PEOPLE CHILL WHY THE SUDDEN SWEARING OUTBURSTS!
Why can't we have a swearing free board? Is it so much to ask. However I must say sandy has a very valid point.
Why is the swearing bothering you?
Also if you think Sandy has a valid point then you understand her/him (it's a unisex name right?) and understand that they're pissed off from getting swindled by Alex, so I think their swearing is valid and there's no problem with it.
ATA0, you have absolutely no moral ground to stand on. You've called people faggots more than once.
Ok.
My first point. I never said I condone homosexuality, although if you must know I do. No one gets hurt (except maybe the bottom :lol: :lol: :lol: ) so they can do what they want it doesn't matter to me. It's their choice.
You are justifying you calling people faggots with the bible on the one hand, then on the other you use the bible again and say "No profanity blah blah".
Faggot is profanity, mate. If you have something against homosexuals then phrase it in a nice manner like the good Christian you are.
Second point. "The gall of people to think that they can decide what is moral and what is not, the bible is the moral authority, not what some secular thinker makes up in his head what is right and wrong. God is our creator".
God created us with free will. God has instilled within us the ability to accept or reject anything in this world. Why do you say the Bible is the be-all-end-all on moral authority? What if when we die we are presented before God and he says "You actually bought that crap? Didn't every ounce of your being wish to denounce it? And you STILL followed blindly? You are a disgrace to my name! Straight to Hell with you!"
Wouldn't your face be red :oops:
Is calling someone straight a faggot offensive, you think?
I am straight.I'll assume you are for the sake of argument. I'd like to know your thought processes when you called me a faggot without abandon.
It comes off to me as you being offensive for the sake of being offensive. Or is it just a casual notion of friendship for you?
"I don't think that's a good idea buddy"
"Want to go out for a few drinks tonight mate?"
"Hey how's it going faggot, haven't seen you in ages!"
:roll:
And my second note is not worthy of being discussed to you because you're not able to form your own thoughts and I'm not able to succumb blindly to some archaic whip-cracking.
I don't recall calling you a faggot
It's not really offensive faggot
If you were saying the word isn't really offensive, even though it is, you should state that you're talking about the word because what you said clearly was directing faggot at me.
And I see "faggot" just like "nigger". Some people embrace the word to diffuse the offensive power it has against them, as a "Fuck you" to people using it against them.
But go to a black neighbourhood and call someone a nigger. People will take offense. Go to a gay neighbourhood and call someone a faggot. People will take offense.
You know the word bears offense but you try to play it off casually. You are not a good person and you know it.
Edit: And before you say only gay people will take offense to the word "faggot" and, mayhap, call me a faggot, you yourself have said you take offense to the word. And you're straight *coughcough*.
I don't recall calling you a faggot, but being sympathetic to homosexuals you may be more prone to accepting homosexuality for yourself as a lifestyle.
Good god, you must be even stupider than I initially thought-- and that's really saying something.
Only a fool would derive his morality from something as absurd as the bible. It is nothing more than an epic fairy tale.
