I didn't realize I was so important, Christian. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: The only time, the only place, I confronted you was inside of SB1. You, on the other hand, have seized on a number of opportunities to attack me here, and in the lounge, often in posts you know, or hope, I won't read. To whine about what I said to you seems a wee bit hypocritical, under the circumstances.

What difference does it make to you, Christian, since you believe the baby is damned to hell unless he joins your little cult?

The key word is "belief" If any researcher in any field has a belief and then selects data, or creates it wholesale, in order to "prove" his belief then he is no scientist, he is a hack. I am quite sure that there are researchers who believe that sexuality is determined genetically, and those who believe that it is determined totally by environment. The ones I think should be doing the research are the ones who don't have beliefs, simply an open mind. I, for one, have no idea, what makes someone homosexual. Equally, I have no idea whether we are actually in a period of global warming or not. I, really don't care whether someone is a homosexual, though I despise whiny little queens and butches who run around making their sexual preference the be-all and end-all of their existence. And it seems to me that if we are dealing with global warming, we need to do what we can to adapt to it rather than use it as an excuse to transfer wealth from the West to the East.

I agree, it sucks.

You don't have to be wrong to be a c***.

As you have proved over and over again. However, I have twice been dragged back into this thread after having reenabled get emails. For some reason, I don't seem to be able to ignore insults once I've read 'em. It's a failing, I know. My point is that I was leaving the boy alone and would have continued to do so, if you hadn't stuck your nose in. I am again disabling emails and so you can have the last word knowing that I'll never see it. I have also advised Chris that I think the entire thread should be dumped into the back room. The thread veers back and forth between personal insults (including yours) and discussions of American politics. which sometimes seems to be an Australian national pastime rivaling soccer.

1. He's queer. 2. Michelle Bachman's husband makes his living deprogramming gays. 3. Ravel hates her guts. 4. He's 17. 5. He's never lived in the U.S. 6. He knows little about American Politics. 7. He knows less about Bachmann. If one of those statements is incorrect, I'll beg his pardon. Until then, :zzz:

Since Chris has made it clear that he does not want posts about American politics in SB2. I responded at length to your post in SB1. You are welcome to argue it there. It's probably too late for me to remember the house rules, but whatthehell, I try. BTW: I won't be reading any responses to this post, so if you are actually interested in a discussion rather than the yammer that some folks seem incapable of rising above, you'll have to follow me over there.

It's clear that you really hate gay people.

Don't be silly. My best friend, and business partner for 7 years was queer. In my youth (when I was only 10 years older than you) I worked as a lighting designer for musical theatre and ballet companies where the vast majority of my co-workers were queer and some were queens. I had a long-term relationship with a woman who was bisexual. If I had a problem with homosexuality, I would have never applied for the job or lasted in it. For all you know, I walk down both sides of the street. It's whiny little boys who make up stories that I disdain. By the way, the reason I deleted my other post was because I can and should do better. I'll let you have the last whine. Bye.

I liked you better when you defended global warming. Now you are out to prove Chris right.
