Straight Rights
[...]
Thousands of people are mourning the death of Mr Clementi, an 18 year old college student who committed suicide after being taunted about his homosexuality.
I wonder how many people are mourning the deaths of straight people infected with HIV by homosexual men.
Imagine for a moment that you had a twenty eight year old daughter. She is diagnosed with AIDS and tuberculosis and is expected to soon die. Her husband and her two small children, have tested HIV positive. Researching into this, it turns out that when she was 18, your daughter had unprotected sex with an 18 year old boy. That boy unknown to her was HIV positive after having had unprotected anal sex with a man who, unknown to the boy, was HIV positive. Such tragedies can and do happen in America and Europe today.
If we would follow the Torah's commandment to put to death any man who has anal sex with another man, those tradegies could be prevented.

"I wonder how many people are mourning the deaths of straight people infected with HIV by homosexual men."
Not very many, I'd imagine.
If we would follow the Torah's commandment to put to death any man who has anal sex with another man, those tradegies could be prevented.
Or you could just I don't know, explain to people to use a condom. And get tested for STDs, and all the other things I learned in sex ed.
On a side note. Isn't sex before marriage (or more biblical correct with someone you don't spend the rest of you life with) a sin, which your daughter commited.
No. If we taught our little boys to put on their rubbers before they ventured into anyplace wet, such "tradegies" could be prevented. Your own example postulates three cases of heterosexual transmission to one homosexual, in case you didn't notice.
"Her husband and her two small children, have tested HIV positive."
Given that the kids usually get HIV through breastfeeding or a transfusion, and that it is INCREDIBLY FUCKING RARE for that to happen... for both kids to get HIV that way would be so unlikely that you might as well class it as impossible.
So, which parent is fucking the kids?
If we would follow the Torah's commandment to put to death any man who has anal sex with another man, those tradegies could be prevented.
I know it's nitpicky but, all the Torah says is "You shall not lie with a man, as with a woman"; it does not describe what that means specifically.
The Torah would also call for putting the daughter to death for having sex before marriage. So why aren't you saying she deserves to die as well?
You are a vile person; you pick and choose scripture only to suit your own bigotry.

Absolutely, and I say this with iron certainty, zero deaths from that, ever.
Also, how can someone who calls himself "philosopher" be so utterly incurious?
...straight people infected with HIV by homosexual men.
If "straight" people are having sex with homosexuals, that makes them, you know, homosexuals.
What if the woman had sex with a man who had had unprotected sex with a woman who, unknown to the man, was HIV positive? Such tragedies can and do happen in America, Europe, and most prominently, in Africa today.
Does the Torah really specify sexual position? I know the Old Testament don't.
I wonder how many people are mourning the deaths of straight people infected with HIV by homosexual men.
Pretty close to zero I'd imagine. Not very many straight men go have gay sex. It's weird though how homophobes are convinced that it's so easy for a "straight" man to turn gay. Says a lot about them.
Jewish Philosopher responds to a critic of this post:
"Gay rights is a favorite topic for atheists because first of all, it implies a rejection of the Bible, which is always good. Secondly, it involves defending a weak minority group, giving atheists a nice glow of self righteousness. If millions of lives are lost, I guess that's just collateral damage."
Among hateful, ignorant theists, this guy could give David Stewart a run for his money.
I'm pretty happy being free. Have a wonderful fiancé. So on. That said, if anyone showed up with the intention of killing me or my fiancé, neither of us would go down without a fight. In fact I doubt many of us would.
Or would the police officers being killed just be 'collateral damage'?
Not that anything like that would ever happen. Bigots like you are fading out. Probably makes you scared, huh?
"If millions of lives are lost, I guess that's just collateral damage."
Excuse me, which of us is advocating the killing of 5% of the population?
Ah, more strawman arguments by the troll jewish FAILosopher. And his real screename is proven:
"I wonder how many people are mourning the deaths of straight people infected with HIV by homosexual men."
"straight people infected with HIV by homosexual men"
>straight
>homosexual
Haven't really thought out the logic of your argument, have you?
The last time I saw a straw man that large, there was an extra-crispy policeman inside it!
"I wonder how many people are mourning the deaths of straight people infected with HIV by homosexual men."
How the fuck exactly does that work?
"Imagine for a moment that you had a twenty eight year old daughter. She is diagnosed with AIDS and tuberculosis and is expected to soon die.

Where in the holy hell do you people get things like this? Is there some sort of fundy Book of Insane Propositions somewhere?
"If we would follow the Torah's commandment to put to death any man who has anal sex with another man, those tradegies could be prevented."
You seem fixated with men having anal sex with one another. Perhaps you're just in need of a good reaming out yourself.
Well, since you insist on fruitfully multiplying past the earth's capacity to sustain life in a world where all fish in the ocean will be extinct by 2048... losing one child leaves you ten or more that will also have ten or more children exponentially. Nature is doing its best to save humanity from extinction with one of the few incurable diseases at its disposal to control the human population, coextinction is our best Judeo-Christian hope.

'The Bible says that if a man sleeps with another man, they should be stoned. It definitely helps.'
-Frankie Boyle
Astounding. Despite displaying the knowledge that straight people can give each other AIDS he seems to think that it has to originate from a gay man. If he weren't barking mad he would realize it makes more sense to execute straight people, who are infected with HIV, than it does to kill gay men who don't carry the virus.
BTW. The fact that AIDS wasn't brought to this country by a Harvard Student coming home from spring break, a Kennedy returning from safari, or even a Christian missionary returning from his/her mission is pure chance.
unprotected sex
You are giving away the solution without even realizing it. Condoms work. I used to carry them myself when I was dating, just in case my date forgot. "Be safe, not sorry."
And bonus, we won't have to kill anyone. :D
Prostitutes and drug users can also have HIV. Should we kill them- Oh wait, you'd condone that too.
EDIT: Wait... I missed something. What in the hell does Clementi's death have to do with HIV? Sick is what you are..

It is already punishable by law for someone of any sexual persuasion to neglect to inform someone they plan to do the deed with that they have a dangerous STD. Besides that, it would be pretty difficult for an HIV positive homosexual to give an STD to a straight person seeing as that would require sex they are not interested in.
Oh wait, its just jewishphilosopher.
Damned troll never stops.
I don't know if you heard of it yet, but there's an invention called "condome". Yo might want to look into it.
Also, as an amoral atheist I'd care for my daughter, her husband and the grandchildren. But's that's just me, an evil, amoral atheist seduced by the devil.
I guess you, the morally superior being would go on the internet and tell the story to "make clear how dangerous homosexuality is" or something heroic like that.
Hey, what do I know? I'm going to hell!
For vulture-picking on a young man's death...

For your sheer psychopathic nature...

And for your usage of religious faith as a whitened self-righteous robe to hide the ugliness and filth of your core beliefs...

Imagine for a moment that you are a palestinian living in the west bank. A jewish philosopher arrives and decides to tear down your house and build his own house on your land.
He shows the commandment in the Torah that says god gave this land only to jews. Then he shoots the palestinian. Such tragedies can and do happen in Israel today.
>> She is diagnosed with AIDS and tuberculosis and is expected to soon die.<<
...
If you have had any public health training at all, you would know how that could have been prevented.
Also - TB and HIV don't kill you immediately . Unless you've gotten the totally-resistant strain (which is a scary thing, but hasn't been reported in the Americas or Europe yet), TB can be treated effectively. HAART therapy brings the life expectancy of HIV patients up to several decades.
"jewish philosopher" fails natural philosophy forever.
"I wonder how many people are mourning the deaths of straight people infected with HIV by homosexual men."
Zero.
Because zero straight males have been infected with HIV by homosexual men.
If you are having unprotected sex with a gay man, it is because you are gay, and stupid.
WTF does an 18 y/o who committed suicide have to do with HIV? That's really reaching.
And good luck with your little "we should all follow the torah" gig; that ain't gonna work. This is country where people can't even microwave minute rice without explicit directions.
Besides, the torah is a horrible book-as is the bible & the koran. All 3 are would best be used as kindling or rolling papers.
The limitless ignorance & stupidity of this man staggers me.
anyones death is a sad event for someone. There were many cases where the risk of infection by blood transfusions was notknown, or the blood was not tested and the donor did not know he was infected. Over time those sort of infeections have been greatly reduced or eliminated.
Perhaps Mr Clementi was a virgin homosexual ?
A long period between infection of HIV, signs of HIV and then HIV become AIDS can mean a lot of people who inknowingly had high risk behavior may be only know experiancing the overt symptoms. I have heard times if 10 years for HIV/AIDS.
Only of you put both men to death he very first time either engages in behavior that could spread the disease. Perhaps if God was more active at smiting people for breaking his laws things would be simpler. ?

The same people who mourn the deaths of people who have been stabbed to death by unicorns.
She is diagnosed with AIDS and tuberculosis and is expected to soon die. Her husband and her two small children, have tested HIV positive.

That boy unknown to her was HIV positive after having had unprotected anal sex with a man who, unknown to the boy, was HIV positive. Such tragedies can and do happen in America and Europe today.
You know what? That sucks. She probably should have practiced safe sex and she probably should have asked about her partner's sexual history. But what does this prove other than that HIV can infect anyone regardless of gender, age, and sexual orientation. If you're retarded idea is that AIDS is somehow a gay plague you just shot it in the leg.
If we would follow the Torah's commandment to put to death any man who has anal sex with another man, those tradegies could be prevented.
Or, you know, wear a condom and practice safe sex. But then again we all know Yahwee. Why solve a solution logically and peaceful when you can just instigate mass genocide. It worked so well on the Philistines right?
Why the fuck would a gay guy fuck a guy in the arse and then fuck a girl? He'd be bi in that case.
I can think of an elegant and simple solution which means that no-one has to get executed: Contraception. Sexual health clinics. Medicine. Education. That would be a bit more effective than the threat of execution for homosexual sex. During the period when homosexual sex was prosecutable, men just did it secretly.
"If we would follow the Torah's commandment to put to death any man who has anal sex with another man, those tradegies could be prevented."
To paraphrase:
"I'd rather the gay guy die instead"
"I wonder how many people are mourning the deaths of straight people infected with HIV by homosexual men."
I think it's much more likely that a straight man would give HIV to a lesbian by raping her, dumbass.
I didn't read any further.
"Gay rights is a favorite topic for atheists because first of all, it implies a rejection of the Bible..."
Except many pro-LGBTs are THEISTS! *NYAH*
Why dos this goober & those like him assume ALL Progressive people are atheists and why, pray tell, do they unfortunate delusion that all theists believe in the Bible?
If anyone has a theory, I'm all for it because the stupid is too much.
Imagine................or give actual evidence. If homosexual men don´t have sex except with men, wouldn´t it be more logical to think that it´s HER HUSBAND, not the wife, the one who got infected in a kind of bi curiosity experience?. Or why looking for sex with a person who obviously doesn´t feel attracted to in the first place?. Asuming that the man did have a phase in which he was not sure about his sexuality, in no way would he have infected the girl, because he would have sex with men after realising he doesn´t like women, or not?. And let alone the fact that Lesbians are out of the picture, HIV is not a gay disease.
1. You should have taken care of your daughter, talked to her that sex with random people is not recommendable, without being condescending to her.
2. You say 'homosexual' but the 'boy' had sex with a woman - Which means he's bisexual.
3. 20 years old? Husband and children? You must be really conservative then.
Is this website called std.net because so many people here have std's, most probably late stage syphillis which has destroyed their brains, as it did the the late, great atheist Freidrich Nietzsche?
Is that why nothing here actually makes any sense and no one can answer a question with something similar to a serious answer?
"Is that why nothing here actually makes any sense and no one can answer a question with something similar to a serious answer?"
Says the guy who doesn't even understand the meaning of the word "homosexual".
Confused?
