Originally Posted By mele I see, religious beliefs can't be mocked but it's okay to mock gays. Alrighty. And let there be no mistake, there is plenty of mocking of homosexuals in that thread. And more than just words are being used...people are actually against homosexuals but no one has proposed any laws against Mormons. But I guess that's okay. Just don't mock someone's beliefs, no matter how disgusting they are.

I'll accept that in your view there was some mocking going each way. Still seemed kind of like a gang-bang to me.

It's hard not to get angry when you hear someone say that they don't want gay marriage to be legal because then their children will have to learn about other families, it's hard not to get upset.

Originally Posted By mele <<Quickest way to stop it is to STOP POSTING IN IT.>> Thanks for spelling that out. We only have 2 nice Mormon girls who occasionally hit the neighborhood. They're not a bother at all. The damn magazine salespeople, on the other hand, are irritating as hell. I have a big, loud dog who refuses to stop barking. She barks her head off for 10 minutes if one of us accidentally sets the timer on the clothes dryer. So I'm irritated when anyone knocks on my door, even if I don't mind what they're selling.
Originally Posted By mele Ha! You know, I don't really like brass or gold door knockers, either. I'm more of a silver or chrome person. Copper is nice, too.

Originally Posted By jdub That's to do w/your dog, I assume--eek! I love a doorbell--just basics, no so-called "music"--with a volume knob. Down, down, down... and of course, since I have a bell, all knocking shall be ignored. If a person's such an idiot they don't know what the button's for, I certainly can't be bothered to get up off my keyster to actually interact with him, lords forbid.
