    Simple. You broke it, you own it. Good luck getting out now.

    Wriggly slippery fellow, isn't he?

    I will continue to make an assumption that there is some reason you will not identify the "lifestyle choices" you disagree with. All the gay people I know have lifestyles that are similar to the straight people I know. Except that they live as same sex couples. Other than that they seem to me to live the same way as everyone else. There is only one "lifestyle choice" that is different. Therefore I will simply have to believe that is the one you object to. And you would not be alone. Thankfully this is changing, and probably even you are beginning to realize that it is really none of your business, and it harms no one. Old habits die hard. I'm 62 years old. I too was taught to hate gay people from a young age. Before I even knew what it meant. I changed and so are you changing.

    No you don't get to turn it back on me. I ask again, what do you mean by "lifestyle"?
  5. gowlerk
    Again, what is it about their "lifesyle" that you disagree with. Is it anything other than the type of sex they have? And why can't you just say so?

    And carries the biggest stick.

    Follow the money. Then get back to me. Energy companies have invested huge amounts of time and money into fighting against the idea of global warming in the past. Although now the biggest ones have come around to admitting the truth.

    What kind is crap is this? There are no "pro" AWG industries. There are no giant corporations or Koch brothers funding climate science. You really should stick to topics that you have a hot clue about.

    No one is calling you a homophobe, but what do you mean when you say "I do not agree with their lifestyle"? What is it that you disagree with? The "joke" that brenthutch made that set us all off on this tangent was: Or don't let a dude stick his penis up your butt if you are a dude. A simple behavioral modification. This is an example of victim blaming. It is a pretty clear example of what we call "homophobia". It indicates that the person making the statement believes that if a gay man gets AIDS it is his own fault. It is basically the position of many people in the Ronald Reagan era when AIDS first emerged in the USA. No matter how you interpret "phobia", this attitude is part of what we have come to call "homophobia". BTW, is it okay to let a dude stick his penis up your butt if you are not a dude?

    Oh fer god’s sake, someone just please tell me how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

    You should still stick to what you know best.

    Nor am I. Good old Wikipedia has a little wrap up on this that largely agrees with your conclusion. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soul_in_the_Bible

    Think again. More heat means higher evaporation and more humidity. Climate change is a change in the average. Weather is complicated. Again, stick to skydiving, you seem to be able to understand that.

    Would this thing you are wondering about commonly be called a soul? I'm unclear if you are speculating about a possibility, or stating your belief.

    A local guy here has come up with a way to make some fun and cash..... https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/climatologist-tipping-point-1.5418288

    That's easy. It turns back into the chemical energy that generated it to begin with.

    You do realize that those experiments have been completely and thoroughly debunked, right? They have never been repeated and are considered to be inaccurate. It it gives you comfort or make you wonder, fine. But it was flawed science. I would also note that he weighed dying dogs as well and found that they had no soul. I would say that the killing of these 15 dogs to do this experiment makes me think the good Dr. definitely had no soul. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/weight-of-the-soul/

    Marc Cohen in "Walking In Memphis" (He is Jewish) Now Muriel plays piano Every Friday at the Hollywood And they brought me down to see her And they asked me if I would Do a little number And I sang with all my might She said "Tell me are you a Christian child?" And I said "Ma'am, I am tonight"

    That's what LSD is for. Personally I experience my sense of peace and oneness with everything simply by knowing what I am made from and where it came from. I am one with the universe. Even if there is a creator I am one with her as well. After that it does not matter. Ron needs what he needs, I need what I need, you need what you need.

    All of which leads me to decide simply that god is a myth, a creation of man to serve the needs of man. I have no need of a god and no need to worship. Therefore there is no god, except as a debate topic. And one I am quickly tiring of. And of course the last straw, the very last item that makes me comfortable, is the fact that even a creator has to have a origin in any kind of logic I am capable of. Which leads me straight to the conclusion that we can never answer these questions no matter how evolved our science becomes. Peace.

    In terms humans can understand, is god the creator, or the overseer? Kind of a straw boss. And if so, who does She report to? Actually God is the woman who put the land on the back of the turtle. We are all on Turtle Island. And it will be the Truth if I decide so. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turtle_Island_(North_America)
