    I thought it may be something like that. My personal view is that he is a closet homosexual who has yet to come to terms with his sexuality and rails at the thought. Either that or he is a twat.

      There cannot possibly be a God - it would never allow one such as Troy to live while others who are a positive influence in the world suffer and die arbitrarily and irrelevantly.

          I assumed from you Constant harping on about this subject it was close to your heart. You are obsessed with commenting on other's lifestyles, and my views are as real and pertinent as yours. More so in fact as I don't preach division and disharmony, unlike the fascist views you expound.

            Why does the thought of same sex relationships bother you? Hatred is bred from fear, and fear from self realisation of weakness. Should not we all become tolerant and accepting of people, working in peace and harmony regardless of their orientation/sexuality/sex/gender/colour/beliefs/politics etc. Or should we continue to be divisive and obedient to book thumping, intolerant, biased, politico/religious bigots?

            Because it is being promoted as moral imperative which we must all be tolerant of. Why does it bother you that some people are bothered by same sex relationships? Is there some kind of new age orthodoxy that we are now all required to acknowledge?

            We have always done that. That is, until someone came along with a new moral imperative that they claimed the moral authority to force upon everyone else.

            Thats up to you, Dave. You are the bullying moral bigot in this scenario insisting that your views are better than everyone else's. Marriage has always been pretty much a male-female kind of a deal. Why does that bother you so much?

            Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

                  1. Tolerance is important, without it we become a judgemental, corrupt society, layered by how much of mainstream dogma we approve. 2) It is mine alone, and not logically indefensible. Where do you think hatred comes from? 3)

                    Site needs plug-ins - nope, I'm not installing additional plug-ins just to see *his* website. But from what I can see, its awful. OT CP is so damned slow at the moment. I tried to edit my post before your response but CP just kept me waiting and waiting and I finally gave up. Don't know what Maunder and his team are doing but this site is getting almost unusable. Might be a bloody lot quicker to use pigeon post. :mad: Not only that but my post has vanished. I'm sure I didn't hit the delete key...

                        Sorry, Dave, but all you are doing is creating a new moral imperative called 'tolerance' which encompasses exclusively a pre-determined set of behaviors which you think we should be tolerant of. It is no different than any form of judgementatlism baseed upon any other kind of moral imperative. You have achieved nothing. It is simply a new bunch of people telling another bunch of people that they suck. You simply through throw about emotionally charged accusations such as 'hatred' and 'weakness' to make your own moral imperative sound somehow superior to others. Oh, and btw, I think it is laughable for you to claim that the statement is 'yours alone'. Is it a bizarre conincidence that that same statmeent is repeated by every liberal on the planet? Come on, fess up, where did you get it from?

                        As long as you have civilization, you are going to have one group of people telling some other group of people how they are going to behave, otherwise your civilization will degrade into anarchy. We have always been tolerant of those things we are told we are supposed to be tolerant of.

                        As a matter of fact, you can't. No more so than any other moral absolutist.

                            It went totally off-line last night (my time) although I guess it came back up in time for Ileitis to spew forth some more trash. I was thinking that maybe Mumbai University handed out take-home midterms yesterday; that would explain the slowness, n'est-ce pas?

                                I saw a documentary once on a guy that designed gas chambers and electric chairs for the government to execute people with where he went to Germany to prove that the gas chambers never existed. He did this at the request of some skin head organization to prove the Holocaust never happened. Needless to say he wasn't very popular back in the states afterward. I think he moved to Canada. I've met people like that before. I guess you can act logical, but not make it part of your being.

                                  I'm tempted to say to some people, here is my GTalk address, chat there. Its bound to be quicker in almost every respect and I've never experienced problems using GTalk unlike MSN Live Messenger.

                                    We have always done that. That is, until someone came along with a new moral imperative that they claimed the moral authority to force upon everyone else.

                                    Thats up to you, Dave. You are the bullying moral bigot in this scenario insisting that your views are better than everyone else's. Marriage has always been pretty much a male-female kind of a deal. Why does that bother you so much?

                                    Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

                                      Because it is the foundation of all civilizations!!! Without Christianity we would all be leftist, Marxist, fascist, anti-Jeffersonian, homosexual, Muslim, non-racist libertarians!

                                        Okay so if I understand this right your saying that racists or homophobes can't be conservatives because "Conservatism, by definition, is a political philosophy free of extremism of any kind." and that racists and homophobes are extremists. Then... Explain to me how Republicans such as Georgia Sen. Saxby Chambliss are conservative when they say things like "The other folks are voting," http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/10/31/chambliss-the-other-folks_n_139725.html[^]. Aren't statements like this racists and by your definition extreme and not conservative?

                                          Have I ever said you did? I think it would be wise if you were, but as a conservative, I believe the only thing you are required to be tolerant of is the will of the people in freely deciding upon the formulation of the rules and standards that define their civilization.
