I predict the wet panties brigade will be here shortly and the round-robin assaults will begin.You seem rather anxious to get started.

You seem rather anxious to get started. Are you threatening me with round-robin assaults?

Of course not. I just wonder why, if you find the "round-robin assaults" so unpleasant, you would come along and throw the first punch with your name-calling, inflammatory post.
But of course, it's always the other guy's fault.

I knew you were kidding, just took the opprotunity to blow of some steam. During the last nation election I was repeatedly told that if we elect W, things will change. Well we elected W and things have not got any better. Taxes are up, spending is up, government is growing faster then with Clinton. I can't wait to hear the reason I should vote for W next election. It will probably be the same old "lessor of two evil" argument, but guess what right now I'd say Clinton was a better president then Bush. At least he didn't grow governement any where near as fast as Bush is.

I called no one out by name. You seem a little defensive.

I can't help but think that when your moral position condemned inter-religious relationships, inter-racial relationships and limited legal sex to the missionary position, you lost the ability to stand on the high ground but joined a battle with an indefensible argument in the valleys of human prejudicial behavior.
A smart strategist would see this as a opportunity to redefine the tenants of debate and offer new battle cries.
To: jellybean
You seem a little defensive.Me? No. I'm not defensive for myself - I don't have "wet panties" (incredibly crude of you, by the way) over President Bush - but I'll tell you what. Those of you who toss insults around at others and then play the victim when someone calls you on it ought to take a good, long look in the mirror.
Most people understand that they'll be treated with the amount of respect they give others. If you wanted honest debate, you would approach others respectfully.
Obviously, that's not what you're looking for at all.

"...right now I'd say Clinton was a better president then Bush."You have GOT to be kidding!

No, Bush is doing a much better job of implementing socalism then Clinton. Bush makes Clinton look conservative.

Excellent piece. Results of the Television Dictatorship, which, to a very large degree, overrides Democrat or Republican, elections, or the rule of law.

Bush makes Clinton look conservative.Not at all true, and entirely off-topic. Could we please not turn every thread into the same discussion?

"The Church Kills Gays" ??? - - - one can make a case that many seminaries (no pun intended!) have been taken over by open homosexuals. The resulting homosexual priests nearly destroyed the Church, not the Church destroying homosexuals.
Out of control homosexuals are acceptable in some parts of South Beach. They have proven themselves to be grossly inappropriate inside the Church hierarchy.
So to speak, they have been tried and been found wanton.

To: Polycarp
The impression given is false, for although "gay marriage" is not yet legal across the United States, Americans who have not abandoned the traditional belief that homosexual coupling is unnatural or sinful, must increasingly conceal their feelings. Even those who believe neither of those things and regard gay unions as a private matter are now expected to silence their wish that it would stay private rather than be publicly flaunted.
Very true. And there is nothing more oppressive than the supression of free speech. Talk about tyranny, just to state in an unapologetic tone, and nowhere close to pursuasive, just stating it, that you do not believe homosexuality is moral, nor are there any special "rights" for people who engage in the lifestyle, is enough to ruin careers in some professions.
And then there's the public health aspect....

Not to disagree, but out of control homosexuals are inappropriate everywhere - even South Beach.

most women aren't as deeply troubled by "gays" as the men are. This is my personal experience when I talk to women about this thing. Although many women aren't troubled by homos in theory, they change their tune very quickly if they ever actually see what homos do in practice. An old girlfriend of mine had a very "tolerant" view of them once, but one day when her parents were out of town and she was babysitting her 16 yr old brother, she came home early just to find her younger sibling engaged in the act with another boy his age. After that visual, combined with the smell of sh/t in the house, and she changed her tune about faggots very quickly.
I'd imagine that the vast majority of straight people who see no problem with "Gay Day" at Disney World would be absolutely appalled if they actually attended such an event.
