I humbly request we retire the “then you hate fags too!” parry, at least for the remainder of this thread. It’s specious, but worse, completely ineffectual.
Miller, I’ll agree about the first* but the second was a story about a case of spousal abuse. So I don’t think that’s a good example.
*Although I do think the girl had some self-esteem issues there. (NOT so much because she was into BDSM, just some statements she made about herself)
Can you cite where anyone used that? I must’ve missed the post where anyone did that.
Tut-tut. So you hate the gays too?
Man I wish I could “like” posts on here the way one can on Facebook.
I should have reread my post. Please know that it should read “I do NOT think that people who practice poly are evil or bad”. I did say so in my post, but my last line does not say that. :eek: I apologize.
Missed the edit window.
mwas: I am tired of my posts not being read for comprehension. If you had read it, you would know that I said that CEs condemn homosexuals to hell. I myself do not believe in hell. And again, as I said in my post, (which you quoted and then misunderstood or misconstrued), I do not consider (I have never considered) homosexual marriage or adoption of children to be a threat to the nuclear family (or the extended family, come to that).
I have quickly tired of this rather silly discussion and am done here. Enjoy yourselves.
I read your post and comprehended it just fine. CE’s don’t condemn people to Hell as their doctrine doesn’t believe that they have such a power. But even so it doesn’t really matter. I am only concerned with how people treat people in THIS world. It’s all about how you treat people in the here and now.
I didn’t think you did think that homosexuality was a threat to children. I was just pointing out your double-standard. One kind of sexuality is ok, another kind is deviant, and how you decide is arbitrary and based mostly on an ‘ick’ factor.
Finally we capture one for our team!
Take that you pinko liberals!
Now, if we can make a tenther or birther out of him…
I think you should go for Climate Truther. AGW is a hoax, the CRU is corrupt!!!
We’ve got that area pretty well staffed.
He might be a good addition to our 2nd ammendement team.
Thank you.
Note that his next move will be to back off on his initial statement, saying that “maybe he overstated it a bit” or “perhaps he was just too harsh” or (my personal favorite and his), his “wife” will allegedly have been reading over his shoulder and is telling him he’s being an asshole so he retracts what he said.
Dopers who aren’t as familiar with his trolling will then congratulate him on having “class”. The rest of us will just roll our eyes and wait for next season of “Brother Dio’s Traveling Trolling Show”.
No, I didn’t. This sentence doesn’t even make sense. “Polygamous couple” is a contradiction in terms, and polygamous people are married, by definition. I didn’t “object” to anything, I just asked you why you changed the subject from polyamory to polygamy.
Polygamy refers to nothing but the marriage of a male to multiple wives. It’s a marital status which may or may not be polyamorous in a mutual sense. Most polygamous marriages do not include sexual or romatic relationships between the women, nor do they allow the women to have relationships with other men.
Most significantly for my posts, however, all I did was ask you why you changed the subject from polyamory to polygamy. Even if you want to say that polygamy is sub-category of polyamory, that’s irrelevant since the scenario that spawned this thread did not involve polygamy.
That person wasn’t part of a polygamous marriage. Please try to be precise with your terminology. The words “polyamory,” and “Polygamy” are not interchangeable.
yes, you do. The only difference, apparently, is that I don’t care what you think about my family, and am not going to get all butthurt and whiny about it.
I don’t give fuck one about them.
Nope. I never defined what the gender of the parents had to be. It’s whoever the legal parents/guardians are. If a gay couple is raising a child, then they are parents with a family. If they choose to fuck people besides each other, then they are fucking people outside the family. People do not become family members and co-parents just because you fuck them.
It’s NOT the same, moron. Pay attention to what I actually say. There’s nothing fucking hypocritical about it. “Non-traditional” has nothing to do with it. Making shit up that people didn;t say is trolling.
Read the Fenris post I just replied to.
If you think I’m trolling, fucking REPORT it, asshole,
For the record, I have nothing to retract, I overstated nothing. I’m absolutely right on the money, and I don’t give a shit if it hurts your little feelings. Saying that fucking lots of people is the same as being gay is fucking moronic.
ETA, what’s with the scare quotes over “wife?”
No more than saying being gay is just like being straight.
It is just like being straight.
Except that the sex can NEVER result in children. Other than that, exactly the same.
