> BobDr. Bob,
I can't believe that you are finding fault with that statement I made. I was trying very hard to be civil when writing this post. That one sentence of mine isn't attacking anyone's views. IMHO it's just expressing a sentiment that BOTH sides of the political spectrum would probably agree with. What other president has caused this much polarization?I tried very hard not to slam anyone for their beliefs. I'm in shock - that's all I can say here.

>> Dr. Bob,
Kara's statement was no different than saying The subject of abortion divided a town.
I think you jumped on devisive as a verb, and therefore assumed it was a criticism.

I think it was Dinah that said this site could be very difficult.
How can we stay within certain boundaries and how can Dr. Bob make sure we do?There have been many juicy topics on this site but I knew I couldn't join in because I am so uncertain of the rules and I have so many feelings, thoughts, beliefs and ideas.
I find myself in a self imposed verbal straight jacket.
Oh well.....

And it's safe for sure to talk about your own beliefs. It's when talking about others that the verbal gymnastics get involved.

I have never understood why gay people didn't have the same rights as other people?
I am into fairness and equality of rights.
I have choosen not to marry my partner (male) but I would feel really unhappy if I didn't have a choice.
My beliefs are to celebrate all of our lovely diversity.This seems to be the last place where we need to grow.
IMHO

> you could marry me. I am a lesbian trapped in a man's body. Would that be moral? :)
Telling jokes that bad, and that mouldy I'm surprised you're not single : ) actually the joke itself is terrible enough as to be considered immoral Bobby, that's what I think you should concern yourself with, actually.
Can you tell I'm teasing you by my type?
I hope so.And you know, I've lost your e-mail addy and have something I'd like to send you that I can't send through babble mail (no it's not illicit it's got a picture on it) could you send me an e-mail? Or babble mail me your addy.
Thanks Bobby.

Hi Jai,
I'm glad you posted!
>I have choosen not to marry my partner (male) but I would feel really unhappy if I didn't have a choice.
Are you a woman ...or are you a man living in a country where gay marriage is legal?
Regards,
Ed.

Beautifully put and perfectly within the guidelines!
I agree with you on all points. What can be wrong with more love, fairness and equality?
I was at one time a 'conservative' when it meant less government - spending *and* intrusion into people's rights. I think now I would most closely be called a libertarian.

My 2cents...
I think a big reason Bush is dispised outside the US is that his religion is very much integral to his politics. I think the blurring of personal religious beliefs and politics is very worrying for many (myself included).
Although the obvious reason he's disliked is that he comes across as one of the most stupid people on the planet...:D

Please respect the views of others and be sensitive to their feelings. I've asked you to be civil before, so now I'm going to block you from posting for a week.
If you or others have questions about this or about posting policies in general, or are interested in alternative ways of expressing yourself, please see the FAQ:
http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/faq.html#civil
Follow-ups regarding these issues should be redirected to Psycho-Babble Administration. They, as well as replies to the above post, should of course themselves be civil.
Thanks,
Bob

How dare you use doggin and miss Slinky in the same sentence! :) However, i have always professed my admiration for the Dreamer. And "what it" is open ended. It is my belief that Slinky was not sent here for mere mortals such as myself. :) Thanks for the hilarious e-mail!
