What? Well thought out, logical posting? Too much for you?

"Hey whateverist! can I suck your dick whateverist? I'm so glad people like me whateverist! Haha top banter whateverist! Check out this guy that dares to challenge my stupid posts even though I'm being so polite whateverist!"

Le sigh.

^Crossless, this is also a great example of that imaginary translation of my words I was talking about.

"See what I'm dealing with" all of a sudden translates to... well, you can see it above. I won't repeat. Wink
"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."

Are we done with our serious, honest and respectful discussion, then, gonna leave me hanging on that limb..lol?

I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Have you been taking lessons from Huggy? He is your "brother in christ" after all...

I have: my brother in law is inexplicably insistent in his views on the gays. Which is a problem, because my mother-in-law is, by the looks of things, about to marry a woman. Doesn't stop him from ruining family events by voicing his views.

The point, such as it is, is that you need to remember that you wouldn't always be able to label that kind of person as a "radical minority," because for the majority of your religion's history they've been the exact opposite. Homophobia was a big part of the crucible which forged your current religion, it's present in the holy books you use... dismissing all of that as being the views of the minority seems glib, in the face of the history of discrimination that your religion possesses, where the views of those signs were echoed exactly.

So are you saying we should still generalize all Christians as thinking gays are vile?

Because it's just another nothing post where all you're doing is slurping down the dicks of people who you think respect you.

Ok, sorry it did not meet your standards.

I thought we already determined that no one did that in the first place....why are we here again?

I hope all the people who accused me of being thin skinned and flying off the handle are reading what Napo is saying to me and how I am responding.

Even Min wrote me a kind PM just telling me hang in there and that I'm doing fine. That's when you know things are getting serious down in here. :-p

CL, I give you five gold stars for driving the conversations on these threads.  You always get a multitude of responses regardless of the topics and it certainly does a lot to keep people engaged.  You should get paid.

With that being said, I think it's about time I stop responding to Napo's posts on this thread...

It's gotten way beyond the level I should have entertained in the first place.

Napo, you seem very upset. I hope your day gets better.
