To be honest u are just giving the most back and forth arguments its irratating reading itYou guys are too much.
Discussing is not the same as childish name calling back and forth and assuming a stance taken for the purpose of discord......as Morgen posed it, SCHISM.

That's funny right there... I don't care who you are!I tried to but apparently I'd repped her recently for some other memorable post. Ah well.
She has a life you know.
Ignorance and homophobia are so closely related and so equally dangerous to us all and our future that you'll have to excuse me if it's hard to tell the difference from this side.I'd like to clarify-it is not "my" little experience with a teen. It was my friend.
I'll be fair and tell you that you are understandably not following that my response was ENTIRELY relevant. You can't see that because you did not follow this other said thread, ok?
.....no flimsy opinion.........
My friend was not a lesbian, nor was she bi. Does that truly seem impossible to you?
In any event, it is just the way it is. She had less self-esteem than just about any I have encountered.
No need to be defensive.
LOL, HAHAHAHA.....if I had just known there were so many gay/bi sexual people posting on this thread, I would HAVE been SO much more careful with my response.
But as chance had it, I was falling asleep and my response TO Morgen (AGAIN, in response to ANOTHER THREAD/ANOTHER TOPIC) would be utilized to show my "supposed" lack of understanding.
Please save the "it has nothing to do with Daddy molested me, etc."
It is SO not necessary. My father didn't molest my brother either.
Save those comments for a homophobic. This really is SILLY.
Couldn't agree more.Ignorance and homophobia are so closely related and so equally dangerous to us all and our future that you'll have to excuse me if it's hard to tell the difference from this side.
It was your words that caused the problem regardless of if you had malice behind it the end result is identical.
It's not about mine or anyone elses sensitivity on the subject, only your own insensitivity and thougtlessness. I just had to call you on it because you earned it. Also I do believe you can probably see the error in your thinking here and maybe that will translate to opening your mind that you are also just as wrong and stubborn in your opinions on everything else you and the rest of us don't agree on.
You look at everything from too narrow a view and don't seem to think outside yourself or at a minimum because of many things you say you come across quite thoughtless.
Taboo For Who?I like the word cunt.
I believe you all should give your harvests to AFRAWFRAW! I really do...Apparently because I believe gay rights I'm probably a gay man.
Since I believe in the rights of transgender people I must be transgender.
And since I believe that the sun is a ball of hydrogen gas engaged in a prolonged nuclear reaction, I must be a ball of hydrogen gas engaged in a prolonged nuclear reaction. Now how can I use that to power my car.
Perhaps that's why I never needed religion... I found my sanctity early on via singing & performing. CJ and I were just discussing following one's passion, and how "blessed" I was by being able to do so with my career until my body gave out. I can't perform on stage anymore, but I still sing constantly, and play guitar when the arthritis allows my fingers to do so. I'm also blessed to have a 20 yr. old son who shares my passion, is a tremendously talented musician (guitar, keys, drums, harp; you name it! lol), and loves to sit and jam with Mom often. Music is my therapy. I can take all of my stress and put it up into the music. Life's B.S. may still be there, but for me music so easily relieves the stress that comes with it.To be religious just means you sought sanctity and found it in something, right?
Religion fills a lot of needs just like your music...My sanctity lies in science. Facts are reliable and only change through progress. So I have an open mind, but realize that OUR science is being discovered by HUMANS, who are flawed by nature.

ITA with this. However, upon speaking of finding personal sanctity, my thoughts went straight to emotional ("spiritual") comfort. After all, my opinion (and that of many others) is that the fulfillment religion provides most (all?) believers when all is said and done is emotional.Religion fills a lot of needs just like your music...My sanctity lies in science.
