Good. At some point people have to start getting sick of the endless pandering to a small portion of the population
I'm an atheist and even I'd refuse to wear an LGBT pride jersey at this point.
I say 'at this point', I think I reached that point about 5 years ago, if not longer.
I'd refuse just on general principle. He's there to represent Philadelphia, not the LGBT community.
why won't you wear the ribbon?
Seinfeld!
I don't get why it always has to be for religious reasons. Maybe I don't like compelled anything. Just once I want someone to say "Nah I'm an atheist I just don't like faggotry."
Because it's easier, legally.
Personally, I hate the idea that you need an excuse, and people always trot out their religious beliefs. I have nothing against those beliefs, to be clear, but my issue is with the compelled speech itself.
I can refuse to participate in compelled speech for whatever reason I damn well choose. I don't need to be Christian, or Muslim, or whatever, to not want to be forced to support something I, for whatever reason, disagree with.
Then say, "My reasons are my own."
Be prepared to take them to the mat, though.
You have pretty consistently correct views on spiritual warfare. Can I ask why you consider yourself atheist?
If you want to get technical, I'm agnostic because I have to concede that I cannot know with absolute certainty that there's no god, or almost certainly no supreme being described with any genuine knowledge or accuracy in any known religious text. I say 'atheist' in casual conversation because when people hear ;agnostic' they think you're on the fence and 'just don't know', when the reality is I'm 99.9% certain that we as humans have had no meaningful contact with anything from a higher plane of existence, and that no ghosts or spooks or spirits - in the literal sense at least - walk among us.
If you think about it even a little bit it makes no sense. You're proud of being a sodomite, fine, but why do I have to be proud of it? Like forcing everyone to put a Menorah in their house or something.
Don't give them ideas
its not good enough to be "tolerant" you gotta let them fuck you in the ass or force your face into their groin wound. gotta tell them how beautiful they look and how they make you horny. gotta discard your own beliefs and subscribe to their beliefs.
Thou shalt have no gods before me.
All I can think about is that whole campaign to get people to purchase RATM's "Killing in the Name" single instead of some bullshit from the The X Factor despite both songs being distributed by Sony. Like, wow, way to stick it to Corporation by giving money to Corporation.
Vote with your wallet. It counts more than your vote in any fucking election.
Sadly, it's the team and the league who get most of the money from this arrangement.
Bateman is busy rubbing shekels on his dick.
OY FUCKING VEY
This is the kind of man you fight for. This is the kind of integrity you foster.
This ... is ... a ... real ... man.
I wish his answer would have just been because he doesn't want to and leave it at that. These faggot sports writers are going to say whatever they want anyway
why are they doing gay shit outside of june?
