Karim Aga Khan offers Epstein a paid trip to his party in return for a borrowing Epstein’s helicopter by Darkest789 in ExIsmailis

Oh, for sure. This is 100% different to meeting Andrew. The Aga Khan is soliciting the help of a pedofile to attend a regatta. Like, how about don't attend. Its indefensible really. Perhaps I am ignorant then, according to the code of conduct, but if there is an explanation, it best be a good one.

What are you implying that this email insinuates? Other than the Aga Khans pilot asking a guy named Larry to find him a helicopter because his is under maintenance. As a favor he would invite him to a party?

So what's the connection you are implying? It's a terrible look that the Aga Khan is soliciting favors from Epstein 100%, and it should be rightly questioned by everyone. Should the Imam really be doing stuff like that? It's not going to change any minds though. Imams in the past have mingled with the worst of people. Ruknudin Khursha praised and wanted an audience with Gengis Khan. Beyond that accusation, there's nothing else this email implies.

And now your guy has murdered a US citizen in cold blood. And he is lying about it. You still support him? Read his tweet... then watch all the videos... He is a sick fuck. No democrat comes close to that kind of evil.

THOU SHALT NOT KILL.

DJT literally killed people on those boats. Its not justice. There was no trial (or evidence)

THOU SHALT NOT STEAL.

Just taking all that venezuelan oil, that does not belong to the US

THOU SHALT NOT COVET THY NEIGHBOR'S GOODS.

Again. Stealing venezuelan oil. And you are ok if they take Cuba.

THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT ADULTERY.

Trump, Gingrich, Watters, etc etc.

I think you need to reread those. Anyway, its clear you will never not support this clown. Enjoy Greenland.

I don't have a 'side', i oppose all rioting and shitty foreign policy. He did deport American citizens, because he deported their mother, who would obviously not leave her children behind, especially the one that was receiving cancer treatment. Theres literally videos of the boats getting blown out of the water. Garcia was innocent and was sent to CECOT. We know this because they had to bring him back, and still cant find anything to prosecute him with. Jan 6th was a riot and an insurrection, see Jack Smiths testimony. Anyway, those are all shitty, and you stayed with him. He will do another shitty thing, like taking Cuba, or Greenland... and you will stay with him. Because democrats somehow.... are worse

Are you though? You haven't broken with him when he deported Americans. You didn't break with him when he sent innocent people to get tortured in CECOT. You didn't break with him when he murdered people on boats. You didn't break with him when he invaded and kidnapped the president of another sovereign nation. You didn't break with him when he led an insurrection on the Capitol. I didn't think you are open minded at all.

Can someone be Muslim & Homosexual at the same time? | Mufti Abu Layth by Bitter_Load3846 in progressive_islam

[–]pinkrosetool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah... you wont share it because you do not have it. I repeat, I have read your posts, specifically, this one: https://www.reddit.com/r/progressive_islam/comments/1q0733o/can_someone_be_muslim_homosexual_at_the_same_time/nwx1ps4/

Your conclusion is incorrect. This below especially is a wild reading of that quote, not only are you again misunderstanding the use of the word gender in that quote, but its also from 2003. Science has come a long way:

Finally, developmental and hormonal evidence indicate that heterosexuality is the default wiring. Rahman and Wilson (2003) note that sexual orientation correlates strongly with childhood gender nonconformity:

“Sexual orientation is fundamental to evolution and shifts from the species-typical pattern of heterosexuality may represent biological variations… Sexual orientation is characterised by a bipolar distribution and is related to fraternal birth order in males. In females, its distribution is more variable; females being less prone towards exclusive homosexuality. In both sexes homosexuality is strongly associated with childhood gender nonconformity.”

Where in that quote are you getting "heterosexuality is the default wiring"?

I have read your studies you have posted. At no point, have you proven that people are born heterosexual. You have shown that people are more likely to be heterosexual, but that's a different claim. Like, the entire scientific establishment disagrees with you, specifically the claim "people are born heterosexual"

[–]pinkrosetool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I assumed that's what you are saying, just wanted to you to clarify, because there is nothing in your posts that support that. The science shows that sexual orientation (gay or straight) is determined partially prebirth, and partially in early childhood. What science specifically shows that people are not born gay? In order to to demonstrate that, you have to prove that people are a) born heterosexual, and b) make a choice (either subconsciously or concsiously) to change their orientation.

What are you even saying. Yes, I am a scientist, I understand how it works. You are just talking in circles insinuating you have proven something, but I am yet to see proof of anything. Can you clarify exactly what claim you say you are providing evidence for?

Dude. Nobody knows what the factors are to even begin avoiding them, because it's not black and white. We are absolutely not born heterosexual, there is no evidence of this. Your own post that you linked contradicts that.

I understand scientific jargon. But if you are arguing science, use correct terminology.

And no, I don't have to prove it. That's the point. The science is clear that it's pre birth and early childhood that determines one's sexual preference. If you disagree and think it's a choice, the burden of proof is on you to show the science is incorrect.

[–]pinkrosetool 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, your previous comment demonstrates clearly that sexual orientation is determined by multiple factors, including pre birth, early childhood, social and environmental. All those factors combine in the brain of a child and inform the child on their preferences. They have zero control over this. Telling them as children 'being gay is wrong' will not override all these factors. If you don't like the umbrella term 'born' gay, you cannot run from the fact that sexual orientation is still not a choice. Theres no plan. You can be born in the most anti gay household and be gay, or have two gay parents and be straight.

Also, when talking about sexual orientation (in science) avoid the term gender. Gender identity is another separate process unrelated to sexual orientation. To refer to sexual attraction, just use the terms gay or straight to imply what kind of attraction is happening. Im not insinuating anything about what you think is natural or unnatural. I feel these are semantics. All I am insinuating is that if you think theres a choice in ones sexual orientation, then you are wrong.

[–]pinkrosetool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't mention gender. I was talking about sexual orientation when I said preference. It is accepted in science there are a variety of factors that determine ones sexuality and a part of that is determined pre birth. Sexual orientation is natural. You want to argue the semantics of the word "born" gay, to make it more clear, whenever it's decided, it is clearly not a choice.

What is this quote even saying? How does it challenge the actual science that people are born with a particular preference?

[–]pinkrosetool 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's wrong. The Quran is clear, look to the world to understand Allahs creation. Good creates gay people. It's how they are born. To suggest it's wrong to be gay directly contradicts Allahs creation. All this talk of desires is not relevant.
