Quote"A college woman is seduced with illegal Rohypnol to go gay."

In an operational sense, that statement's not completely untrue.

Btw I like this from the serious discussion on the ordinance:
QuoteBut Dave Gehrls, speaking for an Omaha-based ministry, said the measure discriminates against people of faith "who cannot live their faith in their businesses."

Is discrimination really a central tenet to Christianity?
It is if your theology is shit.  You know, Protestantism.
What I speak out of my mouth is the truth.  It burns like fire.

I think it's a central tenet of most moral codes.

Except nowadays, it normally has like 10 more letters appended on to the end.  In Toronto, it's LGBTTIQQ2SA  :Canuck:

I like the Qs

Q for Queer - too odd and individual to fit in any of the other categories
Q for Questioning - so we'll not assume that individuals who want a space at the LGBT umbrella are gay :lol:
