turtlespeed 226 #302 July 3, 2013 billvon>Nope, it makes you celibate. It also does not make you gay. Being gay or straight is not a decision you make on who to sleep with; it is programming you come with to make you want to do one of those two things. In other words, there are not three orientations (gay, straight or celibate) there are two orientation axes (gay to straight) and two decision axes (celibate to promiscuous.) You could also add "asexual" to that I guess - someone who is not attracted to anyone. Wait a minute here, you fail to mention Bisexuals. Which I believe hurts your polygamy argument. How can we deny the rights of Bisexuals to "Marry" the loves of their lives? Fred (Gay) loves Shaggy (Bi) who also loves both Fred (Gay) and Thelma (Bi). So Shaggy should be, in the opinion of the Gay rights proponents, able to Marry both Thelma and Fred. ETA: Here is a way to fix that: Thelma Marries Shaggy, and Shaggy enters into a Civil Union with Fred.

THAT is a social issue, not legal, and has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with benefits and rights. I think I would agree with you, except that legally that is still separate yet equal if you are not allowing them the use of the legal definition of their relationship like everybody else. So, it technically does deal with rights still Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RonD1120 62 #304 July 3, 2013 There are two kinds of sex. One is moral sex as ordained by God. The other is immoral sex as initiated by Satan. Moral sex is between a male husband and a female wife. Immoral sex includes many varieties such as those below. Fornication either heterosexual or homosexual. Adultery either heterosexual or homosexual. Of these types heterosexual is natural and homosexual is perverted. Perverted meaning it is contrary to the natural behavior of procreation. Perverted sex takes in other classifications such as pedophilia, necromancy and bestiality to name a few. With SCOTUS overturning DOMA, immoral perverted sex, as a general classification, is given equal status to moral sex. This decision came about due to social pressure from growing unrest within our society. About a year ago I stated I would no longer argue the right or wrong of homosexuality because I realized the trend cannot be reversed. Our culture is sliding further into the spiral of decadence. It is this trending throughout the world that will continue and usher in the fulfillment of the end time Biblical prophecy. War in the Mideast is another major indicator as well. As Billy Graham stated, you can hear the sound of the approaching hoof beats.Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

THAT is a social issue, not legal, and has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with benefits and rights. Let's assume you live about 30 miles from the DZ. You can get there by driving the most direct route (about 30 miles), but you could also get there (eventually) by heading in the opposite direction and traveling roughly 24,000 miles, across mountains, over oceans, etc. Suppose a law was passed that said that green skinned people with shells could not go directly to the DZ. The law doesn't ban them from the DZ, it only says they have to take the 24,000 mile route to get there. They can still skydive any time they want, the law doesn't restrict that, it just says they have to travel the long way around to get there. How likely do you think it is that they will ever be able to skydive? Over 1,000 laws, rules, and regulations refer to "marriage". Every one would have to be amended, voted on by Congress, and passed in order for "civil unions" to have the same effect as "marriage". This is the 24,000 mile route. Recognizing same-sex unions as a "marriage" involves one law in each State, the 30-mile route. I suspect you would be quite unhappy if you were singled out to have to travel 24,000 miles to get to the DZ.

mr2mk1g 10 #310 July 3, 2013 RonD1120 Perverted sex takes in other classifications such as pedophilia, necromancy and bestiality to name a few. I hope that's an open list; I've never had any of those kinds of sex, but I've definately had perverted sex! Quote With SCOTUS overturning DOMA, immoral perverted sex, as a general classification, is given equal status to moral sex. The case has nothing to do with sex. It only addresses whether or not same sex couples get the same tax break as heterosexual couples. No one actually has to get buttfucked (unless they want to - lube presumably is optional though I'm given to understand that provides significant assistance). In keeping with equality, any buttfucking, if said buttfucking were to take place, is without reference generally to the gender and/or sexuality of either buttfucker or buttfuckee. IE, "moral sex" between man and wife can, under the law at least, include buttfucking if the parties mutually consent to the same, (though I understand He has something to say about that also).

None of the men have been sentenced. William Montgomery pleaded guilty Tuesday during a hearing in U.S. District Court in Jackson to two hate crime counts -- one involving the fatal rundown of Anderson and the other involving the assault of another black man, who was not identified in court documents. In addition, Jonathan Gaskamp pleaded guilty to two hate crime counts in the assault of the unidentified black man. ============================ >I will repeat, why is it okay for a black person to publicly threaten a white person, or >wear a trevon shirt at the BET awards, and nothing gets said or done, yet if a white >person publicly threatens a black person or wore a Zimmerman shirt, that person >would be crucified in the court of public opinion.

kallend 2,112 #324 July 3, 2013 From Wikipedia: Bigotry is the state of mind of a bigot: someone who, as a result of their prejudices, treats other people with hatred, contempt, or intolerance on the basis of a person's ethnicity, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, disability, socioeconomic status, or other characteristics. Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. described bigotry in the following quotation: "The mind of a bigot is like the pupil of the eye; the more light you pour upon it, the more it will contract." The origin of the word bigot and bigoterie (bigotry) in English dates back to at least 1598, via Middle French, and started with the sense of "religious hypocrite". This meaning still survives in Italian, in the cognate word bigotto. The exact origin of the word is unknown, but it may have come from the German bei and Gott, or the English by God. And don't we just see that here!... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
