Hey, why don't we give special deals to child molesters and necropheliacs too. That's not ok with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elwood Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: et tu, Wal-Mart??? Wal-mart will no longer get my buisness. I did not like the crowds anyway. I don't care if they support a group but to give homo's presidence over a straight buisness owner is discrimation. Last I heard, that is agianst the law.

[/ QUOTE ] At the end of the day, do you honestly think this will affect your life? What if Wal-Mart chose to give vendor discounts to something you hold in high perosonal value. Say for example, the NRA, or maybe the National Wildlife Federation. Would you then say that is unfair to other vendors who don't share the same belief? Or would you commend Wal-Mart and tell everyone to shop there? That's my point, the bigger picture you guys tend to look right past when it isn't convenient for ya. You guys kill me with these witch hunts you feel are so virtuous just because someone told you it was. When you're pointing that finger, three are pointing right back at you.

Elwood Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: et tu, Wal-Mart??? Muggs I do not agree with you. And you sound extremely "holier-than-thou" by trying to tell me how I think. I could care less about the discounts, I care more about the message that this support sends to my children. I do not agree with their life style and certainly do not want my children to grow up thinking that this is a NORMAL life style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muggs Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: et tu, Wal-Mart??? [ QUOTE ] I do not agree with their life style [/ QUOTE ] There's a lot I don't agree with Elwood. But I don't make it a practice to let everyone know about it. And what you view as NORMAL doesn't necessarily mean everyone's gonna agree with you either. I just worry about my life and live it the way I see fit. In no way do I feel I'm in any position to judge anyone else, and label anything as "right" "wrong" "this" or "that." I don't agree with that life style either. I also don't agree certain political groups, cetain organizations. But I except the fact that its someone else's belief and I leave it at that.

WaCoyote Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: et tu, Wal-Mart??? Well now I feel really stupid. I didn't even read the link far enough to get to the discounts part. Because the whole gay debate just gets old. I thought they were just posturing to make it sound like they were so "tolerant" or whatever. So for that I was wrong and I do not agree with giving discounts to gay owned companies any more than I agree with racial quotas when hiring for government positions. As far as the gay lifestyle, I do not care. It does not affect me, and my kids wont be gay because people think it's acceptible. Your either gay or your not. I'm not and my kids arent. As I've posted before, I have several gay clients. They treat me with repect and I do the same. They don't flaunt it, nor do they hit on me. I talk to them the same as everyone else. One thing I know for sure is the fact that ALL of my gay clients pay there bills on time and are very easy to work with. Thats more than I can say for other "sub-groups" that I deal with. I think it's just plain weird how they live but hey, at the end of the day it just doesn't affect me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Nice comparison? WTF?? Shows the frame of reference you holier-than-thou types choose to view the world through. sad really. [/ QUOTE ] I think it's a perfectly resonable reference. In some countries neither pediphilia nor necrophilia are illigal. They have been deemed "natural feelings" by those countries and made legal. Just because someone might think one is more perverted than the other doesn't make any of them right. The gay lifestyle is a choice. Just because someone has a perverted feeling does not give them the right to say that it's normal or say it's ok, and certainly shouldn't give them special privilages. I don't judge, but I am charged by the word of God to point out sin when I see it. Fact- Mosaic law, given by God, gave specific penalties for different sins. Homosexuality, Pediphilia, Rape and many other sexual crimes, yes crimes, were punishable by death. Other sins had less harsh punishment ranging from paying retrobution all the way to being beat. Fact: I'm not Holier than anyone, but obviously more biblically minded than many. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the sad truth and when if anyone speaks up about it, the aclu is there to support those who are against us and it gets turned around as those trying to fight to keep their rights as being racist or trying to force their views and more and more we are losing our rights.
