I feel that way every time I read a post by Lik Rik or Huggy.

"Lik Rik"?

There-s a horrible thought!

I generally try (and succeed) to make my eyes slide on by the idiotic ideas represented by these two yokels. Neo is in the same category. I think that RR and SteveII may have their hearts in the right place, but I generally see their posts as pretty inconsequential as well. I'm with LfC on having to see someone on their way to certain death. That's not "a snowflake", that is "a feeling human being", and I'm in on it.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

RE: Homophobia
Quote:David Cooley, the owner of a gay bar in West Hollywood called the Abbey, wrote on Facebook on Sunday that he and his partner had boarded a flight to Los Angeles from New York when a flight attendant asked if Mr. Cooley’s partner would move from his seat “so a couple could sit together.”

Mr. Cooley said he told the attendant that the two men were a couple and that he wanted to sit with his partner. But the attendant gave Mr. Cooley’s partner a choice: Move for the other couple or get off the plane.

. . . . . . .

A 2017 survey from the liberal think tank Center for American Progress showed that more than 36 percent of L.G.B.T. people hid personal relationships for fear of discrimination. Twelve percent avoided public places like restaurants and stores for the same reason, according to the survey.

Because it undermines traditional marriage as mentioned in the bible.

You know, traditions like...

A man and his brother's widow.
A man and his many wives and concubines.
A man and his rape victim.
A man and his slaves.
A man and the virgin he captures in bsttle.

Plus two people if the same sec together is icky.

Unless they're two chicks, of course.

Or better, two chicks and a guy...

RE: Homophobia
Is it ok to kill gays if they belong to exotic people?
----
On the side note, if there are two men who makes a proposal to whom for a marriage?
And if there are two ladies?
I liked the parts where these old yahoodies tolchock each other and then drink their Hebrew vino, and getting onto the bed with their wives' handmaidens.

And also I've noticed at least one Christian on this forum that is pushing that agenda.

Starting from these kind of posters that conservatives like James Woods are sharing online

you can read more about those posters here:
https://www.them.us/story/behind-the-wei...-community
https://www.them.us/story/fake-pedophile...ter-oregon


Or recently a Christian Group's Director Claimed "Pedophilia is a Part of Homosexuality" and that because of that is just behind a corner to be legalized

starts at 7m:14s




And also on "Right Wing Watch" where they are reporting as they explain:

Quote:on the extreme rhetoric and activities of key right-wing figures and organizations by showing their views in their own words. In this clip, Star Parker asserts that the "B" in "LGBTQ" stands for "bestiality."
https://soundcloud.com/rightwingwatch/rw...bestiality

While at the same time they forget that peadophilia is already legal in US and is kept alive by conservative Christians like themselves.
Like how come I never see conservatives protest against Chris Christie after he did this last year:

In other words why not fight real enemy instead of made up fantasy? Could it be that Christians are bigots and they don't care what is the truth as long as they can persecute people they happen to hate?

Its a straw man argument that I wish Christians (or anyone for that matter) would just drop. These are not the same things and there is not even a verse in the Bible that compares homosexuality with bestiality.

I think it would just be polite behavior to put upsetting images in a spoiler tag with a warning.  This snowflake stuff is BS.  Shaming people for having normal human emotions and sick and twisted.
