Magnets also don’t breathe. Go on, Amalaha, cease thine respirations as the magnets have so commanded.
82Except the magnets are the same just in different orientations, so he's really just proven that gay couples need to have one of them be upside down

Like this?

Backwards no? Either case both can be applicable lol.

I forgot the year 2013 existed.
45It was alright. My wife was pregnant, I was still teasing someone I knew about how worked up they had been about the Mayan thing, joined a different D&D table, oh and something about Ebola

Wait until they find out how magnets are made and that you can reverse poles. That will be a discovery.
42Or the fact that most magnets have two poles and a magnet with one pole is an abboration gained by extreme forces applied against it.
21Oh even better. :) Somehow I missed that obvious point.
6I like how knowing this kinda fixes the extremely bad initial analogy
4
Magnets are obviously magical items imbued by God with their magical properties at the time of creation exactly 2044 years ago.

He beat to the punch his rival who was trying to do the same with velcro strips.
31And earlier tests and research with sticky tape
4They tried with double sided tape first but they dismissed the results because it didn't support the conclusion they wanted to make.

Our attention has been drawn to a publication containing research purportedly written by one of the Part Time Postgraduate Diploma Students in the Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Lagos – Stanley Amalaha, titled “Science of Gay Marriage” in THISDAY Newspapers of 5th September, 2013 and on several blogs on the Internet.
The University of Lagos writes to dissociate itself in its entirety from the actions, publications and research of this individual. We further state, for the avoidance of doubt, that his publication has nothing to do with his programme and has no relationship to his studentship of the University. Indeed our postgraduate diploma students ordinarily only take conversion courses to improve their capability for the chosen specialization and do not undertake research. The case of the writer who has a background in Education (Chemistry) is not different.
Although the University is a market place of different views and ideas, its platform should not be used for the propagation of ill-conceived, unsubstantiated and ill-digested opinions that have no basis in rigorous empirical research. The University of Lagos, which stands for excellence in teaching and research, cannot and should not be associated with such puerile and pseudo-scientific postulations.
The University reaffirms its mission, which is to be a top-class institution for the pursuit of excellence in knowledge through learning and research as well as in character and service to humanity.

28Successfully explain this to a penguin and you have completed one science.
27Guys I read the peer reviewed paper and... it checks out.
We are cancelling homosexuality immediately. Tough call I know but you can't deny solid science.
24Reminds me of one of the funniest Onion articles I've seen:

18"Look my brother’s gay. Well, not anymore, but you know.”
Lol, great read

This is why head on automotive collisions are also impossible.
22You can't argue with an erlenmeyer full of magnetism folks. Science wins.
17The argument ignores Hume's guillotine in the weirdest appeal to nature I've ever seen in my entire life.
16That's where when you cut a magnet in half both have a north and south pole?
5Iirc, Hume's guillotine states essentially that a statement of what should be cannot be derived from any system of statements only about what is. That is to say, morality cannot be derived only from reality. Basically, you need to have a set of axioms (which in this context are called "ethical systems") in order to reduce questions of morality to questions of fact.
Apologies for any errors I am only half-awake.
5When translating this to the animal realm it's pretty clear what part of the male to cut in half, but what part of the female specimen would we cut?

We need more testing. Whip your dick out. Let's see if our tips can touch.
15That is called a poorly formed analogy. Not proof, dipstick.
14I think somebody needs to tell him people are not, in fact, magnets
12Are you sure? All these chick magnets I've heard about seem to support his conclusion.
4
Okay, I am convinced: from now on I am completely against the marriage of same pole magnets!
10You can produce magnetic surfaces of mixed polarity, with some parts being positive and others negative.
So good that's good news for trans, bi, and polyamorous people.
9Magnets - how do they work?
9If you drop them in water? Boom. No more magnets.
3Fucking magnets

Water, fire, air and dirt Fucking magnets, how do they work? And I don't wanna talk to a scientist Y'all motherfuckers lying, and getting me pissed.
7Come on, everyone who’s had to make sense of the “right hand rule”, knows magnetism is queer. Magnetism strictly rules out straight people
Or maybe, anyone who’s ever tried to lay two bar magnets together knows that never works. The only way is to lay in opposite directions, strictly proving that “69” is the only position.
6He's kinda cute though, and I'm a man – checkmate, science!
6He looks kind of gay. No straight scientist is going to have the fashion sense to do a red on white double lapel and see those cuffs. No straight man could pull cuffs like he does.
6Bruh i ain't no magnet, weirdo.
5African anti-gay 'science' is always ultra funny
5Sadly it also is a cause of very real human suffering and death on very real people.
11That was going to happen regardless of the 'science'

No wonder why they're still inventing aviation
4Exhibit A: The famed "chick magnet".
mic drop
4Man, wait till they find out that animals are often gay...
4It makes sense. Animals don't know anything about magnets.
5
"Why are you gay?"
3What about gravity?
3Is it real?
2I remember looking it up, but it's been a little while. I think it was real, but then the university had to come out and make a statement that he doesn't represent the their views or something.
