Hey, I see our friend the Rev. Fred Phelps hasn't posted anything about gay marriage on his site. You'd think he'd be foaming at the mouth about it.

He has caught on to our friend Molly and those evil Australians though. What a loon.... perhaps he has been reading Fez.

Doesn't Berz live in Topeka? If so I wonder if he'll see this:

Wasn't homo fascism an Apolyton invention, and WTF is a gay-enabler?

Interesting. Not intended, but sometimes that's how they work.



Good point. However, I argue that marriage cannot be a fundamental human right because it requires two people to exercise the right.

As for perversion? I think that there are many things people do that count among that number. Sodomy is one of those, a perversion of the purpose of sex.

But again, by that same standard, I too am perverted for some of my earlier actions in my life. So we are all in this together.

What if the new Atheist government decided that no self-proclaimed Christians could get married, let alone have sex as they fear the growth of fundamentalist fanatics?

I knew I was gay before I slept with anybody.

Good. That fits with what I know.

The proclivities are what you are born with.

Now, is it possible for you to go without sleeping with anyone for long periods of time?

[Ben Kenobi]

is a gay-enabler?

Anyone who associates with gays.

Within the realm of the state to restrict marriage.

Now, get real. Christians, if anything, are very good at concealing these sort of escapades.

I keep getting reminded of that old joke about Baptists.

Baptists are like cats. You know they **** each other, but you never catch them in the act.

Like you?

[Ben Kenobi]

Yep.

I don't shun gays, therefore I'm a gay enabler.

I should put that on my location sig.

Anyway, you must be tired.

I am, and it's 2:30 in the morning.

[Agathon]

It's reading week. I didn't get up until 1pm.

So you'd agree with the government at this point?

Well, I had to be up at 8:30am. Laundry and everything needed to be done for the weekend. I hate doing Laundry on weekends, so I try to have everything done by Thursday, if not then, by Friday.

I've been invited to go out to a Summit tomorrow, which is a ecumenical service held by the Catholics. They all go out to dinner afterwards, and we have a really good time.

Denise is still in Kelowna, but I'll be seeing plenty of my other friends.

Government can choose whether or not to recognise marriages at all. That's one of the options pondered by the current Liberal administration is to do away with the institution of civil marriages, sponsored by the state.

For Fezzieboy, it's mandatory...

Sartre argued that everyone finally decides what they want to be. I'm not sure whether I agree with him, but there is a phenomenological case to be made for it. One of his examples is a homosexual. In his view people have all sorts of desires, but there is nothing about these which removes the reality of having to choose whether or not to follow them.

So it's not just Christians who think homosexuality is a choice, but atheistic existentialists. Strange bedfellows....

What? Sleeping with hotties? Only if I am in a relationship with one.

I'm atheist existentialist and I do not believe that crap. Homosexuality is not a choice, not anymore than heterosexuality.
