Anthropologically makes no sense to fear homosexuals

[Political Junky]

No, not agreeing with it, even thinking its disgusting I have no issue with, its trying to prevent them from having freedoms, which tends to be based around some sort of fear that "they will turn our kids gay and make them think its acceptable. And if you paid attention to the context, it has nothing to do with what you claim above that it was some old standard the writers were screaming homophobe, they were talking about the possibility of a straight man killing a gay man, talking about potential suspects of the gay man's death, hence why she mentioned that

WTF are you babbling about?

If you paid attention to the context you'd realize Bones has no kids, and was being "objective." Her comment had more than one dimension, and the political one was to elevate the controversy that gays are somehow horribly, erroneously, and consistantly maligned by heterosexual bullies ONLY because they are misunderstood and feared.

If you were correct then Bone's line would have been:

Anthropologically makes no sense to murder homosexuals, since they are taking themselves out of the pool for competition with a mate.

Bones has a son.
nevermind. You meant the other Bones.

No, Bones' partner has a son.

QUESTION: Is Bones partner's son a QUEER.

Just wondering if perversion is hereditary ?

REASON FOR QUESTION: Just hope that there isn't another pathetically disgusting Biker/Midget in the making.

Kinda think there isn't. That insane little bugger is too fucking ugly to have had any woman have anything to do with the disgusting pathetic fart.

Unless.......it was his mommy.

hahahahahahahaha!! The bible is a history of the US. lol!!

You need a better source than that if you are going to make the claims you have about American history.

Quit being so dishonest....everyone knows that the Bible is only a story about the times before, during and after Christ's life. Anyone with the literacy of a 3rd grader can read the story of Sodom and Gommora. These teachings have been instilled in nearly every Judeao/Christian faith since it's inception....don't play games...you know good and well what I'm talking about.

You're looking to pick a fight...I'm just stating facts...I could care less what homosexuals do in their own homes or with reference to their social lives....religious people see it differently...so deal with it. When you progressives have completely eliminated religion from America then maybe after a generation or so of brainwashing you can get your agenda passed...right now there are just too many people against the things they want.

Apparently, you don't have the literacy of a 3rd grader then Pansy The Weak.............

The Sin of Sodom

Then there is the story of the destruction of the city of Sodom, (Genesis 18:16-19:29). Sodom has given its name to the now somewhat quaint-sounding term 'Sodomy', which originally meant a specific male homosexual sex act. Eventually it was expanded to mean any form of sexual expression which happened to be illegal, including things that married heterosexual couples do every day.

However, a close reading reveals the name to be a bit of a misnomer. To start off, Sodom is described simply as a 'wicked' place. Lot, Abraham's nephew, goes to live there to see if even one righteous person can be found there. The sexual theme starts when two disguised angels visit Lot. A mob, described as consisting of the men of the city, 'both young and old', attacks Lot's house and demands that Lot allow them to 'know' (in the language of the KJV) the two men. To 'know' is, of course, the famous KJV circumlocution for having sexual intercourse.

The next passage bears closer examination. Lot (Gen 19:8) asks the mob to 'do' his two virgin daughters instead, but not the two guests, 'for ... they came under the shadow of my roof.' The rest of the story is well-known: divine wrath ensues, the mob is blinded, the cities of the plain are destroyed by fire and brimstone while Lot and his family flee, Lot's wife is turned to a pillar of salt because she looks back, and only Lot and his daughters escape. In an often ignored coda to this story, Lot's daughters have incest with him by getting him intoxicated, (Gen 19:31), presumably to repopulate the country; a similar motif is found in the story of Noah. As in other Biblical narratives, even the heroes end up committing horrendous sins, driven by circumstances. But many ignore the entire context of the story in the rush to justify their own bigotry.

The sin of the city of Sodom was the originally considered to be the violation of the rights of Lot's guests. Defining the 'sin of Sodom' to be male homosexuality was a later interpretation, which was made by medieval Jewish and Christian writers, as a reaction to Pagan acceptance of homosexuality. Near Eastern hospitality, to this day, implies a responsibility to protect guests under one's roof. The fact that Lot was ready to make a huge sacrifice by offering up his virgin daughters to the mob instead of his guests underlines this.

There is abundant Haggadah, ancient Jewish folklore, which tells of the cruelty of Sodom to strangers, and their mistreatment of the poor and homeless. Among other stories, travelers are given gold but not food; when they starve to death, everything is stolen including the gold and the clothes off their backs, and their bodies are left to rot. One of Lot's unfortunate daughters is burned to death for the crime of giving a starving man food. Another woman who assists a poor man is smeared with honey and left to be stung to death by bees. Some of these stories are suffused with dark comedic twists. A poor man is assaulted and robbed. Eliezar, a servant of Abraham, is hit on the head when he intervenes. A judge rules that he must pay his assailant for medical treatment! (Bleeding was considered a surgical procedure). Eliezar then hits the judge on the head, drawing blood, and tells the judge to pay his fine. See Ginzburg's Legends of the Jews and Polano's The Talmud: Selections, for many more stories along the same lines. After reading these, I guarantee you'll be rooting for the Lord to rain down the brimstone on the cities of the plain...

There are also numerous Biblical passages warning about mistreating strangers, (with the story of Lot being implied), for instance this one in the NT: "Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares." [Heb. 13:2]

Between the original concept of a violation of the law of hospitality and the medieval focus on a particular sexual act, there is an intermediate stage where Sodom was criticized for other reasons entirely. Where Sodom is mentioned in later books of the Tanach and in the New Testament, it is used as an example of a city which was corrupted by luxury, lacking in values such as charity and humility. Nowhere is this made clearer than in Ezekiel 16:48-50, where Ezekiel, speaking for 'the Lord God', enumerates the sins of Sodom: "Saith the Lord GOD...Behold, this was the iniquity of ... Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness ... neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. And they were haughty and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good".

Note that in this context 'abomination' means human sacrifice and idol worship, not shared tax breaks for long-term same-sex couples, or sexual practices you can see on cable after 10 o'clock. Furthermore, 'abomination' is at the end of the laundry list. The primary sin of Sodom, by this account, was that their society was materialistic, greedy and uncharitable. Social and economic justice is a thread that runs through the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament alike, and it is not difficult to extrapolate this to modern struggles for equality, such as those of LGBT people. When governmental and religious institutions and their leaders perpetuate oppression, it would not be farfetched to say that they are committing the actual sin of Sodom.

LGBT Texts

Glad to help educate the ignorant.

Do you want to explain how Leviticus is "misinterpreted" when it states that if a "man" lies with another "man", as a woman, his life is FORFEIT? Or how about the times that Yeshua teaches that lewd and perverse behavior is sinful?

So many "anti-Christians" can find absolutely no evil in the 10 Commandments, but when it is pointed out that breaking the Commandments is "sinful" or "evil" or "wrong", want to disagree and call those that see the "wisdom", hateful and bigoted. Why don't you demonstrate the "goodness" homosexual acts bring? And please don't go into the "feel good" sermon, heroin addicts can use that reason for doing their temptations too.

No, it just makes sense and these shows don't just make shit up, there is facts in there, unless they are trying to embellish for TV, but a lot of the show is fact based. and where did I say it was true. why do people like making shit up, just to be dicks?

"These shows don't just make shit up." That's the best line I've heard in ages.

Fiction - Definition and More from the Merriam-Webster Dictionary

Man some of you just complete and utter assholes. THe science in their isn't made up. fucking a, stop being such dicks!

So rather than creating some sort of coherent logical argument, you resort to the "Nah ah! Doody face" tactic

Again, they are not sinning or partaking in it, so why care what other's do? Religions is a bullshit reason for it. they need to mind their own business and worry about themselves and not what others do and believe

Why care what others do? Oh yeah, because the behavior of others effects the world around them and you know, we actually care about people.

Why is it the so called compassionate are the ones who yell the loudest when people act the way they are claiming they want people to act?

I knew you couldn't find any source to back up your claims that Americans where all religious at one time and al considered homosexuality to be an abomination.

No, of course we couldn't. The gay rights movement has just spent the last 30+ years fighting to get sodomy decriminalized because everyone loved the idea of gay sex and so passed laws to prevent it from happening.

No, they loved it oh so much.

 

[Avatar4321]

Pure fantasy on your part.

Bullshit. Read the bible.

Why should we? Is it a requirement in this country to believe what that book says?

No. But it seems pretty foolish to not learn as much as you can about everything.

Heard Bones say it on the show Bones and thought it was great.

Anthropologically makes no sense to fear homosexuals, since they are taking themselves out of the pool for competition with a mate.

So why the fear from the homophobes? REally makes no difference to them if people are gay, plus, it does limit competition for a mate.

Fear is what the Republican Party is all about.

Fear of gay people.

Fear of brown people.

Fear of black people.

Fear of anyone that is different than they are.

I read plenty books thank you, and there is real science in there. Maybe cause I am a scientist I'm smart enough to realize the real science from the fiction.

To deny there is real science in shows like that, like ER, CSI, etc sounds pretty moronic to me

Since I have to deal with forensics everyday in my cases, I have to say, you are a complete idiot if you think that shows like ER, CSI, or Bones are anything but fictional melodramas presenting the public with a completely inaccurate view of real science. Heck, Ive had classes from actual experts in those fields who hate the shows specifically because they are so inaccurate and decieve people who later enter those fields to find it is nothing what tv told them it was.

That's the same reason i seriously dislike legal dramas like Law and Order. I cant suspend disbelief enough to ignore how inaccurate they are.

Ah, but because I know how to and will not hesitate to use my guns is one reason why I and some of my neighbors have no fear. But don't worry i would never use my guns to protect the property of someone who is anti gun........

A few comments about this new phenomenom that has descended on us ...... "Dr" Gregg.

First, he caught me by surprise. It's like some disheveled and demented fool that comes bursting into a village beating a drum and making a damn fool of himself.

Obviously this bozo ain't no "DR".

And, OBVIOUSLY he fancies himself as some sort of a philosopher.

No doubt he is a 1/2 educated CRAZED drop-out that is a doper and/or alchoholic to boot.

One immediately realizes that one can't take this idiot seriously. Not only that, given some time during his marxist type, and/or at least LIEberal-type, ejaculations he begins to stumble on his own words, and becomes incoherent. My guess is at that time he is either doped up.....or falling down drunk.

Either way this fool has a malady common to that suffered by the overwhelming majority of the Obamarrhoids on this Forum. This idiot is definitely an Obamarrhoid......and he definitely has diarrhea mouth.

The funniest part of the Republican Fear Machine is that Glenn Beck has all his followers buying gold.

Gold is going to crash, and those loyal Beckheads are all going to lose their money.

I had that episode on DVR- Just watched it tonight!! Excellent line. It's true- it makes no sense that straight men would be concerned about gay men and their lifestyles, since that takes two men off of the competition ring for the straights. I don't know why nobody ever said it this way before. =)
