Could Australia’s gay marriage debate be the next revolt against the establishment? : Comments

By Lyle Shelton, published 21/11/2016

Blowing up the plebiscite was never about protecting vulnerable gays from Christian hate merchants, it was about making sure the issue did not find its way into the hands of ordinary people who might not do as they are told.

Hi phanto, the question you pose there is perhaps the most pertinent one posed thus far in the 'debate'. I shall answer it tomorrow as I'm currently doing more than actually following OLO closely. Yes, believe it or not I do have a life :)

Cheers phanto and shall be back to you tomorrow!

Well if there is no discussion why is it bothering you so much that you feel the need to make any kind of comment at all? Don't you have better things to do?

Living in hopes that an actual,relevant, factual, reasoned discussion might eventuate. No sign I'm afraid. Just assertions and counter-assertions though I have to admit AJP makes strenuous efforts to actually discuss issues in the context of the rules governing logical reasoning. Wasted though. Nothing remains but endless cyclic repetition.

Oh, and I should have mentioned, while, the ad hominem keyboard warriors have been busily ducking one another's points about what marriage is supposed to mean, tha ball has passed straight through to stumps: Newer mind about gender, our tax money is being funnelled through Centrelink to supporting the multiple wives of polygamous Moslems.

"Living in hopes that an actual,relevant, factual, reasoned discussion might eventuate."

So what does a comment like -

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

contribute to that discussion?

If there is nothing to be achieved here then why are you here? Are you trying to convince yourself or the rest of us that it is all a waste of time? Your behaviour certainly does not match your rhetoric.
