Don't act like she killed your cat. It was hardly anything close to unforgiveable.

And get help. The ego in that sentence is tripping my alarms hard.

You can't tell me what is unforgiveable for me and what not as this is rather subjective.

What ego?

I'm sorry you seem to think so. I think, what she did was unforgiveable. After I was reluctant to expound on my views at first, she first misquoted me, then put words in my mouth and tried to persuade me to answer in this manner. It's all there to see. When I finally did answer here she just dismissed my answers completely. Fuck that. If you can't accept people's opinions don't ask for them.
 I mean really this ?!
A asks B: Tell me what you think:
B says to A: I think so.
A says to B: your opinion doesn't matter.

I have rewritten my questions for you in my post 169 (right above). I have carefully reviewed what I wrote and am quite certain that I did not misquote you or put words in your mouth this second time around.  Shy

It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

The one that's telling you that someone saying your opinions don't matter is unforgiveable. And the same one you've been displaying most of your time here. Like calling people bitches over nothing.

I'm serious. That's not a good sign.

Mini, do you have a facebook account? I'd like to be friends with you on facebook, if you will have me. Shy

If so, just let me know and I will send you a PM with my information so you can add me.

If not, I totally understand. Let me know!

1. I don't have any idea.
2. I have none.
At least for now.

I don't know. I am not a statesmen nor am I an expert in the matter. You would have to ask one.
You're welcome!

This is the first time I've done this. Please don't be dishonest.

You're ignoring the context of what happened, when I clearly provided it to you and you may go and check what I said. I will repeat myself. She asked my opinion on something while misquoting what I actually said and then putting words in my mouth which I never actually said. She tried to make me sound as though I said something else than what I really said. Then she kept pressuring me until I expounded on my initial views. Opon my doing that she dismissed my opinions altogether. I think this is unforgiveable. If you think not, then I'll keep it in mind and do the same thing to you, just so you can see what it's like, deal?

1. So if you definitively do not think the scenario presented above (stable home, 2 parents) is the ideal scenario, then what do you think would be a better scenario?

(I have numbered these to show that they are two separate questions addressing your two sentences. If you could answer them both, that would greatly help me understand your views. Thank you.)

1. I don't have any idea.
2. I have none.

This should be a lot more straight forward.

You are saying you believe the number of children people are allowed to have should be controlled, and that this should be done by restricting the number of children allowed to be born.

Can you elaborate on how the government should go about dictating the number of children being born, and how the government would reinforce this law?

Thanks so much!

I don't know. I am not a statesmen nor an expert in the matter. You would have to ask one.
You're welcome!

Fair enough, thanks!

I understand if you don't want to forgive me, but I do hope you believe me when I say that I did not "put words in your mouth" or "misquote you" on purpose. I had simply misunderstood what you had said and was asking for further clarification, as needed.

It's not that I don't want to forgive you, but I don't believe in the concept of forgiving. It's useless and redundant. You did wrong by me, whether you know it or not. I can't be sure if you're lying or not. I was quite clear on what I was saying using words like "might be" and you translated those in " are/is", for example. Go check.

The only thing I despise more than religion is Facebook.  They both do approximately the same amount of harm but FB is growing and religion is shrinking.

I agree, but I'm just curious as to why you're hostile towards them.
