I sometimes think that the cheerleaders for the homos and their putative rights are actually ecologists, who are happy that at least
these people will not be reproducing and filling the planet with any more detestable human beings...
A good evolutionist, if you'll pardon the contradiction in terms, would indeed encourage homosexuality as a viable option in the hope of making other adults de facto infertile, and having more of the space available in coming generations set aside for one's own offspring.

A good evolutionist, if you'll pardon the contradiction in terms...
Why is that a contradiction in terms? Because we don't subscribe to your ludicrous account of human origins? I will remind you that a substantial number of Christians believe the theory of evolution over the Biblical Creation.
I'll remind you that your Jesus and his followers warned you against judging others.
Ah, is that where Uncle Davey went to? A weaselly fellow, with a nice line in personal abuse.
Actually it's not a bad idea ... we need to reduce the human population, so we might as well have fun doing it!
A good evolutionist ... would indeed encourage homosexuality
How does one "encourage" homosexuality? If you're a heterosexual, you're not attracted to people of the same sex, and nothing anyone does will encourage you to be. Conversely, if someone can encourage you to prefer sex with someone of the same sex, then you're not heterosexual.
No a contradiction would be something like "honest fundy," "good fundy," "sane, rational fundy" etc.
But you can't encourage someone to be gay, just as you can't force them not to be. It's a sexual orientation that you either have or you don't. And people who accept that evolution is a fact do not necessarily want to outbreed anybody else. They simply recognize that it's the truth. So you're very wrong here.

Actually, we do it because good interior decorators are hard to find and we don't want our children's furniture to clash with the drapes (the horror!).
(Also, reducing the number of potential mates for your offspring is not exactly the best evolutionary strategy.)
Ah, yes, Uncle Davey, infamous USENET troll. I had a run-in with him once. Turns out he's one of the nicer trolls around. I wondered what he was up to. Now I know--trolling free.christians.
IMHO, the bigger fundie on that thread is Bible Bob.
To D Laurier: "Is there an award for sheer batshit insanity?"
Yes, I run a bunch of those for USENET posts like Uncle Davey's. Go to http://www.caballista.org/auk/index.html.
"If so I'd like to nominate this post."
Find a relevant category and nominate Uncle Davey's article or Bible Bob's response in a post to alt.usenet.kooks.

C'mon.
C'mooon.
It's just a cock.
Convinced yet?
It doesn't work like that.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
