Add childish to that.
Now, children, play nicely.
Remember the civility thing...lol...lol
Add childish to that.
In truth, so-called right and wrong are not black and white but infinite shades of gray.That is a position that I find intolerable and to be a complete cop-out. There are clear 'right' and 'wrongs' in society and this progressive position that is being pushed by you and others is disgusting.
Much of what is being pushed by progressives is nothing more than the decay of morals and common sense.
For how you define the word "abnormal", do you consider gays to be "abnormal"?
Abnormally Fabulous! :ssst:
The better question is what is the purpose of the pleasure. I have always thought that the pleasure was there to get you to partake in the act and nothing else. Though the pleasure is not triggered exactly as such, I still believe that is the only reason for its existence in the formula.
It's not what I would deem as a high-ranking sin, but a sin none-the-less. But I suppose with my traditional morality it makes me completely illogical and incapable of being a part of the intelligentsia.
To put it blatantly, embracing traditional morality means you have embraced the moral code of a militant, desert people that existed about 2,000 years ago. Illogical, no? You were likely indoctrinated into it at a young age and have chosen to ignore the epistemological question of "why do I believe what I believe?" for fear of losing your place in the group that you have come to identify yourself with and rely upon. Without said group you would struggle to make sense of the cold world in which you live. If you need proof of this, simply ask yourself if you can envision morals in a world without God.
Your votes simply aim to reduce society to a dichotomous, teleological philosophy of virtue and vice rather than embracing an ethical system based upon simple reasoning and the natural human capacities to empathize.
Of course they are abnormal. Anything other than usual is abnormal.
Or maybe you just think thats the way to go, and don't give a crap about people bashing your moral integrity to serve their own needs.
Of course, I have yet to actually meet anyone who truly adheres to traditional morality. The whole stoning people to death for adultery and subjugating women thing tends not to go over so well in modern society. People like yourself tend to practice a bastardized form of traditional morality.
CT! How ya been?
Where do you get this stuff? You were likely indoctrinated into it at a young age and have chosen to ignore the psychological question of "why do I want what I want?" for fear of losing your place in the group that you have come to identify yourself with and rely upon. Without said group you would struggle to make sense of the cold world in which you live.
If you need proof of this, simply ask yourself if you can envision making love to a woman.
For how you define the word "abnormal", do you consider gays to be "abnormal"?
And yet if you met my mother, who is gay, the only thing you would notice as abnormal is her exceptional taste. My mother's house is decorated perfectly. Her clothes are, while not expensive, very good looking and compliment her very well. In pretty much every way, you would see a perfectly normal person. Does one or two traits make a whole person abnormal?
I am abnormally good looking and have a perfect emotional balance... which is fairly abnormal.
If you can't understand purpose when its right there in your face what in the hell is the point of this. Its like trying to teach reading to person that is blind. I'm done with this nonsense.
Thats exactly why I pulled out of the threads...its pointless to continue. The supporters keep saying the same thing over and over and asking the same questions that youve already answered. They want to badger people into agreeing with them

It saddens me how many people voted "yes"
What are you all, 12 years old? I don't think anyone who is an adult or a teenager would harbor an anti-gay sentiment.
