How about “fucked in the head?” Does that work for you?

I could go either way on the baby-fucking thing, but one more TLDR line-by-line rebuttal post and I’m organizing a lynch mob.

No. He has his ACTIONS under control. He has never molested a little kid no…but he still has distorted thinking (ala borderline personality disorder or sociopathy)  
You’re right…he doesn’t have a mental illness like depression or schizeophernia…but he DOES have significently distorted thinking, which is a hallmark of mental disorders. (ala borderline personality disorder or sociopathy or extreme narcissim (which actually is appropreate since it does seem like most pedos are extremely narcissitic)

Once again - what is your qualification to make these diagnoses?

Are you kidding me? I hate Creationists as much as anyone else, but at least most of them don’t molest children.

No, it sounded sarcastic and just a little exasperated.

You don’t have to hate someone to think they are, as they say, “fucked in the head”.

Congratulations. That must be the dumbest thing I’ve seen on the board this year. Creationism doesn’t ‘damage’ kids. They can quite easily reject it when they become old enough to think these things out for themselves and I’m sure many do. Their brains haven’t been damaged, nor have they even been brainwashed. True, most of them are as unintelligent as their parents but that’s neither here nor there.

You’re seriously comparing this to the trauma of rape or molestation? You are one sorry individual.

I don’t have children of my own, but if I did, and had to choose between a stranger telling my kid that Adam & Eve rode dinosaurback 6000 years ago and… the alternative…

I’d say it’s more idiotic to respond to someone in all seriousness when they’ve already indicated several hours before that they were being facetious, but hey, everyone has their own standards of what qualifies as “idiotic”, I guess.

Well, guess what, Shamus; sarcasm is an endangered species because the sentiments you expressed facetiously have been expressed sincerely right on this very message board.
