ROTFLMAO

Cat is just a nice person who doesn't have opinions about others except those that have "opinions about others".

One must be Christ-like to have opinions about behavior don't you know?

Relativism is a wonderful thing....sort of like equivocating morality....the grease that keeps our indignation and guilt rolling along.

[Paul Atreides]

Some have to come here to let everyone know how progressive they are.

Sorry folks, you engage in abnormal behavior for your developmental behavioral disorder, and need counseling, not raising kids, to get you back to normalcy. Absolutely sickening.

Brings to mind a story about the child of a woman I met once or twice... Woman dabbled in lesbian lifestyle for some years... Heard recently that her kid (teenager) was in jail for molesting young children... First thing I thought when I heard, was, "I hope she now realizes the impact that her lifestyle had on her kid." Too little too late.

..why would they want them to be gay, so people like you can sneer at them and treat them as sub-humans all their lives?...

...there's no sneering at the fact of them being gay. There's justifiable sneering at the way they've behaved. How would you feel if one day Dad and Dad told you, 'we bought you over the Internet and took delivery in the States'?

$75,000? A baby costs less than a Porsche? That's very, very frightening.

[man of Yosemite]

At some point in time the child will want to know who his mother is, and pointing at that fellow next to you isn't going to satisfy that question. He has every right to know the lineage he comes from, not only for subjective reasons but for health reasons as well. This experiment in changing the God-given requirements of marriage and family is doomed to fail.

[wardaddy]

and to be indignant at those of us who have the gall to have views on behavior.

.."do not consider her the boy's mother"

Whether they consider it or not she is...

[Byron_the_Aussie]

..$75,000? A baby costs less than a Porsche?...

Yep. And my guess, often bought for the same motivations. Note that unless otherwise stated the amounts quoted are in Australian dollars: about 0.65 to your dollar. Cheers, By

[maxwell]

Whether they consider it or not she is...

Not technically. IIRC, she was implanted with others' goods.

I don't suppose you ever actually READ the Bible, did you?

Let he who is without sin....?

Lots of FReepers think they are without sin, I guess. Wonderful for them.

It didn't say "Let he who has LESS sin by their own reckoning cast the first stone..."

The gay people I've known were not obnoxious about it. So I don't hate them. Sorry about that.

[Paul Atreides]

Yes, we must be silenced or shamed, in the face of relativism.

Why would they want them to be gay, so people like you can sneer at them and treat them as sub-humans all their lives?

They are not "gay". They are two men who engage in homosexual acts. Homosexuality is not a condition or a state of being or a race of people. It is a behavior. An action. It's more of a verb than a noun.

I would compare it to being a shoplifter but I don't want to give you an aneurism.

But then, it's not even possible for me to "give" you an aneurism. So to hell with it. A shoplifter is not a race of people. It's a person who engages in a particular activity. In this case it's someone who shoplifts.

Should I call 911 for you?

[Jeff Chandler]

Can I throw stones?

Yes. As long as you don't throw like a girl.

LOL! Now THAT's funny.

[Jeff Chandler]

Jesus never said "Since you are all sinners, you must never acknowlege your Father's definition of sin".

[F.J. Mitchell]

"Exactly. Who on earth would choose to be gay?"

Hells bells, everyone on earth would choose to be gay. Only idiots would choose to be sad. On the other hand though, if your question is "Who on earth would choose to be homosexual?" The only rational response to your question would be: Only those homosexuals who swish around calling themselves gay.
