Going into the latest Gay Marriage thread, I was happy to see a slightly different slant on it than the previous times. But that was a short lived joy as I saw it quickly moving into the same usual arguments. So be it. But it inspired me to do something I had joked with Flea about before -- make an index of the "greatest" threads debating the usual major topics.
I tried to keep it to timeless classic topics and threads of at least two pages but preferably 3+ and ones that stayed more or less on track for the length of the thread. Feel free to suggest topics or threads since this was a real rush job.

Hmm...maybe now I won't get pigeonholed with the title of "Archivist."
Thanks Joph!

I's day I need to quit posting those, but I honestly am interested to hear what you fu[Antiquewhite][/Antiquewhite]cks have to say. (Except for Moe, because I know what he'll say, and Gbaji, because I don't read it.)

People tried to use the fact that homosexuals don't reproduce as evidence that it's not genetic.

Hey, you can do that same thing for Downs Syndrome!
Do what now?

I don't even remember that conversation at all (and I'm not going through all the gay rights threads looking for it) but I have heard of people with Downs having children.

It's extremely rare.
The point is that you do not have to have a genetic condition for your child to have it.
The fact that gay people don't reproduce doesn't mean there's not a gay gene. High School level science would show that.

O RLY?
I mean, I understand that a gay couple cannot technically have their own child, but gay people do actually have babies.

Well now that just misses the point entirely. I wasn't the one arguing gays can't reproduce. So I don't know why you're linking that.
It was just one little trivial point in a 3-page long thread, and I didn't expect it to evolve into another drawn out thread. The point was that people ignorant of genetics were making false statements to attack gays.
Yeah, I really have no idea what it's about anyways.
