bonkers Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 [quote name='Jesus_lol' post='1757509' date='Jan 21 2009, 02:57 AM']well that was a total fail for you. i am a liberal minded, non catholic canadian, i would have voted for Obama given the chance. i think he will do some great things. not in every area, but i dont throw the baby out with the dishwater. the point is, i still somehow find it within me to be courteous and opinion respecting(i think, let me know if i am lying here) to everyone on here with a different opinion.[/quote] I am absolutely perplexed why you don't defend Obama then. Maybe it's cos you have friends here, and you want to maintain your reputation. Obama the anti-christ? That's not an opinion therefore it doesn't deserve respect.

Jesus_lol Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 well, you probably haven't noticed but i do defend that sort of thing. opinions i tend not to mess with too much, but that sort of thing i cant stand. i dont defend each and everyone though. mainly because i get tired of arguing with brick walls sometimes, been here for two years, i have had my share of unpopular opinions and voicing them, so sometimes i dont bother. for example, Dominicansoul and i tend to keep disagreeing on whether everyone of Obama's actions is tainted by his approval of abortion. she(?) can't find any good in anything Obama does, while i think that good and evil can coexist in people(frequently) and that acts are independant. i tend to raise the same points each time this comes up, and same for Dominicansoul. i still respect her opinion, and i am obviously not getting anywhere but that is fine. but why should i do that all the time? the Obama antichrist junk has been here a while and i have debated it before, mostly it is gone from PM. its pointless and boring for me sometimes. good enough for you?

How can we fully trust any action or judgment of someone who denies the most basic of rights to the most innocent of persons? Even going so far to deny living [b]breathing[/b] children basic medical treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prose Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I didn't read the thread, so sorry if this was already posted. I was watching come of the coverage yesterday and was surprised at how much it reminded me of WYD in Toronto. People went just as crazy over the Pope then. Although I don't believe most were participating in idol worship, I am sure there were some... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihil Obstat Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 [quote name='bonkers' post='1757507' date='Jan 21 2009, 01:54 AM']Hang on, lets work this out together. Abortion is legal. Slavery is illegal. You win the topsy award once again. [/quote] Are you joking me? This is your argument. That's ridiculous. Something is right *because* it's legal? Nice. Who wins the topsy award now? Does that mean slavery used to be perfectly fine, but as soon as they passed the law it became wrong? So they did it just because? How about S. African Apartheid? How about Fundementalist Islamic law in Middle Eastern countries? Is it ok to stone people for a myriad of crimes, since it's legal there? Somehow it's wrong here though. How strange. Come on, think about things before you say them. This is just verbal diarrhea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
