Russia is taking another step in the right direction of the morality that the rest of Europe is so lacking in. Thanks to their lawmakers, children there could be able to escape from a life of being the spawn of sinners. Your thoughts on this NSG.
I'm starting to really like Russia

So you obviously don't care about the welfare of children, then?

The adoption system is not a kind environment in the best of countries, let alone in a country that is as much of a bureaucratic and authoritarian hellhole as Putin's Russia is becoming. The fact that people want children to be forcibly removed from loving homes just because the parents are of the same sex is quite frankly sickening.

That's horrible justification.

Is it now? Can you think of a good reason not to? It's very likely none of these orphans have good lives. Russia already has conscription and whatnot, and it's not conscription until they are proper age. Until then, it is just preparation, and an escape from crime and dirty cities and/or orphanages.

The bible doesn't say gay parents will turn their children gay...

You would be surprised just how God damn many people use the Bible argument.

They still have a right to choose a life outside of dying for Russia.

Exactly. Russia has conscription already. You're forcing children to be in the military. But this is off topic.

If you cannot attack someone's argument without resorting to outright flaming, then don't post. *** Rushiopia, warned for flaming. *** I suggest you review the rules and reconsider your 'debate' tactics.

How? Since when do militaries have "You will die" in the description for service?

well quite a few people use it to say being gay is a sin, which means apparently the Anglican communion must be apostate or something seeing a curate(assistant priest) at my church is gay and married.

I didn't say all Christians do; I'm a Christian myself, and Lutheranism ain't exactly very homophobic.

So, aside from the warning I already gave to Rush, not nearly as bad as I feared it was gonna be:
Ladria wrote:Their escape will be death, you idiot; you, the Russian Orthodox Church, and Putin and his cronies are dirty bastards,

Attack the argument, not the person making it. Take an unofficial warning for flaming.

Other than the red, this statement is 100% correct.

Flaming by proxy is still flaming. *** Utceforp, warned for flaming ***

The image macro spam and non-contributing posts that amount to "tag!" are not appreciated. If you don't plan to participate, don't post.

And while thread OP New Molsona escapes without another trolling flavor warning, I think we can stick a fork in this thread- started out with the "ew teh gay is icky/not it's not!" threadjack built into the OP and promptly derailed all over the place.
