choice.

    Oh, because he believes only non-believers need to read the whole thing. Believers can get away with not reading a word because, y'know, they have faith.

    And you claim to know what the interest of God is? Lol, how arrogant.

    Homosexuality in Australia

    It's funny how God didn't say anything about marriage being between one man and one woman (lol polygamy). Perhaps because back then, marriage was more about a business contract than about love? FUNNY HOW TIMES AND DEFINITIONS CHANGE, ISN'T IT.

    Movies don't need to do something new and exciting with a plot every time. The Avatar plot is good: it's just one you've seen before. Do yourself a favour. Turn your brain off for a minute. Just sit back, and enjoy the experience.

    Atheism - Discussion thread

    Well, it's more that there is no ultimate authority in our lives. We are responsible for every thing we do, achieve, create, destroy. Isn't living "for" your God so you can go to heaven inherently in your own self-interest? You have an idol. An atheist doesn't have any. And you know what...

    Atheism - Discussion thread

    Is it really? Then how were people moral before religion? How are they moral if they've never heard of it? Humans have evolved morality independent of any external influence, and this is what informs your warped religious morals. We've been over this, but I guess you follow the "I CAN'T HEAR...

    Whereas someone like me would see it thus: "To live a morally right life, not necessarily religiously; to love your fellow people, to resist the temptation to be a bad person, and glorify yourself in all that you accomplish and endeavour to achieve."
