"Normal" and "Irrationality" are functions of a statistical "bell"
curve.
Um, you're befuddled.
By definintion, half the American people cannot be deemed
irrational.
By definition, you're simply wrong.
Irrational -- ADJECTIVE:
1a. Not endowed with reason.
b. Affected by loss of usual or normal mental clarity; incoherent,
as from shock.
c. Marked by a lack of accord with reason or sound judgment: an
irrational dislike.
None of these relate to statistics in any fashion.
Emotions themselves are irrational in nature. Think on that.
How many human beings are true emotionless automatons? In
that arena, the vast majority of people *are* irrational, and
there's no shame in that.
Now, if you want to bandy statistics, that's fine, but it
would help you far more if you knew what you were talking about.
You can pick language, but you cannot fix the queer problem. Saying
that it is normal will not pass muster with more than half of the
American people.
Sorry, Charlie.....spin your wordsmithing to someone from New York or
California. Just don't try it with the majority of the American
people. They won't go for it.....
Indeed. Boston just finished addressing a HORRIFIC period in which OVER
1,000 young men and boys were sexually molested, fondled, and/or raped
by
homosexual priests
And of course they are homosexual priests because they molested
boys.
Precisely.
