Re: The Power of SCOTUS V: The Final Frontier
Bob is saying that people are born black, so you can't hold that against em. But since they choose to be gay, they get what they deserve, and if they don't like it they should just pray it away.

Well, that was my first reaction too, but I was trying to give him the benefit of the doubt and give him the chance to explain to us what he was really saying.

I think any reasonable person would think he was irresponsible (and probably a slut)…. I'm not sure how that relates to the discussion though. I hope you are not suggesting that women who want to use birth control are irresponsible sluts? Or are you suggesting that maybe this guy (and those women) should have considered birth control?

Physics is king and Biology is queen and their rule is absolute.
Read the thread of my reply. The author of the original post opined that conservatives would praise the man and vilify the woman.

And the dude would be right...men are applauded for being promiscuous and women are called sluts. It has been that way for centuries...
How the Right has attacked Sandra Fluke shows it hasnt changed. I mean she was a slut because she wanted her birth control covered. (no evidence she was even promiscuous) Hell Rush implied she was a being paid for it! It hasnt stopped either...
Does that make the dude you talk to less deplorable...no. But look at how no one bats an eye at how many kids athletes have with multiple women...it wouldnt be the same the other way around.

Re: The Power of SCOTUS V: The Final Frontier
The promiscuity double standard comes from men controlling women as property. Fathers bartered their daughters' virginity and husbands enforced their wives' fidelity to ensure the line. The insistence on female purity is just a pressure to protect property rights.
Though deeply inbred in Christianity, this misogyny doesn't start with Christianity. There's probably no western culture as anti-woman as the pagan Greeks.
Sexual morality is about power. Of course a bunch of bitter, enfeebled, irrelevant old men are mortified that women are taking control of their own bodies and throwing money at trying to stop that. It threatens everything they are.
So much the better for us all that in another generation those people will be dead and their rules will be in the museum alongside prohibitions on teaching a slave to read.
In the meantime, though, we get another couple decades of LOLKNUCKS.

You and Priceless (as usual) are doing a wonderful job rebutting an argument nobody here has made (assuming, of course, you actually believe that twaddle is relevant in 2014). But it does justify your anti-religious inclinations, doesn't it?

Gonna bring out the entire libt*ard playbook on this one, aren't you? A middle aged "college girl" who can afford 60K tuition at a Catholic law school is somehow unwilling to cough up 25 bucks a month for generic birth control at Target and wants the federal government to force the Catholic university to cave in to her demands to provide it at no cost to her. And for this exercise is selfishness, you all have anointed her a hero. Limbaugh doesn't speak for me. So what she does in her private life is of no interest to me and none of my business besides. But your "outrage" at Limbaugh's choice of words is merely a dodge, a diversion from what you really believe: people and institutions of faith must bow down to Uncle Sam in these matters. The SCOTUS decision this week merely affirms RFRA, which passed Congress nearly unanimously (a total of 3 "no" votes in both houses), and you can't stand it.

I think they're saving a seat for you on that charter to the planet Hysteria. Alternatively, you might book a seat on the next flight to the planet Irrelevance. You guys, collectively, are so unoriginal while simultaneously thinking your musings are so devastating. "Fox News?" "Viagra" "Boner pills?" C'mon, you can hear better political arguments in the average high school football locker room.

They had football when you went to high school?

I. . .think. . .so. Actually, Bob Zuppke devised the huddle, screen pass and flea flicker while coaching at my high school. It was just few years before my time, however.

Speaking of bitter, enfeebled, irrelevant old men throwing money at stuff, America got a nice birthday present today.

His insanity helped Bill win twice. And then he checks out just in time to deny Hillary a billionaire donor. I doubt he could have worked it better if he was sane.
Grateful. May the other loons follow swiftly on.

It's got a nice ring to it. "Death to anyone who disagrees with me." Libt*rdism distilled to its essence.
