    Stuff like this is why I rag on religion.
    :doh: :bang:

    It's not all like that, but hoooo-weeee is there a lot of it.
    :no:

    All those people could be flying a kite, or patting a dog, or making love, or baking a pie or something, but no, they're plunking down cash to do....that shit.
    Sending prayer-rays at...what..the concept of gayness?
    WTF???

    1) Just because the other side has its crazies as well doesn't make you any less crazy. I am constantly amazed by the people who are willing to settle for "Well, the other side isn't any better" when their shortcomings are pointed out. It sounds like a bunch of schoolkids: "It wasn't me! It was them, too!"

    2) I notice that nowhere in that was there any reference to "hating" or to "fags." That was your addition. I defend the right of homosexuals to marry as well, but I don't feel the need to reduce all those who disagree with me to "God hates fags" people. Why do you?

    Yeah, sure Dickie. With some of the Hoodoo you believe, you've got no room to rag people for religion.

    Was anyone else blinded by the irony of bryce posting a hate mongering thread complaining about hate mongers?


    I'm going to bet he doesn't even have the brain power to get it.

    And that is your problem.

    Stuff like this should be the reason you rag on the extremists among the religious. By "ragging on religion" because of the extremists, you put yourself in the exact same case as those who "rag on Islam" because of what the Islamic extremists do.

    It is not our fault that you are unable to aim your just ire only at those who are deserving of it. And the fact that you get the same derision from those who realize that not all the religious are the same, as the "hate all the towlies" people get from those who realize than not all Muslims are the same, is hardly the fault of those who can distinguish between the two, is it?

    Whence is the hate, Archie?

    One can't observe clearly kooky behavior with exasperation and bewilderment?

    Where's your fake-righteous ass in the Khaddafi thread?

    Just answer the question.

    Do you believe that psychotherapy can cure asthma?

    Is that a hard one? There're two anwers: Yes or no.

    And who deserves it?
    Hmm?

    How extreme do the extremists have to get?

    Al-Queda? Fred Phelps? Makers and participants of videos like this?
    Kirk Cameron? Can I call him wacky?

    Point me out a "sensible", level of superstition.

    I mean, I acknowledge there's a point where it's relatively harmless, where it ought to be left alone, but where do YOU draw the line?

    The grievance seems to be I don't pick the people you'd pick.
    That seems hypocritical to me.

    No, there's a third, depends.

    Again, why do you ask?

    Why do I ask? In response to this:





    No, there is no third: Asthma is a physiological disorder. Medical science doesn't see a third option. There's no three ways about it, Dickie, so why the dance?

    Do you believe that psychotherapy can cure asthma?

    But the video is well done. Very effective, if you're into that kind of things.

    Just because you say so?

    Are you a doctor?

    Cuz it's a weird question to pull out of your ass.

    What are you trying to get at?
    Come out with it.
    Whatever you think you've got, I'm not afraid.

    And the people whom are into those kinds of things are very scary.




    Frankly, I'm amazed they even let them outside of the hospital...

    No, I'm not a doctor. However reputable doctors and research organizations say that there is no cure for asthma, and have the science on their side.

    Do you believe that psychotherapy can cure asthma, Dickie? Really, if you say you do, you're admitting that you believe in metaphysical, pseudo-science that is, by your standards, every bit as loopy as faith healing.

    So...what's it going to be, Dickie?

    Here's how fucking retarded you are, bryce: That avatar was a troll. I was trolling you, you stupid fuck.

    I don't challenge dark matter at all, and am absolutely fascinated by the theory. I put that up to see if you'd react, and you absolutely did.

    Thanks for the lulz.

    I'm still not clear on the point of it all....
    ...are they sending their prayers at the evil force field of gayness, and hoping it crumbles?

    ...or...at the ineffable concept of marriage, and hoping it strengthens?

    In either case, why don't they just...y'know...don't have gay sex, and be good to their spouses???
    Shouldn't that do the trick?

    Or...are they trying to bend the fabric of timespace, to avoid legislation from passing?
    ...and how, exactly?
    Make someone drop the pen?
    ..or...maybe the needed legislators to pass it..die?
    What's up with this?
    What's actually being prayed for?

    ...and why does it have to be MASS prayer??
    One won't do the trick?
    God has to be bombarded, like NBC to keep a show on?

    It's all very confusing.

    This is about your whacked out, non-scientific beliefs Dickie. You'd be hard pressed to keep bashing religious believers with science if you believe some moronic, pseudo-scientific drivel like this.

    I'm not surprised you're afraid to admit that you do.

    Answer the question Dickie. If you don't believe it, this can stop right now, and I owe you an apology.

    It's simple. I'm asking the source. Do you believe that psychotherapy can cure asthma?

    If you answer, "No", this whole thing goes away.

    There's no threat at all, Dickie.

    But, I'm not going to belabor this any longer. Obviously, there's a reason why you don't want to answer the question.

    It's not really hard to figure out why.

    So much for all that science, huh?

    Evidence of these so-called anti-science beliefs please?

    Something that can be asserted without evidence can rightly be dismissed without evidence.
    You don't seem to have any.
    Just a tissue of strange insinuations.
