Hmm, I guess I should have quoted him...makes my posts look a bit out of place now, but whatever. I'm not deleting them.
After looking at a few of his posts in Sports, I decided he was a fraud anyway, as in someone creating a persona to mess with our minds. I believe the words that tipped me off were something like "God ruled with an iron fist & so should we". Sorry, no sale.
LMM, when I first click on the thread, I see his posts for just a second & then they are gone. Weird.
I have seen the same thing happen with other banned posters, Joy.
Sometimes the posts stay, sometimes they go. Seems to be an option for the mods. One may be turning it on while the other turns it off!
David, I know Clinton started Gay Pride month, Obama just expanded it. Its silly to have any named month. If it is to be fair, there should be opposites following each other. White history month followed by black, GLT followed by straight, Native American followed by immigrants...................
See my point? It has to be all or nothing.

Is incest the "new civil rights issue" of 2040?
OMG, that's a scary thought, but almost possible, with the rapid decline in morals.
There is no such thing as a "rapid decline" in morals. Morality has and always will evolve in fits and starts. Biblical morality is wholly different from our modern versions, for example. The way we treated black Americans as recently as the 1960s was immoral.
Morality in the US is much different from that in the jungles of South America.
I believe it is immoral to deny rights to Americans who only wish to form legal unions for the purposes of stable relationships. That is good for America and good for the taxpayer base.
I believe it is immoral for my government to poke its nose into the private sexual preference of consenting adults.
It is none of your or my or the government's business.

Of course not. If you were paying attention in class, you would know that I already stated that there are very sound, medical reasons why close relatives should not be allowed to marry.
Before you ask, polygamy promotes inequality so "no" to that, too.
That has not a damm thing to do with how two consenting adult men or women choose to show their love for each other.
It's none of your friggin business.

Yeah, well we live by the law and the law says men can't marry men and women can't marry women. Case closed.

Well, they can't break the law because no government will marry them. That isn't the issue. I think people are saying that the law should change. Did you support the racist laws that kept blacks from eating in a restaurant, or attending a certian school? To me, the anti-gay crowd is the modern day KKK.

More and more convinced every day that these boards are just your playground where you troll any topic you can find in order to get a rise out of people.
Your logic (or purposeful lack thereof), your tactics, and your sentence structure give you away every time.
Just go find another hobby already.

Medical reasons??? Two consenting adult men? What would be the medical reason two men, or two women for that matter, could not marry?
I understand the medical reasoning for REPRODUCTION by male/female...but same sex? I'm interested in hearing about this.

That was on of the most egregious violations of American rights in the history of this country and all you have to say about it is "so"? Real nice, William. It's strange how all the right wingers will call me Hitler and a commie, but I never hear a peep about comments like these.

Hey, I really don't care what you think. Sounds like from what you're saying it is more important that he's black than intelligent. Typical B.S.
On a lighter note.....thanks for the wish Ron P. I'm sure they make cards for this sort of thing now. Personally, my door doesn't swing that way but it's nice to know I have so many options when it comes to things to celebrate.

Both are important. Although, we probably need about 20 or 25 more years of affirmative action, his election is a huge step. Now, if they will just give African-Americans the reparations that they deserve, we will be on the right track.
[BTW, we have a black man as President.]
wrong,wrong,wrong. We have a BI-Racial president. This angers me,,,,,the very fact the woman who carried this person for 9 months and gave birth to him was a WHITE woman.

Exactly! The US is still yet to have a "black" president.

Who give what to whom? I never owned a slave, nor my parents or grandparents. Who owes it?
What is it? The slave traders bought and sold slaves and most of them were Arab or African.
The Arab slave trade lasted more than a millennium.[93][94] The medieval scholar and traveller Ibn Battuta states several times that he was given or purchased slaves.[95] The Arab or Middle Eastern slave trade is thought to have originated with trans-Saharan slavery.[96][97] Arab, Indian, and Oriental traders were involved in the capture and transport of slaves northward across the Sahara desert and the Indian Ocean region into Arabia and the Middle East, Persia, Central Asia and the Indian subcontinent.[98][99] The slave trade from East Africa to Arabia was dominated by Arab and African traders in the coastal cities of Zanzibar, Dar Es Salaam and Mombasa.[99][100] In lower Iraq black Zanj slaves constituted more than half the total population.[101] The Moors, starting in the 8th century, raided coastal areas of the Mediterranean, and became known as the Barbary pirates.

You're of the scientific bent right?
You should know that that which does not advance the evolution of the human species is undesirable. Homosexuality as a genetic trait should have died out a long time ago. It hasn't. To me, that makes it a aberration of the norm, not a new norm coalescing.
In fact, perhaps in a few decades our "moral blinders" will fall off and we'll see that polygamy IS beneficial and that monogamy is just an old social construct born of religion and superstition. It's continued practice merely stagnates our overall progress along the evolutional highway. The proliferation of the seed of sterile males will pioneer new horizons of genetic advancement.
In other words, you just hate gays, right? That is all you have to say. Your post sounds like a bunch of Hitler gobbledy****.
Why is it your answer to every argument is that "you people hate gays?" I dont know of a single gay person that I hate. I dislike their actions, but I love the person. If you're going to stand up for gays atleast come up with a better retaliation than "you just hate gays." And even though I do not agree with polygamy atleast he is thinking somewhat scientifically. It is true that typically anything that does not advance the evolution of a species eventually dies off. Its Darwins "survival of the fittest". And being homosexual definitely doesnt help the species.

There getting the reparations they deserve you blathering idiot. There is not a person left alive that has ever been or owned a slave.Just because part of the black,and white,and hispanic community choose to be enslaved by the welfare system doesnt mean the deserve reparations or special rights.
