You seem to believe
that being really loud, or not standing behind your words, or just plain twisting things around makes you likable somehow.

You have not been doing yourself any favors on this thread Dwight, do you know this.

Your own tactics are far more damaging than anything anyone could dream up there, old boy. You certainly are making an eloquent case for reason, though not in the manner you intended to make it, I am sure.

What are you talking about my imagination for? You have made repeated lists of homosexuals, lumping them together with people who are substance abusers, mentally ill, have committed violent crimes, and molested children.

I am sure Graystone has plenty of urls of these lists of yours, because they are so amazing, so I am not sure what you hope to obtain by denying you did that.

My point about your alcoholic friend is that without any real knowledge of the physiology or psychology of alcoholism, you not only labelled him a sinner, but told him that repeatedly, according to your own post about it, while he was in the throes of his illness. What a friend you are!!! If he believes you are a friend, you must be a lot more sympathetic than you seem to be in print, or he has zero self-esteem left and no real friends at all.

And you also compared alcoholics to homosexuals, because in your mind they are the same because they are sinners, although alcoholism is a disease and homosexuality is a trait or a disability, based on individual point of view, but certainly not a voluntary state.
