As the xtian members of this board demonstrate they can be persuaded to buy just about any pile of shit that someone dreams up.
That's why I don't see why some here have a problem with me. I am not advocating crime or violence by merely saying "bullshit".
If one can look at the claims of others and say rightfully, as you did here "That makes no sense" then objecting to word choice is a matter of comfort, not truth to the objection.
Reality is needing food. Reality is needing shelter. Reality is needing love. Reality is needing the right to bitch without fear of your government or neighbor. Everything else is merely personal predilection and no more deserving value than any other claim any other human may make, including mine.
