Sounds pretty smart to me, after today’s ruling….

“The ridiculous thing about something like Prop 8 is that it will be overturned. They put something like $40 million into that campaign, and they might as well have just bet all that money on the Red Sox. It’s wasted money because that civil-rights battle will be won eventually.”

Im 51 years old and I spend as much time as possible watching “Family Guy”. I love it. Im addicted to it. Its my new Seinfeld. I love Mondays because I can watch FG on TBS for hours. I also think this guy is one of the most talented people Ive ever been aware of. He’s amazing. Whe Stewie sings Bryan Adams, forget about it. Now, with all that said. Im also a Christian and when I hear/read some of Mr. MacFarlane’s anti-christian or atheistic comments sadly we grow apart. I respect the right of someone to believe or not to believe and I harbor no ill feelings towards atheists. It ‘s like my son used to say “Its all good” and then I add “Its all God”.

There, fixed it for ya, Norbit.

“a good number of Americans were already saying, comparing Arizona’s new immigration policy to Nazi Germany’” Jocelyn Rousey

I’m sure you meant say “a good number of fools”. Because to compare Arizona’s policy to Nazi Germany (or to Communist China as Michael Posner did) you either have to be a fool or completely ignorant regarding the history of Nazi Germany or Communist China.

I have to agree with you on this Azarkhan. Comparing anything to Nazi Germany is bogus and nutty.

Thumbs up!

I have to disagree Stooges.

Go forward liberals should embrace Jonah Goldberg and Beck and just inject them into any conversatio much the way they do.

So in short Gov. is a nazi.

that’s how they do it; and that’s the way they LIKE IT!

his manatees must have been working overtime

Gee, Seth MacFarlane runs his mouth without engaging his brain. What a surprise.

The difference is that Arizona is insisting that the United States Government enforce Federal law. They’re on firm grounds. We have tens of millions of people here in clear, open violation of Federal law, and the Federal Government has chosen to petition the Federal courts on behalf of the law-breakers.

A closer parallel would be when the Federal Government was winking at Jim Crow laws for a century because the Democratic Party wanted to be allowed to violate the Constitution when it wanted to. And MacFarlane is in there pitching for Jim Crow now.

It wasn’t even necessary to interview MacFarlane to know what his view on those issues would be. He’s a typical Hollywood drone. What a shock.

I know there’s a lot of words here for you Lefties, but if you read real slow some of it might penetrate:

The Left-Wing Propaganda Machine (nbc, cbs, abc, AP, NY Times, etc) will be going full-force promoting the ASSUMPTION that Homosexuality IS AN IMMUTABLE TRAIT!

IT IS NOT!

It’s a CONDITIONED ORIENTATION! – acquired through interaction with one’s environment, and the subsequent conceptual formulations – both conscious(cognitive) and sub-conscious(emotional) – derived thereof.

If there’s going to be a government edict to recognize such “orientation” as marriage, then every union and “orientation” must be recognized, effectively rendering the institution of “marriage” meaningless – which is precisely what the Radical Left seeks, a dissolution of the family unit!

My understanding is that there are actual brain differences that are largely determined before birth, in most cases. Specifically, the structure of the brains of gay men is similar to the structure of the brains of straight women. This also goes for lesbians and straight men. These differences are noticed with the amygdala where “in straight women and gay men, the signals from the amygdala ran mainly into the regions of the brain that mediate mood and anxiety. In straight men and lesbians, the amygdala fed their their signals mainly into the sensorimotor cortex and the striatum, regions of the brain that trigger “fight or flight” in response to fear. “It’s a more action-related response than in straight women,”"

Similarities in the structure of the network that regulates emotion? Pretty important considering that the emotional network is connected to the parts of the brain associated with sexual arousal and oxytocin regulation.

There is no evidence that supports your claim that homosexuality is a conditioned orientation. In fact, there have been numerous empirical studies that have indicated the exact opposite. A gay couple is just as likely to raise a gay child as a heterosexual couple. If homosexuality was a condition orientation, as you claim, they would have found a higher instance of homosexuality in children raised by gay couples, however that was not the case at all.

So, please, what is your source?

I think he’s brillant at what he does with FG but as someone who only knows illegal as “those people working in his yard, house and at the pool, shouldn’t really be commenting on what right and wrong with the illegal debate, for AZ. As for gays, his hair cut says it all. I even bet he get a full Brazilian too.

MacFarlane received a significant amount of attention for voicing in not-so-eloquent terms what a good number of Americans were already saying, comparing Arizona’s new immigration policy to Nazi Germany’s. ”

He is a total asshole and ignorant.

• Godwin’s Law – As a discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1.

You make a lot of assumptions there, and it appears that you think “homosexual” is a pejorative.

Yor’re confusing the Chicken with the Egg!

Homosexuality is a MANIFEST ORIENTATION, not an IMMUTABLE TRAIT!
Simply put, it is a conceptually-derived response to inculcated emotional conditioning.

Politically-Correct “scientists” may contort all subsequent “evidence” they proclaim to the contrary, but it’s not going to change the fundamental principles of human development – which has nothing to do with ephemeral personality characteristics, WHATEVER they may be!

No, it is not a manifest orientation, whatever that is. It is also not an immutable trait, like a gene. Most evidence suggest that epigenetic factors play a huge role, such as exposure to certain hormone levels during the height of brain development in utero. At any rate, science has indicated that, for the most part, people who are gay are born that way.

As I said before, if conditioning were involved, gay couples would raise gay children more frequently than heterosexual couples. That is not the case at all. The idea of homosexuality being a product of emotional conditioning was thrown out the scientific window when the removed homosexuality from the DSM. The idea only exists now as a decades-old pseudo-science fallback for people that want to believe there is a ‘gay agenda corrupting our youth’.

NORBIT said:

Actually, there’s no ‘contorting’ of evidence involved. These findings come from direct observations of functional brain scans.

With this sentence, you indicate your abundance of willful ignorance. You are claiming 70 year-old science as your evidence, but any science that comes after yours is ‘contorted’. Our understanding of human development is still changing and will continue to change. Hell, even not even 10 years ago, we had no idea of what epigenetic factors were, now they are changing our understanding of ‘nature vs. nurture’.

Might I suggest you pick up a Child development book or a biology book that has been written in the past 10 years? You might learn something.

But you probably won’t. You’ll probably write it off because it doesn’t mesh with your prejudiced view of reality.

At least Seth had the balls to challenge the Islamic extremists with his Allah/ muhammad episode of Family Guy. Finally, a liberal with some balls. Now only if Comedy Central would have played it.
