Jealous, my dear? You are definitely free to post your pics of yourself in a speedo and I promise we'll give them careful consideration. Or, if you're shy like Jefe, you can pm them to me.

Jefe, I don't want the one of you and the sycamore tree. I want a full view!!!!! (Thanks anyway, Miranda.)

I don't think I've ever worn a speedo in my life, unless my mom put one on me when I was a toddler. And if I had, I certainly wouldn't have commemorated the event with photographs...

The phrase "homosexual logic" is foolish. However, DHard does actually have an argument underneath it all. Having read JDD's tripe about how the rainbow means something from the Wizard of Oz, instead of a blatantly pro-homosexual message, I think DHard's comments here apply.

The underlying argument is sound - a business is predicated upon keeping customers happy, and when a businessman doesn't do that, his failure is his own doing.

Now I missed a bit of this thread as it was like on page 2 when I left it and on page 6 or 7 when I returned to it this afternoon. But from what I saw, it seems like there were some lame attempts to say hey the rainbow flag is about the Wizard of Oz or it's just a rainbow with pretty colors, it has nothing to do with homosexuality. DHard was essentially calling bullshit on that.

Well now you've made me feel dirty for defending DHard. I think I've said enough on that point.

If this is so true then why don’t the homosexuals use a different flag? Problem solved. Or is this just more of the closet mentality of homosexuals?

Hey just which group of people were hiding in closets? Such a noble perversion that they felt the need to hide.

No defending a perversion is foolish. So if you defend that perversion then you will have that homosexual logic. If you do not like that then do not claim to defend something then cry foul when you are called on it.
The hatred from the defenders of the perversion of homosexuality on this web site is proof of just what happens when a person defends what they believe.

I tell you what defenders of the perversion of homosexuality. Why don’t you find out when the next KKK get together is going to happen in your area. Then you all go to it and fly your homosexual flag. Let’s see just how well you will be welcomed.

You may think so. Nonetheless, your terminology of "homosexual logic" remains foolish.

No, if you defend homosexuality then you would be a libertarian or pro-homosexual rights or whatever. Your term is dumb.

What do you think about the KKK? Are you insinuating that small town America is like the KKK?

Like I said, the point is valid, but the delivery is comical. I mostly participate in "wedge issue" threads becasue they're the most rife with absurd rhetoric and fallacious arguments, which I enjoy picking apart.

A point well made is a point well made, however unlikely the source
