Fishing for Liberal Debate (in the Yahoo comment section)

I wrote the following to stir the pot. The news story was about gay marriage on some military base. Anyways, while I don't hate gay people (or have much of an opinion about them), I don't like the definition (perception) of marriage changing in my society. Now that liberals have gotten their foot in the door, over time, people will lose touch with the real purpose behind marriage—the union of man and woman for the purpose of creating offspring in a nurturing environment. With all liberals have fought for over the last 50-60 years, we have seen the family get decimated (approximately 50% divorce rate). Don't get me wrong, I don't hate liberals (or anyone), but I believe they are seriously misguided on many issues. Anyways, enough of my rambling, here is the post:

ME: "Liberal Strategy for getting their way: Push it in society's face until the people get used to it; it's brainwashing. Realize, morality is a perception; it's merely based on opinion (thus cannot be factual). Liberalism is a secular religion with its own god ([changing tradition]al social structures, customs, values, etc.), and they have faith that what they are fighting for is "progressive".If liberals got there way on every issue, they would still want something else to change. Essentially they look for what societal behavior is traditionally taboo and then fight for it, normalize, then move on. This is why liberals gravitate towards things like lewdness, vulgarity, self-destruction, and laziness (work ethic is traditionally valued). In other words, they fight for those who are considered social misfits. Liberals disobey authority like a brat kid disobeys their parent—just for the sake of doing it. This post will not get positive feedback. Sadly, what is true and good is a pain-inducing barrier for some (liberals) to overcome."

Anonymous liberal 1: "Jeremy, do you own a slave? Why not? At one time (in nearly every society) it was perfectly acceptable". 

 My response to Anonymous liberal: "Which had nothing to do with liberals (emancipation of the slaves). Anyone that takes a strict reading of the constitution would realize the issue regarding the rights of blacks. It had nothing to do with the moral degeneration that is occurring today. Apples and oranges (in case you haven't noticed, homosexual marriage is not slavery). If a gay person wants to get married, they should find an opposite sex partner or settle with a civil union. Here's a scenerio that will put my argument into context...
Imagine that the vast majority of society enjoys using Mayo on their sandwiches. However, about 3% of the population likes to use peanut butter. Those that love peanut butter create a bunch of activist groups to fight for the right to call peanut butter "Mayo". The peanut butter activists are successful and now peanut butter is referred to as "Mayo". The issue now is that Mayo refers to ANY sandwich spread and thus the word has lost its original meaning. Simple, right?"

Anonymous liberal 2: "No the conservatives strategy is obviously to deny they are gay until they get caught... happens all the time. True conservatives should applaud gay marriage as a conservative belief... "

My response: "Your warped brain needs to believe that. Reality: There is nothing conservative about gay marriage."

Anonymous liberal 1: "Again, your world view is incredibly limited. You're hard to speak with because I am an educated elitist. 
Everything you said is simple, but that doesn't make it right. You can't put your POV into any sort of context besides ignorance and intolerance." 

My response to Anonymous liberal 1: "Educated elitist? You seem more like a pseudo-intellectual, ego-maniac to me. You don't know my educational background. I know liberals let their imaginations get a hold of them. Sure, it probably feels good to daydream about how "elite" and "open-minded" you are; I'm sure you dream about your liberal superpowers regularly. Now, getting back to reality; while I'm not going to brag about the degrees I have, I will let you know that I have a decent background in Sociology and Psychology (one more-so than the other...I'll let you guess which). So when it comes to this subject matter (social issues and human psychology), it's very unlikely that you are significantly more knowledgeable than me. 

As for you: Be aware of the "perceptions" that you take for granted that are mere products of the imagination (liberals tend to be delusional). Realize that you are not a mind-reader, you'll be happier (and less deluded) in life. Did I forget to mention that your delusions of grandeur can get better if you step back down to earth? :) Yep, I believe so...

By the way, tolerance is not acceptance. I don't need to accept your worldview, but I admit that I am forced to tolerate the fact that people like you (liberals) roam the surface of this planet."

Anonymous liberal 3: "Jesus was a Liberal."

My response to Anonymous liberal 3: That's nonsense. Jesus didn't talk favorably about tax collectors, was against premarital sex (and even lusting "in the heart"), divorce, murder (he would not have supported abortion), supported the Old Testament (which had very strict laws), and warned of hell for sinners. If Jesus could come to earth today, I'm sure he would see liberal behavior as an abomination. 

I'll update if people leave comments about my comment. I'm fishing for a debate, let's hope I get some bites :)  Feel free to debate and/or just plain discuss the liberal vs. conservative cultural conflict in the comment section here.

*Update* Caught me some good, dopey liberals. It's like shooting fish in a barrel. 

British Olympic Cheerleader Controversy

The Olympics in Britain apparently have a cheerleading squad. The controversy stems from a public voting on the group of cheerleaders they wanted. The public chose The Crystals—made famous by their routine of the infamous song "Call Me Maybe"—a highly sexualized group. The committee in Britain, who had the final say, instead went with the London Wild Cat cheerleaders (a less provocative group).

I left a comment on the orginal story (found on Yahoo Sports). Here it is:

Roger: "Good for the British committee; they at least have dignity. If this was in the U.S. they probably would have had strippers and abortion tents. I know I'm being factious, but public events and the media need to stop catering to the perverts—the Olympics is not about trying to make people horny—there's plenty of internet space for such degenerates already."

I mostly got positive feedback so far. If some moron tries to debate me I'll update this post accordingly. Nastiness is too representative on the internet; the moral need to speak up. In regards to my abortion comment, I believe abortion is immoral in more ways than one. I'm not saying that those who get abortions are all perverts, but certainly many lack the values that I hold (e.g. family, human life, sexual morals).

Guy calls all Catholics "pedophiles": My response (Yahoo comments)

Bubbles: "Creepy Catholic pedophiles think they are on the moral high ground? Really!"

Me: "It's prejudice (and bigoted) to label all Catholics as 'pedophiles'. A few misfits does not describe the church as a whole."

Bubbles: "@ Jeremy.. Your backward thinking on contraception may be accepted in third world countries where the population is ignorant and superstitious but it just doesn't work in this country."

Me: "I never provided an opinion on contraceptives. In case you didn't notice, my comment was about YOU claiming that all Catholics were pedophiles (which was implied given the context). 


Here's my take on the issue: If someone wants to use contraceptives, then that's there business; that said, its inclusion in healthcare coverage should not be government mandated. The federal government was not given that power in the constitution (you may wanna give it a read); which was very specific about the role of government and its powers. The constitution was meant to prevent the government from growing and controlling as much as it desired. 


You may think conservatives have backwards thinking, but I can assure you that they perceive people like you in the same way. You can think whatever you want; opinions are not factual--so those that hold them are merely perceiving reality (including people's behavior) differently--so there is no "right" or "wrong". Morality falls into the realm of opinion (based on different valuations). Long story short: Your morality is neither right or wrong, just an opinion. 


I assume you are your own moral authority; that would explain a lot."

I'll provide updates if he comments further.

I do this (discuss my internet "comments") to correct people's thinking. I don't know about you, but I'm sick of all the unchecked lewdness, bigotry, and ignorance on the internet. Stupid people need guidance.
