You don't know? Then your marriage is already doomed because you're
so damaged by gay marriage that you cannot even see the danger it poses.

It's easy.
If gay marriage is allowed. Then you are going to have to get gay married as well.
No, silly. He'll have to marry a dog...or a horse.

I don't know about you, but in my dozens of associations with gays, both men and women, I've yet to find one who isn't comfortable in his/her own skin, well adjusted, easy to get along with, willing to discuss their differences.

That's what they'd have you believe in order to lull you into a complacent state.
Before you know it, you'll be wanting to marry your dog. Think of the children!

Gays are like all other people, no particular reason to believe they are dangerous.

What about their trying to convert our youth into gays?
What about the unfair earning advantage of DINKs (dual income, no kids)?
What about their high standards of being fabulous....which we normal folk cannot attain?
And some of them vote Republican (you know...the "Log Cabin" guys).

He doesn't. Rev is a Libertarian and pretty much doesn't care that people are gay. Additionally I don't believe Libertarians think governments should be involved in the marriage business...be they heterosexual or homosexual. I'm sure he's being sarcastic...

What was your first clue that his Revoltingness was being sarcastic?
Oh, you party poopers...ruining a perfectly good mirthful run.

Oh have a furball, you old softy.
(You'll have to take an IOU though. I'm pretty stingy and haven't spread the wealth enough lately.)
Actually, I think marriage serves a useful legal function.
I just wouldn't limit it to heterosexual relationships.
It shouldn't be for government to decide which people (of consenting age) can get hitched.

Yep...that's pretty much my position on these matters as well.

It shouldn't be the government that decides a lot of things, yet that is exactly what the Dems. and Repubs. both want. Government control. If I want to get freaky with a dude while lighting up a blunt and polishing my AK-47, then by God, let me do it.

We dems don't want to control government. A one party controoled government by dems or pubs is horrible. I don't have any problem with a third or fourth party but ultimately I see more of the same out of all parties over time but I personally think it's politicians along with corporations that want to control government.
We dems don't care if you smoke (See: Colorado) and other states with democrat governors and/or legislatures. When we were trying to pass it in CO. Republicans were blocking it.
Dems don't care who you sleep with be they male, female, either or both at the same time. Many of the efforts for marriage equality and the Employment Non-Discrimination Act are lead by dems. It's getting tougher for us to get republicans on board with that
Now I will agree with you on Combat Weapons. There's been a more knee jerk reaction to them by more dems than republicans. But many of us stand with the rest of law abiding gun owners. We don't want to see Combat rifles taken off the streets. Personally I've never needed or wanted one (combat Rifle) but I am a gun owner and don't want to deprive others of the ability to purchase/own them.

He has a good point....
In fact, there's always been a whole lot of it.
So...what's the alternative to skepticism....faith?

Did you watch the video? It was all opinion with no scientific qualifiers.

Yep but it has accelerated during and after the industrial age.

I don't understand the question. I don't know what faith is. I simply accept the scientific evidence for global climate change.
I don't doubt that climate change is happening, & that there will be difficult consequences.Did you watch the video? It was all opinion with no scientific qualifiers.

The problem here is that what you quoted from Murdoch is on the surface quite reasonable.
If he made some loopy unscientific claim, that's what you should'a posted.

My post was accurate. The quotes were right from the video in which he spouted off a bunch of stuff including numbers/estimates that aren't backed by the science. It just happens to be ("stuff Republicans say")...
