Kind of like the ones you do about Christians. That is, until it's Obama's church, then you hop on the bandwagon.

I believe the words you said was Christianity is "detrimental to society" as a whole, along with other critisisms of church leaders. And, with Obama's church, that is "unashmedely black" and has adopted the black value system and black tenents you siad they are "not really racist". Biased much?

And as usual, you end with a blah blah.....proves nothing.

Religion threads, or when a poster turns a totally different topic by making a comment about religion.

Just leave it alone. People are still going to believe what they believe no matter how many religion threads people make.

And as usual, you end with a blah blah.....proves nothing.

I have this book and it's a book I like a lot. It's called "A Rulebook for Arguments". It's the third edition and it's written by Anthony Weston. What I like about this book is that at the begging of the book he says the following:

"Some people think that arguing is simply stating their prejudices in a new form. This is why many people also think that arguments are unpleasant and pointless. One dictionary definition for "argument" is "disputation." In this sense we sometimes say that two people "have an argument":" a verbal fistfight. It happens often enough. But it's not what arguments really are."

He goes on to say...

"In this book, "to give an argument" means to offer a set of reasons or evidence in support of a conclusion. Here an argument is not simply a statement of certain views, and it is not simply a dispute. Arguments are attempts to support certain views with reasons. Nor are arguments in this sense pointless; in fact, they are essential."

Well, I do find that interesting, and I must say I agree. Too many people approach arguments as if they are negative, and it's mostly because most people don't know how to argue to begin with.

If you believe in evolution and the idea of natural selection it's important to consider this in the terms of mental abilities as well as physical ones. If everyone had the same opinions, ideas, conclusions, and methods of doing things then that would leave us relatively weak as a species with few routes to take if change were necessary for survival. Arguments are necessary for the survival and growth of the human species.

There is nothing to hate about arguments. What you hate is as Anthony Weston says "simply stating their prejudices in a new form." Which is not an actual argument.

Being homosexual is having attractions to the opposite sex...or am I missing something?

Whatever dude, I can't stop you from listening to rap. I can only tell you it's mostly mean, evil, stupid, violence glorifying noise pollution. I'm a better person for not listening to it anymore.

And what might be even more disgusting is that from the Madonna's to the Britney's and all around, much of the pop music today is about hip hoping interracial sex, violence, and homosexuality in women!

Coke vs Pepsi. Too violent for my taste.

Being homosexual is having attractions to the opposite sex...or am I missing something?

I believe having attractions to the opposite sex is being heterosexual.
