Mariner said:around 1800 years ago convinces so many people here that homosexuality is "wrong" and that the theory of evolution should be rejected. Do you ever ask yourselves whether this makes sense?
I can certainly agree that ancient wisdom can be profound. After all, the first Hindu stories are now being dated to 6000 years ago. But ancient wisdom can also be totally wrong. Nearly everyone 1800 years ago (except a few Hindus and a few Greeks) thought the world was flat and sat at the center of the universe.
Open your minds, people. Your dogmatic acceptance of the ideas of ancient people might be blinding you to reality. Dogmatism about spiritual or ethical truths makes sense. Dogmatism about social or scientific truths doesn't.
Mariner.
I don't have to look very far back into history to see the disaster homosexuality has wrought upon American society, Mariner. What I've witnessed in my lifetime is sufficient for me.
You don't have to look back very far either - nothing like 6000 years. You need only go back a few posts in this very thread.
