One thing I don't understand about the common fears homophobic people have. How on Earth does being homosexual have ANYTHING to do with being a pedophile? No homosexual man I've ever spoken to would EVER give a child sexual advances and they find such things just a repugnant as everyone else (except for the pedophiles, of course).
Also, sexuality only affects who you're attracted to and who you would date--nothing else in everyday life. Honestly, would a heterosexual man just jump a female co-worker from unrestrained lust? No. So neither would a homosexual man randomly jump their male co-worker.
I seriously don't understand people sometimes. -_- Especially the Christian activists who view homosexuality as a deviation to hate. Love before all, yeah? And seriously, everything should be taken with a grain of salt and a good healthy dose of common sense. Times have certainly changed since the Bible was written--shouldn't the faith evolve to follow suit? But then that would be fanaticism and that's blinder than bats.
On a brighter note, I have discovered Elisa Viperas's Friendly Hostility, which is an online comic that has been running since '04, I think, and is AWESOME. Like in LMAO AWESOME. I highly recommend it and while the art appears simplistic and strange, it's very easy to get accustomed to and I ended up loving it.

On a scientific pov, I know they keep our pest population down, are mostly harmless unless poisonous, and their insides are free floating inside sloshing liquid. Totally off-topic, but you mentioned spiders and I couldn't resist. XD
