Do you wish to keep dancing?You obviously have no idea with whom you are conversing with my dear little pompous tart. My name is Dalton McGunity Burns III and I come from a long lineage of superior intellect. I am an attorney in Canada and have little time for your slightly better than average wit as I have much more impotant matters to attend to. Good day. I don't much care who you are, sir. your posts on this thread have smacked of elitism, arrogance and bigotry. there's a lot to be said for class, and recognizing that you are not as important as your ego leads you to believe. good day.

If you wrote more than one post on this thread, I didn't see them. Last night, when I saw this post, I saw down at the bottom the "jump to page" field, and in that little white box was the number "1". I thought that meant there was only one page of posts, so that's all I read. Unfortunately, the number of pages isn't prominently displayed, so I made that mistake.
It just seemed to me from your initial post that you wanted to keep marriage and civil unions separated. I've never heard the argument to make all "marriages" civil unions, assuming that's what you meant. Thus it threw me off.

I'll let your reply stand as an example of what I deem to be an unnecessary and divisive commentary regarding a poster, rather than useful debate of an idea............... Your reply of course not being part of the originating offense

Who cares abut gay marriage?? Not me. Marriage is on the rocks with straights, and allowing gays a shot at it is not going to change that. What do they say about keeping your own sidewalk clean??
Hey-- I am seeing mods, hearing whining, not sure this is the place for me. Whatever.

I don't know but it would be strange for me to watch Adam and Steve get married in the Chapel at Camp Pendleton with the full military ceremony and traditions..but if Adam and Steve are in the Navy and not in the Marines then I think it will be OK ..I guess?? As we all know the Navy is more politically correct than Marines are or hope to be..??

Oh contrare Ms. Shirina self righteous queen. It does not matter in the least. For all you or anyone else knows I could be a teenager in my basement masturbating at your alluring name and post adolescent wit. However the reality is, in your mind, you break down peoples synopsis of a situation and sprinkle semi believable refutes with a summation that you have "won" the entire argument. Any individual with an IQ of 120 or less could easily contort to your suggestive lead. You fail to realize the individuals engaged are mostly 120+. I will not continue but if you ask me directly I will tell you what mine is.

Good evening Mr. RDT sir. I am sorry this has spun out of control but I really do need to address the problem directly and with maximum force. It is the only way to deal with an individual as such.

Mr. Dalton McGuinty Burns, III, Esq.: Have you had the opportunity to revisit the Economic Collapse thread? Your client, fiscan, made several contributions and there are only 486 posts left to migrate.
With inevitable gay marriage love,

Ok this is NOT my thread I am not into Adam and Steve or Eve and Elvira getting married at Camp Pendleton...the heavens may open and a hurricane will hit the base and cause severe damage...and when Adam, and Steve or Eve and Elvira look to the heavens and ask God why? Why us on our weddings? An angry voice from the heavens will say " I made Adam and Eve and NOT Adam and Steve or Eve and Elvira, so don't push it".......

Just had a thought after reading this post.
"The term "marriage" has traditionally been the union between a man and a woman."
That is true, but where does it say traditions can't be changed due to time , mores, change in attitude , so many reasons. I think that is what is happening today.
While there are still traditionalist who might not see it that way, over time , not always on all subjects, but on many subjects, time and acceptence of the new do change how we look at things.
It wasn't that long ago , when I purchased my first home, my wife at the times, who was working as a teacher, her salary was not considered by the bank when we applied for a loan. their reasoning, basically she was not really considered a reguler employee, a bread winner so to speak, they figured, correctly actually, that she would become pregnant and stop working. That happened but today, that would not be a detriment, as it would also be reasoned that after a short time period, the child would go to child care and she would be back in the work force, which for most couples are the way it works out, So in time the traditional does change.
For those Gay people who wish a union with another, the love and commitment are the same and they don't want to settle for a legal union, it is not enough. They want the legal title of 'Married " to be applied to their union, their feelings are as strong for each other and to settle for anything less is not acceptable and for the life of me I can't see why that shouldn't happen for those who wish that, with all the rights and privalags that that title confers on a couple, whether in assetts, insurence, whatever . Whether it is a civil ceremony as so many heterosexual customers opt for, {my daughter was married by a cousin who got her Justice of peace title just to be able to perform the ceremony, their wish, , their own vows, and another cousin, in Maine last year same thing or if they are married by a clergyman or woman of their choice in the faith they are comfortable in.

That's right, you could be. And I might be the Queen of Sheba. Quite frankly, it doesn't matter, and you are hardly impressive. In fact, your arrogance is so thick, it's starting to sound like a self parody.
And exactly what have you done to refute anything I've said? So far, all I've seen from you are ad hominem attacks and lots of self-aggrandizing statements - as if I'm supposed to grovel at your supposed "superior intellect." For someone who claims to be so smart, you are certainly naive. You've already managed to irritate at least two posters and managed to get one post deleted. You're batting a thousand.
When confronted with this kind of stupidity, sometimes all I can do is shake my head and walk away.

I hear ya krickitt. My ex said she didn't believe in divorce...I guess I changed that. I'm hoping the mods are just to keep personal attacks off the boards. This place shouldn't become as restricted as the old boards.

The Mods here with the exception of Diverdown 34 who is older than dirt have not taken their classes at Charm School or Anger Management yet so pls be patient with the Newbies... Although I understand TraelinO is so diligent he has been studying all the material re: Charm School & Anger Management and asked me a ton of questions about those two subjects since I completed both courses a few years ago at the top of the class...

Don't go too far Ms. Shirina. There is more. I don't need to refute anything you say. I stand on solid ground. You are the one trying to change tradition, the way it has been for thousands of years, probably to fill some other void in your life. I have no voids to fill and do not need to jump on a politically correct bandwagon of any sort. So again, why can't you come up with another term?

You do realize if we want to go by tradition then we definitely aren't going with one man and one woman, nice try though.

Because you can't. If you could, you would have. Instead, as I've said, you resorted to personal attacks stemming from a post that was not even directed toward you. If you can refute me, then do so. If not, then I would suggest staying quiet is a more appealing option than trying to impress me with your IQ, family lineage, or cowing me with meaningless insults.
You stand on a logical fallacy, which I have repeatedly pointed out. When you simply repeat the fallacy, you have reduced yourself to using one fallacy to defend another. It's really becoming quite tedious and redundant.
Did you or did you not say that you are an attorney in Canada? If you do happen to be an attorney, I would remind you that being an attorney and being a psychiatrist are two different professions. Therefore, you are neither qualified or credentialed appropriately to make a whimsical "diagnosis" regarding voids in my life or lack thereof. Stick to what you know.
In case you haven't quite grasped this yet, you are not my role model, mentor, or hero. What you do or don't do, and the reasons for them, are inconsequential to me. If I choose to jump on a bandwagon, I will do so, and your own personal decisions neither encourage or dissuade me from making that choice.
I've already answered this question in a previous post. Perhaps if you paid more attention to them instead of taxing your brain for some lame insults, I wouldn't have to repeat myself. In fact, I'm not going to. Instead, suffice it to say, having two terms for the same thing breeds inequality and elitism - but you are elitist, which is why you probably fail epically to understand why this is an issue.
So I ask again, why should they have to come up with another term?
