Daily Mail 'readers' have more in common genetically with horses' arses.Originally posted by C0ckney View Postit's certainly good that we have the daily mail to teach us these things. we wouldn't hear that from the bbc!
it shouldn't surprise us though, afterall, paedophiles have more DNA in common with crabs than with humans.

Anyone who thinks that gay men and lesbians (and bisexuals, and transgendered individuals, yada, yada, yada) should be treated differently from everyone else because of a collection of texts of dubious provenance and reliability should perhaps be reminded of how anti-semitism, slavery and apartheid were all 'justified' by reliance on partial and selective readings of other parts of those texts.
