So, basically what you are saying is that the Church should not be able to have any rules or standards of behavior but you are allowed to? Because that is kind of what it sounds like. The President is a fink. |

Not at all, far from it. Just admit what those rules and standards really are and I'm fine with it. Discriminatory and intolerant, which is the dictionary def of bigotry. Saying there can be no women priests because god doesn't approve is the orig bullshite scapegoat reason. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Nobody is forcing anybody to show up. Why would you care about a rule of a place you do not belong to? Should the local Elks and Moose Lodges get your permission before they write their constitutions? The President is a fink. |

So this is you admitting that the Church has bigoted rules? Now if you can just convince FrG that his god is the orig discriminator, we're getting somewhere. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Ah, no, no such admission. I am asking why on earth you care so much. You have never come close to answering this. You are taking like those people who make fun of USMC because they have a code they believe in. Or any other group that has a code. If you do not like it, why just not join and not worry about it? The President is a fink. |

Of course I have. I'm anti religion, it causes more harm and more division in the world by far, than any other reason. This is why the secular movement is on the rise worldwide. People are realizing enough is enough. I don't think I've ever met a Gay person I didn't like, they deserve better treatment than they get in most churches. Being Gay is not a choice, we know that for a fact now. It's not like being left handed, which can be changed. Gay's don't have a choice. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

So, if religion is so bad, are they not doing gays a favor by not including them? (as you say anyways?) The President is a fink. |

NGBT's still feel the discrimination if they're not religious. Look at what atheist Nareed says about it. And if religion did include them, that would get rid of most of the problem, wouldn't it. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I don't know Bob's motivation for continuing to defend his position on religion or Catholicism in particular but I am very glad he has stuck with it. I have learned a lot from these threads on the subject. A famous USMC Ira Hayes The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |
