Question?

[cawacko]

Cawacko, have you checked in with Jarod today?

Haha, darnit I forgot! My bad, sorry Jarod.

Jarod, I'm checking in from Lake Tahoe. The weather is perfect and the lake is beautiful. Been on the water most of the day but I'm here if anything needs asking.

When it is based on the ignorant statements in this thread it is a clear indication of bigotry.

Your opinion. Not a fact. My statements about Romney are my opinion, and they're based on what I know of the Mormon religion (a lot).

Your opinion is based in ignorance, spreading ignorance and promoting "fear", arguing to emotion...

See above.

Yeah, this is exactly what you believe others do when they speak of Muslims. Those who preach tolerance but practice this are at the very least hypocrites. When they do it with full knowledge they are bigots.

Bullshit. I feel the same way about all religions. I think those who choose dogma need dogma; I don't. I think it's silly, whether it's Mormon, Catholic or Muslim. I am qualified to make that judgment about people because I'm a member of the species.

"Zealot"? There is zero evidence either of the people running for the Presidency are "zealots".

Definition of Zealot: Fanatical partsan. Synonyms: Crusader, true believer, ideologue. Mitt's a zealot.

Did you know that the LDS Church (Mormons) believe that the US Constitution was inspired by God?

Yawn.

You know "a lot" that you have clearly been told by ignorant people... All believers are "bad" yet you think it is okay if it is a Christian? Sweet, sweet tolerance... <-This is sarcasm for those who cannot use past posts to note when it is being used.

And no, neither of the two running in the major parties are religious "zealots" based on those definitions and their actions.

All that I know was through members of the church itself; they were my former in-laws for 12 years. So regarding their "ignorance", looks like you're wrong again, Damo. Your arrogance is showing. You only think you know where I'm coming from, or you stupidly and wrongly assume my position in a way that you believe (erroneously) best presents your argument for you. Either way, it is you who's coming out of this looking arrogant, intolerant and hypocritical. Keep in mind that I don't give a shit what anyone wants to practice or believe; however, if I have a say in the matter (as I do with my vote) as to whether or not they're mentally fit to make decisions about my life, they get a thumbs-down.

You put quotations around the word 'bad'. Cite the post where I say all believers are "bad". Be sure to link the actual post. Thanks.

That would be hyper not hypo, and don't wait for him to prove himself wrong.

 

[Airstrip One]

Do I have to be the one to point out the flaw in anecdotal evidence?

 

[cancel2 2022]

So, a book written by somebody else, quoting somebody not talking about this election is "bringing his religion" to the election? And after it has been made clear that you are feeding bigots you continue to set the buffet?

You, sir, are a bigot. It's gross to watch somebody who is a victim of bigotry spread it and feed a different type of bigot.

You are so desperate to get rid of Obama you would vote for Tom Cruise!!

I'm still waiting for someone to support the claim that Romney has injected his "crazy beliefs" into politics, supported by direct statements/actions by Romney. I won't hold my breath, though.

So when you say, "Bullshit. I feel the same way about all religions. I think those who choose dogma need dogma; I don't. I think it's silly, whether it's Mormon, Catholic or Muslim. I am qualified to make that judgment about people because I'm a member of the species. "

That means you think believers are the bestest?

You are a religious bigot, and a hypocrite. You pretend that it is because of 'this' then hold nobody on your own 'side' to that same standard. It's all a stupid game, grouping a whole religion into some bag of 'bad' based on ignorant suppositions you watched with the 'in-laws'...

You must not have asked many questions, because the things you say and believe about them (as in this thread) are hacktacularly ignorant.

By now, if I had the same capacity to ignore reality as you do, once I had a sudden epiphany I would be embarrassed.

I think you guys should run on that. Tell everybody who believes that they are "silly"... I think it will do your party all sorts of good.

It's so stupid of you to pretend that she is speaking for dems or the democratic party. Atheists are a very small percentage of the population, regardless of political party so try and grow up baby boy.

Though I did read an interesting stat that younger people are showing startling high percentages of atheism. Kids these days huh?

She's talking about herself... At least catch up before you start in on this, Darla. Just seeing my name makes you want to talk to me... I know that. It's too much for you to avoid. But you should at least be on point before you start into this.

Plus Bijou doesn't need you to rush in and try to save her (especially when you are this off base) any more than you need somebody to rush in and try to save you.

Yes I know she's talking about herself. You are pretending she's speaking for a political party and telling her "you guys" should run on that. It's just childish.

Ah, yeah. That was childish sarcasm, mostly for fun (not every post can be all "angry" and stuff when I'm not angry).

I do think that having more people in your party telling believers they're "silly" will really work for you. I also think running in to defend people who think religious bigotry like the OP in this thread is just "cool" while they trash the idiots who do it to Muslims is a bit below you... I was a bit taken aback by that...

Why do you think it's below me? I'm a religious bigot, I can't stand any of them.

Speaking of which - Team Katie!

His 'crazy beliefs' were 'injected' into politics the moment he put HIMSELF into the arena. Every time his faith is mentioned, by him or his minions, and he doesn't denounce it, he is 'supporting' those beliefs. Hope that helps.

'You guys'. Your view is too shallow and simplistic on all of this for me to continue to attempt a meaningful discussion about it with you. Dismissed....

This is a typical tactic, Darla. He can only *win* the debate by throwing the partisan card. He already tried everything else: projecting my ignorance (and proving his own) by claiming my info on Mormonism came from 'ignorant people'; ad hom (I'm just a 'bigot') and now his 'you guys' demonization of whatever party he thinks I belong to. It's stale, overused, unoriginal and boring. That's why I'm done discussing it with him. He's fresh out of debating tools.

Care to provide an example? Just one will suffice.

But but but, she already did. She said that because Romney entered the election he was thus injecting all the beliefs of every Mormon into the race. LMAO... typical liberal woman, all hype no substance.
