Is God a pacifist? Uh, no. Especially since He kills people and has killed people many times.
But who would want a pacifist for a God in the world we live in?
Of course.
Politics + Media = Lying Industry
It's quite obvious in Australia especially, since one person owns most of our media and one company owns most of our elected politicians.
Honestly, I've had enough.
If you can't see how wrong it is, than nothing I say is going to change that. Just remember that dismissing the feelings of other people is the same thing as other people dismissing your feelings. You being a minority or persecuted doesn't make you any more special and...
Faith. Then perhaps art. Then philosophy, humanitarianism, environmentalism and then family. Honestly there are plenty of things more important than how people and/or the world perceives you.
I just take it as fact in the sense that it was how it seemed to the person writing the account. To someone pretty darned ignorant, their land being completely flooded they'd probably have assumed the world had flooded (And rightly so, since their world did flood, their world was just very small...
All I've expected and said to you is that you should be honest with your potential sex partner. In what way does that violate your rights or single you out or anything? You have the obligation to tell your partner about your body that you're going to share with them, if for nothing else than...
Well, there you go.
You're such a victim that you're willing to victimize others because you prioritize your ideology above others, and are happy to shove it down people's throats.
It's almost poetic.
It's not your problem, it's their problem.
So you admit that you don't give a crap, right? I mean you just said it, it's their problem not yours. So you don't respect their feelings or sexuality then? That's fine, I just want you to admit it. Admit that you're a gosh damn hypocrite, who wants...
Because in reality, there is rarely if ever an actual distinction.
And you can't really say 'killing people for apostasy is evil' without also inferring that the people who practice/believe it are evil.
There's really no need to sugar coat it, imo.
It is a deception, because you know that some people don't consider transsexual sex as heterosexual sex, but you'd force your ideals on them anyway because you don't respect their sexuality. But hypocritically, you expect us all to cater to you.
No. Just stop with the persecution complex.
If...
STD's are expected to be revealed, because it can harm their partner.
If they're rough in bed, because they can harm their partner.
If they have any kinks that would be unexpected in the bed, because they can shock/harm their partner.
If they have any disabilities or deformities, because they...
I understand that.
But that's not the issue, the issue is revealing it to someone you want or expect to have sex with. That's the right thing to do, and anything else is tricking them, because you know there are some people out there that wouldn't be okay with it, and not checking to see if...
Not wanting to have sex with a transexual doesn't make someone transphobic.
And I would never actually say anything about my thoughts on transexuality, because it's unnecessary. I don't like it, that's that. I still like transexuals as people though and I respect their choices and think they...
Now you're just projecting. I don't find them icky, sinful or morally depraved. I just don't like transexuality itself. Transexuals are still people, and I think of them as such. And that's why I hold them to the ideal that they shouldn't lie about their sexuality anymore than I should lie about...
I'm not afraid of being hit on by a trans person, since a FtM transexual can't really hide their transexuality in bed, but some MtF's can and according to Shadow, feel justified in doing so.
If we're supposed to respect your transexuality, then you're supposed to respect our heterosexuality...
No, I don't speak for God. Some people do, but you'll know them.
I'm just speaking from what I believe to be true, that all the nuances are just gravy and faith is what matters.
No, their sins aren't on you. But what you do affects people, whether you like it or not, and tricking someone into having sex with you is wrong. And it is tricking them, because religion and morals aside, some people are just simply heterosexual. And having sex with a transexual, to them, is...
Bloody hell.
You do realize that some people find it morally reprehensible, or an offence to God? Do you not care that your lie could inflict great psychological torment on them if they found out? That's just messed up, and cruel, and unnecessary. It's a lie, and even little kids know lying is...
