@mtngirlsouth - First McDonalds, next Disney.

@TheTheologiansCafe - haha, nice

@IntoTheWind1 - The term “liberal thought” is an oxymoron when referring to the vast multitudes of follwers on the left.

@LadyboyRevolution - If you want to speak out against war then tell it to the Muslims with their ongoing war against infidels.  Also, try being openly gay in any Islamic country and see what happens.  Life expectency will suddenly drop to zero. 

Of course liberals will boycott, we already knew this, but I do not entirely trust your source which is a left wing propaganda page, and I can tell from empirical observation that Chic-Fil-A is as crowded as ever.  No other fast food place is half as busy during lunch. 

@RazielV - ”Hate speech” is a bullcrap concept.  But yes, you are free to say anything you want, and so are people on my side.  At least, right now we are.  Maybe with NDAA that will eventually go away.

@RazielV - Marriage originally existed as an institution designed by God, the first institution in fact, and the only institution created by either God or man that predates the fall of man.  Even after most of humanity forgot God, the institution of marriage prevailed in ALL cultures, which ought to carry some weight.  Although, some cultures allowed for polygamy.  Even in cultures where homosexuality was considered a legitimate behavior, and even when it was institutionally encouraged (Athens, Sparta), it was never viewed as marriage or as being on par with marriage.  The whole idea that marriage can be redefined or that can exist as something other than a union of male and female is a modern phenomona, and a product of cultural Marxism.  Chic-Fil-A is putting up some resistance to the impetus of cultural Marxism, and God will bless them for it. 

Marriage is highly traditional.  Not only is it the primary avenue of reproduction for most cultures all throughout history, but it is also the traditional means by which cultures perpetuate themselves.  The family unit is the backbone of all societies, and data has shown that when that is undermined cultures cannot survive.  Look at the problem of white decline.  White people are going extinct, or at least western white people are, because of the decline of the family. 

I said nothing of Republicans and Democrats, I said “Conservatives and Liberals.”  There is a difference, because you can have liberal Republicans, and there are even a few cases of conservative Democrats (although that is rare).  I disagree with the notion that unlimited diversity is good and that we can and should have people who are disparately different all crammed together under one roof.  A house divided against itself cannot stand.  What we need is to move away from globalism back toward nationalism.

@LadyboyRevolution - Now you’re just being silly.  A liberal claiming that their ideology is based on the Constitution would be like Michael Savage claiming that his ideology is based on the Communist Manifesto.  Either claim is equally ridiculous and should be dismissed as such.

I find that most liberals are globalists, meaning that they support having a one world government, which is usually a universal socialist state which everyone will be forced to be part of.  Nationalism involves having political boundaries based on nations, and a nation is a people group.  You liberals and we conservatives are different nations.  If the country were to split along those lines both sides would be a good deal happier.  Or at least, our side would be.  But either way there would be no basis for conflict between us. 

@LadyboyRevolution - Alright, first of all, I am not a Native American, neither does our culture spring from that.  Second, the best you could do is find one example of a Native American Lesbian who kept multiple partners in her tent?  OK, I’ll concede that you found one example of “gay marriage” in a primitive culture, although that does not allow you to generalize about all Native Americans for all time as you have attempted to do.  For the most part Native Americans were very family oriented, like all traditional socieites.  In the case of Woman Chief you have a female imitating what the male chiefs are doing, that’s it.  That does not mean they conceptualized marriage in general as being something other than actual traditional marriage.  Also, the documentary was confusing because the narrator often referred to gay men as “she.” 

Even so, you would be hard pressed to find any non-white country today that tolerates homosexuality. 

So you hate Christians.  What about white people?  What is it about Native American culture that you find enviable beside the concept of “two spirits”?  Perhaps if you admire them so much you should take up a neolithic lifestyle.  You can run out into the woods, hunt all of your own food using stone arrows and spears, and you can skin them and wear the skins.  Sounds like fun yes? 

@Big_Esh - Haha, that’s right.  Although I have to say that I don’t care for Islam any more than I care for the cultural marxists.  They are separate evils, but they are both still evil.  I would actually boycot gas if I could, but I have to get to work so…  What to do?

@LadyboyRevolution - Eastern countries have been heavily populated going back for thousands of years. They were densely populated well before Christianity even existed, and certainly before any European explorers ever arrived there.  Even if they are predominantly Catholic now, they still do not hold a candle to India or China in terms of population density.  There are a variety of factors that account for overpopulation in eastern countries.  Some are due to the fact that they are highly tradional and family oriented societies, so traditionally having lots of children reflected positively on the parents.  Also, with the advent of modern technology and improved medical techniques the infant mortality rate has been reduced, and it is taking some time for the rate of pregnancies to adjust to the lowered infant mortality rate.  Attributing their overpopulation and squalor to Christianity is like attributing blaming Christianity for their hair being a certain color.

Evenso, having a high population density does not need to result in poor living conditions.  The South Koreans and the Japanese have done an excellent job creating a clean standard of living in spite of having a dense population.  I could go into details on what and how, and contrast them with some of the more destitute countries but chances are you don’t care.

In any event, we were not talking about Eastern cultures, we were talking about western cultures.  Bringing up the Phillipines when talking about the problems here is about as pertinent as bringing up Mars when talking about the Tsunami that hit Japan.  Overpopulation is one problem, but ceasing to exist as a people is a much more serious problem.  If you think I’m being overly dramatic just look at the birth statistics of white people around the world.  The birth rates are insufficient to compensate for the death rates.  Overpopulation can be remedied over time but there is nothing that can be done to reverse an extinction.

@Big_Esh - I’m hoping for biodiesel.

@RazielV - First of all, God did not appear with the advent of Christianity.  The Bible very clearly states that marriage was the first institution and designed by God, which could explain why the institution of marriage antedates the institution of government.  There were some things in the OT that were punishable by death under the old covenant, but we live under the new covenant now.  That being said, if the old covenant were still around then I would be advocating stoning for homosexuality and zoophilia.  I would also be advocating polygamy.  I have no problem with following the laws of God, whatever they are.  That is where my morality comes from.  If I didn’t believe in God then I would treat life like a videogame, and take it about as seriously.  

Your beliefs about the origins of marriage are just that, beliefs.  One thing to ponder, is that marriage is one of the things that separates humanity from animals.  Animals as you know have no concept of marriage or serial monogamy.

Rights do come from God or they don’t exist.  No God means no laws or accountability beyond the human level, which means no rights.  Either rights exist independently of humanity, or not at all, and regardless of whether or not there is a God, you cannot manufacture a right any more than you can manufacture a new law of physics.

Of course I realize you are an atheist, so I am well aware of the fact that moral laws do not exist as far as you are concerned.  All I have done so far is give you my position and the reasons why.  As I stated before, if you are an atheist the only reason you might have a problem with homosexuality is if you want humanity to survive.  But if you will, I will step into the role of an atheist for a moment:
You have no rights, nobody does.  Whatever the majority wants to do they can because they have the power, and the same would be true on an individual basis.  But that’s OK, because nothing matters.  In the long run you’re just nothing, because once you die that’s it, and eventually the universe will be dead and all sentient life snuffed out, so in the long run whatever small difference you think you might have made, or whatever petty cause you latched onto it was all for nothing.  It’s all going to be the same no matter what you do, so you may as well go out and get sloshed and not think about anything because it’s all pointless and meaningless.  You may as well not complain about anything because nothing matters, and it looks like you’re just trying to make up your own religion when you pretend to have a cause and go crusading for it.

OK I made a logical atheist argument dealing with nothing but facts we can agree on.  Let me see you produce an argument using facts and logic (no opinions) for why I should take your homosexuality any more seriously than say zoophilia?

@dw817 - Well they aren’t just concerned about what is best for business, otherwise they would also be open on Sundays.

@LadyboyRevolution - I think a huge part of it is their work ethic, which is a common thread throughout most eastern civilizations.  Of course, Indians also have a really great work ethic but India is not nearly as nice or clean.  From what I gather the Koreans also have a good sense of cleanliness (check the story about the woman whose dog crapped in a train), and they are more orderly and pragmatic by nature.  When I was in India there were two things that I noticed they could do which would improve their living conditions by leaps and bounds.  One is, they could get a garbage collection service, and another is they could build up.  By build up I mean build buildings that are tall.  For some reason they seem to have an aversion to building buildings that are over 20 or 30 floors, so they spread out across the ground in crowded neighborhoods.  

@LadyboyRevolution - So it affects you how exactly?  You want to have a legally recognized gay marriage and you can’t?

@LadyboyRevolution - OK so what’s the problem?  They won’t let her come because she’s Filipino?
