Jimmy Jones- Thank you for nicely illustrating my point, deliberately misconstruing what I wrote and making no attempt to say how the phrases I quoted have anything to do with same-sex marriage.

The gay issue demonstrates clearly that humans are, generally speaking, amoral and somewhat depraved and their lust tends to pull them in many directions.

The porn industry illustrates my point clearly and any man or woman can see videos of men and women happily fornicating with all manner of objects and other life forms of various sexes and species.

I've even seen a woman licking a donkey's didgeridoo, surely an obscenity but not in the eyes of some people.

Creating a permissive, anything goes society was what undid the Roman Empire.

We can't be too far behind!

Yowza! David G. I think you need to speak for yourself. You seem to be on the forefront of the permissive society. Probably not the right person to be pointing the finger at others.

When it comes to Newspeak. Actually, I'm offended by the Word "Gay" being hijacked by poofters. "Poofter" is a perfectly good word, nothing wrong with it. It says exactly what it means, Homosexual, & it has been used for hundreds of years with impunity.

Gay, however in it's true meaning, means, light heartedly happy. Not a definition I'd give to a homosexual. They are all so miserable, depressed & full of mental hang ups over all sorts of nothings.

Saying "a gay person" is a bit like saying "military intelligence." It's sort of a contradiction in terms.

Bugger it. Let 'em get married, but no kids (ever). They'll breed 'emselves out sooner or later.

Oh no. Poe's Law strikes again.

Cheers,

Tony

I have been sending things to Pollies for years. A proposal by Mr Winsor is almost the same as I sent to him some time back.

From SMH: Mr Windsor said the message he got from Australians was to "let us have our say and get it away from you idiots [politicians]"
