I took over my cousin profile a while ago.He gave up here after a while... and I seem to have followed suit, sadly. EDIT: Ignore me, cousin.

I recall seeing something about the Salvation Army threatening to close some of their soup kitchens in New York if they passed the law enabling Gay Marriage... No, I don't think the good that they do even remotely excuses what they have done. I don't think people would be so forgiving of a...

Neither would there be literally hundreds of different denominations of Christianity which exist because they can't agree on what The Bible actually says. Catholicism, Protestants, Baptist, Lutherans, Eastern Orthodox, Greek Orthodox, Anglican, Pentacostal, Latter Day Saints, Methodist...

Yes, the similarities are striking. You even have a vague relationship between the bailout and the treaty of Versailles... Sort of. With that said, Hitler and the Nazi's didn't have a political party which turned into a dictatorship and attempted genocide to precede them. These Nazi's do...

Law is in place to secure peoples rights, protect them from harm and exploitation. While there are some issues such as what constitutes harm, I'm struggling to see any good reason why a ban on same-sex marriage is in issue here. As far as I can see, there is only one consequence of allowing...

I don't like any of the Unova starters, so I'll be going with Snivy for no particular reason. I'll dump him for another starter I like more - perhaps Treecko - as soon as possible.

It depends on the school really. My school liked to project the image of having no real problems with bullying, and this was for the most part true... Because they rarely picked up on it. The problem doesn't exist if we can't see it, right? With that said, as soon as they start to pick up on...

This looks like fun! #1 - Leblanc, master of Normal Type pokemon. Following her recent admission to the Elite Four, Leblanc has developed an arrogant, self-centred attitude. Have fun smashing her team to oblivion! - Snorlax - Lickilicky - Porygon-Z - Braviary - Slaking #2 - Sven, master of...

I used to hate my name, but Matt has really grown on me recently. However, I'd still really consider using my middle name, Dylan. I find it suits me a lot more, and I use it where I can already! I've thought about changing my name to some variation of Nick though, or perhaps Spencer... Though...

In the case of Jehovah's Witnesses, or any religious callers really, I'll let them say what they want for a bit. When I've heard enough, I just calmly explain that I'm an atheist and that I'm bisexual. Depending on what they have said, I'll either politely tell them that they're wasting their...

I haven't posted in this thread for ages... or the community itself, to be honest... No matter: I swear, I didn't know this one was supposed to be pleasant faces! Yeah, I am The Doctor. That was a fun day :) My current twitter/facebook/blogger profile picture. I really like it for some...

Yes, a massive one on another guy in my year. Since pretty much the entire school found out I was bisexual, he jokingly started flirting with me. I returned the favour, but it gradually grew into a genuine attraction for me. Naturally, I can't really follow through with this crush, he didn't...

It doesn't offend me either, but it is quite damaging none the less. Fair enough, gay hasn't always meant homosexual... but now it does. It's not as if gay people are being called something else, the new meaning hasn't replaced homosexual, it's parallel to it. This isn't a comparison I enjoy...

First of all, I am pretty damn close to being gay. As you might expect, I support the legalisation of gay marriage and all that jazz. But the main thing I wanted to bring up is the use of the word "gay" to refer to anything bad. Not sure how universal it is, but it's pretty common in my area...

I'll use a repel if there's nothing in the grass for me to find and the patches are frequent enough to warrant using one, but I usually just don't bother and save repels for caves. I can usually one-shot most wild pokemon, so encounters only really become a nuisance in dungeons. I think the...
