Ah, you were doing so well there until you dropped that last sentence. And I hope that reference to being 'fucked....in the ass' isn't a little bit of subconscious homophobia coming out?
Not it's actually logic, read it again. Treat this as a lesson in interpretation. You saw homophobia which I can only assume means you think only gay men have anal sex.

What I actually meant was something completly different and actually is a statement based on the theory of evolution but I knew you probably didn't see the world logicly. You seem very reactionary and think everything is an insult or that everyone is trying to convert you. I'd thought I'd have a pop to see your reaction.

Like I said before, read the last sentence.

If we were all like you we'd have to all be male. Equally if we were all like you it would have to assumed that the male human had survived as a species without femals therefore would have developed a way to reproduce. It would seem fair to assume that this would be done through anal intercourse.

Like I said you saw it a completly different way. That's why religion gets so confusing.

Perhaps this is why you think the following:

Unfortunately, almost without exception, their belief systems all command that they should try and convert everyone else...in some cases with force.
What you regard as an attempt at forceful convertion may be just someone giving you the information so that you can make your own choice. Who knows? I don't. I have no idea why you have such an opinion. Granted there are those on the extreme side who fit your description but they are not religions they are power hungry and see religion as a way to control the masses and they are certainly more the exception than the rule.

I was given a handmade clay Ganesh from a guy at work. I sit him on my desk as it's something to distract me from the daily grind, I do not believe in Hinduism but I treat it as it was intended, a gift from a friend.Would you treat this as an attempted act of convertion?

The way you talk is that every follower of any religion is just a mideless soldier , hell bent on converting everyone to their way of thinking. My advice, wake up and dig a little deeper and hopefully you'll be able to make a some better informed statements about the world.
