and there is something else I stand about Bingo: everything is a joke to him.   Someone tried to make a serious point against, make a stupid joke nonsense post. that solves everything.   Honestly,  I am not sure I can take his sh** much longer.  I am afraid it is looking more and more like it will have to be either him or me in this forum.  

Dude, it's almost as if you're talking about Frink ..... maybe Bingo and Frink are each others socks?  Or maybe at least they smell each others socks because they're room mates @ some Homey Home for Boys.

Think about it ..................  ;)

 See Fo 1, this is why I don't leave you alone.

 Frink, I've tried reasoning with him, I've tried ignoring him.   I'm just not sure what else there is to do. 

Try harder to ignore him. It's silly to leave just because you don't get along with someone.

Warb have you tried getting along with me?

It's a radical idea but read me out and see if this makes sense before you post something either furious or self belittling.

Reading every post I make as veiled or not so veiled attack against you is not doing our relationship any favours.

You say I mock your religious beliefs but by your own reply you admit I do not.

I was comparing some conspiracy theorists to biblical literalists which I seem to think you were distancing yourself from. Correct me if I'm miss-reading you here.

If you really do believe every word in both books of the Bible are literally true I confess I mock you because it's stupid.

No serious Christian commentator takes every word as being literally true. There is a lot of metaphor and poetry in the Bible that to take seriously would require a flat Earth membership card. Even the Church founders appreciated this and I'm sure you do too, well I hope you do.

You accused Puggo of doing the same and then realised he didn't either.

You seem to be in a constant state of confusion which could be easily solved in most situations by just looking stuff up using the search bar probably in the top right hand side of the same screen you are reading from.

It's not just me you do this with so while I freely confess to confusing the hell out of some people on here, some of them actually enjoy looking up what they don't understand and finding the results for themselves. Some people actually enjoy the confusion for it's own sake. Most people ignore it, I'd imagine.

You used to quote reams of text turning American politics into some sort of sports commentary by giving your constitutional interpretation of almost anything so you can grasp facts when you want to.

While many people on here don't share my sense of humour (which is understandable seeing as we come from all around the world and span many epochs), most people seem to understand when I'm trying to be funny and don't just take offense at the act of trying to be funny, like you seem to.

What does make you laugh BTW?

Despite all this confusion you are comfortable judging others, calling them weird (I haven't heard much from Gaffer Tape recently and I hope he comes back) because of the clothes they wear or the manner of their voice.

And we get discussion like this one, over and over and over again.

Should I post here, should I leave this, should I revive that, am I being a spoiled brat, why doesn't user XB3 just leave me alone etc?

Nobody else here post like that, you are unique so embrace your unique qualities and be a bit positive once in a while.

Lighten up big fella.There is a world of potential out there but if you are going to get fizzy because of people doing things differently or you just not knowing stuff you are in for one hell of an awful life and I don't wish that on you or anyone...hmm..well maybe George Osborne but not you.

Yes, have you tried getting along with me?

I know not every one of your posts is a veiled or not so veiled attack against me and what I hold dear. But some are.

You say I mock your religious beliefs but by your own reply you admit I do not.

I was comparing some conspiracy theorists to biblical literalists which I seem to think you were distancing yourself from. Correct me if I'm miss-reading you here.

I admit in this one case, I was was wrong.   But you have in the past mocked  my religous beliefs.

If you really do believe every word in both books of the Bible are literally true I confess I mock you because it's stupid.

I don't believe every word is literally true.   But how you you like it if I said " I confess I mock you for being gay because it's stupid"  that would hurt wouldn't it?

You seem to be in a constant state of confusion which could be easily solved in most situations by just looking stuff up using the search bar probably in the top right hand side of the same screen you are reading from.

I suppose I could look stuff up more, but I don't see what is wrong with politely asking a question.   Also not everything can answered via google.   I wonder why Ryan posted "warner brothers" how would google tell me that?

You used to quote reams of text turning American politics into some sort of sports commentary by giving your constitutional interpretation of almost anything so you can grasp facts when you want to.

I do admit to being addicted to the quote button.  Not sure what is meant by "giving your constitutional interpretation of almost anything so you can grasp facts when you want to".

While many people on here don't share my sense of humour (which is understandable seeing as we come from all around the world and span many epochs), most people seem to understand when I'm trying to be funny and don't just take offense at the act of trying to be funny, like you seem to.

Some people use humor to make others and themselves laugh and have a good time.   Some use it as a weapon and hurt people's feeling with it and you it to avoid serious debate.    You seem to be of the 2nd category.

What does make you laugh BTW?

The Three Stooges, for one thing(and I mean the original stooges not that movie that movie that came out a couple of years ago). 

Despite all this confusion you are comfortable judging others, calling them weird (I haven't heard much from Gaffer Tape recently and I hope he comes back) because of the clothes they wear or the manner of their voice.

I'm sorry, but I just can't help that when I see Johnny Weir, my weird detectors go off.   This should not be taken as me saying he is evil or anything.  As for Gaffer,  I certainly hope I did not chase hime away.  I doubt I did,  he should know by now that I consider him a good friend on here.

 

 And we get discussion like this one, over and over and over again.

 have you considered that maybe, maybe that it is remotely possible that some of the reason  for this could be your fault.  But no, of course not.   Nothing is ever your fault.   You never ever doing anything that you should apologize for.

Should I post here, should I leave this, should I revive that, am I being a spoiled brat, why doesn't user XB3 just leave me alone etc?

unlike you, If I am behaving in a way that negatively impacts on others, I'd like to know about it and how I can correct it.   I like to seek advice and learn what others think.

Strange that you see it that way since you are the one who likes to pull the humiliation card first.  Bingo seems okay about it, what's your deal?  Lost your sense of humor?

I'm sorry if I was so hurtful it made you cry.

You sure like to invent things to make yourself feel better.  It wasn't hurtful.  I just thought it was worth pointing out that I had been leaving you alone and then you gave me a reason not to.

I am not afraid of you Frink.  It was light-hearted humor as is plainly seen.  You gotta get even with me for it ..... knock yourself out.  It matters not.

Warb you do no that being homosexual isn't a life choice? You can chose to act on it if the circumstances allow or not but you can't look at a brochure and decide homosexuality is for you because it matches the curtains or something.

Being a Christian requires active decisions. To read and attempt to understand the Bible and it's history, to be part of a community of people who do the same thing, to understand the rules of that community and decide if they balance with your faith or if they no longer make sense or if they are too difficult or inconvenient to stick to.

Being Homosexual has no rule book, no fixed community, no fixed etiquette but like all forms of sexuality aspects of it are kind of undignified if you decontextualise it.

There are certain stupid homosexuals, just as there are stupid Christians. There are probably less stupid gays because there are less gays than Christians.

I think my homosexuality is stupid as I have to constantly defend it while my ethical decisions (deciding to opt into two monogamous relationships spanning two decades)  has meant I hardly get to indulge it other than in the gap years.

I love the Stooges too. It's a shame their humour was almost entirely physical as it's almost impossible to reference it here. I must confess to being more of a brothers Marx fan...Karl leaves me in stitches :-D

The weather here is very windy and rainy. I have beans that I'm trying coax out of their pots in a little green house thing about the size of a small chest of drawers.

I can't leave them outside the cover because the wind would blow the pots over and birds would get at the beans.

So I have to go outside in the rain and the wind to water plants.

wheter you choose to be homosexual or born that way, it really doesn't alter the point I was making.

I really have never understood the big deal made about whether or not it is a choice.  Either way, I think you should be free to pursue that life style if you wish to.  

As to whether or not it is a choice, I will leave that to experts(doctors, scientists, shrinks, ect)  to decide.  

I love the Stooges too. It's a shame their humour was almost entirely physical as it's almost impossible to reference it here. I must confess to being more of a brothers Marx fan...Karl leaves me in stitches :-D

 I like the Marx Brothers too...Groucho, Harpo, Chico and Zeppo that is(it is too bad the 5th Marx Brother, Gummo, never made it into any of the movies). 

Oddly enough, the conversation about being born gay is one I've had with some of my own gay friends.  I have had some pretty shady gay friends on FB that preach vehemently that it is fact.

I did my own research and found that the truth is scientists do not have 100% proof that this is true.  The believe it to be the case but cannot nail down the gene's or proteins they believe to be responsible for being born gay.  They are still searching.

My FB friend called me a slew of horrible names before defriending me because he felt I was just trying to be mean towards gays.

I am fine with people of the world pursuing the lifestyle of their choice as long as it's not forced on others .... just like my belief about religion as I am agnostic.  I do find it weird that when you bring actual fact in to a discussion that some people just go apeshit because they know what you're talking about but don't want to admit the possibilities of it's accuracy at that point in time.

:)

The human genome has only recently been mapped and we don't know what all the genes in a banana do. Also not all biological determinants are genetic. Chemicals introduced into the placenta can effect the development of the fetus. Maybe it was all those Malteasers my mother craved during pregnancy?

It's observed in nature and not just opportunistic sex (you find animals of the same gender pair bonding).

I certainly never chose to be homosexual.

It's very restrictive, most people aren't homosexual so the chances of meeting someone and clicking with them enough to get to know them and maybe enter into a relationship and marrying them are lowered drastically (especially when it's illegal).

Then there is all the name calling, the violence, the nonsense written on the internet and on the news etc

It would be a lot easier for me if I wasn't in this state so I doubt I would have chosen it as I'm by nature indolent most of the time.

Outside theocracies anyone following a religion chooses to and chooses to believe things without recourse to reason. That is not the same thing as finding yourself attracted to the same gender.

You don't have to believe anything to be homosexual you just have to fancy one section of the population over another.

It's no different from being attracted to people with ginger hair.

Calling any attraction to people with ginger hair stupid would be pretty stupid, especially it came from a book where the prejudice is attributed to a bronze age desert God.

See the distinction?

No one is forcing you to be gay, Fo 1.  Get over yourself.

Oh good, here goes my phone double posting again.

It's a point worth saying twice :-D
