Posts: 8588 | January 28th, 2007 at 11:07pm Bloodraine:spill_no_sick:a. I would never call you conservative
you're a parrot
you aren't supposed to manipulate facts to make your opinion seem valid, you should have a valid opinion because you based it on facts
I could say the world is flat and find stuff that works for that, but the evidence shows me that it isn't flat
Do all opinions need to be based on facts?
You're a Christian; you believe on God. Not out of facts, I'd imagine, since there is no such fact to say God exists or doesn't exist. But I think you believe anyway because your conscience/heart/brain tells you God exists. And I don't think that just because that opinion isn't based on facts, doesn't make it less valid.
I think the best opinions come from the heart; the ones that don't subject to mathematical reasoning, but the opinions that just seem right. And wouldn't seeing facts and basing your opinion on them be just as bad as 'parroting' anyway?
I mean, I'd rather a person believed something and then tried to find ('manipulate') facts to back it up than a person found a fact, agreed with it, and then based their opinion on it. In fact, the latter seems far more like being a parrot to me. I didn't sat all opinions
but political opinions, yes |

They need to be based on what you feel and think.
If it's what you think, it's an opinion. If it's not what you think, then what the fuck are you babbling about? |

you need to decide how to perceive the issue based on fact
what about the KKK
they grew up hearing that blacks are evil and they have very strong feelings towards it
all out of feeling
had they actually consulted everything that "proved" blacks to be evil, we'd have no more KKK
now we have liberals trying to change the rules that religion should control, because they don't exam all of the evidence first
instead, they form their opinion based on how they feel, and then find whatever sources help them out with that
in case you didn't know, that's how propaganda functions |

Religion should not control the government.
We have a separation of church and state.
You need to take your little Bible to your church and leave it there instead of bringing it into Congress.
It has no right there.
That is fact, derived from the Constitution.

A famous gay guy ( have forgoten his name) was on a TV program and he was asked would you ever adopt a child and he replied "no because i have chosen to live my life in a same sex relationship and i feel that, that isnt the best for a child"
Is he right or is he wrong?? 
Well, I think kids should know that it's okay to be gay. |

Wrong.
What's right for a child is having parents who love him/her.
Sexual orientation has shit to do with it. |

he's not wrong, it's not even a right or wrong answer. it's a preference, and if he chooses not to adopt, his reason should be accepted because it's his choice. i'm all for same sex marriages and the adopting as well. as long as the parents provide both a fatherly figure and a motherly figure, the child would be raised just the same as everyone else. |

He's wrong because he didn't specify that his words were meant only for himself.
And what do you mean by motherly and fatherly figure? A butch dyke and a femme dyke? A masculine queer and a femme queer? |

Marriages;
Netherlands (goes without saying)
Belgium
Spain
Canada
South Africa
Unions;
Andorra, Australia, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Israel, Luxembourg, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Slovenia, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom (aka England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland) and some states of America.
Of course, these unions offer varying status. For example, in Sweden, they have full adopting rights.

***All of this information was taken from Wikipedia. Lol. In Croatia one partner cant get social and health insurance of their partner, cant visit them in the intensive care in hospitals and cant inherit the house or apartments they lived together in. They cant share the property they earned together without proving they actually lived together.
[Information from a Croatian gay pride site]
But ( I read that on that site too) is that homosexuals have more of a problem with being accepted from other people then from the law. You can get your rights in the law, but you cant change how other people think and there will always be discrimination. Homosexual discrimination in Croatia is big, but the discrimination laws are weak. |

| April 7th, 2007 at 02:22pm Okay, I felt the need to bring back this discussion.
I read in the news today that (Oh joy of joys) Disney has given the go-ahead to having same-sex weddings in their park.
...YAY...
Personally, I don't think any self-respecting person should have the desire to marry there
Your thoughts? Huzzah or wtf? |

US civil unions are a freaking joke. You recieve whatever benifits your state decides to give you, and you can't recieve any of the national benifits because the federal government refuses to take a stand. |

| April 7th, 2007 at 06:13pm I think same sex marriages are fine. I support it completely.
(I also think same sex adoption is fine, as long as the baby is going to live with a loving caring family, and has a good future, why stop it?) |
