I've found that people who are the least capable of substantiating their position, and people who have just blindly assumed their position without questioning it, are the most likely to give out these lame excuses when questioned.

They will balk and cry and whine and demur, but in the end you'll never see them admit that before they made the claim they had NOTHING BUT THEIR BELIEF to substantiate their opinion.

I don't care if your facts tell me the sky is green and the grass is blue. Your facts are your facts. I have my own. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Take your facts and roll them in toilet paper and flush 'em. Everyone knows the gay lobby will lie and distort to "prove" their agenda. People I know don't really give a flying hoot. "Wah, wah, wah, we are victims". Bullshit.

Everyone's entitled to their own opinions, yes, but according to you, everyone's entitled to their own facts. That doesn't make any sense. You commonly redefine "fact". A fact is a indisputable peice of information, no matter what your belief. When you make your opinions, you commonly state that they are "facts" yet when asked to prove that they are facts, you fail to carry through.

Read the above post - since you and Katzitzky are obviously too brain dead to Google up "birth dearth".

You are wrong. Again.

facts are disputed every day. Just because someone tells me this is a fact, am I supposd to take them at their word? My you are naive. I hope you never go used car shopping by yourself.

Oh my, looks like someone's cognition abilities didn't get past infancy. Of coarse you don't just take their word, you ask for proof for their claims of it being a "fact". And that is exactly what we keep asking you guys to do when you claim things are facts, but you guys never substantiate your claims. If you learned how to read then you would know I already said this.

Hm... I have to say, I don't really know what to think about swinging. On one hand, I think that adults should be able to make informed decisions and do what they want with their bodies, and what have you.

On the other hand, I'm partial to monogamy. I suppose that's more personal opinion than anything else though, so I suppose that this falls under the harm principle.
