I have three friends who are in same sex relationships and doing just fine despite your arrogant contempt. Two of the couples have children. Their children show no signs of dysfunction.
Meanwhile I’ve read three books about polygamy that presented a very unflattering view of it.
So puritanical, let’s spice things up a bit. A man is married to three wives. Sister wife A and sister wife B are having oral and/or anal sex with each other while the husband watches and gets off but does not have any direct sexual contact with either of them. Sister wife C who was blissfully ignorant of such activities walks in on them. How many cases of adultery have occurred, and is the husband guilty of sodomy or onanism?
NO, that is just your opinion, and it only has the value I give it, and I give it zero value. As for your deluded mind, you can think whatever nonsense you want, with my blessing. I care nothing for what any Heathen or Democrat thinks, and address nothing to them, and hope to teach them nothing at all. I speak only to Conservative Believers and only have interest in them.
This forum is about debate. Debate is not throwing out opinions randomly, it is about creating and challenging viewpoints by use of logical argument and evidence. If you want a discussion that involves a lot of “Yuh-HUH!” “Nuh-UH!” and “that’s what YOU say!” then there are plenty of other forums where that’s the norm. If asking you to support what you claim is too onerous, first of all, this might not be the right place for you, and second, it tends to confirm what quite a few of us already suspect, in that your case simply cannot be supported by evidence for those who do not have the unquestioning faith that you already have.
I hope you realize what an enormous, obvious contradiction this is. You do condemn, you have categorically condemned a large number of Americans already in this thread. If you’re going to be critical of other people, just do it and don’t claim that you are a live-and-let-live sort of person.
In any case, I see that you have failed to respond to my question about why plural marriage is always good, specifically as it applies to the case of Warren Jeffs. Not that I really expected any kind of substantive answer from you on that point. I am surprised that you doubled-down on the “polygamy is always good,” though – one would think that a well-known case of serial rape and child abuse would make most people think about the question a little more.
Huh. As a once and future democratic candidate for elected office I find myself bemused. But you did say my post was intelligent, though. So I got that going for me.
It’s not a rule, it’s a board convention. We have a form called Great Debates which, not surprisingly, is for debates. As opposed to opinions which go in, not surprisingly, In My Humble Opinion or Mundane Pointless Stuff I Must Share.
Your thread belongs in one of those two forums, and so I’ve reported it for a forum change. I predict I will be right. That is, if this thread doesn’t get closed and “further action” taken.
If you don’t want to post in the style of this forum, why post here at all? I’ll give you a shot to make an argument with cites; if not, I’ll close this thread. And yes, the navy blue text is annoying because it makes it harder for people to quote your posts without a bunch of broken code.
Don’t threaten me to try and intimidate me. If the site wants me out, that is their business, and I’ll be happy to go. I love this site, but I only want to be where I am wanted.
If those kinds of threats you are making are not against the rules they should be.
But that is all your contribution to this thread consists of; your unsubstantiated opinions. Seems odd you would point out the spec in someone else’s eye…
I can easily not post in blue if that is a problem. As for cites, I don’t see anyone else citing much of anything, but it you want me in particular to produce cites for everything I say, I guess you just don’t want me on here. Sorry, I won’t post anymore, as I just can’t do that. But, thanks for the time I was here.
Okay, that’s the first outright laugh in this whole sad comedy routine. I suggest more practice.
So anyone who doesn’t share your version, of the creation of the universe, is ‘totally evil’? Doesn’t your book say you’re not supposed to judge others?
I’m so glad you don’t condemn, at least.:rolleyes:
