Is there anything new that is controversial and should be put in here?

Feels like we've almost milked every subject.

I have to agree wiith Tall Hat on this one. When people find out about me being Catholic I immediately get jumped on. I have never tried to force my religion on anyone. I find it rather ironic then that they are the ones who rush at me and try to criticize all the choice I make.

Why are you trying to stop controversial discussion in the thread made specifically for it.

and it terrifies me that there will come an end

I doubt it to sometimes. That's why it is called faith lol.
Astronomy actually has contributed a lot to my faith.

I never even think about forcing my beliefs on another unless they want to know what I believe.
Best part when they generalize you to being part of a group of, like every other major group that holds a similar opinion or belief, a few crazy extremists that force their opinions down other's throats.
Then they try convincing your belief is wrong and do the same thing they accuse you of doing.

Best day ever.

I know, I know. It's just that I live directly in the Bible Belt and I've heard this argument/discussion so many times that I'm about ready to rip my ears off. You can't win an argument with someone hellbent on gays not being pop flyin'. I've tried.

BUT IF THATS THE CASE WHAT AM I DOING HERE

It happens to me all the time. The best part is that in their minds they think you see them all as heathens and sinners.

If anyone remembers MeatloafofDarkness, he's engaged to his fiance. Who is a man.

One of my friends is getting an Abortion tomorrow.

I had another friend who has had one before.

Not much to say. I'm really against it and I feel like it's taking the choice to live from another being. I could care less how "underdeveloped" the baby is. It's still a baby that's turning into another being.

But I can't force someone not to do it so I wouldn't try. Their life, as much as I am against it.

So stop reading the thread if you don't like this discussion.

This thread is here specifically to talk about things people might not like. That's why we have it. If you don't like it, you have no right to immediately declare a cease on it, because that contradicts the whole purpose of the thread. It's here to let us talk things out that can incite flame wars. If you don't like what's being talked about, just stop looking at the thread.

I wasn't even being serious when I said to stop the discussion. Even if I did mean it, I know it wouldn't stop, but I never meant for it to in the first place. Partial waste of a post on my part then, I suppose. I know when I've fucked up.

This thread is meant for Serious discussion. Dark has made it clear we should leave the joking aside to make clear and mature posts.

So I think that's why people might have taken your post seriously.

I also misread your post, and made sure I didn't misread it by reading it again and misread it a second time so

My bad also
