Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by xTheorist(m): 6:29pm On May 04, 2009
It seems more states are jumping on the bandwagon and allowing same sex marriage. I think there are like 11 such states now. The constitution is the highest authority of the courts and that document is silent on a lot of personal issues that have erupted in the society lately. It is agreed that the document is written to curtail the excesses of a government and protect its citizens against tyranny. It also says that whatever is not outlined in the document is therefore not prohibited. If that's the case, then the constitution is not written for the people. So what happens if a man chooses to have sex with another man and the two decide to go into marriage with one another, can the government stop that? This was the contention sorrounding gay rights and same sex marriage debate. Now that it is agreed by many and particularly supported by Democrats that the constitution does not authorize the government one way or another to define marriage or sexuality, then it is clear that the grounds for sexual and marriage interests will grow and it is very well possible that this social liberty may have done an irreversible and permanent damage to the diginty of mankind.

We can expect that sometime in future a group of Americans will advocate for rights to marry their pets. Animals have rights of inheritance today and have legal protection of custody when couples divorce - same rights that children have. Remember the gorilla story few weeks ago? The woman took bath with him in the nude and they shared bed. I know people that sleep with their dog and you know there have been reports and videos of people having sex with their animals. So what is left? Marriage and children. It is reallly disturbing, but hey, becareful what you ask for. If you support a man having sex and marrying another man and you call it liberty, then why deny liberty to the animal lover?

We can expect that sometime in future a group of Americans will advocate for rights of parents to marry their own children. People practice incest already and father get their daughters pregnant or mothers get pregnant by their sons, so why not join them in wedlock? A lot of them are in the closet now but they will begin to ask for right to enjoy liberty. Why can't they? You gave it to those practising sodomy and bestiality.

We can expect that sometime in future in America, polygamy and polyandry will become socially acceptable. Only few sects practice it today and under religious rights but in future, even the atheist will get this right to marry multiple partners. There are clubs for those that wish to swap wives and husbands today anyway and how much longer before it becomes acceptable that you could keep all those varieties you desire and dont need to swap for it.

Jut food for thought!

No it's not. It's complete crap.

How can one compare gay rights to people screwing animals?

I'm no fan of homosexual marriages but to state that they may open the floodgate to incest, pedophilia and beastiality is just bullshit.

Zap you man. Why are you employing common sense? grin

It is a common misconception for people - especially ignorant ones - to draw a parallel between paedophiles and Homosexual. Jeez, that is like comparing Apple and a frog. grin

.

In a society where pedophilia, incest and beastiality exist and in a number of cases has resulted in pregnancy, I think you are naive to respond the way you have done. I suggest you read up on "the strategy of protest and the mechanisms of social control". You definitely need an update!
Re: Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by Bastage: 11:12am On May 05, 2009
Beastiality has resulted in pregnancy?

You're talking crap again guy.

Pedophilia and incest have always been about and have often resulted in pregnancy - it's not some new phenomenon that's just suddenly appeared with a liberal society.

Even if you could prove a link to the modern era (which you can't), you still can't provide one to link that onwards to gay marriage.

Your argument is double-bleeped. wink
Re: Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by xTheorist(m): 11:42am On May 05, 2009
I believe in another post somewhere, you are the same person I asked to identify your country of residence. Your views of contemporary events seem outdated. I will ask you again before I care to educate you on the legal argument about gay rights and same sex marriage. Which country do you reside in? You are shocked by the thought of a human relating with an animal in a matrimony setting but you fail to understand that the concept of domestic partnership, in which all or most of the legal rights of marriage exist in a man-woman cohabitation are also present in a man-animal cohabitation and that the name "marriage" is the only thing missing. 30yrs ago in America if you proposed a man-man marriage you will definitely get lynched. Well, look where we are now, no one is getting lynched for proposing it, much more for taking the vows. I believe your reaction is driven by impulse and not logic. It's understandable, you are human. I am shocked too, by everything, whether it is man to man, father to daughter, man to animal, it is deeply disturbing to me. However, if you read my original post I said it's food for thought, a logical thought process, not an emotional one. If you can not engage me in a logical argument for or against it then I suggest you do not respond at all to the post with emotional outbursts. Understand?
Re: Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by ElRazur: 12:17pm On May 05, 2009
^^^ Arrghhhh your post makes my head hurts. Ever thought of using a paragraph? It will make it easier and clearer for people to read, and hence drive home your points more.

Also, why do you keep coming across like you are condescending others? The irony of it all is that, you actually need more "educationing" than those who have posted in here so far.

Bestiality cannot result into pregnancy. The sperms and eggs of different species do not mix and as a result cannot lead to pregnancy.

You can't keep telling people to "shush" just because they do not share the same view as you. You might as well just not post in here at all if that is your approach. Do not forget this is a public forum, and hardly can you tell people what to do and what not to do. Just my two cents.

Small boi - you do not have the mental capacity to "educate" me.


Which country do you reside in?

I now live in the UK after having travelled all over the world. What does that have to do with anything?

If you can not engage me in a logical argument for or against it then I suggest you do not respond at all to the post with emotional outbursts.  Understand?

I understand that you are an idiot. You can't see the logic in my counter-argument?
Let me put it this way so that even a slowpoke like you can understand it:

Incest and pedophilia have been going on since time immemorial. Go back in time and you will find that in some cultures they were even accepted acts within society. They are not today and never will be accepted again - society has completely changed it's outlook and there is no going back, whatever a slowpoke like you may suggest.
To suggest that gay rights mean a reversion to those old times is just plain pathetic. It shows you are nothing but a hollow man with no argument - just a hater who talks shit.

LOL. Go back a few hundred years and you will find incest and beastiality were much more prelevant. Yet back then, they were lynching gays. According to your own logic, lynching gays and stamping down on gay rights would mean beastiality and incest would become more rampant!!!
I suggest that you study the weakness of your own argument before spouting more crap.
Re: Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by xTheorist(m): 2:58pm On May 05, 2009
Intellectual and logical discussions are open to extreme views. When you introduce pre-conceived ideas and customary beliefs into it then you create bias. Innovation and creativity require that you delete old ideas and contemplate theories for what possibilities exist in human interaction and what policies should be formulated to respond to that. It's a proactive way of looking at things. This is why academic institutions that encourage openess are also the same ones that produce society leaders. As much as Ahmadinejjad is hated in America, a University did not censor or bar his views from the public. I am an intellectual, I am a theorist and I have written views and opinions that both of you combined can never have the capability to produce. I say this because you are limited in your mind capacity to contemplate outside of concepts that you are familar and comfortable in. You should step out if you are interested in influencing society. This is why I recommend to you that you update yourself. It is no joke, you need to read more books on policies and social movements. You are smart, you are articulate but you are by no means an intellect. Good command of english language does not equate to high intellect. I know of many people that can write speech for Obama but lack the aptitude to brainstorm on strategies and policies, they are intimidated by the subject. I place you two in same category.

I am waiting for some powerful brains to engage me on the discussion, not people with truncated and half-developed brains.

Are you sure this x_theorist is not Negro Nuts' reincarnate?
Re: Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by xTheorist(m): 3:08pm On May 05, 2009
Negro and I share similar beliefs. Another person with such openess is Huxley. Huxley though stays put in religion. I have often told Negro that he is a theorist and he continues to dispute that, preferring instead to call himself an ideologue. But no, this is not Negro. I know Negro and he knows me. In fact, in blog circles people often mistake him for me or me for him, like you just did.
Re: Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by xTheorist(m): 3:47pm On May 05, 2009
Hey pal, look what I found!

This idiot has been watching the Obama Deception documentary. Bloody conspiracy theorists.

The fact that you do possess some perspicuity of language only proves how intrinsically stupid you are. You are an educated buffoon lacking in any perspicacity. After initially accusing Obama of being a muslim, you are now launching some inane diatribe about Obama being in the pocket of the 'controllers of capitalism'. These two allegations are incongruous with each other and are either symptoms of conspiracy theorism or signs of mental and logical instability on your part. If you keep jumping from pillar to post, lacking any lucidity in your postulations, you will have to wear the cap that fits - that of a conspiracy theorist. We all know who controls the world, but what does that have to do with Obama being a muslim and kissing a ring?

Seems you have suspicions with conspiracy theories. Now I see why you said I am Negro. Much as I like him, Negro is a fanatic and is hung up in the cloud but if you cut out his bullshit he presents very substantial and insightful topics. I am same way but my feet are planted on the ground. Do not. A well intended message can be screwed up by bad presentation. Sometimes a bad presentation can be well received. I am a conspiracy theorist and I guarantee you will enjoy my posts and theories on subject matters.
Re: Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by Ibime(m): 4:15pm On May 05, 2009

Re: Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by xTheorist(m): 5:11pm On May 05, 2009
I will if I see him. I see he has found religion and now advocates for Ifa. Huxley on the other hand may never find God. Bunch of looneys!

LMAO. You? An intellectual? Try structuring a sentence properly and adding a bit of logic to your theories. I've seen Yahoo boys with higher intellectual capacities.

Your ignorance is only matched by your arrogance, you cretin.

The quote below just goes to show what a buffoon you are:

Innovation and creativity require that you delete old ideas and contemplate theories for what possibilities exist in human interaction and what policies should be formulated to respond to that.

Believe it or not, there are many "old ideas" that are rock solid in their construction. To "delete" them and try to formulate a crackpot theory purely for the sake of it is peurile idiocy. To then justify those deluded theories by stating that their novelty gives them credence is totally ridiculous.

I've seen turds floating in a toilet bowl which could lay claim to being more intellectual than yourself.
Re: Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by xTheorist(m): 4:23am On May 06, 2009

What is wrong with you? This is a theory, not a claim of credibility. They are untested ideas, nothing more than that. Why all these panic and huffing and puffing over simple issue? I did not ask for ethical or moral argument, I am inviting logical insights. Why are you humiliating your dignity over a theoretical thought? Wow!
Re: Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by Bastage: 10:04am On May 06, 2009
LMAO.

Yet again you make absolutely no sense and your claims are a contradiction to the words you have already written.

As an "intellectual" maybe you should go and learn about the differences between theoretical/speculative statements and evaluative/factual statements and their use in the English language. Whilst you're there, maybe you can attend to your comprehension and grammar skills.

Once you've got the basic grasp of those fundamentals, then perhaps you can come back and amaze us all with your "intellectualism".
Somehow, I sincerely doubt it though.  grin

Apply your proficiency in english language to advance thoughts and progress, not to show off your peacock feathers. I will remind you again not to humilate your dignity. Don't waste your time studying dictionary so you can come online to parade colorful words. Spend time reading on social policies that impact your lifestyle. Understand your relationship with the government and how legal actions authorized by the government impact your well being or lack of. Humble your attitude and your manners and put the dictionary down.

Im here to relate and enjoy the communal feeling of simple human interaction. If I want to fight you or Bastage, a virtual forum is the wrong way to do it. I cant throw a knuckle punch at you here for effective damage to your lips. I can use words but their effect will not satisfy me, so its a waste of effort. There has been no debate! This has been nothing but accusations from you both. Is that what you call debate, cussing and using vulgar words? So if you want to challenge me to fight, do it the proper way and if you want to debate me, do it the proper way also.

Your post will suggest you are far from wanting to enjoy a communal feeling - Remember your other threads have a warning of some kind in the front.

If you want human interaction, perhaps you should actually socialise? Instead of posting half baked jargons? Just a thought.

There isn't a fight here, more or less a debate. Only that you won't agree with it because your flaws and non-sense statements have been pointed at you.

What vulgar words have I used against you? Are you quick to label anyone who points out the flaws in your statement? Or do you not see that your posts are nothing but condescending like I mentioned before? You are quick to claim people lack intelligence, when ironically it is obvious that you can do with a bit of "educationing".

I am more than happy to debate with you. If only you will stop trying to be this[i] uber[/i] intelligent guy, when clearly you aint. Be who you are. Construct your views and points well and see if the response you want wont follow.

You know, I read your other thread and I decided against replying - not because of your opening lines- but because as a someone working in a medical field, half of what you presented in there is so inaccurate, and the fact that you come across as a"conspiracy theorist", it wont be worth my time actually typing out a reply to you. smiley

I do not know you, but I can only judge you on the manner of your posting. So far, you have just made me feel I should ignore you more am afraid.
Re: Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by xTheorist(m): 4:44pm On May 06, 2009
Now this is a good feedback, far removed from your previous nagging and accusations. What I presented in both posts are thoughts and they are open to contention. On the 1 post, I am saying that certain changes in the society (man-man marriage) have created the possibility that other similar patterns will evolve and can be expected to surface as challenges that may or may not result in a legal victory for the proponents of anti-culture movements. How is it wrong for me to suggest that? On 2, there are two camps; one believes that HIV/AIDS in Africa was a deliberate and wrongful act targeted at Africa, the other camp says no, it is not, it is a disease that afflicts Africa because of our promiscous nature and poverty conditions. It is open to debate. How am I wrong in bringing it here for discussion?
Re: Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by xTheorist(m): 4:54pm On May 06, 2009
I must add that as educated people, we need to recognize that the proper way to shut down opposing views is through healthy and informed debates, not by shouting the opponent down with noisy but meaningless vulgar words. If there is merit in your view to counter the original post then it should be shared. Accusations will only escalate emotional responses and divert away from logical and valuable interaction.
Re: Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by Bastage: 5:49pm On May 06, 2009
Sorry. You don't set the rules for any debate.
If you post crap, you get rebuttal - it's as simple as that.
And if you refuse to acknowledge that rebuttal and instead go on a course of "I'm smarter than you", then expect to get treated like an asshole. wink

Wassup asshole I kept wondering who this person was, , but then I went in your profile and saw the address. What the hell are you doing here konThe? You have lost your gaddem mind.

I got something that you need to read. Jessica have the original copy of the de-classified document, get from her. DHS! Napolitano should be fired!! I cant believe what the furc-k they are setting up but it quickly dawned on them so they hurriedly took the document off internet and re-classified it.

What brought you in here? There is nothing here appealing fr your brain, , beside the bullshit, you are not gonna get the mental feed, I can tell you that. The responses you got here already is the pattern and a testimony. You are dealing with a bunch of northbound asses with their heads facing southward, ,, it will not make a difference how much information you share their vision is as far as the length of their nose stretch in front of the face.

There are handful noble and wise ones with heads like yours, , they started here just like this and after a while gave up and stood back away from the asses' snorts, , careful not to be touched by the stain of the vulgar one. These are the ones who have gone through the surgery to have the NEPA lightbulb in their skull removed. They replaced it with a perpetually lit bulb, , with it they see far ahead of their location and can contemplate events yet to arrive.

, , then you have the asses that still carry that NEPA bulb around in their skull, their state is of perpetual darkness, , they have no clue that they are in darkness though. While their liberties are steadily been snatched from them they gallivant and trot about in their mastery of the english lexicon. What an ass you say! Give them five clues to a problem and they will come back and tell you your comma is misplaced, , they will never connect the dot and solve that problem, , beyond the lexicon they know nothing else, , blind, deaf and dumb!

konThe, , next time you call me a fanatic I will lay siege at your doorstep with a 9,, lmao! Get your behind outta here and go do something more productive than chatting with asses. Beside, ,, looking forward to read your view on document.

Negro throws Theorist under the bus!

Hey Ibime, long time,, hello back to you! What's going on buddy Yeah, Theorist is a good fella, I have learnt a lot listening to him and in fact you are right we have similar styles and that's because he was, ,, and still is my teacher.
Re: Thoughts To Ponder - 1 by Bastage: 10:20am On May 07, 2009
OOOOOOOOOOOOOO It's all one big conspiracy.

Save me from the CIA, the Loch Ness Monster and the Illuminati.
They're pissed at me because I found out that they faked the Moon Landings and shot JFK.
They'll probably come after me with a Death Ray that they built at Area51 and sell my organs to Grey Aliens.

LOL. You know why they call them Conspiracy theories? Because they're a con. The whole meaning of a conspiracy theory is that it can't be proven by factual evidence. Yet you'll see assholes running around, rabidly proclaiming that they are totally correct and you're an idiot for not believing them even though they cannot prove a word that they're saying - words that the majority of time have just been lifted from the net without them even bothering to do any research for themselves as to checking the veracity.

You are dealing with a bunch of northbound asses with their heads facing southward.

Northbound with heads facing Southward is far, far better than Northbound with one's head pointing up one's own asshole.
