Another vote for “Fuck you and fuck your poll, asswipe.” If you wanted an honest poll you would have just made the options “Yes”, “No”, and some form of “Other” (and potentially a fourth option involving pie). But you clearly didn’t want an honest poll; you wanted to be an asswipe. And so you are. And none of what you wrote has anything to do with what God wants or is. ---
