on genetically engineering children
I'm not opposed to this. Physical and mental defects would be screened first for my child. I don't care what color their eyes and hair are, but if I could ensure s/he looks good, that would go a long way in making him/her happy. Yes I would also screen for homosexuality, and take measures to prevent it. Please don't call me a homophobe, but I would prefer my child not be homosexual. Or deaf. Or have any kind of poor/nonexistant senses.
It would take a lot of worry away from parents if they could be sure that their child can have a good start in life. I'm all for it.

His4Life... I will finish, what you started. Nothing will stand in our way.
READ YOUR FUCKING BIBLES PEOPLE!!!!
@His4Ever
Have you ever considered that you might be taken more seriously if you were to:
1) not model your name after a well known troll
2) not use all caps
3) actually give reasons for reading your holy book, beyond stuff like "You will go to hell if you don't" which is an incredibly ineffective threat if the target audience don't already believe in hell.
4) tried to work it into the context of the post you're commenting on, rather than just cutting/pasting. People appreciate effort, if nothing else.
Just a thought.

I bet it's not even the same IP.
Not worth bothering with. That whole sorry episode is over. Whatever it is, it's worse than pathetic now.
Or deaf. Or have any kind of poor/nonexistant senses.
You'll screen for deafness too? How about myopia, tone deafness, or the inability to taste the difference between a Merlot and a Pinot noir?
Ok Chad I won't, but I will call you an atelophobe.
In case those are wondering here is what atelophobia is: Atelophobia- Fear of imperfection.
@His4Ever?
Seriously, the name reads like a high school girl crush. I take it you have a high school crush on Jesus?
And, no, just no. I have read a lot of the Bible, don't care to ever read it again. Reading the Bible is, in fact, what made me think that your religion is fiction. So I would recommend not telling people to read the Bible, lest you want more people to leave your religion, possibly in droves.
Interesting paradox. Fundies say you are not born gay. It is a choice.
Now if science came up with a method to screen it out would they be for it or against it? Since being for it would acknowledge that people are born gay.
So you're not a homophobe, but you think homosexuality is a physical and/or mental defect that should be removed from the genepool...
Riiiight. Do you even hear yourself talk?
Seriously, though, what's with these "I'm not homophobic, but..." people on the Zelda forums suddenly?

YAAAAAAAWNNNNN!!!!!!
I think this is kind of meh. I mean, I hope they grow up to be straight partially because I would like to see grandchildren some day and partially because I don't want them to suffer from homophobia persecution. Of course I'll still love them no matter what, and I have no problem whatsoever with gay people. I don't think it's necessarily homophobic to want your children to grow up straight, at least without seeing any homophobic comments.
But somehow the idea of choosing genes to produce perfect is just creepy.
@Doubting thomas
You do realize that gay couples can have children right (okay albeit via invitro, surrogates and sperm donors ,but still) . A gay child can still give you grandchildren.... Plus straight or not having a child is no guarantee of getting granchildren.... An increasing number of straight couples are choosing to be childfree...
Of course these satanists will fail with their "medical tests"! The Bible tells us where sodomite behavior comes from--from reprobate mind of the satanist! And it can be cured, by Jesus!

Good look screening for homosexuality. We're even sure if it's genetic.
Also a homophobe on the LEGEND OF ZELDA forum. Erm, do you have any idea how many characters in Zelda with an ambiguous gender/sexuality.
@ Jerry
Chad is one of you guys.
@Plot Hole Jerry
The immortal werewolf Batanen in the anime series "Hyper Police ". Wolverine in Marvel Comics' "X-Men". Also the eponymous Spectrum agent in the Gerry Anderson series "Captain Scarlet ". And Meister Otome Lena Sayers in the 3-part anime OVA "My Otome O~Sifr ; she took a bullet to the head at point-blank range, and survived.
Why couldn't your J-boy heal himself ? Or simply make his skin utterly impervious to those nails?
...oh, but there's the M. Night Shyamalan-esque twist to that whole hole blown in your so-called 'Mystery' of the Bible that's so huge that the Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann could fly through it: sideways : as his daddy couldn't see those Iron Chariots a-comin' - nor know about their construction in the first place - thus they pwned him in Judges 1:19, thus we know that Iron is to him - and therefore your J-boy - what Kryptonite is to Superman.
Couldn't cure his own Roman-inflicted injuries, therefore he can't do jack shit.
I bet you've had a bout of the flu, Jer. Or toothache. A case of the terrible guts: Montezuma's/Gandhi's Revenge. The Dreaded Lurgi. Zits.
Anyone who says they never have is a liar . You're just embarrassing yourself, subhuman Jerry.
Not sure. After all, an homosexual children would mean less probability for having grand-children, so I can understand.
The WTF lies in the belief that homosexuality is genetic
What's happening to the Zelda fandom nowadays? It used to your usual happy Nintendo fandom, but they've suddenly gone fundie...
This is a sign: Now fundie-itis will spread to the Mario fandom, then the Pokemon fandom, and then every single Video Game fandom in the world!

I'm hard of hearing because they gave me drugs soon after I was born. I asked my dad about it years later and he told me he had rather me be deaf than dead. Deafness comes from many sources. So your 'screening' might not even work.

Don't worry sir, you just did so yourself, we needn't confirmation from third parties.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
