"I don't hate gay people"

No Monte you just want to deny them literally more than 1000 rights afforded to straight people

he just tows the reprehensible LDS party line

TuralyonW3 12-02-2012 11:04 AM

So basically, quit giving Monte shit about SP and spelling/grammar, and give some constructive criticism about the real problem in his life...his shitting on civil rights

You're not being very tolerant about this.

Slurpee 12-02-2012 11:18 AM

Making fun of Monte was once all in good fun, because it was more his weird projects that were the object of derision. Then, like anything, a few people took it way too far. In real life, we would all walk away from those people and carry on. But this is the internet, so those few people are still leading the bullying, years later.

He is the one who made an idiotic blog when he can't even spell.

Sorry there is nothing innocent about any of this. Monte knew exactly the reaction he would get and he loves it. The guy loves the attention. Everything he has ever done on here has been to get attention. Why else would he make those idiotic USA videos, post an insanely long, detailed and illustrated post about his princess date?

The list is endless. He knows he is going to get nothing but grief yet he stirs up the pot constantly anyway.

I think their prophet needs to have a dream where god urges him to accept gays rights. Kind of like they did with black people and also conveniently getting rid of polygamy when it was made illegal etc

If you're going after a single religious outfit for discriminating against homosexuals and women... well, you're forgetting about all of the other ones.

Might want to know what the Mormons have actually done and what a Monte did blindly following his church.

Yeah bro, I lived through 2008 too.

Good then you realize how stupid your statement was.

vajohna 12-02-2012 07:53 PM

Don't be a cunt.

There's a fair bit of evidence that higher black turnout in '08 because of candidate Obama's run aided the passage of Prop. 8. I suppose you blame them as much. All sorts of social change is, has, and will always be, opposed by so-called "religious" institutions. You're not going to change anybody's opinions on a message board by posting links to four year Los Angeles Times articles. You're not educating anyone. You're just being a dick because Monte doesn't believe what you do and he makes himself an easy target. Accept that you're morally right - what the Mormon church does is crappy - and that he and his religious leaders will be on the wrong side of history on this issue.

Aaaaand my statement was correct anyway.

you know there are black gay people, right

vajohna 12-02-2012 08:55 PM

Yes. What I was indicating was that sufficient evidence exists that a significant percentage of black Americans strongly disagree with giving homosexuals the right to marry or for granting same-sex couples equal rights under the law. The age-old American practice of shitting on those struggling to be accepted after you yourself have struggled and overcome.

The confluence of events that led to passage of Prop 8 owes credit to many groups, not just the Mormons. No one group deserves all of the blame in this instance and certainly not one single person posting on a fansite's message board. Picking on Monte for his self-importance or his teacher's pet behavior is fair, but just spare us the religious attacks. You'll just look fucking pathetic.

You have this completely reversed

Welcome to my fucking idiot list

TuralyonW3 12-02-2012 09:36 PM

You're basically saying it's not ok to criticize mormon's for supporting prop 8. that it in fact makes you pathetic. Do I follow you?

Also fuck ANY religion that discriminates not must mormonism. FUCKING OBVIOUSLY FUCK

The more you say fuck and in ever-larger font makes me think you know what you're talking about though; good sell.

Then please make your point in a way that makes sense because that's exactly what I read from you.

So it IS ok to criticize Mormons for supporting prop 8? Please help me understand your wisdom.

I never said it wasn't okay to criticize the LDS church for its actions with regard to Proposition 8. What I'm saying is tarring and feathering an entire religion for taking a stance on something you don't agree with is lame. Plenty of Mormons are making the world a hell of a lot better place than the dicks that worked to get Proposition 8 passed, and almost certainly a better place than the majority of the people who frequent internet forums. As much as any religious institution would like to, they don't speak for every follower.

If you think Monte is an idiot for believing what his religious leaders believe, that's fine. I doubt the guy has really given it much thought, to be honest. I personally don't have a clue how anyone could justify denying the right of two people to legally marry under the law. It's totally crazy.

Monte actively campaigned for Prop 8...because his church told him to (and because he's too much of a bigot to disagree)

bs1933 12-02-2012 11:03 PM

I am always really surprised to find people here caring about gay rights. I would never have guessed.

I think that sucks and I hope he feels shame when his children find out what he did. I don't believe any god would agree with inhibiting the path to happiness of another of his or her children. I still sincerely doubt that he gave it much thought, which is the sad part.

I stand by what I said though - tarring and feathering the whole religion, given the real good that's done around the world by them, is wrong.

Fair enough. I hate Mormonism and most organized religion but that's another horse not worth beating.

Well lots of people will jump all over others for the smallest thing... It can get pretty hostile. It just seems like a subject matter that would make for an easy target.
