What state will be LAST to legalize gay marriage?

iam not for it, and I stated my reasons why. Originally Posted by acp5762

What makes you think you can make that argument, while ignoring the same argument in regards to sex with a prostitute? Or sex outside of marriage, for that matter?

Apparently you're in favor of God's laws, so long as they don't prevent you from doing what you want to do. But the hell with what everyone else wants.

Hypocrite much?

Why does the left keep bringing up religion? Originally Posted by JD Barleycorn

So prosititutes seem to be in pretty good company in the Bible.

Good for them. Too bad my point wasn't about prostitutes. It was about sex. Outside of marriage. Using birth control. And paying for it.

Actually, according to my belief system, it pretty much does.

Nevertheless, i base my actions on my own morality - which is based on one part current societal trends, one part my own logic, and one part what i can manage to justify in my own mind for what i want to do.

What it's not based on, it's not based on some ancient hand-written text which is filled with stories that are so ridiculous that they belong in some children's book somewhere.

I'll take my chances.

Oh brother. Ok, let me spell it out for you.



And prostitution is a mockery of what God intended for sex to be.

The only thing worse than you telling us we should live under the laws of your God, is you telling us that you get to decide which of God's laws we're obligated to live under.

ACP, that's the problem with spewing party line bullshit without thinking about what you are actually saying. It is easy to get your facts all tangled and finally you lose the argument, miserably!

Accept the fact that you swallowed the bait, hook, line and sinker. Why don't you cut your losses and move on before you dig your hole any deeper?

Told ya.

I understand the difference! The difference being that you were afraid that someone would criticize you for not toeing the party line. In doing so you got out maneuvered.

Accept your defeat like a man and move on!

It's also pretty easy to live as a Christian - when you're able to convince yourself that the only rules to be followed are the ones that don't affect you.

My atheism notwithstanding, i'll still put my morality up against yours if there ultimately is a higher power judging us. I imagine hypocrisy doesn't sit too well up there.

As long as he does not try to tell me when and how to express my religious beliefs, I am not going to try to tell him that he should or should not be a believer. That is entirely his choice, not mine! Just as my personal choice of religious belief is mine, not his! Do you get my drift?

Did I remember to tell you to accept your defeat like the spineless weasel that you have repeatedly shown yourself to be and move on?

If not, I just did!
