Those videos explain a lot. Now I understand why those strange men in black were roaming the halls with giant packs of "clay" when I was working there late at night. They said they were just patching rust holes in support beams, but now I know the truth! Damn if only I, or one of the count...

Good for them. I agree it is a good strategy for gay activists to distance themselves from other sexual minorities, but I do hope those other sexual minorities get some coattail rights should gays ever be successful. Any defeat for Team Jesus is a good thing. A society of open sexuality sounds good ...

Right. Thanks Rekaar. Your ability to explain the deatils of government in such simple black and white terms is staggering. Perhaps you should consider taking up a career teaching civil responsibility to third graders. Spending is not "set" by Congress any more than the President, for exam...

Its not an edit. My orignal post still says exactly what it said. I did not see the need to create a new post to also reply to Fash, since at the time my post was on the bottom.

EDIT: though maybe I should have. It gets my signature out there one more time.

Key word asshole....you DENY THEM RIGHTS. RIF A civil union was "GRANT" them new rights they haven't had to this point. Celebrate it. Don't be such a negative CUNT. Emancipation granted new rights to former slaves. They should have all just celebrated and not demanded other stupid things ...

All he did was die for mankind. Yep he was a pussy. All he did was make one of the greatest statements of all time, "Love thy neighbour as thyself" Christians are guilty in a lot of cases of messing up the message, and the perspective. This is so true. When interpreting the words of Jesus...

I'm with Winnow on this one. There is a lot I would give up in exchange for immortality. The idea of ultimately maintaining my consciousness in a computer is a very attractive notion. That or a long line of replacement clones. Not sure which Sci-fi but getting closer to reality I wold prefer.

How was riding in the rear two cars of a train (where whites were not permitted) restricting the liberty of blacks (or whites). They both got to the same place at the same time. Same with the buses - riding in the back for blacks - no big deal, right? Same with water fountains, bathrooms, hotel room...

Laws that limit your freedom are there to protect the freedoms of your fellow citizens, and here's the thing, gays and abortions (and how the hell do you idiots get that in one topic?) don't impinge on your freedoms, other than the freedom to be a bible thumping bigot. They got it in one topic beca...

And so, in the dar hierarchy of values, what holds the top rung of importance if not life? It varies. It varies for you as well, if you are being honest. In some cases money is more important than human life. In the case we are talking about, liberty is more important than human life. I'll use mone...

Making the guy equally responsible for the baby NOT the abortion is quite simple with DNA testing etc. You do understand that Schwarzneger's "Junior" was fictional, right? Making a man equally responsible as a woman for the concenquences of pregnancy is not possible. This is an issue of l...

That's why the Religous Right always falls back to those straw man arguments. Of course abortion should not be used as a means of contraception (something, mind you, that is definitionally impossible - excepting one case from Christian mythology).

I disagree with Lohrno's answer to your question. The reason you can't kill my mother is because it infringes upon her liberty. That is enough.

Most people can use all drugs, no matter how “hard,” responsibly. Note, responsibly does not equate with "risk free." Taking any drug can be dangerous, but those risks are quantifiably lower than other perfectly legal activities done for recreation (skiing, diving, driving, etc.). Drawing ...

I feel all drugs should be legal to consume, manufacture and sell. I feel likewise that people should be held responsible for all actions they take while under the influence under the same terms as if they were not under the influce (and feel the same should be true of alcohol).

It is unfair and irrational to demand that christains abstain from using their faith to determine theirs. Yes, of course. But in EXACTLY the same way it is unfair to ask a racist to abstain from using his or her racism when determining whether Blacks should be allowed to marry whites (as one of cou...

Don't get me wrong, bigotry is not limited to the Republicans though, but so many campaign on it that I think it's fair to associate them with doing it. I certainly agree with that. Republicans promoting these laws and campaigning on them are the bigots. Democrats are merely cowards where these iss...

Lohrno, Adex is not asking merely for freedom of speach. He is asking that his bigotted posstions on gays be accepted as a mere political difference. He fully has my support when it comes to his right to critisize gays for being gay. He did not ask for that, however, he asked for me to respect his p...

This is about all of us respecting each other's right to vote their moral code. Why? because it's a channel for compromise in a situation where few methods exist.

This is not new with Bush (and the Christian right he represents), Tenuvil. Kerry's stated possitions on gays are pretty much identical.

The laws we are debating have no relation to homosexual acts. They relate exclusively to homosexuals.

Respect each other's right to vote. It's the great moderator. This is absolutly incorrect. Voting is only the great moderator if all laws are applied evenly.

So it is your suggestion that the Klan's (and to be "evenhanded" the Black sepratist's) possitions should be respected? That the idea that the races should be "pure" (anti-miscogenation laws pronounced unconstitutional a mere 20 years ago). It is your suggestion that the idea tha...

Aaeamdar

That's because the Christian right's perspective on gay rights is that gays should have fewer rights than everyone else. Of course you will get no respect for such possitions. Would you expect Blacks and Jews to "respect" the opinions of the Klan? It should not come as any great shock that...
