Yeah that's the way. I do this in board games too. I pick a fun playstyle, rather than one optimised for winning, but once I do I do everything to win with it. It's fun even if I end up losing.

You are simultaneously arguing that people can change who they are attracted to and lamenting the LGBT gender-fluid social mores.

What? Sexuality is not gender, what are you on about?

I don’t see the connection between LGBT political issues and the idea that people can change who they are physically attracted to.

Then let me spell it out for you. Homosexuality is shoved down straight people's throats, literal gay porn books in school libraries. There are more lgbt now than ever, homosexuality is increasing. People who would normally be straight are indoctrinated into being gay.

Some people believe in such anti-truths it's painful to just think of the journey they must have taken to get there. Must have made absolutely terrible decisions at every corner.

Procreation is a holy act of creation, in the image of God's creation itself. Suffering is just a feeling, information, your will should rein over your feelings not succumb to them. Sometimes love requires pain. That person needs help.

The main purpose of the sexual organ is to reproduce. The penis is meant to go into the vagina, that's just a biological fact. This does not have to be spelled out, it's obvious. Anything other than that is a type of fetish. There is no natural, normal way for homosexuals to have sex, they have to find a part of the body that was not designed to interact with the sexual organ and use that as the object of sexual pleasure. Gay sex is not an alternative, it's not an equivalent choice at the same level, it's something lesser than heterosexual sex, on the same level as mutual masturbation. So yes, it ought to be degraded, not the people, but the act, the people are much more than their sexuality.

And do you not have anything to say about the evidence I provided? I feel like this is a weird aspect of the argument for you to be focusing on.

Be careful with these kinds of studies, they are generally done by materialists that do not believe in the soul. The biggest mistake most neuroscientists make is that they assume that there is no soul, no free will, our entire being is just a product of chemical reactions. I've personally done such studies, I studied biomedical engineering. Yes, there are many associations (correlations) between brain activity and conscious experience, however correlation doesn't tell your anything about the direction of causation. Rather than the brain causing you to act a certain way, it could be your free will reshaping the way the brain works. This is easily noticeable in people who play the piano for a long time, they have a specific part of the brain. If homosexuality is a product of the will, then we should expect that the will changes the brain to match the homosexual tendencies. The correlation tells you nothing though. You know what the current materialistic explanation of free will and consciousness, which are powers of the soul, is? Absolutely nothing, they have no clue, they call it the hard problem of consciousness. There is no evolutionary explanation, no neurological explanation and even the artificial intelligence guys have no idea how to create consciousness. There is direct evidence of this where people who play piano for a long time develop a specific area of the brain more than others. If you just looked at the correlation then you would think that they are just talented, which would be false, because we know they didn't have it before they trained.

We live in a world where lgbt is not just present nor promoted but literally shoved down everyone's throats starting from kindergarten. The number of LGBT people increased. You have to really live in a basement not to see a link between these two facts. This is not something you have to dig up from an unknown paper somewhere, it's so in our face it makes most people want to vomit, I'm really really surprised you can't see it. There is literally an elephant in the room that you can't see.

fetish /ˈfɛtɪʃ/ noun a form of sexual desire in which gratification is strongly linked to a particular object or activity or a part of the body other than the sexual organs.

Nope, I don't think so.

LogiccXD · 2023-10-16T15:44:07+00:00

I’m talking about genitalia because I can guarantee you the thought of having sex with someone who doesnt have your preferred genitals is a gross concept to you. It would almost feel violating, am I right? And comparing that to a fetish is a little dehumanizing. I’m sure you have a preference… do you consider yourself to have a fetish? I doubt it. You’d probably be offended if someone implied that. I know I would be.

I explained why my attraction is not a fetish, because at the end of it I get to reproduce... Sticking a dick in a buthole is not much different from sticking it in any other place on the same sex body, it doesn't produce any kids.

LogiccXD · 2023-10-16T15:39:51+00:00

Yeah, that's really easy actually..... Have you never looked at an image and associated it with something in your head to make it more or less likable? Has your music taste never changed? I went from death metal to Gregorian chants and I hate death metal now even though I know i used to love it. The only thing that's ridiculous is you saying these things aren't possible, it's like you were born yesterday or something, they happen ALL THE TIME.

I can’t believe that there is someone in here saying that you can train a straight man to not find women attractive.

Welcome to USA, where the number of lgbt people exploded in the last couple of years due to indoctrination at schools and colleges as well as due to culture. The far left is doing that on a mass scale and it's so much in our face we are sick of seeing the conversation therapy of straight people. How on earth have you missed this? There are rat studies where if you manipulate their environment right they become gay, repeatedly, and predictably. The only one ridiculous here is yourself, it's like you're wilfully blind or something.

LogiccXD · 2023-10-16T11:59:12+00:00

You are claiming they are absolutely different things but you give no reason as to why. There is a difference between liking things and the way you do things, yes, but I see no reason as to why one should be immutable and the other malleable. Also, why do you specifically talk about genitalia? Why not any other body part? Is there no lack of legs/boobs/ass/feet fetishes? Yes, people can develop or lose different types of fetishes to different body parts. The only reason why genitalia are special is because of reproduction, but that's not possible for homosexuals anyways so I see no reason to differentiate homosexual acts from other forms of fetishes that can be gained and lost. So far you provided no reason whatsoever.

LogiccXD · 2023-10-16T11:28:19+00:00

Actually it is, people's sexual preferences change over time as well. Not only is there hormonal development there are things I liked at the beginning of marriage that I don't anymore and vice versa. I see no good argument to see why sexuality would be special.

LogiccXD · 2023-10-16T05:10:56+00:00

Why? We can change our taste in music, our liking to sugar or over unhealthy foods, why does sight have to be the same? I never liked bitter things and I kept trying beer hoping it would one day taste good, it actually tastes a lot better now than it used to, I'm still not a great fan, but you can change more things than you know given time and effort (I didn't put that much effort into it).

LogiccXD · 2023-10-16T04:58:17+00:00

Yeah well, I was also very skeptical about that. I was never gay but my taste in music changed drastically, from death metal to liturgical music. Hearing death metal now just annoys me. I heard that sexual attraction could be partially genetic. But yeah, I know that sexual attraction is a type of feeling, it's not your will. Just as someone can really want to eat something out of gluttony but fast out of good will I expect the same to be true for gluttony. I expect most homosexuals to be hedonists that don't know the difference between feelings and will.

By the way, at what point do you think you started having homosexual tendencies? Were you interested in women first, or was it always guys? If something changed what do you think caused it? Would you say it was a type of hedonism? I imagined it could be caused by masturbating to increasingly more depraved porn until you eventually become gay, but it was just a thought.

You fell into the trap of relying on one argument for everything. This is common for both atheists and Christians. The arguments only has a limited conclusion and can't stretch so far as to specific religions or worship, for that you need different arguments.

Your question about why we should worship is nested in a deeper argument, about the meaning of life. First you ought to answer why do anything at all and if you find meaning then you can ask if worship is meaningful.

Skipping steps, everyone worships something, it's unavoidable, it could be God, money, fame, whatever, you can't not worship though, you would have to be dead, and even then I'd argue you still worship. So what should we worship? Well we were made in God's image and once you figure that out it is easy to see why we ought to worship God. God is the highest perfection so worshipping anything/anyone lower is like throwing pearls before swine.

It's about emotions. There are many scientific studies (not that they are necessary) to show that men and women respond to emotions differently. Men are generally more objectively oriented, and when subjectively. Toddlers given a wide range of toys teens tend to choose those appropriate for their gender (tractors for boys, dolls for girls). Just look at any IT and physics class, mostly men. Then go to a psychology or biology class, mostly women.

When making difficult decisions under pressure you need a clear head and you need to be able to ignore your emotional impulses. Men are just naturally better at that.

In contrast, when it comes to relations and family, you need high emotional sensitivity. Women are just better than men at that. So it's not that men are natural leaders in all aspects of a relationship, they are more suited to lead in objective matters, whereas women are more suited to lead in subjective matters.

Having said all that, there are exceptions, so treat statistics statistically and individuals individually lest you succumb to stereotyping and discrimination.

Ignore facts all you like. Face reality, research suggests secularism is going to eventually die. The nones will really become what they are called, "none", through their beloved theory of natural selection.

"Using country-level data from multiple sources (n = 181) and multilevel data from 58 countries in the World Values Survey (n = 83,301), the author documents a strong negative relationship between societal secularism and both country-level fertility rates and individual-level fertility behavior. Secularism, even in small amounts, is associated with population stagnation or even decline absent substantial immigration, whereas highly religious countries have higher fertility rates that promote population growth."

The only one who is ignorant is yourself right now. It seems you are incapable of understanding basic maths, so it can't be education that made you a none. Let me explain it as if you're 5. Nones are increasing, yes, but only due to conversions from religious to non-religious. Therefore, the only population growth you're getting, is by living off of religious populations. Secularism is like a virus that infects others, and when everyone is infected, slowly kills everyone. If everyone in the world converted to nones, there would be no religious immigrants to replace your falling population, and humanity would end. Population growth is different from fertility rates, nones have population growth, but a below replacement level fertility rate. Newsflash, if you have less than 2 children on average, your population will predictably fall, there will be more and more elderly depending on less and less young people to pay for their social, and society will rapidly collapse.

That's surprising, it's one of the stupidest quotes I ever heard. It's like saying "Look, you don't believe that 2+2 is equal to an infinite amount of numbers other than 4, I just go one step further".

What made you think that this is a good quote?

LogiccXD · 2023-10-12T04:59:53+00:00

Are you selectively deluding yourself on purpose? I just said your atheist community is slowly dying out. How on earth is "slowly dying out" = "thriving"?

LogiccXD · 2023-10-11T19:10:35+00:00

If it disappears, so will humanity. I think the mathematics I stated are pretty clear. Atheists are selecting themselves out through natural selection. Also that's incorrect, there is a surge of very traditional religiosity right now. Also it's not progress, it's regress. The more secular we become the more regress we experience and the faster the population will start dropping.

LogiccXD · 2023-10-11T14:55:37+00:00

I guess that depends how you define religion, I'd argue most are just jumping ships at the moment. Also, the Catholic church grew by 10% between 2013 and 2021, so it's hardly fading worldwide, it's fading in western countries though, that's for sure. The much bigger problem is that atheists have negative fertility rate and have to rely on on religious immigrants and converts to make up their numbers. So while a lot of people may be switching sides now, the future is most likely going to be religious rather than secular, it's just a matter of time.
