So then what we need is a definition of homophobia? Jeordam Send a noteboard - 13/12/2012 09:56:15 PM
Are we talking the state of not agreeing with a viewpoint, stance, conviction, or belief.....

Or talking about active *hate* of that viewpoint, stance, conviction, or belief and the people who support it?

There is a world of difference. On one hand, an individual disagrees with an ideal and on the other hand, an individual hate both the ideal and person.

WTF does "I don’t care what their intent was. I care what it was that they intended" mean? Joel - 11/12/2012 09:03:23 PM 554 Views
Yeah I read that twice to see if that was right *NM* Dark Knight - 11/12/2012 09:36:55 PM 269 Views
Part of me pities Scalias decline, because he could once nimbly and convincly argue black is white. Joel - 12/12/2012 07:09:56 PM 526 Views

I am aware of Scalias "logic," and his rejection of it about a year later with Robamacare. Joel - 16/12/2012 01:51:16 PM 540 Views

Your whole rant lacks any logic HyogaRott - 12/12/2012 03:46:34 PM 560 Views

I was stumped by his phrasing as well A Deathwatch Guard - 12/12/2012 09:31:53 PM 425 Views
But we must go by his words and his understanding of their meaning, without interpretation. Joel - 16/12/2012 01:40:23 PM 512 Views

Lol. Homophobia is synonymous w/ homonegativism. It's not meant to convey a true phobia *NM* kHz1000 - 13/12/2012 03:28:01 PM 333 Views

-phobe : Greek -phobos, adj. derivative of phóbos fear, panic HyogaRott - 13/12/2012 11:32:14 PM 562 Views
Do you have a similar problem with "xenophobia?" Because it's exactly the same thing. Ghavrel - 14/12/2012 01:30:24 AM 487 Views
xenophobia is the fear of the alien... WTF are you trying to say? HyogaRott - 14/12/2012 03:03:09 AM 552 Views
No. You are patently, objectively incorrect. Ghavrel - 14/12/2012 08:39:00 AM 479 Views

Don't believe me, ask a Greek it is after all THEIR word. I gave you some extra capitals, happy now? *NM* HyogaRott - 14/12/2012 02:56:09 PM 336 Views

Hmmmm lets see, people misuse a word, perverting its meaning... HyogaRott - 14/12/2012 07:29:11 PM 497 Views
If everyone "misuses" a word, that becomes an acceptable use of it. Ghavrel - 14/12/2012 10:14:23 PM 518 Views

and if everryone jumps off a cliff to splatter on the rocks I should just be a good little lemming. HyogaRott - 15/12/2012 07:13:27 AM 439 Views
actually, you have already chosen stupid by pretending the word means something it does not moondog - 15/12/2012 03:34:35 PM 451 Views
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA, my friend John would strenuously disagree. HyogaRott - 16/12/2012 06:50:19 AM 574 Views
and you are a small-minded buffoon who can't come up with real arguments so you resort to nitpicking moondog - 17/12/2012 11:48:25 PM 498 Views
Double post. *NM* Ghavrel - 14/12/2012 10:14:50 PM 238 Views
