    im baffled by the extreme levels of stupidity exhibited in your comments and ad hoc theory. im pretty sure you have stated in the past that you have worked with alcoholics, helping them with their illness. did you tell them after several months of not drinking that they were no longer alcoholics???? i hope not.

    ad hoc? levels of stupidity? bwhahahaha? I the humble theist seem to be the only one given to the scientific method, while the materialist must rely upon the conflicting claims of psychoanalysts, bogus assertions of genetic predisposition, ignorance of the philosophical arguments concerning causation and I therefore openly mock you from my castle walls and throw cows and chickens at you from above!

    Anyhow, today is my wedding anniversary, 14 years married to a wonderful dusky maiden from the heart of the Punjab! peace be upon it and all of mother India

    ill put aside the hostilities for a moment and congratulate you on your anniversary.


    now back to your bizarre theory -

    would you advice a man who has given up alcohol for several years, yet battles with his craving to drink every moment of every day that he is no longer an alcoholic? yes or no?

    If someone sticks a gun to my wife's head, and threatens to pull the trigger unless I have sex with him, am I gay?

    According to Robbie, yes. But only while it's actually happening. Immediately afterwards, you are back to being neither gay nor straight. It must be a bit like Schrodinger's cat.

    I wonder if Robbie actually has a term for someone who is attracted to the opposite sex, or attracted to the same sex. He seems to think that such attractions do not exist, which begs the question of how he managed to end up married. Robbie, were you ever attracted to your wife?

    I think its fourteen years, seems like only yesterday, I think the last one was thirteen, not fourteen as I mistakenly cited, strange for a champion of empiric's and a man of science such as myself to get the data wrong, maybe I am a human and not angelic after all 🙂

    no you are quite wrong for I have consistently mentioned practice, what an individual practices is a classification, being coerced against ones own volition at the point of a gun is not a practice, is it, why must you try me with such ludicrous hypothetical scenarios. What it constitutes is a homosexual act.

    If they abuse children or conspire to abuse children by some evil machination they are a paedophile. Why this should be so difficult to grasp, I cannot say.

    he no longer engages in the practice of drinking alcohol excessively and is therefore no longer an alcoholic, clear, conscience and accurate. Now if you are quite finished my illustrious friends, I have a dinner engagement!
