Anderson Cooper lets ignorant inbred religious homophobe show the world just how ignorant, inbred and homophobic she is

She says that no one is going to do that to homosexuals, but the only reason they don't is that the rest of the country won't let them.

Well said. I came here to complain about #8, there is no "duty" to spread non-religion. That is just stupid.

I think he knows what they mean, but is purposefully deceitful. Those words scare his base, and so he uses them to push his agenda.

Why stay with the church if that is how they feel?

Before dealing with the specifics, let’s make a general observation. It’s impossible to make the world better in some way without making the world worse in other ways. That principle is illustrated by science fiction scenarios in which a time-traveler tries to make the world a better place by changing the past. But every time he makes one thing better, he makes another thing worse. Every improvement carries a collateral downside. He can never strike a perfect balance, in which everything is better and nothing is worse.

Everyone knows that something published in a science fiction novel is irrefutable fact. I mean, it has "Science" right there in the name!

"Well, I do think that's a problem. Georgetown is the oldest Catholic university in the country. Part of Catholic identity is to be in union with the bishops," Dolan said.

Part of the catholic identity is to shut up and do what we say.

Thanks, as an American I get sick of all the bashing but it is difficult to argue against it without people claiming I am blindly patriotic or just making excuses.

You can not judge a man's actions without judging the man. To tell someone what they do is wrong is to tell them they are wrong, and to judge them. You may forgive them afterwards, and to do so would be christlike, but to hold to your hate for what they do is to hold to your hate for them. Allow each to believe and do as they please, and you will be following the word of god: turn the other cheek, if they take your coat give them your shirt, offer only love and never condemnation.

Accept the one whose faith is weak, without quarreling over disputable matters. 2 One person’s faith allows them to eat anything, but another, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables. 3 The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them. 4 Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To their own master, servants stand or fall. And they will stand, for the Lord is able to make them stand. -Romans 14: 1-4

Edit: Also, do you have a response to my other two questions, those two are something I am very interested in. They are assertions I have not heard before. Also, whoever down-voted them: don't do that. They came here for a discussion, and was very civil about it. Disagreeing is not a good reason to down-vote.

Number 4 - Matthew 7: 1-5

“Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.

It is not your place to judge his sin, or to hate it. Jesus commands love always, and not to judge. To hate their action is to judge them, you must forgive, and you have not truly forgiven if you still harbor hate for their actions.

Number 2: It is that easy to ignore god's plan? I can just choose to subvert the will of the all mighty? And if it is that easy than his plan has no hope of coming to fruition.

Number 1: Since when does Satan rule on Earth, and how does that jive with god's plan? Didn't he cast Satan into hell for his disobedience? Can you back that claim with scripture, because I have not heard that before.

I hated how he would ask her a question and then just talk over her while she is trying to answer. Then accuse her of changing the subject.

(Regarding the racism as they walk away) "Haven't we dispelled that rumor by now?"

No, you have just ignored it and then pretended like it was a non-issue. Seriously though, if the guy can't run a news letter without letting it publish racist shit how can we trust him to run a whole country?

I think that it is pretty funny that a character for a commercial who is essentially perfect has become a meme that is (more often than not) somehow socially awkward or oblivious. Basically the opposite of the original purpose.

Especially with the excuse "I park on the street cause my driveway is always full!" Oh, I am so sorry you own too many cars. And from the picture it doesn't look like your neighbor has a driveway, so every time you park there they have to park further away from their house.

Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O’Connor said supporters of secular values do not tolerate dissent

And of course we have all seen how tolerant the church is of dissent...

I actually questioned a religious friend about why god would save Lot when he was clearly willing to let his daughters be raped by the whole town. My question was how is that a good man? His response was that the bible says that Lot was a righteous man. While I consider righteous to mean good, when I looked it up websters says it is "acting in accord with divine or moral law: free from guilt or sin." While I think it is clear that Lot did not follow moral law, he definitely followed divine law, and was judged to be free from sin. My friend knows that the OT is messed up, and realizes that a lot of the bible doesn't make sense, but tries to do right and believes in god. I hadn't really wanted to debate him about whether he should believe or not, or if god is truly good so the conversation ended there. Thought he had a good point about the Lot thing.

TL;DR Lot did right by god, but god's rules are pretty fucked up.

Only cause Sam was all awesome and didn't need any lessons. Frodo learned a lot about though, mostly about whining and how to dramatically succumb to evil in the final moments. And in the end isn't that the most important thing?

Quit paying for his shit, don't pay his credit card, and start charging him rent. Also, no reason not to hire him. It's not what you know but who you know. Just be sure that someone else at the company is his boss so he doesn't think he can slack off with no consequences.

I'm with you Wonderful on this issue. It is so easy to get to other sub-reddits, so rather than change the rules of one that is big and popular just start your own. If you don't like the content it is your responsibility to avoid the content.
