Any response? Particularly as you seem so intent on comparing the two religions for some reason as if they can't be judged individually.

Told you.

Is religious doctrine a factor in Pakistani grooming gangs and Islamic terrorist attacks? Yes or no. (prediction: you won't answer.)

That criticism of Islamic scripture is just a perverted interpretation.

Yep that was my point. Just inventing things to make themselves stand out. The only other thing it could be is because bisexual is binary and they believe in the story about 5000 other genders.

Since when has part of being a bisexual been about making a definitive decision about when you want c*ck or m*nge on any given day?

So a slutty bisexual then.

Maverick was back in the day.

So you aren't fussed if it's men or women. That's just bisexual then.

It's a bit like that lib dem mp who is pansexual. Seems people are just inventing words now to make themselves seem special.

Surely if you think it's harmful and has a negative impact then by definition you are anti it?

Lol. It's either that or a weekend in Maidstone.

Indeed which is why it was idiotic for the Democrats to push for an impeachment. Its all a load of political game paying in any event and just like brexit it will be decided at the polls eventually.

Meh it's Sam Wallace from the telegraph. He's just one of those journalists who writes about saints all the time but it's just made up in his head and invented stories. He's a fantasist.

Innocent until proven guilty soggy, we know you have an unusual view on that sort of thing given your history with Ched Evans and Boycott.

How many Christian extremists are currently running people down in the UK, beheading people and blowing themselves up and pointing to specific verses from their holy book which explicitly call for violence when they do it? How many ex Christians receive death and rape threats for making fun of god or for simply stating they have left the religion? How many Christians in the UK are gang raping young women and specifically point to verses in the bible and their opinion of these women as unbelievers as their justification?

Lol. Who is going to tell him?

I don't think that should happen. I'd support overriding parents' wishes in that scenario. It's not really a comparable problem on the same scale though and it's something that could easily be solved with a law change.

He's even said himself that society has progressed to a point that he feels able to be public about how he feels. To most normal people that would be a sign that society has improved but for those who for some reason like to view society as a hellhole, it's evidence apparently that society is terrible and homophobic.

A man marrying a woman and then being with them for decades without telling her that he is gay is a lie by omission.

Hold on are you suggesting it's societies fault that he decided to make this announcement of his own accord? How should it have worked do you think? Should he have just left his wife and shacked up with a man and never addressed it? Considering he is on TV almost daily don't you think that would have been a bit odd?

And as I already said, if we develop a problem where we have spates of child killings in the UK where extremist Christians murder their children for disobedience and use bible verses to justify their actions then I would be just as critical and calling for similar action from churches.

What gives you the right as an unbeliever to proclaim one interpretation as a perversion over another interpretation? Many Muslims would consider more moderate versions of Islam to be the perversion. You are well aware that I could pull up a whole host of qaranic verses that explicitly call for violence, how is that a perversion? I agree though, we should do more to remove the extremism and that would include looking at Saudi influence. With regards to your sentence about "hate" if you're talking about me, the only hate I have in this topic is for extremist Islam which has resulted in a number of terrible things happening. It should go without saying but there really is no problem with moderates other than there's a debate to be had about how many actually are moderate when you consider views on things like gay marriage for example.

Indeed. Passages from their holy book give them all the justification they need. I mean the testimony from some of the Rotherham rape victims says that some of these islamists have been quoting passages whilst raping their largely white working class victims. Saying its largely because of bombing in the middle east is just another excuse from some more bashing of the west when the reality is that this sort of behaviour that is unacceptable in our culture would be happening regardless.

It's a pretty big deal to his wife of 27 years and his children.
