Thousands of criminals in prison. Doesn't make crime legitimate. Gay marriage is marriage between two people in love. The only reason to oppose it is hate. You, I recall, don't even hide behind the cloak of superstition. Millions of people vote conservative but I don't see many people around here say that means they agree with their policies.

No Akenaton. You are wrong. I never post hate and to be accused of it by the most objectionable bigot on Mudcat is rather offensive.

My refusal to accept the insults that you hurl at gays, the insinuation that rational people with no religious delusions have a past that stopped them being superstitious is so insulting that Jack the Sailor will always be challenged.

You two decided to hijack this thread. It was a self deprecating thread for a laugh till you two and others such as Ron whassiname turned up.

You twist figures and promote hate. Don't you dare even begin to have a pop at me. I for one am at peace with myself and laugh more than I am sad. I don't need to blame huge sections of society, don't need to be grateful to a mythical concept for my situation and never, ever let go when challenging hate and prejudice. Never seen the need to ignore it you see. It just seems to let them think their position is acceptable in polite society. Well it ain't.
