possibly the gayest thing i have ever read on here

I did not say it was BO fault for gas prices, I was asking if you guys could educate me on the rise in gas prices when he became President. I have a number friends that are gay (male and female) and I dont approve of their lifestyle but I dont hold that against them as a person. They have never done anything to me that would hurt our friendship. I believe that marriage should be between a man and a woman. I dont agree with gay marriage and my gay friends know that, but that does not bother them. It is my opinion. As far as gay rights.. anything specific you asking about? Women's pay... anything specific? I believe that a person (black, white, etc, male, female) should get paid for the job they do. I don't support affirmative action either. The comment about more single women over the age of 18 in this country more than married women has a number of values. I am not sure how many single women you know that are around the age of 28 to 34, but statistically they are the big supporters of pro-choice. From what I have seen women that are NOT married seem to think they want to keep their rights because they want to have the flexibility in their "unstable" life. When I say unstable I mean, no husband, no kids. When a woman is not married or single for a long time I have seen a lot of women become bitter to the opposite sex and start to say "nah, I really dont want kids" when earlier in their life they did want kids, they just could not find a mate. I have seen it happen in most if not all of friends from West coast to East coast. They start to get bitter and sounds cheesy "biological clock" is tick tick tick. Changes their mentality and values. Since there are more single women over married women then that is the vote that gives them the flexibility they feel they are losing is even greater. "I dont want someone to take away my right to choose what I can and cant do!" I dont support pro-choice. I have seen people use it as a form of birth control to have an abortion. I believe in abortion in the form of rape, incest or the life of the mother. I have changed that perspective over the last couple years.

Yes, you made a prediction whilst believing the polls that you liked, and dismissed the ones you did not like. The ones you did not like were obviously right, in the end. The point stands: you decided to believe what you preferred. Indeed I do, but I don't actually have a problem with people being delusional, in most cases they are happier for it. It's only when they want to push their delusions onto others (or compromise their offspring's education) that it starts to bother me. You missed the point slightly. Your laws might be based on religious teachings but I'm interested in the question of whether religion is the source of morality or whether they hijacked it. History teaches us it's mostly the latter. And it's a good thing that they did, too, for the most part. You look back to the point where the US was founded. I look back to a time when Christianity did not yet exist. But that's why your countries' "religious inspired" laws are pretty much the same as the laws in every other mildly civilized country in the world. With or without religion you would have ended up with the SAME rules. You can go ahead and claim that in your case religion played a large role, fine, but it's irrelevant.

People still buy games on disc?

Dieing. Christina Aguilera Hrrrngg.

Well, I voted for Hank in the senate, if you all must know. Now you know where my loyalties lie right meow.

It certainly isn't. You have to do a heck of a lot of picking and choosing in "holy books" to get to something approaching a moral yard stick. Not to mention everybody's interpretation tends to differ. Basic morality is something all of us (minus a few psychopaths) have, and the rules of morality are anything but static unlike religion. What could be considered ethical 100 years ago can very well be unethical or immoral today. The holy books haven't changed a letter meanwhile. But religion does like to take credit for it, that much is true. In the meantime it's fascinating to watch some of the more "enthusiastic" practitioners of the Christian religions rail against government policies that aid the poor. There's plenty of quotes to find in their good book that would suggest the Jesus character was rather fond of the idea of the rich giving to the poor, if they wanted to be truly "blessed". Selective reading I suppose.

Hmmmm Singer Porsche and XJ220... Good shit, sir!
