Opebo economically- Not many are living off an expected inheiritance in Thailand, but probably 10% are socialist like him.


Opebo Socially- For the Democrat's sake, I hope very few share his bigoted views on religion and his perverse views on sex.

opebo isn't a socialist.

I was about to say I agree with views on sex, until I remembered some of the porn he's admitted to watching.

What, you mean Max Hardcore?

Of course they are. You are very much like opebo, despite being Christian. You agree with each other on basically every political issue, and both of you like to feel superior to the 'religious right' and go around labeling people bigots.

You are bigots.  From Dictionary.com:

"big·ot    ( P )  Pronunciation Key  (bgt)
n.
One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[French, from Old French.]
Word History: Bigots may have more in common with God than one might think. Legend has it that Rollo, the first duke of Normandy, refused to kiss the foot of the French king Charles III, uttering the phrase bi got, his borrowing of the assumed Old English equivalent of our expression by God. Although this story is almost surely apocryphal, it is true that bigot was used by the French as a term of abuse for the Normans, but not in a religious sense. Later, however, the word, or very possibly a homonym, was used abusively in French for the Beguines, members of a Roman Catholic lay sisterhood. From the 15th century on Old French bigot meant “an excessively devoted or hypocritical person.” Bigot is first recorded in English in 1598 with the sense “a superstitious hypocrite.”

Interesting, eh?  Sounds to me like the modern GOP.  We call you people bigots because you are bigots, as is clear by your intrusive behaviour on gay marriage, abortion, and nearly every other individual rights issue.

So I take it you don't like the GOP much. Would you say that you are strongly partial towards your politics and are intolerant of the religious right?

Not at all.  I'm only intolerant of intolerance. 

Of course on a personal level I find these religious people disgusting, but I wouldn't dream of interfering in their barbarous rites.  Very different from their interference - with the power of the theocratic State - in the wholesome personal and private activities of homosexuals, pregnant women, and other normal individuals.  I would only feed them to the lions in self defense.

There's only one problem with being intolerant of intolerance. You are intolerant, then, of yourself.

Nah, it doesn't work that way.

Then you are not intolerant of intolerance. You are intolerant of something more specific.

No, just intolerance.
