It isn’t a reason to hate.

Not wanting their parents to make decisions for them is what motivates people to hitchhike to New York City at age 15.

Yes but not at minus eight months.

That was a joke.

The Way, Withering, and Alterations, all by a certain Jacob Martin…

While I was playing them, my brother asked me how long the song was. I said two minutes, and he asked me why all the songs sounded so similar. I had to explain that I was listening to a CD, and it was because they were all the same genre, by the same artist…

I guess I’ve taken the first step to joining the old fogey’s club with the rest of you. 😄

Kids don’t know what CDs are anymore?!

Yeah it’s a sin, but if you don’t believe that then what does it matter? I have a level of fondness for nondenominational churches even though I fell away from the belief system.

You could say I’ve worked nights if homework counts… This past year, there have been several nights during which I did homework from 4 pm to 4 am and got up at 6:30 (sometimes multiple nights in a row), plus a couple all-nighters.

I wouldn’t say homework counts. What high school gives 12 hours worth of homework?

He already created two socks, so I think his temp ban has been elevated to permanent ban.

Do you have proof those were him?

It’s a possibility.

Well that settles it.

I think it’s a safe assumption, but you’re right, there’s not enough evidence to convict.

No one is forcing celibacy on anyone. At least not in the 1st world. I’m not sure what Richard Olie, Jr. is saying, but there is a difference between requesting celibacy and not having sex with the same gender. Not that either is anyone’s business, but the two are different requests. I wouldn’t call either of those hateful.

That’s quite the generalization.

I was joking.

If only Hansi was still here to make a hilarious Markdown post which consists entirely of the same thing the OP posted.

I wonder if he’ll ever be unbanned.

Ah, that’s what you’re getting at. A person’s vocation (whether it be marriage, the priesthood, lay celibacy, or the religious life) is pretty much predetermined by God. It is the decision of the individual to follow it or not.
In the case of gays and lesbians, their vocation is celibacy.

Their vocation is not having sex with people of the same gender.

The idea that our lives shouldn’t be difficult and sometimes painful is not one that I subscribe to, however, and I’m afraid that while I have sympathy for people who suffer this way, I don’t think remaining celibate is the end of the world.

That’s pure hatred.

A think a more appropriate title for the game would be Pokemon Go Get a Life.

That’s pretty condescending and mean. I mean, these people are going outside.

None of them have jobs.

Went to bed at 3 in the afternoon yesterday, woke up now at 9 in the morning. Never felt so disoriented in my life. I hate being sick.

And I went to bed at 4 in the morning and woke up at 3:45… I’ve never slept in so long before, even when I’ve gone to bed at 5 and didn’t set my alarm clock. 😛

You’ve never worked nights then.

EDIT: Nevermind, I forgot you are still in school, lol.

Save up money. Even a cheap apartment would at least be quieter.

Just gotta love my parents. When they’re not sabotaging my life, they’re sabotaging my dreams.

Then move out!

Christianity (or at least Christianity based solely on the Bible) is inherently “anti-gay” in the sense that it claims homosexual relations are ungodly. I don’t see how any churches can honestly get around the fact that it’s made clear in both New and Old Testaments.

Resign yourself to the bottom rung?

No, but don’t go calling yourself a “meager existence” who has no benefit for humankind.

Exactly!

in my point of view non existence is preferable to a meager one. But that’s pretty much a completely separate topic.

Yeah, we can’t agree on that one.

I know you won’t answer me because you’re pouting, but I wonder what your personal situation is, especially since you seem to be 100% against any abortions for any circumstance…at least I’m led to believe that by the blanket statements you always make.

I don’t care to share much personal information, but this is important to respond to. I’m not against abortion in medically necessary cases, and I don’t recall ever saying that I was.

Have you had sex?

It’s none of your business, but yes, and I regret a certain amount of it.

Do you have kids? Have you fathered a fetus that will not survive outside the womb?

No.

Have you ever been in any situation you tell others “too bad” or “shit happens” about?

Yes, I’ve made many terrible decisions and gotten myself into many horrible situations. Situations that have been the death of better men than me; by some miracle I’m still here. No one was there to catch me when I fell.

I’ve found this statement to be true (at least most of time):
“City streets don’t have much pity, and when you’re down that’s where you’ll stay.” - Joe Walsh

I have sympathy but I can’t change how the world works. Life is rough and that’s a reality that everyone needs to come to terms with, pretending otherwise is foolish. I know that sounds really heartless and cold, but oh well. I guess you don’t understand my perspective. 😉

I’m guessing if nothing else, you haven’t been raped. I wonder if that might give you a different perspective.

Yeah, it probably would. There’s plenty of things I (as well as you) haven’t gone through that would change our perspectives.

With adoption a person can be put in a toxic environment in which they can be abused. Furthermore they can have feelings of inadequacy and abandonment.

Life’s a bitch.

Huh. So you got sexually harassed at work today. Welp, can’t do anything about that. Life’s a bitch.

Using “they might have it rough” as an excuse for abortion isn’t legitimate to me. Essentially, it is saying that there isn’t anything you can do. Just terminate it.

And again why should a woman lose more control over her body? It’s as if she’s being punished for being raped. How I see it it’s pretty much telling her “I know you’ve been through a traumatic event and all but deal with it for the sake of the unborn baby you did not ask for”

Let’s say we make an exception for that. What about abortions that are for the sake of not wanting a child?

Is no one going to bring up how insane it is that religion allows people to feel entitled to any opinion at all about other people’s sexuality? Because that’s the kicker for me.

Everyone is entitled to any opinion at all about other people’s sexuality.
