This Forum is full of hate

[Chalchalero]

Is "bigoted" and "hatred" the biggest words you can use? Cause you sure like to use them a lot, and when called to task for their use, run away or cry "hate, hate, hate".

Expecting, and demanding that a group, people, organization, corporation, religion, or club stand up and take responsibility for their current and past actions isn't hate.

Disagreement is not hate.

I agree. The crap you have posted IS HATE, however.

No, IT IS NOT. You just disagree with what I've said. Stop trying to emotionalize disagreement with others.

I am not emotional. Hate is an emotion, ergo the one emotionalising would be you.

I am logically and unemotionally calling a spade a spade. Do not be such a hypocrite and deny what you are. Do you even read your own posts?

 

[RationalLunacy]

Reading through some of these pages, there's little overt hate (sometimes the words is even used), and plenty of discreet hate, or atleast what could be perceived as hate because it damn sure sounds like it.

You forgot the occasional snippets of sarcasm.

Er.. you would know if you have read the entire post. Again the gay community is merely the sum of those are gay.

So all of the gay people that band together to fight things, create pride parades, and take part in organized rallies don't constitute a "community"? Define "community" so that we are at least on the same page...

And what does that have to do with the "gay community" you referenced? Did these books derive from the relgion of homosexuality?

Dude; follow your own arguments.

[After pointing out that the anti-homosexual parts of The Bible were mistranslations]
Says you

Actually, no. There have been a number of posts here at JUB alone have pointed out that a lot of the translations simply weren't possible (because the words simply didn't have analogs in English), and that the translation from Greek or Hebrew was hardly accurate.

Um, it's not in opposition....that is if enough people don't want it to be. Apprently, that's the way things work now. Secondly, I am saying that an increase in secularism, not Christian or religious compassion, is responsible for the strides in gay rights. Still weird?

Still not sure "secularism" means what it does for me that it does for you. Especially as I'm seeing more spiritual people back gay rights, which would seem to be the opposite of "a movement backing the separation of church and state".

I'm starting to hit the point where I think you have your own private dictionary; care sharing?

WTF are you talking about?

Pointing out that you are using some fallacious thinking of your own, without backing it up, and specifically for fanning the flames of hatred. In other words, you're arguing that 2+2=39, and not bothering to show how you got that result. Worse, when you are told that 2+2=4, you point out how wrong the person is.

Basically, I'm pointing out that you are making leaps of logic that require some serious wirework in order to work....

A.) Agnostic is not "baby steps" away in most opinions.

Definitely; however:

B.) I'm a Taoist.

How can you be Taoist and agnostic?

C.) Yes, I know the bible forwards, backwards, and inside out.

Which version? Please don't say King James....

Attack dogs? On these JUB forums I haven't seen barely a post or two by the x-tian contingent defending their faith via well reasoned, thought out, logical debate, but rather "OMG, stop the hate!" posts.

Well, see, that's your problem. I have no idea who these "x-tian" people are, but if you could point some website out so I could find out who they are, it would be most appreciative...

[In case you can't parse sarcasm, part of the issue is that you want us to recognize you as an agnostic Taoist, but you aren't willing to recognize me as a Christian. If that doesn't demonstrate some sort of bias, I don't know what does....]

If you can't defend your position, that doesn't mean you are being attacked, it means you simply can't or able to defend your position.

Actually, you haven't defended yours very well (especially when you believe that "x-tians" exist); could you be bothered to do so?

I never said I was agnostic. Not sure where you made that assumption.

X-tians celebrate X-mas. Check it out some time.
