Gay animals may be possessed by demons, says Christian thinker
By Exbrony
HOMOSEXUALIST behaviour in the animal kingdom has always been the atheist’s trump card.
Ask any professional atheist, from Greta Christina to Rebecca Watson to self-proclaimed “evolutionary biologists” such as PZ Myers and Jerry Coyne and they will all tell you the same thing: the fact that the beasts of the field try to get their jollies by sodomising their twiddle rompuses up each other’s sin spouts or indulging in idyllic sapphic pastimes amid the riotous wildflowers of alpine meadows means that human same-sex
squelchy business is perfectly natural.
It’s a stumper that has baffled and dismayed Christian thinkers for nearly two millennia. Some,
like Clement of Alexandria, got their vestments in a sweaty, salty wad puzzling over pagan
Greek notions that certain animals — in particular hares, hyenas and weasels — were
inherently homosexualists. (This misconception, as it pertains to hyenas, may have been
exacerbated by the fact that the female hyena happens to have a big, swinging pseudophallus).
Of course we all know about what those old Greeks got up to with their young catamites oiled
up behind the columns of their heathen temples!
But the fact remains that animals of all sorts — dolphins, elephants, bonobos and sheep, to
name a few — get up to saucy same-sex shenanigans that would make even the most
hardened human homosexualist blush. Like with all those gay penguins at all those zoos.
But once more Christian science has ridden to the rescue with a new hypothesis that can
explain away 4000 species’ worth of frenzied backdoor barnyard copulation and urgent furry
scissoring: homosexual animals are possessed by demons.
Former US Navy chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt explains: “It is entirely possible — we know
from the Bible, for example, when Jesus cast the devil out of Legion, he went into a herd of
pigs. So, it is possible for demons or the devil to inhabit or invade animals just the same way
they invade humans, and that causes the sin of lust.”
Over to you: Do you think that minuscule minions of Satan are causing our furry friends to
indulge in animalistic orgies of unprotected outdoor butt play and same-sex sally dabbling? Do you think the Obama administration should make investigation of this possibility a top scientific funding priority?

“Do you think that minuscule minions of Satan are causing our furry friends to
indulge in animalistic orgies of unprotected outdoor butt play and same-sex sally dabbling?”
The answer should be obvious to anyone except for the most closed-minded atheist. A resounding “yes”.

They don’t read the bible very well do they
even i remember Jesus was supposed to have cast out Demons from his Flock and they fled into animals (pigs i believe)hence why jews and christians are not supposed to eat pork.
Now its taken them over 2000 years for Christian scientists to come to the conclusion that demons “possess” the ability to possess both animals and humans.

Ya ducks do it to. And the females also ALLOW them to. A lot of people think that an orgy immedietly means rape, not true. Female animals want a varitey of genes for their offspring so they allow many mates to aggressively breed with them. It looks aggressive because the most aggresive male who is carrying the best genes is fighting off all the lesser genes.

So you’ll claim that animals that are gay aren’t actually natural because they’re possessed by the devil, and yet the concept of animals getting drunk or high off of various plants is completely sane. Well then, to use your own argument against you, what if they were possessed by the devil?

As an animal behaviorist animals preform sexual acts on the sex so that when they aquire a mate they are more likely to achieve orgasm. Also animals of all speices do this. So gay marriage is natural too.
If god didn’t want gay people on earth he wouldn’t have made them gay. And maybe gay people are supposed to teach us patience, afterall isn’t it against the bible to be ignorant towards your fellow man?

“When I go to see a doctor I am a patient, not a client…”
You’re correct. When seeing a doctor, you ARE a patient. When you’re an in-home assistant referring to the person you’re aiding, they are a client. Since the in-home assistant is NOT a doctor, referring to them as a “patient” is incorrect and misleading. While at home, they are provided support by mental health agencies essentially making them a “client”. Many of these poor mentally tortured souls can’t get or hold a job, so the state provides for the cost of their care thus making them a “consumer”.
“That kind of language makes me want to vomit.”
Yes. We know, Gelding. It’s not derogatory enough for THIS site.

When working with your “client” in the public, THEY prefer not to be referred to as a “patient”. (Note I said THEY. Yes, they have the “right” to be referred to the way they choose.) The word “consumer” is only used in notation. Sorry. I can’t change what DHHS says WILL be used. It’s just like not using the phrase “in-home worker” when asked who you are when you’re in public with your “client”. The whole idea behind it was to give the “client” a bit more dignity and help remove the stigma people label them with.
“Do you think doctors should not call their patients patients?”

To this:

“If general and ‘formal’ (corrected) is the new dignified then i don´t know why people still yapp about ethics and morals.”
As far as that goes, they would rather feel like they ARE more “general”. You know, like they’re part of the “general public” and not singled out. Formal would be referring to them by their full name or calling them Mr./Mrs./Ms., whatever fits. They prefer to NOT stand out in a crowd.

Actually, you should change “manufacturers” to “businesses”. Manufacturers is too specialized a term for this discussion. Other than that, that’s exactly what I’ve been saying all along. A mental health agency is a “business”. Therefore, the “consumers” are referred to as “clients”.

“Are you talking about patients with mental illness? In that case, sure.”
Let’s see. I started this winding, “twisting” road with this:
“Hmmm…had a “client” that used to play the same song over and over when his head was out of whack from under-medication. Did you forget yours last night, Mr. Weisz?”
Did you think I was talking about Mr. Weisz’s blood pressure medication? I’m sorry if you mistook “head was out of whack” for “ears were ringing”.
You responded with THIS little piece of horse turd:
“By “client” do you mean a patient of the doctor you lick stamps for?”
From that point on, I have stayed on topic despite your attempts to prove otherwise.
“But for someone who cares so much about the mentally ill you seem pretty cavalier about baiting people online.”
Your point? (Now just who is baiting WHOM, Gelding?)
“Many of the most colorful/deluded/utterly deranged characters on the net are “clients” of people like you.”
Well see, that’s where “rights” come into play. They, like yourself, have a right to access the internet. I’ll agree that some of them, like yourself, really……..shouldn’t.

Mainiac, let me put it this way:
Is it, in the healthcare sector, more dignified to think of the person you work with as a client, even when in direct contact with that person, reducing him to his number in a database with a wallet; or just accept that the person you work with is disabled in one way or another and be cool with it no matter what people think when you are in public, because you love what you do and are proud to be able to help that person?
I can go with the fact that in a big country, not every doctor knows all his patients by name, but this is more of a theoretical thing. About how the way you think gets altered by how you think of the people you work with. Making a personal service an “it´s just business”.

Hellboy,
As a matter of fact, when in public with the “client” the “worker” is not supposed to initiate conversations with others. Should someone the “worker” knows runs into them, they simply let the “client” decide if they want to be introduced or not. Should they decide to participate in the conversation, what the “worker” is referred to is the “client’s” choice. I’ve been called an assistant, a worker, the asshole that drives me around and also in-home support. Either way, it is THEIR choice as to how our “relationship” is defined. When I did that work, I was very proud to be doing what I was doing. It makes me feel honored when I work one-on-one with a “client” who hasn’t been out of the hospital or jail for more than a month at a time and succeeds in making it over a year. I am not hesitant to give praise for their progress. I feel proud when one of my “clients” is successful in maintaining on their own with only a couple of hours of support.
“Making a personal service an “it´s just business”.”
Do NOT lecture me on how to work with the mentally ill, Hellboy. One of the very first things you learn is “empathy not sympathy”. You NEVER establish a “friendship” with a client. That just sets you up for manipulation or higher expectations of you. You don’t get “personally” involved. You establish a good “working relationship”. The majority of them would rather you weren’t there at all. But, if the legal system says they WILL have support, you make it as smooth as possible. You’re being paid for assisting the “client” which comes out of THEIR monthly income from the state. So, as I said, they are “clients”. Do you think that every psychologist or psychiatrist considers each “patient” a friend? You have a lot to learn about how it all works.

Oops. Almost forgot to address the link you provided. Thank you for that, Hellboy.
You gave me a link to a wiki-page about the word “patient”. I stand by my words. Within the first paragraph, you confirmed what I’ve been saying.
“The patient is most often ill or injured and in need of treatment by a physician, advanced practice registered nurse, veterinarian, or other health care provider.”
In-home support workers are NOT health care providers. Don’t confuse in-home health care providers with in-home support workers. They have a bit higher of an education in the “medical” aspect of it.

“HOMOSEXUALIST behaviour in the animal kingdom has always been the atheist’s trump card.” I stopped reading after this blatant lie. The vast majority of my trump cards actually lie in the bible, such as continuity errors, the fact that if anyone actually believed what the bible said they would be forced to go on massive killing sprees, and so on.

“And in the deleting of her comments…”
VERY unprofessional on a forum (or blog, in this case) for the Administrator to “delete” ANYTHING. Most certainly not the entire list of comments by one member. It usually shows that there is something to “hide”. Hmmmm…very odd. Very odd indeed.
“They did not delete the web pages “Attacking her”…”
Well, no. That would pretty much require removing ALL of them.
