When I objected to this, all you say is to reference my username. So, because I'm a theist, my opinions on this are to be dismissed as merely my "agenda?" I can't just be a person with an opinion like everyone else here because I'm Catholic?
No, it's because your suggestions just happen to coincide with your church's outlook on sexuality. No one is telling you cannot be a real person, so shitcan your martyrdom card and let's get real. When you post an opinion, other people -- and that includes me, I'm a person too -- they have the right to opine as well. And it's my opinion that your opinion is colored by the idea that you need to espouse these beliefs that undergird your outlook as being the be-all of morality. I'm pointing out that no, there's something more basic than that.
Don't like it? Tough shit.

...Which is why I don't understand why the past several months you've been a complete ass hole to me on here. I keep brushing stuff off and giving you other chances, refusing to change my positive opinion of you, but now I'm done. Obviously you have an issue with me and are just continuing to be a prick. Good bye.
You know why? Because while I orginally had a positive opinion of you, I've learnt that you're someone who puts a nice veneer on odious positions. If that makes me a prick, that's okay. I've been called worse by better. You don't have to like my opinion. You don't even have to read it. <shrug>
I think you need to reread your signature and really ponder what it means. Look at your post above in response to my simple point and ask yourself if that signature isn't just empty words. Because from here, that's exactly what it looks like.
And with that, I'm done with this derail.
Umm yeah, my opinions on sexual morality are the same as the Catholic Church's. I'm Catholic. Imagine that! Doesn't mean every time I voice my opinion that it's me having an "agenda," whatever the hell that means. Gimmie a fucking break.
But ok, I get it, you no longer like me. Disappointing since I liked you and considered you a forum buddy, but good to know from here on out.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. 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."
