Nike drops Manny Pacquiao because of his homophobic comments - Polidicks

I think Manny isn't a bad guy but he's misguided. He spends a lot of his earnings on helping poorer people with setting up housing and so on. It's a shame he's relying on such a flawed book for his moral code though, his heart seems to be in the right place. He's still a good fighter, can't say anything about that.

[QUOTE=lonefirewarrior;49763877]No one's going to say anything about this? I'm dying over here.[/QUOTE] No because it wasn't funny

The way I see it, if it happens, it's natural. Murder is natural Homosexuality is natural etc It's all natural if we, nature, can do it.

Aww Pacman come on... don't be like that.

[QUOTE=Bazsil;49763620]Because clearly his stance on a social issue has any effect on his ability to perform People who disagree with me should have their careers utterly ruined, its the only way to get them to have not wrong opinions[/QUOTE] gotta make a snarky comment no time for actually reading the thread [editline]18th February 2016[/editline] (p sure his stance on a social issue affects his ability to perform as a senator)

[QUOTE=willer;49763981]Not that I'm an expert or anything, but the impression I've got from the "natural" thing is that it's easier to count the number of animals that don't have homosexual tendencies than it is to count the ones that do. I don't really think less of Manny from this- he's a boxer that grew up in poor areas of the Philippines. On top of that the boxing scene isn't known for being liberal, and on top of THAT he's trying to also make it as a politician, which means that he has to do a certain amount of pandering to a certain demographic.[/QUOTE] Well like you said, you're not an expert. More importantly, the ones that do display homosexual tendencies are predominantly intelligent; again: elephants, dolphins, bonobos, monkeys. Actually, all great apes practice it in some form or another (that includes us, and that's all that matters at the end of the day). It's natural, it doesn't hurt anyone, and it's not going to disappear just because of religion. To compare the natural argument to rape and murder as well is fucking retarded, because, again, the distinction here (and it's just a [i]tiny[/i] distinction... /s) is that homosexuality is a practice that has actual social utility and doesn't harm anyone as a consequence... unlike, you know, rape and murder. Also, you don't think less of a man who's apparently a religious sellout trying to pander in order to make it as a politician? It doesn't matter if he grew up poor (he's not poor now), it doesn't matter where he's from, it doesn't matter what he does for a living. He's an idiot for saying this, he's doubly an idiot if he actually believes it. Like Lord of Ears said, he's the last person we need to be listening to on the matter; he spends his life getting the bloody piss beaten out of him-- which while that's entertaining as hell to watch does not make him a qualified expert, and it certainly doesn't help his brain differentiate sense from nonsense either.
