Common sense tells people that, during a thunderstorm they should seek shelter below beech trees and not below oak trees, because after thunderstorms you´ll only see damaged oaks and no damaged beeches and so one should conclude that Beeches don´t get hit by lightnings.
But you know what?
Common sense is wrong there. Beeches get hit by lightnings as often as oaks but have an electric conductive bark, that leads the energy of the lightning into the ground (making it much more dangerous for poeple to stand at a beech during a thunderstorm than to stand at an oak)
Common sense doesn´t always make sense if you carefully research it. In your case it doesn´t make sense as well, as it is obvious that your common sense just got mixed up with prejudices ;)
Just because a thought is COMMON, doesn't mean it makes SENSE.
Remember when the earth was thought to be flat? Well, for you, that was probably thursday so forget it.
Dear Anonymous Commenter,
Fuck You! I spent my entire childhood and 90% of my teenaged years without a father or father figure of any type and I know for a fact that I turned out normal.
Common sense is really not that common. If it were, we wouldn't have pollution, a hole in the ozone layer, or global warming.
Or you, for that matter.
You know, day after day I calmly discuss people's views. I try to rationalize the bigotry, close-mindedness, and flagrant stupidity. I try to respect everyone's faiths and personal life choices. But as time goes on, and I continue to read crap like this, I just want to scream. These people, all these people make me sick. I hate that. I wish I could find redeeming qualities in some, or one.
How many people who had a traditional mother and father are currently in therapy as a result of that father and/or mother?
You have no sense, common or otherwise.
What about single parents?
The single parents are what the fundies and anti-gays base their stance on, more often than not. The idiots state that since kids who experience divorce and grow up with only one parent do worse than kids with two parents, then kids of same-sex parents will, too. Their argument is rephrased into something like "studies of kids growing up without a father and mother..." to give it something resembling credibility.
Here's a quote from article that this genius is commenting on:
"She notes that 24 percent of children raised by homosexuals or lesbians had experiences with the same gender, while zero percent raised by heterosexuals leaned in that direction. "
XD Sure, lady.
At least some of the other people who posted there know that she's full of it.
Why do so many people have such distrust of experts in any field? Doctors, scientists, professors, you name it: people never seem to trust the opinions of the more knowledgeable. Can anyone enlighten me as to why this is?
Common sense would also dictate that the sun moves around the earth, not that the earth is actually exponentially smaller than the sun and millions of miles away, and that the earth actually orbits the sun.
This is why evidence is so important.
So... if one parent dies, should the children be taken away because they can't grow up 'normal', then?
Cause... me and my younger sister pretty much grew up without a father.
Oh dear. I guess my Dad dying is the reason why I'm not straight.
So, what should we do with all children growing up in a one-parent home? Kill them all now, since they are not going to be NORMAL?
Two loving parents of the same gender is better than one daddy and one mummy who fight all the time.
It's not the gender that matters, but the care, respect and love you bestow on your child.
Gay parents probably have siblings or friends of the other gender, who can teach the child about that specific gender.
You might be common, but you lack sense.
Damn right! All that "evidence" and "study" done over the "years" that "show" that kids "raised" by gays turn out "normal", that's all just lies made up by the Gay Agenda, or the Lavender Mafia or whatever the hell it is this asswipe is railing against.
Even forgetting the homosexual thing for a moment, there have been plenty of perfectly adjusted people who grew up without at least one parent because he/she was dead or otherwise out of the picture.
Some of the biggest asswipes on the planet grew up in your picture perfect mom-and-dad environment. So stop making generalisations that are completely invalid.

Here is a brat who's looking peeved because he was told to stop playing with his fidget spinner by a professional in Child Psychology, and had it confiscated because he wouldn't: due to the fact that he never acts like an adult ...

...and an Expert.
Your move.
...and does Theresa May Not have to slap a bitch - Mike Penis : appointed by said brat - when she's taking steps to make 'Conversion Therapy' illegal : just as she had to do the same to that brat when he played on Twitter too much, and reTweeted what British neo-Nazis had said?!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
