If you have something to say, say it. If you want to debate me on live or unedited tv, let’s go.

I’m in a pub drinking a beer. I hope that last hickup wasn’t the beer!

Government certainly has a right and a duty to legislate against rape, murder and incest. Those involve force and violating the rights of others. But I don’t think government has any business legislating private morality such as who you can have sex with (excepting children), what you can think, what kind of food you can eat or what god you should pray to. Those involve the natural right of self determination. Marriage falls under public morality and can be legislated. It involves consent of others. Likewise with drugs because they impair judgement and are a danger to others besides the one taking them. Likewise abortion because it involves the life of others.

Second, the ‘plank’ comment wasn’t directed specifically at the OP but is a general statement that everyone has faults and sins including ourselves and if we cut off everyone who has sins, we have to cut off everyone including ourselves.

MN, gotta give you credit, half the time you drive me nuts, such as in Ron Paul threads, and the other half, and the other half, I love your articulating of common sense (such as here and in pop-culture/South Park/Romney/humor threads).

You've always been one of my favorites to have a healthy debate with, going all the way back to the '07/'08 Paultard threads. Wish I got to spend a bit more time sparring, but have been busy as all heck lately.

My best for you and yours for an awesome Christmas and a great '12.

The only thing evil needs to succeed is for good people to say nothing.

The Communist Manifesto was authored in 1848 by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. It has little if anything to do with your link, which quotes Cleon Skousen, not the Communist Manifesto.

1), what in the world makes you presume that I or anyone else would want to go on television with you?

2) I said exactly what I meant to say: That in her innocence, LJ did not see the double entendre in her post. It’s not a bad a thing, and I meant it as a compliment as the cheerful wording should have suggested if you weren’t already in a huff to be offended.

would it make you sleep better if I write communist rules and a report on it in 1963?

If so then I will do that next time as I don’;t want you getting all upset with some wording.

Are you not pissed off with what it states because it seems you are more obsessed with how I worded it and yes you have been the only one ?

Oddly enough, I’ve been here way longer than you. Even immoral, p***ing, psychotic trolls, are people.

Merry Christmas lj, and may peace be upon you.

Your past posting history is all I have, and in my opinion there’s little to no credibility for you on this subject. In my opinion your about as honest as Obama.

Constitutionally guaranteed right to free speech applies to the public square. Free Republic is privately owned and run and thus “free speech” doesn’t apply here in all circumstances. Deal with it.

Anytime you want to debate the facts on homosexuality, start a thread and ping me.

You won’t, but thought I’d throw it out there so everybody can see it.

<><><><

OK. Now this has gotten a bit silly, don’t you think? This is an opinion thread, someone asking for advice on how to deal with a particular situation. I can assure you, without fear of contradiction, that you have studied homosexuality far more than I have, and can cite many more facts about it than I really care to know. There would be no point in my debating you. You win. Congratulations.

Doesn’t change, though, what we’ve been opining about.

I'll sleep well either way, however that would be the correct way, yes.

Are you not pissed off with what it states because it seems you are more obsessed with how I worded it and yes you have been the only one ?

Pissed off? No. However, it's important for accuracy to note that it's Cleon Skousen's words that were read into the congressional record, and not an actual communist document stating their goals as many believe. Although, you are the first I've encountered to have believed it was the Communist Manifesto.

As for me being the only one: That doesn't have any bearing on whether or not I'm correct.

He likes me better. He wanted me to go on TV with him. He just wants you to start a thread.

Indeed. You still don’t know what the hell you’re talking about.

Now that’s a rather serious charge. Could perhaps point me to one of these untruths that has led you to this conclusion?

Ah, so you call me a liar and decline to back the charge up? Typical.

Since I don’t know you personally, I base that on your previous posting history and your inability to discuss scientific facts. Now, I’m on a phone typing this in the mountains with poor coverage. If you care to discuss the facts let’s do it sometime soon. You won’t because as you’ve previously demonstrated, you can’t. Just wanted to throw that out there. I’ll check back for any smart-ass comments tomorrow.
