There was a letter in the paper today that I got a real chuckle out of. It basically went, homosexuality is bad, sex addition does this that and the other things, so avoid homosexuality, stay godly. I looked at that and was like hmm, this is almost like saying, cola is bad, rum contains alcohol, which causes car crashes, so avoid cola. As much as people seem to go for rum and coke, we still aren’t talking about the same thing.
It just seems like arguments against homosexuality start off with one subject, explain why something else is bad or incorrect, then expect the reader to assume that they’re really just the same thing. It’s like there’s a propaganda machine skewing people’s preception of the world. Groups they wish to demonize become known only as most undesireable characteristics of the most extreme members and after being fed lies so many times, they can’t see the real world.
I can say almost the same thing about arguments against evolution. Nobody seems to argue against evolution, they seem to argue against some other theory, which they call evolution but nobody else does.
