    This thread is so gay

    That may be the dumbest post I've seen you make. But I don't care anymore. For five years on RF, I've put up with Christian hatred of gay people and Muslim hatred of gay people, and every conceivable slur and lie about gay people, and being addressed on this forum in a manner that would not...

    This thread is so gay

    That's very true. And not all opinions are of equal value. But as an interesting experiment, why don't you tell a Puerto Rican that his mother is a whore, and then open a discussion on the subjectivity of offense?

    What were the scriptures Paul was referring to?

    Whether he was right or not, presenting his own claims as "proof" of his claims requires tremendous gullibility and intellectual dishonesty.

    This thread is so gay

    Precisely. And the context we're talking about stinks. It's offensive. I certainly support every person's right to use whatever language he likes, but I won't pretend that it doesn't inform my opinion of the person who uses it.

    This thread is so gay

    I'm really not sure what you mean. That people shouldn't notice offensive language? Or that it's okay to use offensive language, but not to comment on it?

    "Patriotic millionaires" call for their tax cuts to expire

    I'm not sure about that. I think it would have worked better, and been more popular, if it had been tied to stringent conditions about how the money was to be used, and if the government had required the elimination of bonuses for the sons of ******* who drove the economy into the ground in the...

    Palestianian atheist arrested

    Interesting. I wasn't aware that several of them were women he had enslaved after killing their husbands.

    This thread is so gay

    I'm aware that many people who use the word that way aren't conscious of any bigotry on their own part, and are merely thoughtless or stupid. However, when people continue to defend that use of the word after they've learned that it's offensive, I think it's safe to assume some level of bigotry...

    Palestianian atheist arrested

    Besides marrying a six-year-old, Muhammad also married Zaynab, the divorced wife of his own adopted son. Then there was Rayhana; he killed her husband, enslaved her, and took her to his bed. Clearly, this is the behavior of the most virtuous of men, and it's no wonder that Muslims so revere him...

    Saudi school lessons in UK concern government

    Well, fair's fair. If it's okay to teach that gay people should be killed, it's equally acceptable to teach that Muslims should be killed. I don't care what you decide as long as the same standard applies across the board.

    This thread is so gay

    It's exactly as offensive as "******-rigged," "Indian giver," and "Jewed him down." If people used the word "Irish" or the word "Hindu" the way you use the word "gay," would you even have to ask the question?

    Saudi school lessons in UK concern government

    That's an admirably concise summation of Islamic law.

    Uh-huh. And when you say ******ish it doesn't mean anything racist, does it?

    Demoted for Risking a Boy's Life

    No kidding. The judges either have **** for brains, or they assume the people do. They should have done prison time at least.

    TSA pat-down poll

    I'm much more worried about the government -- and drunken pilots -- than I am about terrorists.

    TSA pat-down poll

    Apparently, they've moved beyond pat downs to rubbing all over your body.

    I agree. I've re-connected with friends and relatives I hadn't seen or talked to in 25 years. Make up your mind. Do you like it or not?
