  • LOL — greenman, Fri Aug 3 4:18pm
    That was actually funny, for once, although I'm not sure it was intentional...:)

  different owners. Why punish the lot? The many thousand employees, soft drink companies that supplies the fiz, all sorts of other venders, drivers, accountants, builders renovators, various other... more
• • Yes, why IS Cathy doing that? — greenman, Sat Aug 4 6:16pm
    Why politicize your business, announce your bigotry publicly, spend millions on radical Right and Christian anti-gay causes, and then be amazed that a chunk of the public doesn't want to come to your ... more

  • • Re: There are none in my area, maybe I should look into opening — et, Sat Aug 4 9:32am
      Tickles me the outbreak of long waiting lines. I'd be yer first customer, as long as it didn't cost me a hundred bucks getting there. :)
  • Customer's right. — Christopher Blackwell , Fri Aug 3 4:53pm
    Et, No person has to buy anyone's product and they have a right not to buy for whatever reason they want. Though a person has the right to do most anything not illegal, that doesn't mean that the law ... more

      Sales will increase if it picks up more steam.. Gay marriage would be no problem if the majority were for it. Atheist etc need to change angles, there are loads of gay Christians, and most keep apart ... more
    • • Ever hear of the FLDS?? — Truthteller, Sat Aug 4 11:50am
        THEY have rampant sex with underage girls in the name of their "religion." When sex is performed in a Wiccan ritual, it is between the senior priest and priestess (BOTH of whom are consenting adults) ... more
      • • Hmm what a dirty lot and the women are in on it as well. — Διός, Sat Aug 4 6:40pm

        Gay marriage would be no problem if the majority were for it. Just like women's suffrage? It would be no problem if the majority were for it? What about abolition? Just round up a majority and we're... more
      • • Howdy — et, Fri Aug 3 11:28pm
          Suffrage? And men's suffrage, women can be meaner than a blind polecat. Abolition? See Union the nation 1862.. And lastly? No argument there, I think? :}
      • Now where do you get that idea. — Christopher Blackwell , Fri Aug 3 9:23pm
        et, I have been to a good number of Pagan events,and I have never seen sex at any ceremony, not even back in the old days when ceremonies were not open to non Pagans.
      • • I've never seen it either... — Truthteller, Sat Aug 4 11:52am
          nor been moved to hold it within ritual. AFTER, however... ;)
    • It seems you country lives very much in the past. — Διός, Fri Aug 3 5:33pm

• • Wow, really? — greenman, Sat Aug 4 6:20pm
    Nice strawman, since no one's really said they "don't have the right." But I guess you have to go with the talking points, don't'cha?
• Great points — Truthteller, Fri Aug 3 1:12pm
  I think that if every one of their "supporters" could read this, it might make a bit of a difference. At least, I LIKE to think so.
